343 Guilty Spark has been seen using five known weapons. The first, shown in [[Floodgate]], is a red beam that is similar to, but more powerful than, [[Sentinel Beam]] -- the beam is powerful enough to mortally wound [[Sergeant]] [[Avery Junior Johnson|Johnson]] and completely drain the [[Master Chief]] and the Arbiter's shields. The second weapon is a force field projector that repels objects; it was likely meant to be used when overwhelmed by Flood. The Monitor is also equipped with a third weapon, which is a thin blue laser that can unlock doors on [[The Ark (Level)|The Ark]] and deliver a painful but non-fatal electrical shock or laser burn. The fourth is a similar variant, being a white laser that can be used to levitate and manipulate objects, which Spark used to the Separatists’ benefit at Earth by repairing the [[Covenant Storage Device]] containing Cortana’s message.

The final known weapon that the Monitor used is an unusual beam resembling blue electricity which was used by Spark at the [[Pillar of Autumn]] to download data from the ship’s databases into Spark’s own files, allowing him to shut down the ship’s countdown sequence and delay the activation of its reactor. | ||

*In the [[Halo (Halo 3 Level)|final level]] of [[Halo 3]], if you let 343 Guilty Spark live at the point where it looks like he will blow up, he will make random statements such as Gollum's catchphrase from Lord of the Rings: "My Precious!" This is likely because Halo is also a "ring of great power", just like the Great Ring that Gollum possessed. Other similarities to the lord of the rings include that Guilty spark is an ally for most of the third game, but turns against the main characters at the end, dying to try and stop the protagonists from destroying his beloved ring. | *In the [[Halo (Halo 3 Level)|final level]] of [[Halo 3]], if you let 343 Guilty Spark live at the point where it looks like he will blow up, he will make random statements such as Gollum's catchphrase from Lord of the Rings: "My Precious!"
