The Arcane Sentinel Beam is a specialised variant of the sterilization beams used by the Sentinels.[2]

Overview

Design details

The Arcane variant of the sentinel beam differs from the standard models fielded by Aggressor Sentinels in a handful of factors. Its beam is more powerful than that of the standard model and has a faster cooldown, though has less ammunition capacity.[2]

Usage

One such weapon was used by Kaidon Thav 'Sebarim - a Sangheili commanding officer in the Banished during the campaign on Installation 07 in 2559-2560.[3] During the campaign, he used the weapon in a combat encounter with John-117, though was defeated by the Spartan.[4]

In-game information

Halo Infinite

The Arcane Sentinel Beam is awarded to the player after defeating the High Value Target, Thav 'Sebarim. The weapon can be spawned at any Forward Operating Base within the campaign of Halo Infinite, and exhibits a much more powerful beam and faster cooldown than the standard sentinel beam - at the cost of lower ammunition capacity.[2]
