We can safely assume that the method she was using was the most efficient or expedient way to destroy the Vault. Zarpedon's been guarding the Vault since the Crackening occurred, and clearly possessed substantial knowledge about the Vault and its operations.The reason the beam looks like it is targeting different places is because you, the player, are moving around in relation to the laser and are seeing it from different angles. All this together means that Helios does not move about in relation to Elpis, and is in fact targeting roughly the same location for the entire game, specifically the large molten crater which Helios can be seen firing into while the player is aboard the station. Helios station is in a Lagrangian orbit between the two bodies, specifically the L1 point situated in the middle of the two. As seen and described in echos from the previous games, it is certain that Elpis is in a geosynchronous orbit as well as tidal locked with Pandora, meaning that it doesn't move or rotate in the sky when viewed from the surface of Pandora as seen in the games.If it was, it could shoot the same spot over and over again, digging it's way to the vault closer with each blast. All throughout the game we see that the Eye is blasting different areas of the moon, meaning that the space station isn't locked in geo-synchronous orbit with the moon.
