I'm okay with Status Effect Inducement "Stun" via Wave Beam being added then (5-B tab I guess?)
 
Also, shouldn't MP have high regen as well? It regenerated after being exploded by the amounts of phazon samus shot at it, and came back from a small puddle of phazon.
 
Metroid Prime's Core Essence was defeated by being overloaded with Phazon, so it was able to survive by absorbing even more Phazon from Samus' suit. That sounds sort of counterintuitive unless MP reconstituted itself before it's essence was destoryed and turned itself into Dark Samus/something else... or something. I guess that's like the Morph Ball and I'm not supposed to think about it too hard?
 
I don't really see the problem there. The fact that it regenerated again and again in very similar circumstances should mean that the first one was no different.
 
Looking at this video I just see a flashing light at the end. But yeah, I do remember the puddle of phazon being a thing even in Prime 1, so Low-High at bare minimum seems reasonable for Prime Core's regen.
 
I'm still really iffy with Tech Negation from the Volt Driver, it should instead Status Effect Inducement as the weapon doesnt outright negate tech and the effect just last for a couple of seconds.
 
I mean, if we were to put it as status effect inducement it would still be tech negation. Not to mention how long it negs tech doesn't influence what the ability is.
 
As for the regen, we don't know if it would count as due to the unstabling of MP or because it was trying to fuse with Samus' DNA.
 
Well remember that DS has been overloaded before with phazon, and disintegrated because of it, only to come back not to long after.
 
Yes, which should be good for Dark Samus, not Metroid Prime. (Not to mention DS when overloaded become particles, Metroid Prime is a puddle, which might suggest it wasn't an overload)
 
Well it's not as good as DS' regen, but it's at least some explanation on how it was able to return after blowing up.
 
Like I said above, not sure if it is regen or just MP incorporating Samus' DNA.
 
As far as the Volt Driver goes, it fires a blast of multi-Terrawatt energy. I'm not sure any kind of tech that won't get negated if not destroyed outright. Then again, when Samus and the other Hunters (going off of multiplayer anyway) are hit by the Volt Driver, their visor goes fuzzy for a few seconds and that's it, kind of like what the Prime 2 Pirate Commando EMP Grenades did to Samus.
 
It's also somewhat similar to the drones and Bombus in MP1 where they try to screw with Samus' vision when near her.
 
it's still the same thing. You're altering the subatomic structure of the target by destroying it.
 
No, its not the same thing, you are not altering the structure of matter by just destroying it, unless yo can rearrange the matter in something else.
 
Light Suit Samus destroys matter via Annihilator Beam/Anti-Matter.
 
She also absorbs energy after destroying the enemies she defeats.
 
"The Annihilator Beam fires streams of light and dark energy. This Beam can seek single or multiple enemy targets. Press GC C-stick down/Hold Wii + button and point up to select the Annihilator Beam as your active weapon."

"Samus's Notes When out of Light and Dark Ammo, you can charge the Annihilator Beam to fire a normal shot. The Annihilator Beam has a high-powered sonic aspect when fired, which can be used to manipulate sonic-powered devices. Annihilator Beam shots are very effective against both light and dark enemies. Charge the Annihilator Beam to fire a Disruptor blast. The Disruptor costs 5 Dark Ammo and 5 Light Ammo to fire."

It doesnt says anything about converting matter into energy.
 
It doesn't apply to the Annihilator Beam specifically. She Literally does absorb energy from various enemies she destroys regardless of what weapon she uses.
 
Then what does it has to do with this?

Absorbing energy from enemies doesn't translate in to manipulating matter, at all.
 
It is specifically written down as resistance to destruction on that level. Not manipulating it.
 
Though, what ability would transforming an entire planet into pure energy and the using it to fused two planets together be treated as? I know that's super advanced energy manipulation calc'd at being high up on Small Star level, but isn't that also technically matter manipulation?

Looks like it is written as manipulation.
 
@New no it is not. It is linked to Matter Manipulation given it is a sub-set but it is not stated to be a resistance to matter manipulation as a whole.

@Dark not sure, though its not Samus' ability.
