'''Laser Kill''' is a [[Medal]] awarded in ''[[Halo 3]]'' for killing an enemy with the [[Spartan Laser]] weapon, awarded for ''any'' kill with the Laser (other than melees) due to the unwieldy charge time and precise accuracy it takes to destroy a target with the weapon. It is represented by a gray octagon with a black circle that in turn has a red dot in the center. As this medal is awarded, a message appears on the screen, saying "You lasered (player)".


'''Laser Kill''' ('''Splaser Kill''' in ''[[Halo 4]]'') is a [[medal]] awarded in ''[[Halo 3]]'', ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'', ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' and ''[[Halo 4]]'' in [[campaign]], [[multiplayer]], [[Firefight]] and [[Spartan Ops]] for killing an enemy with the [[Spartan Laser]]. It is represented by a gray cog shape with a black circle that in turn has a red dot in the center. In ''Halo 4'' the medal is also placed on top of a blue circle and grey 4-pointed star.
==Trivia==
*This medal bears a strong resemblance to Hal 9000's viewing port; it has a dark circle with a single red dot in the center.
*The "You lasered (player)" seems to be glitched, because, sometimes, when someone on your team lasers an opponent, it just says they have killed them, and this is with nothing explosive nearby, just the laser shot through the target.
*When lasering someone, there is a very small chance that you seem to get two laser kill medals, but when you look at the post game carnage report, it shows that you recieved one laser kill medal (un noticable if you have lasered more than one person in the game)


As this medal is awarded, a message appears on the screen, saying "You lasered (player)".
==Trivia==
*This medal bears a strong resemblance to the viewing port of Hal 9000, an AI from the movie "2001: A Space Odyssey"; it has a dark circle with a single red dot in the center.
*In ''Halo 3'' the "You lasered (player)" appears to be glitched, because on occasion, when an ally lasers an opponent, it will only say "(Ally) killed (player)".
*You can also get this medal by lasering an enemy's vehicle while they're in it. An easy way to get multiples of this medal is to destroy a vehicle with multiple passengers with the laser, you will get one for each person in the destroyed vehicle.
*The medal resembles the barrel of the weapon with the red dot being the charged laser.
*The player will get 3 of this in ''Halo 3: ODST'' Firefight when they laser a Wraith, one for the driver, one for the turret and the final one for the tank itself.
*Earning Laser Kill medal by killing a Banshee in ''Halo 3'' campaign (prior to the shutdown of [[Xbox 360]] ''Halo'' online services on January 13, [[2022]]) in matchmaking will unlock the [[Too Close to the Sun]] achievement.
*Prior to the shutdown, earning a [[Double Kill]] Laser Kill with a single Spartan Laser Shot in a ''Halo 3'' free for all ranked match unlocked the [[Two for One]] achievement.
*Earning 10 Laser Kill medals in the ''Halo 3: ODST'' level [[ONI Alpha Site]] will unlock the [[Laser Blaster]] achievement.
*Prior to the shutdown, earning two Splaser Kill medals with direct hits in a ''Halo 4'' [[War Games]] matchmaking game on a [[Castle Map Pack|Castle map]] would unlock the [[Dodge This!]] achievement.
*In the Halo 3 multiplayer beta, the red dot in the center appeared much brighter than the final version.
