A turret killing a grunt.
This small robotic turret is Forerunner technology found on the Ark and resembles a stripped down Sentinel. It fires a thin, blue beam at enemies. This device is extremely adept at targeting and destroying Flood of all kinds, although it can be used to kill Covenant forces as well. It is extremely powerful and will kill a fully-armored brute in two shots.
Disadvantages
Due to programming issues, the turret has major problems picking out targets and more often follows allies with its targeting system, and does not fire.
Trivia
- This piece of equipment is unavailable in custom games, matchmaking or Forge.
- If these turrets are deployed before the destruction of 343 Guilty Spark in the level Halo and survive, they will attack you, taking out the player's shields on Normal difficulty or killing the player in one shot on Heroic and higher difficulty.
