The T50 DER/H fires explosive bolts of superheated [[plasma]]. When the plasma bolt hits a surface, it produces area-of-effect damage and a small "kick" to users and objects. It also has a slight downward arc to its shots. The weapon has only seen limited use, its most notable combat use being in the [[Fall of Reach]]. Because of its relative rarity, the UNSC has theorized that its use is restricted either by branch or unit. | The T50 DER/H fires explosive bolts of superheated [[plasma]].
