The Sentinel beam was designed to effectively destroy Flood biomatter, and is intended for use against minor Flood outbreaks. Although the weapon is integrated into an Aggressor's structure, a limited internal power supply allows it to function independently if its wielder is destroyed. However, when it is not hooked up to an Aggressor, its battery life is very short. The weapon projects a yellow-orange or blue beam of superheated particles, which is capable of effectively cutting through and burning organic matter. | The Sentinel beam was designed to effectively destroy Flood biomatter, and is intended for use against minor Flood outbreaks.

Two variants of the Sentinel beam are seen: the standard yellow-orange one in the silver housing, and the more powerful blue beam, which is encased in a gold housing.<ref name="h2"/> | Two variants of the Sentinel beam are seen: the standard yellow-orange one in the silver housing, and the more powerful blue beam, which is encased in a gold housing.<ref name="h2"/> | ||
