| 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}} | | {{ratings}} |
| | 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 glitches 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.
| | Weapon Holders don't only hold weapons it can also hold the already open Gravity Lift, but it will only hold it side ways so if you want to hide it around a corner on Construct someone might just walk in to it and they'll be sent flying off the edge. |

| 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. | | In Halo: CE all of the Weapon Holders were closed. |
