Needler - Halo 4

Needler

The Needler is a scary weapon in open or contained spaces. Each shot is fairly weak on it's own, however once several shards strike a target, a super-combine explosion destroys it's victim. This lethal effect and the natural ability of the shards to home-in on their target, makes the Needler an effective short to mid-range power weapon, especially if used in areas with very little cover. The Needler's design remains the same. Being an automatic power weapon, however, means the user can hold down the trigger to launch a flurry of projectiles simultaneously.

Plasma Pistol - Halo 4

The Covenants plasma pistol has been synonymous with grunts and jackals as their main users. Whilst being able to fill the air with several of these, as a solo user the secondary fire mode allows you to charge up a shot, which can eradicate shielding entirely. This charge shot has the inherent homing ability, which veers the projectile towards the intended target. Quite simply this weapon is weak when fired normally, but it's secondary function charge shot is devastating when used in combination with a Pistol or Battle Rifle.
