The ''Twin Jewels of Maethrillian'' appears as a Level 7 Legendary [[Requisition system|REQ]] that grants 200 REQ Points when sold. The weapon fires two magenta beams that deal extra damage against armor and have a longer duration than the single beams of lesser Binary Rifle models. This makes it deadly against vehicles and bosses alike, especially the [[Warden Eternal]] and {{Pattern|Pnap|Goblin}}s; the weapon can destroy a [[Kemu-pattern Wraith|Wraith]] in two hits if aiming for the back. In addition, it is possible to score multiple kills (2 or 3) in one shot because of this, although this depends on the player's skill with the weapon. Also, it can carry one more magazine than a standard Binary Rifle.

It is capable of killing [[Soldier Officer]]s in one hit, even on [[Legendary]] difficulty, so long as both of the beams hit for the entire time; this can be made even easier if the [[Halo 5: Guardians skulls#Tilt|Tilt]] skull is activated. As with the ''[[Retina of the Mind's Eye]]'', the ''Twin Jewels of Maethrillian'' has the same overall range as a Binary Rifle: 38.10 m (125.00 ft) in hipfire, 152.40 m (500.00 ft) with 4× zoom, and 342.90 m (1,125.00 ft) with 9× zoom.{{Ref/Reuse|analysis}} | ||
