The ''Vorpal Talon'' is a named variant of the T-1 EW/S, imbued with various upgrades from [[Spartan abilities|two thruster evades]] between cooldowns to increased jump height, longer stabilizer duration, increased lunge distance, and a built-in [[motion tracker]] that retains its visibility on the user's [[heads-up display|HUD]] even when using [[smart-linking|Smart-Link]], mirroring the built-in motion tracker of the ''[[Nornfang]]'' [[SRS99-S5 AM sniper rifle]]. Described to be virtually weightless when its wielder uses it with unrestrained malice, the ''Vorpal Talon'' has a maroon handle and an orange-to-cyan gradient for the main blade coloring. | The ''Vorpal Talon'' is a named variant of the T-1 EW/S, imbued with various upgrades from [[Spartan abilities|two thruster evades]] between cooldowns to increased jump height, longer stabilizer duration, increased lunge distance, and a built-in [[motion tracker]] that retains its visibility on the user's [[heads-up display|HUD]] even when using [[smart-linking|Smart-Link]], mirroring the built-in motion tracker of the ''[[Nornfang]]'' [[SRS99-S5 AM sniper rifle]].
