The '''Sicatt Workshop Volt Caster''',{{Ref/Reuse|EN}} or '''Disruptor''', is an [[Voltaic weaponry|electricity-based weapon]] utilized by the [[Banished]] during the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]]. {{Ref/Site|Id=Support|URL=https://support.halowaypoint.com/hc/en-us/articles/6882880281364-Halo-Infinite-Weapon-Equipment-and-Vehicle-Inventory-|Site=Halo Support|Page=Halo Infinite Weapon, Equipment, and Vehicle Inventory|D=05|M=05|Y=2023}}{{Ref/Game|Id=HI|HI|gameplay}}

==Overview==
===Design details===
The volt caster is a pistol of [[Jiralhanae]] design, created by the [[Sicatt Workshop]] and manufactured by the [[Armory of Reckoning (location)|Armory of Reckoning]]. The weapon is designed to fire in a full automatic mode of fire, discharging a small active-dynamo munition capable of attaching to surfaces, including infantry and vehicles. Once attached, the bolts discharge a high-output current to their target, which are capable of incapacitating and immobilizing enemy targets. Should several individual bolts become attached to the same target in a close enough vicinity to one another, they are capable of detonating in a “supercombine” manner similar to that of [[needle-based weaponry]]—causing a large shock explosion capable of incapacitating infantry and disabling technology via an [[electromagnetic pulse]].{{Ref/Reuse|EN}}{{Ref/Reuse|forge}}

The top-mounted magazine of the disruptor holds ten bolts before needing to reload.{{Ref/Reuse|EN}}

===Usage===
The Disruptor was used by [[Banished]] forces on [[Installation 07|Zeta Halo]] during their [[Battle for Zeta Halo|long-term occupation]] of the ringworld. Banished forces typically find the weapon's main use in infiltration [[pack]]s-with scout forces using them to disable enemy technology for long enough durations as to allow regular shock troops to overrun them.{{Ref/Reuse|EN}}

===Variants===
*'''[[Calcine Disruptor]]''': A modified variant of the Disruptor that fires delayed detonation rounds, though with a decreased magazine capacity from 10 to 7.{{Ref/Game|HINF|[[Forge]] - Calcine Disruptor description|Quote=Modified with delayed detonation rounds.}} Unlike the normal Disruptor, the Calcine variant can disable any vehicle in one shot. During the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]], the [[Unggoy]] known as [[Bipbap]] carried a Calcine Disruptor.{{Ref/Reuse|HI}}

==Gameplay==
===''Halo Infinite''===
{{Article quote|Short to mid range weapon that deals damage over time.{{Ref/Game|HI|Academy - Weapon Drills - Disruptor description}}}}
The Disruptor is a fully-automatic pistol that deals shock damage like the [[Dynamo grenade]]s and the [[Sicatt Workshop shock rifle]]. Although the individual rounds deal a little damage to a target, 3 shots to the same target initiates a DOT (damage over time) effect that drains shields first before draining health. The weapon is also capable of disabling vehicles after seven hits have been landed on a given target. In the campaign, the Disruptor is wielded by high ranking [[Unggoy]], [[Kig-Yar]], and used as a backup weapon for [[Jiralhanae Sniper]]s. In multiplayer, the Disruptor is capable of killing an enemy Spartan in 6 shots.

With the May 10, 2023 update, the DOT was removed from multiplayer {{Ref/Site|URL=https://support.halowaypoint.com/hc/en-us/articles/15218713612564-Halo-Infinite-Update-May-10-2023|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Halo Infinite Update - May 10 2023|D=10|M=05|Y=2023}} before it was readded and now requires 4 shots to initiate the DOT on Spartans. It also now has 12 shots before it needs to be reloaded.
