The '''Eklon'dal Workshop Mortar Tank''' is a modified {{Pattern|Muz|Wraith}} used by the [[Banished]].{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=468}}


==Overview==
The [[Banished]] utilize '''modified [[Wraith]]s'''<ref name="PL1">'''Halo Wars 2''', Phoenix Logs, Banished Units ''Wraith''</ref> with additional armor plating and spikes, tabbed corners on new plates, energy shielding, and raw metals and "war paint" to reflect the Banished's aggressive mentality.
===Design details===
 
{{Main|Muz-pattern Wraith}}
==Design details==
The Wraith designs built by the [[Eklon War-Forges]] are heavily modified {{Pattern|Muz|Wraith|}} designs originally employed by the [[Covenant]] empire. They feature additional armor plating and spikes, tabbed corners on new plates, [[energy shielding]], raw metals and "war paint" to reflect the Banished's aggressive mentality in comparison to older Covenant Wraiths.{{Ref/Reuse|PL1}}
===Creation===
The [[Banished Foundry|Foundry]]'s garage and its kit assembly line allows the requisition of a Banished Wraith.<ref name="PLF"/>
 
===Crew and complement===

===Armaments===
===Armaments===
Eklon'dal Workshop Wraiths are armed with a [[heavy plasma mortar]] and twin [[plasma cannon]]s for use against ground and air targets. The plasma cannons are hidden underneath the armor. The mortar can be upgraded to a [[scorch mortar]] on select vehicles.{{Ref/Reuse|PL1}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}

Improvements or alterations required layers of bureaucracy to navigate, and often took decades to gain approval from the Prophets. The Banished approval process is much simpler: if there is a demonstrated need and materials available a pack leader can make any changes that he or she wishes. The Wraith Invader is an example of this freedom, with Pavium taking damaged mortar tank hulls and repurposing them into heavy troop carriers.<ref name="BACK">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/back-mentality '''Halo Waypoint''' - ''Back Mentality'']</ref>

Wraiths can be built at the [[Banished Foundry|Foundry]] by all Banished [[leader]]s. Unlike its [[Covenant]] counterpart from ''Halo Wars'', the Banished Wraith in ''Halo Wars 2'' starts off with an energy shield by default. Wraiths do well against infantry and vehicles, and okay against aircraft and structures. In [[Blitz]] Wraiths cost {{HW2BlitzEnergy|110}} energy, Ironclad Wraiths cost {{HW2BlitzEnergy|140}} energy, and Terror Wraiths cost {{HW2BlitzEnergy|150}} energy. Ironclad Wraiths agro all nearby damage from enemy units and Terror Wraiths reduce enemy units armor.

This is one of the few vehicles of Covenant origin known to be submersible, with the others being the [[Type-47B Scarab|Type-47B]] and [[Banished Scarab|Banished]] Scarabs.{{Citation needed}}
