|
| ==Overview==
| | The '''Type-25 Carbine'''<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20070303063716/http://www.bungie.net/News/TopStory.aspx?cid=9607 The Spiker] - Internet Archive of Bungie.net article</ref>, more commonly known as the '''Spiker''' or the '''Spike Rifle''', is a [[Covenant]] [[Brute]] firearm. |

| [[File:ReachSchematic - Spiker.png|thumb|left|150px|A blueprint of the Spiker in ''Halo: Reach''.]]
| |
| The Type-25 Carbine is an automatic projectile weapon designed and used by the Jiralhanae, and has seen very little iteration since it was first designed and implemented during pre-Covenant conflicts on [[Doisac]]{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint}} though it has seen augmentation to some degree by Covenant technology.{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} The Paegaas Workshop variant was created by the [[Paegaas Workshop|eponymous]] [[clan workshop]] and manufactured on a large scale by the [[Sacred Promissory]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} In the Covenant arsenal, it is one of the weapons most resembling those developed and employed by humanity, firing a solid metal projectile as opposed to plasma . The Carbine fires long, sharp projectiles made of superheated tungsten alloy,{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint}}{{Ref/Note|Id=metal|On the Halo Waypoint article for the Spiker, the blades are noted as being created from the same metal as that of the weapon's ammunition, making both made of tungsten alloy.}} which give the weapon its common label of "Spike Rifle" or "Spiker".
| |
|
| |
|
| Although the most common spike rifle variant employed during the Covenant, the Paegaas design is not the only one; the [[Banished]] are known to use the [[Grenflekt Workshop Spiker|Grenflekt]] variant of the spiker developed by [[Mistrach'an Armory]].{{Ref/Book|Enc22|Page=476}}
| | ==Introduction== |
| | The Spiker was first seen in [[2537]], but only in the wake of the initial stages of the [[Covenant Civil War]] has it seen widespread usage amongst the Covenant. It is a weapon preferred by Brutes. Holding 40 spikes per magazine, this vicious and dangerous rifle is favored by Brutes and in fact, is based on their native pre-Covenant technology. Old as its technology is, the rapid-firing, razor-sharp projectile can tear through armor and flesh with ease.<ref>[http://halo3.com halo3.com]</ref> |
|
| |
|
| ===Ammunition===
| | The Spiker is a dual-wieldable weapon resembling a cut-down shotgun with two bayonets. It is the Brute equivalent to the SMG, Though its slightly more powerful and accurate than an SMG, it has a slightly slower rate of fire. Unlike the SMG, however, there is little recoil due to the sheer weight of the gun. This negates the action of having to adjust one's aim as one has to do with the SMG. It makes its debut in [[Halo 3]]<ref>[[KPaul]], [http://www.bungie.net/News/TopStory.aspx?link=omgneddlez Halo 3 Humpday - 11/16/2006 4:52 PM PST], "The advantage to this route is that it leads you over a couple more spike grenades, a Carbine, a pair of '''Spike Rifles''' and it’s much quicker." Accessed in Nov, 2006</ref><ref>Luke Smith,[http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?cId=3155479 Halo 3 We discuss the five best things about Halo 3 -- 11/24/2006], "Now, in addition to the '''Spike Rifles''', Spike Grenades and Sniper Rifle on the map, Bungie has added a Spartan Laser to the base-team configuration." Accessed in Nov, 2006</ref> |
| [[File:Landfall Spike Impale.png|thumb|200px|A Marine is pinned to a wall by a spike impact, which pierced and went all the way through his arm and embedded in the wall behind, requiring the spike to be cut in half to allow the Marine the ability to move again.{{Ref/Reuse|LOS}}]]
| | It is possible that this weapon will replace the [[Brute Plasma Rifle]] from [[Halo 2]]. |
| The spike ammunition is coated with a pyrophoric compound unique to Doisac,{{Ref/Reuse|OSFM190}} though the weapon's origins on the Brute homeworld obfuscate any further attempts to ascertain the composition of the weapon.{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} When fired, the coating burns with a white-hot intensity once exposed to atmospheric oxygen,{{Ref/Reuse|OSFM190}} rendering the spikes superheated and semi-molten.{{Ref/Reuse|OSFM190}} The spikes thus glow with a yellow-white light for a short time after impact, before they cool. Even Jiralhanae do not attempt to handle spike rounds without protective gloves.{{Ref/Reuse|OSFM190}} | |
|
| |
|
| These projectiles decrease in altitude the further they are shot, similar to the [[Type-33 needler|Needler]]. The are capable of piercing armor and flesh, in some cases even capable of pinning a target against an object behind them.<ref name="LOS">''[[Halo: Last One Standing]]''</ref> When fired directly at a surface, the spikes will embed themselves in most substances including concrete and metal, crumpling on impact. However, when fired at an angle, they are capable of ricocheting.{{Ref/Reuse|bnet}} The spikes are large enough that they can be pulled out of the target's body with seemingly minimal fragmentation.{{Ref/Reuse|LOS}} Spikes fired by the weapon are adept at penetrating [[energy shielding]], and are also capable of being blocked by an [[Type-1 energy sword|energy sword]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=BS19|HBC|Chapter=18}}
| | ==Ammunition== |
| | The Spiker fires large superheated metal spikes resembling [[Needler]] projectiles.<ref>[http://carnage.bungie.org/haloforum/halo.forum.pl?read=755574 Deja-Vu - EGM Magazine]</ref>. Upon impact, the spikes inflict wounds that have been described as "horrifying." The spikes fired by this weapon are armor-piercing and will penetrate energy shields. If shot directly at a surface, the spikes will crumple. However, if fired at a suffiently high angle, the spikes will ricochet with predictable accuracy, but without losing any of their efficiency. This is useful when firing from behind cover. Its ammunition spikes have also been noted to be of the same material as the also Brute-issue [[Spike Grenade]]. When a Spiker fires a projectile, it leaves a peculiar vapor like "burnt hair." |
|
| |
|
| The Spiker's ammunition is fed into the weapon via a small drum magazine with a 40-round capacity,{{Ref/Reuse|bnet}} though this is not standard across all version of the weapon.{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint}} The drum magazine is located on the underside of the weapon, behind the blades and in front of the trigger. These magazines are sealed and disposable, additionally holding a power supply for the weapon alongside the ammunition.{{Ref/Reuse|OSFM190}} Like all Jiralhanae weaponry, the Spiker has no safety and once the magazine is loaded, the weapon is ready to fire.{{Ref/Reuse|OSFM190}} The spikes, once-fired, are longer than the magazine, implying the firing process possibly stretches the projectile in some manner. | | The Brute Spiker has a very fast reload time in Halo 3. Even in dual wield configuration the Spiker is on par with or faster than the SMG. The Spiker ammunition is fed into the weapon via a small drum magazine with a 40-spike capacity. The magazine well is located on the underside of the weapon. |
|
| |
|
| When employed, the Spiker is noted to have a distinct smell of burnt hair, with a telltale sign of their use in a firefight being the smell of "barbeque gone wrong".{{Ref/Reuse|bnet}}
| | ==Bayonet== |
| | The Spiker's bayonet is made of tungsten carbide, and can be used at close range to dismember enemy soldiers. It is extremely hard and durable and a weapon to fear and take advantage of. It is reportedly capable of slicing through other weapons in addition to flesh and bone. |
|
| |
|
| ===Blades=== | | ==Capabilities== |
| Two large blades made of tungsten alloy,{{Ref/Reuse|bnet}} an extremely strong and durable material, are mounted under the barrel of the weapon, allowing it to be used as an effective melee weapon in close quarters. When used by Jiralhanae, these blades are intended for puncturing and dismembering{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint}} and are capable of clean severing a human arm.{{Ref/Reuse|bnet}} These blades are, however, also effective as a psychological tool against anyone unfortunate enough to go against them.{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint}}
| |
|
| |
|
| ===Ergonomics===
| | The Spiker is much the [[Covenant]] counterpart of the [[SMG|UNSC SMG]], having very similar range and penetration capabilities. There similarities to the SMG are mainly apparent in close range combat situations, reportedly doing 'terrible things to human flesh'. Also having two large bayonets mounted under the barrel of the weapon increases its close quarters functionality. As with the SMG, firing in short, controlled bursts will result in increased accuracy. When using the weapon for medium range combat, its similarities to the SMG are limited. When in full automatic, the spikes will gain a very large spread. Another difference from the SMG is that there is very little recoil, virtually eliminating the problem of muzzle climb during dual wielding, and the need to constantly adjust aim to stay on target. |
| The Spiker was engineered by the Jiralhanae as a weapon intended to be held in one hand by a standard Jiralhanae soldier, though its size and weight mean it must be carried in two hands for use by human infantry.{{Ref/Reuse|believe}}{{Ref/Reuse|h3}}{{Ref/Reuse|odst}} The weapon's weight also has the effect of reducing its recoil, such that it has almost zero "rise".{{Ref/Reuse|bnet}} Despite this, a [[SPARTAN-II]] and [[Sangheili]] is capable of dual-wielding Spikers with the help of [[powered exoskeleton]] .{{Ref/Reuse|h3}} The Spiker has a simple key ring trigger, though the pull weight can be an issue for un-augmented personnel.{{Ref/Reuse|OSFM190}} The Type-25 Carbine is noted to perform admirably in a wide variety of environments; it is a widely held belief that the weapon could sit unattended for several weeks in an active latrine and still operate as issued without maintenance. The Spiker's barrel is 25.4 centimeters (10 inches) long.{{Ref/Reuse|bnet}} The Spiker has a low muzzle velocity, but is incredibly accurate and retains its power nonetheless.{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} The weapon has several lights around the weapon that can be powered on, and have been observed in blue and orange colouration. | |
|
| |
|
| ==Operational History==
| | The spikes, however, have a much slower velocity compared to the SMG's rounds. If firing at mid-range, it is recommended to lead the shots. |
| [[File:Landfall Spike Injury.png|200px|thumb|A spike round stuck in [[S. Hartley]] during the [[Battle of Sector Six]].{{Ref/Reuse|LOS}}]]
| |
| The Spiker was first encountered by UNSC forces when used by Jiralhanae forces during the initial skirmishes on Harvest in [[2525]],<ref>''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]'', p. 345</ref> and would remain a staple weapon of the Jiralhanae and the Covenant's shock troops{{Ref/Site|URL=http://halo.bungie.net/projects/reach/article.aspx?ucc=ordnance&cid=28445|Site=Bungie.net|Page=Halo: Reach ordnance - Spiker|D=30|M=01|Y=2021}} throughout the Human-Covenant War. The Type-25 Spiker was detested by the [[Sangheili]] due to its primitive origins, but the weapon was allowed to be serviced in low numbers<ref>''[[Halo: Broken Circle]]'', Chapter 15</ref> and even augmented with Covenant technology.{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} | |
|
| |
|
| Despite this, however, it would be rarely employed by front-line Covenant infantry during the war - only rising to prominence in late [[2552]] following the return of Jiralhanae as front line troops.{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}}{{Ref/Reuse|bnet}} The weapon would be employed by Jiralhanae forces during the [[Siege of New Alexandria]] and [[Battle of Asźod]] during the [[Fall of Reach]],<ref>''[[Halo: Reach]]'', campaign level [[Exodus]]</ref><ref>''Halo: Reach'', campaign level [[New Alexandria]]</ref><ref>''Halo: Reach'', campaign level [[The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Reach level)|The Pillar of Autumn]]</ref> before later being employed during the [[Battle of Earth]] by the [[Fleet of Sacred Consecration]] and [[Truth's fleet|Jiralhanae reinforcements]] sent by the [[Prophet of Truth]] to [[Mombasa]].<ref name="odst">''[[Halo 3: ODST]]''</ref>{{Ref/Film|Id=Oct20|Film=Halo Waypoint|Story=Ten Twenty|StoryLinkText=Ten Twenty}} Following the outbreak of the [[Great Schism]], the Spiker would be employed by Jiralhanae serving the Prophet of Truth on Delta Halo {{Ref/Reuse|BS19}} and aboard the ''[[Anodyne Spirit]]''{{Ref/Comic|HU}} and in his fleet during the later stages of the Battle for Earth and [[Battle of Installation 00]].<ref name="h3">''[[Halo 3]]''</ref> Following the base's re-activation, the UNSC tested captured Spikers at [[Outpost C9]] on Earth.{{Ref/Reuse|bnet}} The Spiker would be one of many subjects of the report [[Machines, Materiel and Munitions from the Human-Covenant Conflict, 2525 - Present]].{{Ref/Reuse|bnet}}
| | It should also be noted that when firing at a target at medium range, the spikes have a slight arc, enough so that if the shooter is aiming at the chest or head, the spikes may end up hitting the target's feet, or may miss entirely if not using controlled bursts. It is recommended that when firing at medium range, the wielder should place the bottom of the reticle so that the bottom line of the square-shaped reticle is at the head or neck in order for the shots to hit the target's abdomen. |
|
| |
|
| Spikers have seen proliferation in the [[Post-Covenant War conflicts]], with the weapons being widely employed by various Jiralhanae splinter factions including the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]],<ref>''[[Halo: Last Light]]''</ref> [[Children of Oth Sonin]]{{Ref/Comic|HEsc|Issue=1}} and the [[Banished]], the latter of whom seem to have their own variant of the weapon.
| | ==Dual Wielding== |
|
| |
|
| By [[2610]], a Spiker was held in the [[Museum of Humanity]], and would be picked up by [[Roland Huffman]] - a veteran of the war.{{Ref/Reuse|believe}}
| | The main weapon that the Spiker is dual wielded with is other Spikers, but other combos are of course possible. The Spiker and Plasma Rifle can be devastating together, the effective equivalent of the SMG/Plasma Rifle combo from Halo 2. The Spiker takes the place of the SMG, and often works even better than the previous combo. |
|
| |
|
| == Changes from ''Halo 3'' and ''Halo 3: ODST'' to ''Halo: Reach''==
| | Another combo is the Spiker/SMG combo, which, though not as good as the plasma rifle combo, is still mildly effective at close quarters. However, the much different ammo capacities and rates of fire can make organized reloading a challenge, though it can be more effective when trying to keep a weapon available especially when still combating with enemies. Yet another combo is the Spiker/Plasma Pistol combo. This combo is effective mostly for single enemy surprise attacks. However, it is often regarded as inferior to most weapons and combos, which makes it less desirable. |
| * Weapon damage has been decreased: 18 shots are required to kill a fully shielded Spartan instead of 13.
| |
| * Brutes wield the Spiker with two hands.
| |
| * The Spiker has orange lights instead of blue lights.
| |
| * The Spiker features some kind of firing bolt mechanism.
| |
| * The barrel of the Spiker glows red-hot after continuous fire.
| |
| * The bayonets are scratched and dented. The blades on the bottom of the weapon's grip is more pronounced.
| |
|

| {{Linkbox|gallery=yes|gameplay=yes}}
| | <references /> |
| * In ''Halo 3'', the Spiker does about 60% more damage than the M7/Caseless Submachine Gun and 20% more damage than the [[MA5C assault rifle|MA5C Assault Rifle]]; on [[Heroic]] difficulty, it takes 20 Spiker rounds, 24 assault rifle rounds, or 32 SMG rounds to kill a human Marine. This makes the Spiker the most powerful full-auto projectile weapon in the game, but this is balanced out by the slightly reduced rate of fire and the fact that the projectiles are not hitscan.
| |
| * Despite popular belief, the Spiker's bayonets do, in fact, provide a small increase in melee damage in ''Halo 3''. The Spiker's melee damage is 72 points. if the player melees while dual wielding with a spiker the damage increase will remain for that hit. All non-Brute weapon melee attacks in ''[[Halo 3]]'' with the exception to the Sword, Hammer, and assassinations inflict 70 points of damage out of a player's 115 total health (made up of 70 to the shield, and then the remaining 45 to the player's own health).<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=13233 ''Bungie.net'' - Bungie Weekly Update: 02/08/08]</ref>
| |
| * In ''Halo 3''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s campaign mode, if a [[Kez'katu-pattern Phantom|Phantom]] is shot down and a Heavy Grunt survives, it will often have a Spiker as its weapon, and in which case will not shoot at you. This is the only time in which an Unggoy can hold a Spiker.
| |
| * According to Halo community, the Type-25 Spiker's UNSC counterpart seems to be the MA5B ICWS or the M7 Caseless Submachine Gun and the Type-25 Spiker's Sangheili counterpart seems to be the [[Okarda'phaa-pattern plasma rifle|Type-25 DER]].
