Gravity cannon

The gravity cannon is a powerful energy weapon integrated into the gravity thrones of the Covenant's Hierarchs.

Two cannons are mounted on the front of the Hierarch's gravity throne. It is similar to the assault cannon wielded by the Mgalekgolo, in that it fires a continuous beam that can blast away intervening obstructions and can be fatal even to a fully shielded Spartan. The weapon is also similar in function to the armament of Forerunner Sentinels, perhaps suggesting that the Covenant reverse-engineered the weapon from this technology.
