Void ray/Development

The void ray is a unit in StarCraft II.

The Flux Vanes ability was removed in patch 1.2.

The void ray's attack increased in power the longer it remained trained on a target, but switching targets automatically reset the attack's power.

Beta Development
Prior to April 2010, the void ray had three levels of attack. StarCraft II beta patch #8 reduced the number of levels to two.

Heart of the Swarm
In beta patch #8, the void ray's Prismatic Beam no longer charges up, the cooldown of the weapon was improved, and it no longer did bonus damage to massive units. Instead, the Prismatic Alignment upgrade increased damage to armored units by 6 for 20 seconds, with a 1 minute cooldown, and this does no stack with upgrades.
