📋 About This Mod
This mod changes the legendary effects glow to the red alien ship beam for any legendary enemies. This is just replacing the original green glow animation that legendaries are supposed to emit, so it may or may not work. But that's just part of the game.
Update : I added legendarybeamxl.ba2 which is the same beam but 10x scale. The result is a larger beam.
Shoutout to GlitchUnlimited for similar mod with diffrent animation. Go check it out.
