The M6/E Spartan Laser is one of a myriad of variants of the [[M6 Spartan Laser|M6 Grindell/Galilean Nonlinear Rifle]], an initially exorbitantly expensive weapon which underwent several refinements and iterations to reduce its cost.{{Ref/Site|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/weapons/spartan-laser|Site=Halo Waypoint|Section=Universe|Page=Spartan Laser}} As with all variants of the Spartan Laser, the M6/E has an integrated and [[Smart-linking|smart-linked]] [[Wyrd optics suite|Wyrd III optics suite]], capable of 3x magnification.{{Ref/Reuse|enc22}} Manufactured after the [[Human-Covenant War]], the M6/E's components are miniaturized components derived from the chin-mounted M6 variant originally employed by the [[AV-22 Sparrowhawk]].{{Ref/Site|Id=localunits|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-local-units|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Cannon Fodder: Local Units|D=31|M=3|Y=2017}} Despite functionally just as capable as other variants, the M6/E is an order of magnitude cheaper to manufacture.{{Ref/Site|Id=lockeandloaded|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-locke-load|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Cannon Fodder: Locke & Load|D=13|M=4|Y=2016}}

===Variants===
* '''[[Endgame]]''': ''Endgame'' is an improved model of the M6/E variant with a doubled battery capacity and reduced charge time. It has the downside of having less strength than its normal counterpart.
* '''[[Endgame]]''': An improved model of the M6/E variant with a doubled battery capacity and reduced charge time. It has the downside of having less strength than its normal counterpart.
* '''[[Selene's Lance]]''': An advanced variant of the M6/E model, built using new components from the labs in [[Seongnam]]. It has a faster charge time and a longer beam duration, with 50% additional battery capacity compared to its normal counterpart. The targeting laser is also harmful. In [[War Games]] simulations, balancing adds extra recoil and removes the beam's ability to pierce through multiple targets. It is also equipped with a Forerunner anti-materiél effect that can disintegrate enemies upon death or dead bodies in the same manner as the [[Z-180 Scattershot|Scattershot]] and [[Z-390 incineration cannon|Incineration Cannon]].

The M6/E Spartan Laser is featured in ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'' as a usable weapon known as the [[Spartan Laser]]. It is a [[power weapon]], which fires a powerful laser that deals an incredible amount of damage, destroying all vehicles with a single well-placed shot. The Spartan Laser is one of the most powerful weapons in the game, and to compensate, it has a limited use of four shots, a short cooldown after a discharge, and inability to pick up ammo.

==Production notes==
The ''Selene's Lance'' variant of the M6/E Spartan Laser is likely named after the [[Wikipedia:Selene|Greek Goddess of the same name]].
