Briefing
It is uncertain how these small frigate-sized organisms managed to develop such powerful energy beams, but they are near-identical to Hive Entities' energy beams. Some proposed that the Hive Entities somehow spawned a part of themselves into a protolith, others suggest that the protolith itself acquired these more powerful offensive appendages from a Hive Entity. Either way, it can only support two of them, and it seems to have taxed their propulsion units similarily to the Spiral variant of the Protolith. It may be something to do with the energy required to maintain a high level of offensive appendages. Regeneration Rate 6
