The Cindershot is a Forerunner hardlight grenade launcher.[1]
Overview
The Cindershot was manufactured and developed by Ferrarius Assembler Vats.[2] The Cindershot fires ionized particle grenades, which explode seconds after launching, damaging anything caught in its explosion.
When reloading, the front of the Cindershot is pulled back, allowing more hard-light grenades to move to the front of the ibarrel, before it snaps back to its original position.
Gameplay
Halo Infinite
The Cindershot is a hardlight grenade launcher that serves a similar role to that of the Plasma Caster, but its explosion pulls in targets in close proximity. The Cindershot has alt-fire mode that allows the projectile to follow the wielder's direction. The Cindershot is capable of killing a Spartan in 2 direct explosions.
