The '''''Erudo'ma'keth''-pattern Carbine''', or '''pulse carbine''', is a weapon originally manufactured and used by the [[Covenant]],{{Ref/Generic|Id=S1Trailer|[[Halo Infinite Multiplayer Season 1 Cinematic Intro]]}} and later adopted by the [[Banished]].{{Ref/Reuse|EN}}

===Design details===

The pulse carbine is a [[directed-energy weapon]] hailing from the same line as other [[Plasma weaponry|plasma weapons]] like the {{Pattern|Okarda'phaa|plasma rifle}} and {{Pattern|Kelos'vaarda|storm rifle}}.{{Ref/Reuse|EN}} Unlike the more traditional plasma rifle, the pulse carbine shares more of a visual similarity with the storm rifle or the {{Pattern|Nakata'vho|plasma repeater}}, consisting of a fully-elongated rifle with a full stock and barrel. The pulse carbine is capable of fully-automatic{{Ref/Reuse|EN}} or burst fire,{{Ref/Reuse|forge}} and is designed to quickly overwhelm targets with a barrage of superheated [[plasma]] bolts. The weapon does not have the sheer accuracy of the {{Pattern|Vostu|carbine}}, but makes up for it with range, power and sheer fire rate. Additionally, the pulse carbine's projectiles are capable of tracking an enemy target.{{Ref/Game|HINF|Pulse rifle in-game weapon}}

==In-game information==

{{Article quote|Burst-fire plasma weapon effective at close to medium range. Projectiles track targets.{{Ref/Game|HI|Academy - Weapon Drills - Pulse Carbine description}}}}

The pulse carbine serves as the hybrid between the [[Plasma Repeater]] and the [[Battle Rifle]]. The pulse carbine fires in five-bolt bursts with each bolt consuming 0.8% charge. The bolts can track enemies, and easily strip enemy shields. The projectiles from the pulse carbine will travel slowly at first, so the wielder must aim very carefully, especially in close quarters. If fired continuously, the pulse carbine will overheat; however, the player can vent the weapon before it overheats completely. Overall, it is most effective when one keeps their distance from their targets. In the campaign, the pulse carbine is wielded by [[Sangheili]] and [[Jiralhanae]].
