  • A beam installed on the Cardianon mothership's outer circumference. It can detect any object within 100km of the ship, disable its control engines, and use gravitational polarization to pull it into a holding dock located along the edge of the ship.
  • Skill Needed to Use: Pilot >> Access to Level 4 Ship Equipment Certification This is a beam weapon used for pulling in small, broken up asteroid chunks. The crafted version of a tractor beam has been found to work MUCH more reliably than the quested version, through extensive testing.
  • Tractor Beam was a party room added for the Star Wars Takeover. You could get there from either the Detention Block (right door) or the Trash Compactor (left door). It had the tractor beam in the room (located on the walkway).
  • A tractor beam was an attenuated graviton beam used by starships and space stations to control the movement of foreign objects. Tractor beams were used in combat or to tow other starships. A variant of the tractor beam was known as a trocktor beam, which was a grappling hook made up of vines. (Stone Trek)
  • [[Tiedosto:Maktar8.jpg|thumb|Ratchet käyttää Tractor Beamia Maktar Nebulassa]]Tractor Beam on Ratchet & Clank 2: Going Commandossa oleva vempain.

Tractor Beamin saa Oozla-planeetalla.
  • A tractor beam was a device with the ability to attract one object to another from a distance. Tractor beams could be used to drag a ship, but in the early 20th Century PD, they found much more frequent use in towing a warships missile pods into battle. People's Navy battleships had a much greater tractor capability than other classes. (HH8)
  • Tractor Beam is an extra in the Lego Star Wars games. When turned on, in vehicle missions, all enemies that get too close to you will be sucked up behind you by a beam, where they will be vulnerable to shoot at.
  • Gadgeteering - Reverse Repel
  • A device mounted on Alliance ships, such as the Tohoku-class cruiser, utilized gravitic technology to pull smaller ships in, similar to the magnetic grappler used by the Reavers. Serenity found itself on the wrong end of such a beam when an Alliance cruiser ran into it with illegally scavenged cargo and a Reaver survivor on board.
  • Reduce one enemy's movement
  • Tractor Beam (Dt.: Traktorstrahl) ist ein Zauber.

  • The Tractor Beam was a MegaCorp gadget prototype manufactured on Oozla by a scientist. It was a close range gadget and pulled certain objects with a special marking on it towards Ratchet, allowing him to move them around. It also 'propelled' grenades and even robots that had said marking on them.
  • It first appeared in Star Ocean: Fantastic Space Odyssey as Ronyx J. Kenny's and Ioshua Jerand's symbol. In the PSP remake, both characters have their symbology list revised and Tractor Beam was removed from their move list. Tractor Beam was added into Millie Chliette symbology list instead. This spell makes another appearance in Star Ocean: The Second Story and its PSP remake as one of Rena Lanford's attack symbol. It was first aligned to Star element in The Second Story and changed to non-elemental in the remake.
  • Tractor beams were a form of technology which allowed larger vessels to capture smaller objects. The Nihr'Vash housed a tractor beam.
  • The beam was a projected force field that could move or immobilize matter at a distance. It was usually used to move starships around in space, to guide them safely into landing bays, and then to board them and kill everyone. The Millennium Falcon was once captured in a tractor beam and brought inside the Death Star, but Han Solo could have avoided it by modifying his deflector array to emit a polarized antigraviton beam, but he hated Star Trek more than Palpatine, so he didn't know how to do that. Tractor beams could not be used in agriculture or moisture farming. Don't be a moron.
  • The Charge Beam, in the Prime series, comes with a tractor beam effect, which can be used to attract pickups, be it Energy Capsules or ammunition, and this is helpful to Samus Aran, as she may be in the midst of battle and in need of pickups, and be unable to reach them safely. At the end of Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, the tractor beam plays its largest role, in collecting Phazon particles to fire back at Dark Samus.
  • ATTACK: Attack 1 ship. If this attack hits, the defender receives 1 tractor beam token. Then cancel all dice results.
  • The Fourth Doctor used his TARDIS' gravity tractor beam to hold a neutron star still while Erato used his ship to weave a protective shell around it. In the process, the tractor beam burned out (TV: The Creature from the Pit), remaining inoperative into at least the Doctor's eighth incarnation (PROSE: The Taking of Planet 5). It had been repaired by the Doctor's tenth incarnation when he used it to save the Sanctuary Base 6 rocket from a black hole. (TV: The Satan Pit) The Doctor's TARDIS could create a smaller tractor beam with the help of the Master's laser screwdriver. (GAME: TARDIS)
  • Throughout most of its appearances, Tractor Beam lifts the enemy into the air before dropping them down. In some games, such as Tales of Phantasia, flying enemies are immune to this by default. Arche Klein is immune to it as well, due to her flying on her broom in battle. There is also the "Stone" item that makes the user immune to the spell.
  • Tractor beams were generally only used at sub-warp velocities. To safely tow a vessel at warp speed, the target vessel's engines had to be deactivated to avoid shearing forces against towing vessel. A tractor beam could be used at warp speed only if both vessels' speeds were exactly matched. (VOY: "Day of Honor", "Renaissance Man"; TNG: "Final Mission" , "The Emissary" ) A low frequency tractor beam projected against a planet's tectonic plates was capable of producing minor earthquakes. (TNG: "Devil's Due" )
  • Tractor beams are generally only used at sub-warp velocities. To safely tow a vessel at warp speed, the target vessel's engines must be deactivated to avoid shearing forces against towing vessel. Using a tractor beam can be done at warp speed only if both vessels' speeds are exactly matched.
  • The Tractor Beam is a standard piece of equipment for ships in the Sirius Sector, and allows one to "vacuum up" loot dropped by enemy ships, found while salvaging wrecks, or farmed from asteroid belts and scrap fields. Tractor Beams only work on objects within approximately 1,500 m. The default button to activate the Tractor Beam is "B".
  • The use of tractor beams was generally restricted to sublight velocities. However, tractor beams could be safely used to tow objects at warp speed, but only if both vessels were traveling at exactly the same speed. Because of the risk involved when engaging tractor beams at warp, Federation starships restricted its use. (TNG episodes: "Final Mission", "The Emissary") Tractor beams may also be used in pressor mode, to push an object instead of pulling it. The USS Titan used this in an attempt to push an asteroid off of its course towards the planet Droplet. (TTN novel: Over a Torrent Sea)
