Prometheus Lens Guide
Flame Refraction
Flame Refraction

Kills with this weapon return a fraction of the ammo used to the magazine from reserves, extending the beam's duration.

Prismatic Inferno
Prismatic Inferno

Fires a Solar trace beam that creates a field of heat energy that grows as the weapon is fired. Sustained damage applies scorch to the target.

With having Incandescent, a top perk for clearing out groups of enemies, Prometheus Lens is a great option to use as a primary weapon. Despite using Special Ammo, the weapon has enough reserves to utilize it as a main weapon, and if using a Special Ammo weapon in the Kinetic weapon slot, Special Ammo will drop more frequently. The longer this weapon is fired, the more damage it deals so it is recommended to hold down fire and get kills on weaker enemies as final blows with the weapon partially reload some of the magazine. The damage increase from sustained fire also makes this weapon a good option for dealing damage to Champions and mid health targets.
