Talk:Power drain

Were does it say its name in the leaked video? and I though that blue orb was a jump pad that unfolds, guess not.--The Chazz025 and Clan 19:46, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

The Gravity lift is a purple tube when lying on the ground, and it folds out flat when deployed.

Origin?
What is the origin of the Power Drainer? I've always thought it was brute tech, but most people think it's made by UNSC. I would say it's made by whichever group made the radar jammer and flare, as they have the same design. Which group made those, I don't know for sure. They seem like Brute tech though.Chris3145 03:04, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I think it looks Brutish. The Brutes are also, always the ones that use the Flare/Radar Jammer/Power Drain. But I don't think there's a source for their origin. Due to the Bubble Shield in constant Brute possession, it wouldn't be impossible for the Power Drain to be UNSC tech however. - TheLostJedi  12:13, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

Name Change?
In the tips that appear while waiting for a game in matchmaking, this item is referred to as the Power Drain. Is that enough to warrant a name change, or do we need a bit more?Chris3145 03:04, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I moved it, as the game, the instruction manual, and the official guide all refer to it as the Power Drain. --Coredesat 01:21, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Comment...
Technically, the Power Drainer drains shields, right?--SWME 15:59, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Power Drain
The real name is the Power Drain and the title of the page should be changed to such as to stop further confusion to new players as well as old.

Lethality
I don't think it kills you anymore as it did in the beta. Can someone confirm. --EliteSpartan My Talk My Contribs 20:16, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

It can if you're low on health and stand right next to it.

No, the explosion doesn't kill you.

Yeah it does. Omar-065

The explosion can kill you. Try again if you think otherwise. - TheLostJedi  12:07, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

EMP?
