Talk:Pulse laser turret

hi my name is arbiter 32 and im still new here so i just try to correct grammatical statements. when it talked about the battle damage a pulse laser did to the Commonwealth it said UNSC frigate UNSC Commonwealth. So I tried to get rid of the second UNSC which was highlighted and when i removed it Commonwealth wasnt highlighted. I tried to fix it and now it is red can anyone help?

It's fixed now. Oh and sign your edits (on talk pages). Use the button third from the right, the one that looks like cursive. -- Lordofmonsterisland  "Roar to me"  01:30, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the help and the tip -- Arbiter32 02:27, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

does anyone else think that the blue blasts of light during the first level of H1 and the cutscene afterwards were pulse lasers?

 * No. Those were Plasma Torpedoes, because pulse lasers are beams (see the Halo 2 Cutscene at the end of Cairo.)  Specops306 ,  Kora 'Morhek  04:45, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Deleted some speculation about yield. Unfortunately, we know too little about Titanium-A to make any assumptions of any kind.  Specops306 ,  Kora 'Morhek  04:45, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Are you sure that is a pulse laser? I all ways thought it was an energy projector. 66.82.9.82 06:46, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Pulse Lasers DO NOT have to charge.
In Halo: First Strike, Cortana found out that pulse lasers are always charged, but have an ineffective cooling system. --Natdogg1 19:22, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Regarding the above posts, I always thought that was an energy projector also. Pulse lasers aren't effective versus larger vessels, yet this beam clearly guts a Marathon-class cruiser. Therefore it probably is not a laser and could be an energy projector.

I'm pretty sure that that beam is an energy projector. Its similair to the beams the cruisers fire when they glass Voi, and I think the books refrence pulse lasers as flashes of light that take out incoming missles. I always imagined them as little bursts of energy and on the weaker end of the covenant arsenal. ProphetofTruth 19:10, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

im confused
I thorght the laser was a covey wepon and that humans could not use lazers till halo 3. how did it end up on the prowlers. themaskedidiot


 * Heck, we have lasers today. The US army is using them in Iraq and Afghanistan to Blow Stuff Up. They're just horribly complicated and wasteful.  Specops306 ,  Kora 'Morhek  20:00, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

Shields
Why does the Covenant ship's shield have to drop to let the pulse laser fire? If I remember correctly, the Deployable Cover equipment from Halo 3 is a one-way shield. If the Covenant have this technology, why can't they incorporate it into theit starship shielding? That way they wouldn't have to be vulnerable while they're firing their weapons.

the deployable cover is only one-way for ballistic (human) weapons.

and I agree, this pic could be for an energy progector.--Blackout131 03:43, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Pulse laser on the Prowler a Covenant weapon? I think not.
There seems to be a lot of people saying that the Humans adapted Covenant technology and mounted pulse lasers on ONI ships. I feel that mention of this anywhere should be removed, as it is purely speculation. We have no facts to support it, and the simple truth that we use pulse lasers today, even, shows it is most likely to be a UNSC developed armament. The spartan laser, for example, would be a pulse laser, probably developed by UNSC scientists, without using any Covenant technology at all. Just because the two races have the same weapon, doesn't mean only one of them designed it.

I'm not discounting that UNSC scientists adapted the Covenant version, but I am pointing out that it is more likely that it wasn't. Diaboy 15:31, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
