==Phantom Gun==

Looking through the game files reveals that [[Sacred Icon]] contains a weapon aptly called the "phantom turret" as well as a file for a handheld version of it. <ref>https://youtu.be/8R6WsIT8QzI?t=2731</ref> It is not normally found on the level and can thus only be wielded by using mods. Just like the [[Scarab Gun]] the weapon appears as an ordinary plasma rifle that does not overheat and has a full, unlimited battery. The weapon fires shots like those of a Phantom's [[Heavy plasma cannon|cannons]], a [[Type-27_Shade|Shade turret]], or a [[Type-29_Shadow|Shadow's]] [[Class-1_directed_energy_cannon#Type-29_Anti-Infantry_Weapon_Emplacement.2FMounted|turret]] but at an immediately higher rate. ~~This weapon would thus be the Plasma Rifle half of~~ the BR-PR ~~leaving~~ it ~~unclear what function~~ the ~~Battle Rifle plays in~~ the ~~assembly~~.

When looking in the game files, battle rifle in BR-PR actually works as a scenery object. This battle rifle is not actually a battle rifle,it is just an object used to hold the phantom plasma rifle. Without the battle rifle the plasma rifle would fall.

Curiously a separate but completely identical weapon called the "big needler" exists in the game files of the levels [[Outskirts]] and [[Delta Halo (level)|Delta Halo]].
