Needler Sentinel: Difference between revisions

The '''Needler [[Sentinel]]''' can be found on the level [[Quarantine Zone (Level)|Quarantine Zone]] on any difficulty. It is a lone Sentinel which shoots [[Needler]] rounds, rather than the conventional [[Sentinel Beam]] and, when destroyed, it drops a Needler. It can be found on the leftmost side of the first glowing orange indoor areas within the ruins of the [[Sentinel Constructor Factory]]. Note that this gun is perfectly ordinary, unlike the [[Scarab Gun]].<ref>http://ducain.org/archive_forum/viewtopic.php?t=11217</ref> This Sentinel is an oversight from [[Bungie|Bungie's]] tests with [[Sentinel]]s using different weapons, and was meant to be deleted.<ref>[http://forums.bungie.org/halo/archive24.pl?read=697541 Forum.Bungie.org]</ref>

It is equipped with [[energy shields]], and has the same boost ability and flight capabilities that an ordinary [[Sentinel Major]] has. The only difference is the Needler rounds it fires. Bungie was originally planning to have certain Sentinels equipped with different weapons. When this idea was aborted, the Sentinel's model was meant to be deleted, but was most likely forgotten during the development of the game.
