Beam Cannon (enemy)

The Beam Cannon, also known as the Beamer or MachCannon, is an enemy from Final Fantasy IV. It appears within the Giant of Bab-Il and the Lunar Ruins.

Final Fantasy IV


At the time they are encountered Beam Cannons are not particularly tough. Their Beam attack will hit for 1/10 of the character's max HP, and they can be easily defeated using Rydia to summon Leviathan or casting Thundaga.

The Beam Cannon in the 3D versions are slightly tougher. Beam deals 1700+ damage, no longer relative to a character's max HP, and it will take more than one Thundaga attack to defeat them.

Final Fantasy IV: The After Years
Beam will only deal moderate non-elemental damage, and when damaged by Lightning-elemental spells, it will 'malfunction' and may start attacking its own party.
