&lt;div&gt;[[File:SpazerPlasmaVar.jpg|right|x200px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Chainsaw Beam&#039;&#039;&#039; is the combination of [[Wave Beam]], [[Spazer]], and [[Plasma Beam]] with [[Ice Beam]] unequipped; while [[Charge Beam]] can be equipped, charged shots might crash the game and some of the beam&#039;s potential are better exploited with it unequipped. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It can open doors and destroy destructible blocks that the Power Beam is normally capable of destroying. The Chainsaw Beam has a very high rate of fire, but has a very short range (hence the name), and doesn&#039;t have any visible effect or projectile. [[Damage]] from the beam is only dealt during a [[Power Bomb]] explosion, it deals 150 damage with a maximum of seven hits per explosion. It has the same damage type as [[Super Missile|Super Missiles]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To equip [[Spazer]] and [[Plasma Beam]] at the same time, open the inventory screen, equip Spazer, and move the marker to any of the [[Boots]] items. Then, press Left and A on the same frame. Plasma Beam should then become equipped alongside Spazer with &amp;quot;VAR&amp;quot; next to it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Power Bomb explosion ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While the Power Bomb explosion is happening, firing the Chainsaw Beam will&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* damage enemies susceptible to Supers near Samus&#039; arm cannon&lt;br /&gt;
* open Blue Doors and Blue Gates that the explosion is in contact with&lt;br /&gt;
* prevent Orange Doors to be opened by the explosion (blocks will still break)&lt;br /&gt;
* mess with the Power Bomb graphics and cause lag&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Without Power Bomb explosion ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just firing the Chainsaw Beam will&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* open Blue Doors and Blue Gates (including opening gates from the wrong side)&lt;br /&gt;
* break shootable blocks &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The above items consider: 1) near Samus&#039; arm canon; 2) for doors in the ceiling and blocks, any firing direction with the exception of aiming up.&lt;br /&gt;
