The Particle Beam (灼熱粒子砲 Shakunetsu Ryuushi Hou, roughly "Incandescent Particle Battery") is an area in Mega Man Zero 4. It is a large solar-powered particle beam cannon that was placed at point A-4 in Mega Man Zero 4 by Weil's army. It can fire intermittent laser beams used to destroy the surroundings. Zero is sent to stop it before the cannon is in Area Zero's range, defeating Heat Genblem.
Layout[]
The weather of the stage can be set to sunny or overcast.

Zero heading towards the direction of the barrel.
The first part of the stage is fairly straightforward, the only real difficulty comes from the mini-boss, Spy Larue F.
After destroying the midboss, the second part has the player travelling through the barrel of the cannon. Periodically, a massive surge of solar energy will transverse to the left side of the screen. Contact with the beam deals heavy damage, destroying any enemies in the way, although it is not a instant kill. There are also some safe spots so the player can dodge the beams safely while destroying the enemies.
Mission - Cut the Power[]
Mission brief: Rouge: A large particle beam has been placed at point A-4 by Weil's army. It fires intermittent laser beams destroying everything in the area. It appears to be solar powered. Soon, it'll be within firing range of Area Zero. Cut the power supply to the particle beam before Area Zero comes into its range.
- (If the weather is set to Overcast)
- Rouge: Since the weather is overcast, the beam is not charging at 100% capacity. This may be your chance to strike. This mission?
- (In the mission): Rouge: Zero! We can't stop that particle beam from the outside! Infiltrate it and stop it from the inside! I'm scanning for a way inside.
- Zero: That's okay... I'll just go in through the barrel.
- Rouge: That's way too dangerous!
- Zero: It looks like it is charging up... There's no time. Commencing mission!
