Positron Stream is a weapon introduced in Ultimate Omelette. It's another auto-locking weapon that bears some similarities to the Plasma Rifle.

Strategy

It fires a continuous stream of positrons. When non-powered, it provides the most damage out of any weapon. It's quickly superseded by other weapons as power increases, however. It locks onto the nearest enemy. Its focused power quickly generates heat, so make sure you fire it in short bursts for maximum efficiency.

It's available from Chapter 3 in Ultimate Omelette and unlocked in Universe at tier 5.

Pros

  • Auto-locks on enemies.
  • Deals more continuous damage compared to other weapons and it's competitors on the lowest power level. On top of having high damage per-second.
    • On top of continuous damage, it's beam is capable of chaining onto additional targets in Chicken Invaders Universe. Helping to clear groups of enemies more quickly while remaining precise. Damage does reduce as additional targets are being hit by the chain, however.

Cons

  • Quickly Overheats.
  • Poor damage scaling compared to other weapons at every power level.
  • Very heavy weight.

It's a member of the Special group, so it has its weaknesses and strengths.

Trivia

  • The internal name for this weapon's files is "crazy beam", referencing the bending abilities of the stream.
  • The Positron Stream gets it name from the Positron. Which is also known as the "Antielectron". Or in other terms, the antiparticle or antimatter counterpart to the electron.
  • The weapon description in Universe references Ghostbusters’ proton pack.
