This article is about the glitched Sentinel in Halo 2. For the Enforcer's weapon, see pulse beam.
The Needler Sentinel.

The Needler Sentinel is a Sentinel variant that can be found on the Halo 2 campaign level Quarantine Zone.

Overview

Unlike other Sentinels found in the game, this Sentinel fires Needler rounds rather than the conventional Sentinel beam and when destroyed, drops a Needler.

This variant was supposed to make an appearance in the game. It was removed permanently from the finalised version of Halo 2.[1] However, one tag remained within the game, due to oversight by Bungie staff.[2]
