The '''Void's Tear''' is a special [[Type-54 plasma pistol|Type-54D Directed Energy Pistol]].<ref name="H5G">'''''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''''' - ''[[Multiplayer]]''</ref>

The ''Void's Tear'' is a named variant of the T-54D DEP, upgraded to fire overcharged shots that spawn an unstable gravimetric vortex at the point of impact, which pulls in nearby objects and then explodes. Its normal shots also have a knockback effect on weapons and other small objects upon hitting them. It was created through superheated exotic nuclear isomers.<ref name="REQ"/>

In late [[2558]], the ''Void's Tear'' was integrated into the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}'s [[War Games]] simulations for use by [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan-IVs]].<ref name="H5G"/>

The ''Void's Tear'', a Level 4 Rare Power Weapon REQ, is the advanced variant of the Plasma Pistol. It operates exactly identically to the Plasma Pistol except that its overcharged shots conjure an unstable gravimetric vortex upon impact that has a radius of 8.05 meters and pulls in nearby objects before exploding for further damage. The EMP effect and vehicular stopping power of the ''Void's Tear'' are also stronger compared to the Plasma Pistol, making it capable of stopping a full-speed [[550 Scuderia StarSpeed M-12R|Rally Warthog]] dead in its tracks and even launching light vehicles into the air. On the other hand, the gravimetric vortex can be extremely dangerous if trapped in, making the use of grenades extremely dangerous. The ''Void's Tear''{{'}}s normal shots do more damage than the normal Plasma Pistol but less than the ''[[Spitfire]]'', killing a full shield, full health Spartan in [[seven]] shots. Overall, the ''Void's Tear'' is an effective weapon against infantry and air vehicles, especially bosses in air vehicles. It has the same overall range as a normal Plasma Pistol: 30.50 m (100.07 ft) hipfired and 91.09 m (298.85 ft) with Smart-Link.<ref name="H5G-Aozolai">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGtTBySkpjk '''YouTube''' - ''Halo 5 | Plasma Pistols Analysis'']</ref>

In [[Warzone]] simulations, [[Unggoy Bodyguard]]s are seen with the ''Void's Tear'', making them the most dangerous of the [[Unggoy]] species (excluding the [[Goblin]]). When fighting Unggoy Bodyguards with a vehicle, it is highly recommended to have the Wheelman Armor Mod activated to be able to more quickly recover from the EMPs inflicted by their weapons.
