I love it!
Luckily for me, my main got on Air Force One with Judd Hirsch.

The demo nerd in me wants to know what effect you used for the blast.

0   1701 FXSCALE 100.000000 10
0   1701 ORIGIN ENT 0 0
0   1701 TARGET ENT 1701 0

It looks even cooler when watching it in-game.

No idea if this ever got used in any missions. The only time I saw it done was during the beta "Immortal Game" event.

It comes from the Keyes Incarnate trial: its the Obliteration Beam.

"Devastation Beam"??? What an appropriate name. And what a cool shot; nice work!
I used CIT before they even joined the Titan network! But then I left for a long ol' time, and came back. Now I edit the wiki.

That '1701' in there reminds me of... something...

Lol didn't even notice that. I don't think the Rikti are using that kind of ship designation though.  :P
