I noticed the confusion about how the name seems to come out of nowhere. This is from the [http://www.halowaypoint.com/en-US/halo4guide Waypoint interactive guide]: "Deployment platforms such as the Lich are rarely documented in human combat, as encounters with the vehicle usually result in its complete domination of all resisting forces." This explains why no one knew what it was at first, and also why it already has a UNSC name. [[User talk:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 08:10, 13 November 2012 (EST)

:I personaly think that, because of the craft's capabilities, only a few people are able to identy it. I'm sure that once Chief and co. arrived back at the Infinity, they were told what it was. It is labeled as Type-56, meaning that it was documented a year prior of the events in Halo 4. [[User talk:Missing Mandible|Missing Mandible]] 19:58, 21 November 2012 (EST)

I find myself confused about what the Lich's main cannon is. The article and the Waypoint Guide identify it as a 'Plasma Autocannon' and in-game its beam is similar to a Scarab's [[Focus Cannon]]. But what confuses me is that, as best as I can tell, the beam does nothing at all to anything except the Mammoth. During a Legendary run with a friend I stood in front of the beam and took a only a tiny notch of shield damage (which may have actually been from a Ghost). Is it scripted to only affect the Mammoth? Has anyone worked out what 'PEW/M' means?

:IIRC It only fires once and it's a scripted event, right? It probably does no damage because while it's supposed to look like a weapon, in terms of how the game works it's technically not. [[User talk:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 23:33, 15 November 2012 (EST)

I just played a bit of Reclaimer and while fooling around with the rocket turret on the Mammoth and found that the Lich started to evade as far as ten meters and sometimes moved about twice as far off the ground as normal. It did so with or without the gravity lift on, it works normally other than doing splash damage when it slams into you, you fall when the lift moves out from under you, and your corpse follows the gravity lift when you die on the fins while coming up it. Ok, this does happen according to the game engine. Should this be mentioned and if so, how???--[[User:Lian 512|Lian 512]] ([[User talk:Lian 512|talk]]) 22:18, 25 February 2013 (EST)
Of course, this would be shortened to Trivia: unlike the Phantom, the Lich will dodge if shot, especially if shot with heavy weapons. It will do so with or without it's gravity lift on, this will cause the lift to move.--[[User:Lian 512|Lian 512]] ([[User talk:Lian 512|talk]]) 13:16, 2 March 2013 (EST)
