Basic Characteristics
Beam, Cycle Beam, and Searing Beam are offensive, ranged Psynergies. The total amount of damage is determined by comparing the user's Mars Power to the target's Mars Resistance and using this value to modify the base power of the particular Psynergy.

Visually, each stage of the beam series the user charging a ball of flame, which then is fired in the form of a laser-like beam. Cycle Beam additionally features a shockwave that is released as the laser is fired. Searing Beam also features the shockwave, but adds a corkscrew-like burst of energy surrounding the laser.

Analysis
General:The Beam series is an excellent Psynergy series, possessing good power at each stage of the game, combined with a wide range to aid in flexibility. Thanks to these qualities, the Beam series is an excellent choice throughout the game. However, Searing Beam's high PP cost should be taken into account when it is used.

By Game
Beam is one of the game's best early techniques. It is equal in cost and range to Flare Wall, but is more powerful. Likewise, Cycle Beam is equal in power to Flare Storm, with Cycle Beam possessing a slightly higher cost but a wider range. Cycle Beam is an excellent option while exploring the Great Eastern Sea, and can be used effectively against the Aqua Hydra and Poseidon, alongside Serpent Fume. Searing Beam is one of Jenna's best endgame moves in her base class, and the only one that is ranged. Overall, the Beam series will be one of Jenna's most commonly used option.

Cycle Beam will be his most powerful ranged option. Cycle Beam's usage may be lower than in The Lost Age, since Eoleo also has an excellent physical elemental attack in Vicious Chop. Searing Beam is Eoleo's most powerful ranged Psynergy, and is useful for weakening multiple targets. However, Eoleo's lower PP pool means that Searing Beam many not see multiple uses in battle.
