Beam splitter

Legends Canon version → Linked from 13 articles

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

The beam splitter was a firing chamber customization for many blaster weapons that significantly broadened the energy beam, on a greater scale than the amplifying chamber, resulting in increased damage. The Mark I, II, and III versions in turn allowed for considerable boosts in the potential for injury from the plasma energy. A jury-rigged version of the beam splitter employed three beam gems salvaged from navigation computers and installed in the barrel of the blaster.
