===Brute sniper rifle===
The brute sniper rifle was going to be a weapon in ''Halo 5: Guardians'' that would have been a precision sniper rifle that was one of four brute weapons cut. The weapon holds 4 in its magazine, with a reverse of 12 rounds total of 16 rounds. The [[Blamite]] Needle fired from the sniper are the same model fired by the [[Type-33 needler|Needler]] though recoloured and made bigger, intended as a placeholder these rounds would explode after a few seconds after hitting the target, the explosion is not massive and likely only to hit the enemy if they stand on it or are impaled. It takes one body shot with explosion to drop spartan shields and another body shot to kill, while if hitting the head it is a one shot. With the sniper having a 3.5 second reload speed could ensure this would've been a deadly sniper if implemented in game.{{Ref/Reuse|GCREQs}}
The brute sniper rifle was going to be a weapon in ''Halo 5: Guardians'' that would have served the role of a precision sniper rifle. The weapon holds four rounds in its magazine, with an additional 12 rounds storage for a total capacity of 16 rounds. The [[Subanese crystal]] needle fired from the sniper is the same model fired by the [[Needler]], albeit recoloured and larger - intended as a placeholder. These rounds impale themselves in players and scenery upon impact and explode a few seconds after hitting their target, though the explosion is fairly small and likely only to hit the enemy if they stand atop the spike or are impaled. It takes one body shot with the explosion effect to drop a Spartan's  [[energy shielding]] and another body shot to kill, though headshots cause an instalkill. The Brute sniper rifle has a 3.5 second reload speed.{{Ref/Reuse|GCREQs}}

===Brute magnetic missile===
===Brute magnetic missile===
The brute magnetic missile was going to be a weapon in ''Halo 5: Guardians'' that would have been a rocket launcher that was one of four brute weapons cut. The weapon holds only 1 round in its magazine, with a reserve of 5 total of 6 rounds. The rocket fired from the gun is a shot that splits into five mid flight, which then explode after a few seconds and causes a emp to vehicles on impact. It can completely disable vehicles with one shot,  emping the vehicle, and can destroy a vehicle afterwards with the explosions. It only takes one shot to kill a fully shielded spartan. With the launcher having a 5 second reload speed this launcher would've been deadly to vehicles and Spartans if implemented.{{Ref/Reuse|GCREQs}}
The Brute magnetic missile was to serve as Brute-themed rocket launcher equivalent. The weapon holds only one round in its magazine, with a reserve of 5 rounds. The rocket fired from the weapon is a shot that splits into five smaller rounds mid-flight, which then proceed to arc downward explode after a few seconds after hitting the ground. The explosive effect of the projectiles cause an [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]] which can completely disable vehicles, alongside dealing heavy damage.{{Ref/Reuse|GCREQs}}


The magnetic missile can kill a Spartan in one shot, and has a reload speed of five seconds.{{Ref/Reuse|GCREQs}}

===Brute spiker===
===Brute spiker===
The brute spiker was going to be a weapon in ''Halo 5: Guardians'' that would have been like the [[Type-25 Spiker|Spiker]] though was one of four brute weapons cut. The weapon holds 30 rounds in its magazine, with a reserve of 80 total of 110 rounds. The [[Blamite]] needles fired from the Spiker are the same models fired by the [[Type-33 needler|Needler]], intended as a placeholder to represent the spikes fired from the Spiker. Although using the Needler's ammunition, the Spiker behaves as its ''Halo 3'' version, and has no lock on cabailities. It takes roughly twelve rounds to drop shields while hitting the body, and then six or more for the kill. With the spiker having a 1.5 seconds reload speed made sure this would've been a useful backup pistol.{{Ref/Reuse|GCREQs}}
The Brute spiker was a weapon presumably intended to bring the [[Type-25 Spiker]] previously featured in ''[[Halo 3]]'', ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'' and ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' into ''Halo 5: Guardians''. The weapon holds 30 rounds in its magazine, with a reserve of 80 for a total of 110 rounds. The weapon uses Blamite Needler rounds as a placeholder to represent the spikes and the model of the [[Z-110 Boltshot|Boltshot]] in lieu of a proper Spiker weapon model. Although using the Needler's ammunition, the Spiker behaves akin to its ''Halo 3'' incarnation, and has no lock on capabilities. It takes roughly twelve rounds to drop shields while hitting the body, and then six or more for the kill.{{Ref/Reuse|GCREQs}}
 
The Spiker has a 1.5 second reload speed.{{Ref/Reuse|GCREQs}}

===Brute gatling mortar===
===Brute gatling mortar===
The brute gatling mortar was going to be a weapon in ''Halo 5: Guardians'' that would have been a massive mortar held like the detachable [[turret]] the mortar was one of four brute weapons cut. The weapon holds no rounds and instead has a percentage of its ammo that doesn't run out, this shows that this weapon was partly being implemented, when it was scraped. The projectiles that are fired from the gun are fast firing explosives bolts. It takes only five of these rounds to drop a fully shielded spartan regardless of body shot or not. With no reload speed and its fast fire rate would've made this a deadly weapon if implemented.{{Ref/Reuse|GCREQs}}
Intended as the Brutes' [[support weapon]], the gatling mortar uses the model of the [[assault cannon]] as a placeholder. The weapon does not have an ammunition count, instead displaying the HUD icon for the [[Type-58 plasma cannon|plasma cannon]] and its ammo percentage meter. Despite the presence of this HUD element, the meter does not count down while firing, likely due to the weapon's unfinished nature. The projectiles that are fired from the gun are fast firing explosive bolts. It takes only five of these rounds to drop a fully shielded player, when hit anywhere on the body.{{Ref/Reuse|GCREQs}}


Interestingly, the gatling mortar has some broad similarities to the [[Scrap Cannon]] featured in ''[[Halo Infinite]]''.
