[Irradiated LeadIrradiated Lead]
Meltdown:

If the player also has [Big BoyBig Boy] , Gamma Ray branches twice to form a spread of 5 beams and using [Big BoyBig Boy] refills 100 ammo on the Gamma Ray. Ammo restoration only works if Gamma Ray is held when activating [Big BoyBig Boy] . Additionally this synergy also affects [Orbital BulletsOrbital Bullets] , creating several large rings that pull enemies toward the ring.

Trivia

  • Mean Green is a reference to The Hulk , who was transformed by exposure to gamma radiation.
  • Beta Ray synergy is likely a reference to beta decay particles.
  • Meltdown is the only Synergy not directly related to [Orbital BulletsOrbital Bullets] that directly alters its behavior.
  • The Gamma Ray bears some resemblance to the Laser Pistol from the Fallout series, specifically the AEP7 model that appears in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas . If the Beta Ray synergy with Irradiated lead is obtained, it changes to look like the AER9 [Laser RifleLaser Rifle] from the same games.
  • Fallout: New Vegas featured a special iteration of the [Laser RifleLaser Rifle] , the AER14 prototype, that, coincidentally, fired green lasers instead of the usual red.
  • Meltdown synergy can be a reference to the Meltdown perk from Fallout New Vegas .
