The Sidekick is a [[ | The Sidekick is a [[pistol]] first introduced in ''[[Halo Infinite]]'', which works well as a general-purpose sidearm to supplement the player's primary weapon. Featured in both [[campaign]] and [[multiplayer]], it can be found very commonly in both modes, and is frequently part of the player's standard loadout. Shots from the Sidekick do relatively little damage, but can be fired very rapidly at the cost of significant [[bloom]]. The Sidekick can function well as a primary weapon in the hands of a skilled player, though as its name suggests, it is most effective when paired with another weapon. This allows the player to strip the opponent's shields with the main weapon, then switch to the Sidekick and finish them with a [[headshot]].{{Ref/Reuse|HIMK50}} | ||
