The '''plasma drill''', also called a '''mining laser''', is the sole armament of the [[Harvester]]s used by the [[Covenant remnant|post-war Covenant]]. It is primarily used as an excavation tool for the purposes of recovering Forerunner artifacts. | |||
==Design== | |||
The plasma drill fires a single greenish-yellow energy beam, similar to that of a [[focus cannon]]. At full power, the beam is capable of drilling through multiple layers of solid rock. | |||
==Operational history== | |||
During the [[Second Battle of Requiem]] in [[2558]], [[Fireteam Crimson]] used a captured Harvester's plasma drill to create an entrance in the side of the mountain where one of the Forerunner artifacts was hidden. <ref>'''Spartan Ops''', ''Episode 10, Chapter 5: "One Last Time"</ref> | |||
