From the opening in between the Sentinels Path and Watch Station Access, follow the Spider Tracks path until you get to the Kinetic Orb Cannon. Use it to launch you towards a wall of Spider Tracks. You’ll need to follow the path until you arrive at the uppermost Morph Ball tunnel. Follow it to get the Beam Expansion.

Beam Ammo Expansion #4

Use your Echo Visor in conjunction with your Annihilator Beam to unlock the sonic barrier door that stands between you and the Expansion. Once the door has been lowered, head over and claim your prize.
