=== Design details ===
=== Design details ===
The lightrifle fires luminescent orange hardlight rounds. It is a scoped, mid-range to long-range weapon that normally fires a three-shot burst with one pull of the trigger. When zoomed in, however, it fires a single high-powered concentrated shot that consumes three units of ammunition. It holds 36 units per magazine; however this provides 12 shots while zoomed in. Functionally, the weapon employs componential particle acceleration to fire beams of hard light particles at a high speed and with pinpoint accuracy.{{Ref/Reuse|h4guide}} Using the diffused combination of particle acceleration and hardened photonic matter, it is capable of dropping individual shielded enemies such as [[Sangheili|Elites]], [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartans]], [[Promethean Knight]]s, and [[Armiger Soldier]]s in a few well placed shots.{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}}

The rifle possesses an angular design and metallic casing. It features a stock, a firing grip, a stabilizing firing grip, a scope and a light mass channel.{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}} It appears to be held together, at least partly, by energy fields as indicated by its self-assembly process and floating sights. Orange lights are present while the weapon is self-assembling and throughout the casing once assembly is complete; there is also a column of orange-colored energy that runs through the light mass channel.{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}} Hard light highlights stream along the sides of the weapon while it is fired. The sight through the scope is tinted orange and is approximately a 4× zoom. It features integrated targeting optics.{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}} The Light Rifle was manufactured and developed by [[Ferrarius Assembler Vats]].{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=390}}

===Halo 4===
=== ''Halo 4'' ===
In ''[[Halo 4]]'' the rifle is essentially a mix between the [[BR85 Heavy Barrel Service Rifle|Battle Rifle]] and the [[M395 Designated Marksman Rifle|DMR]] in that it possesses the three-round burst of the BR while not scoped-in and the single-shot fire of the DMR when scoped in. While its burst-fire function isn't as potent as that of the Battle Rifle's, its semi-automatic fire is much more powerful than that of the DMR's, thus outclassing the two while zoomed in, especially from a distance with its higher 4× zoom magnification. However, it is slightly hindered by a slower firing rate compared to the two other weapons making it critical that the shots land and result in a headshot. While the time to kill of the unscoped mode is higher to both human weapons, the scoped mode has a lower time to kill. At the maximum red reticle range, the LightRifle can easily overpower a DMR or a BR. While it is not as suitable for close ranges, an extremely skilled user can utilize both firing modes to achieve a lower kill time than its human counterparts.

While unscoped, three shots are required to leave an opponent vulnerable to a single lethal melee. Two shots of the single fire mode are required to achieve the same effect. The magazine has two different displays in the HUD: 36 small rounds for unscoped mode, and 12 rounds for scoped. The maximum ammo one can carry is 36/108 when unscoped or 12/36 if scoped.

=== ''Halo 5: Guardians'' ===
===Halo 5: Guardians===
In ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'' the LightRifle (as it is now capitalized) is no longer capable of a three-round burst like the battle rifle, and instead fires single shots like its ''Halo 4'' rendition's scoped-in mode. The weapon remains aesthetically similar to its ''Halo 4'' version with a change to the scope and a pair of cylindrical components under-slung near the muzzle. However, utilizing the smart scope on the weapon now causes the beam to spread out slightly, allowing for easier hits on moving or distant targets, and reduces the required shots to kill from four to three, assuming the final round is a headshot. Its fire rate drops dramatically while scoped however, making landing that final round more difficult than would be expected. In gameplay, it is significantly harder to find, as there are fewer [[Promethean]]s using them than in ''Halo 4'', also due to the fact that [[Armiger Soldier]]s can switch to [[Z-130 Suppressor|Suppressors]] if players get too close to them.

=== Changes from ''Halo 4'' to Turbo update ===
===Changes from ''Halo 4'' to ''Halo 5: Guardians''===
* The rate of fire of the Lightrifle has been increased when zoomed in.
*Unscoped mode now fires a single round (similar to the Halo 4 versions scoped firing style) instead of bursts, taking 4 shots to kill a fully-shielded Spartan if the last shot is a headshot.
* The rate of fire of the Lightrifle has been decreased when zoomed out.
*Scoped mode now fires a flat, wide projectile, which takes 3 shots to kill provided the final shot is a headshot.
* The red reticle range of the Lightrifle now matches the DMR's Turbo-era range.
*Zoom significantly reduced.
*Ammunition capacity is adjusted to match the new single-shot only firing mode from 36/108 to 12/36.


=== Changes from Turbo to ''Halo 5: Guardians'' ===
==Trivia==
* Unscoped mode now fires a single round (similar to the ''Halo 4'' version's scoped firing style) instead of three-round bursts, taking 4 shots to kill a fully-shielded Spartan if the last shot is a headshot.
{{Linkbox|gallery=yes|gallerypage=Images of Z-250 Directed Energy Engagement Weapon}}
* Scoped mode now fires a flat, wide projectile, which takes 3 shots to kill provided the final shot is a headshot.
*The Lightrifle was originally conceptualized as the [[Binary Rifle]] in the preliminary phase of development.<ref name="twoconcept">[[:File:H4-Concept-BinaryLightRifles.jpg|Concept art of the Binary Rifle. Note the bottom part that is to be the Lightrifle.]]</ref>
* Zoom significantly reduced.
*Some Sangheili warriors in Spartan Ops are seen wielding lightrifles, as well as Scattershots. Presumably the taboo on using human weaponry observed during the Human-Covenant War does not extend to Forerunner weaponry, perhaps because of the Covenant's veneration of Forerunners and their technology, or that this particular group of Elites (as part of Jul 'Mdama's Covenant faction) does not share either taboo.
* Ammunition capacity is adjusted to match the new single-shot only firing mode from 36/108 to 12/36.
*The weapon's fire rate was lessened and its damage was increased during the 'turbo update', making it different in campaign and multiplayer.
* Name is now capitalized as '''LightRifle'''.
*Getting a perfect kill with the lightrifle in ''Halo 5: Guardians'' multiplayer rewards the player with a medal unique to the lightrifle.
* Rates of fire when zoomed out and zoomed in are slightly reduced.
