''Krith's Left Hand'' is, all in all, suitable only for anti-infantry roles. While its three-round bursts can easily kill or remove the [[energy shielding|shields]] of enemy Spartans, the weapon is burdened by its high REQ requirements (Legendary rarity, Level 7 energy) and low accuracy at higher ranges, thus making weapons like the [[M395 DMR#M395B Designated Marksman Rifle|DMR]] and [[Z-750 binary rifle|Binary Rifle]] better choices. | ''Krith's Left Hand'' is, all in all, suitable only for anti-infantry roles.
