''Nornfang'' is a [[Mythic weapon|mythic]] weapon in ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''{{'}} [[Warzone]] mode, as well as [[War Games]] simulations. It is available as a Level 7 REQ that grants 200 REQ points when sold. ''Nornfang'' does more damage than standard sniper rifles, being capable of an instant kill on an opponent with normal shielding regardless of where the shot lands. Due to the bullets having a proximity explosion effect, this means that even a missed shot can still kill the target as long as they are within range of the bullet's detonation. However, as the increased damage is due to a Damage Boost effect applied to the user while the weapon is active, a wielder of this weapon will appear more visible due to the red particle effects. Just like with the ''[[Type-1 energy sword | ''Nornfang'' is a [[Mythic weapon|mythic]] weapon in ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''{{'}} [[Warzone]] mode, as well as [[War Games]] simulations.

In the campaign, ''Nornfang'' can be found during the mission "[[Unconfirmed]]" aboard Blue Team's [[ONI Acrisius|prowler]], or if Linda is selected by a player when in [[cooperative play]]. Just like with [[Kelly-087]]'s ''[[Oathsworn]]'' [[M45 shotgun|M45D shotgun]], the campaign version of the ''Nornfang'' lacks the multiplayer version's inherent Damage Boost, extra spare mag, and built-in radar, making it functionally a normal sniper rifle. Additionally, it cannot pick up ammo from other sniper rifles. | In the campaign, ''Nornfang'' can be found during the mission "[[Unconfirmed]]" aboard Blue Team's [[ONI Acrisius|prowler]], or if Linda is selected by a player when in [[cooperative play]].
