| The '''Weapon Holder''' is a device used by the [[Covenant]] for storing certain weapons, using [[anti-gravity technology]] to keep its weapon held aloft.{{Ref/Game|Id=H3|H3|Weapon Holder in-game object}} | | The '''Weapon Holder''' is a piece of machinery used by the Covenant for storing certain weapons, using either an anti-gravity or magnetic suspension to hold its cargo aloft. It is most often encountered in multiplayer levels holding the [[Energy Sword]] aloft, but can hold other weapons. It costs 3 [[Forge]] points and is available on every map. For unknown reasons, in Forge, if placed correctly, strange things will happen to the map, such as on [[High Ground]], where you can make unmoving [[Elites]] and [[Spartans]]. |

| The Weapon Holder can be encountered in ''[[Halo 3]]'' [[multiplayer]] both on standard levels and as a [[Forge/Halo 3|Forge]] [[Forge objects in Halo 3/Scenery|scenery object]]. They work similarly to the [[traffic cone]] used to hold up the [[Scarab Gun]] in ''[[Halo 2]]'', holding up any weapon deposited over them to face vertically.

| When encountered in regular multiplayer, the Weapon Holder is most commonly seen holding up an [[energy sword]], particularly on the maps [[The Pit]] and [[Construct]]. However, they can be used to hold any weapon dropped above them (be it dropped in Forge or by another player). They can also be used to hold all grenade and [[equipment]] items (including the [[Active Camo]], [[Overshield]] and [[Custom powerup]]) and some smaller scenery objects such as the [[gravity lift]]. It can also be used to hold the [[7 wood]] joke weapon. If used on the central platform of [[Epitaph]] or the [[M313 Elephant|Elephants]] on [[Sandtrap]], they will not work and the object being stored will simply fall down.

| In Forge, the Weapn Holder costs $3 to spawn, and can be spawned on any map in the game. They have fairly unique physics, and can be balanced on any surface including small tree branches. In the released [[Downloadable content|map packs]], Weapon Holders are usually used to make certain objects float that normally would fall down. Objects usually held in the air by Weapon Holders are active gravity lifts, [[fusion coil]]s, and some other small objects like [[radio]]s, and barrels. They can be used to make traps; for example, holding a gravity lift in place such that any player who walks in front of it may be flung backwards and off the edge of the map.
