* '''[[Void's Tear]]''': The ''Void's Tear'' is an advanced T-54D that features overcharged shots that create an unstable gravimetric vortex by superheating exotic nuclear isomers. At the point of impact, the overcharged shot pulls in nearby objects and then explodes. Normal shots also yank back weapons they hit. A direct, fully charged shot where a [[Spartan]] is pulled into the blast will kill in a single hit. Unlike other Plasma Pistol variants and the [[Z-390 incineration cannon|Incineration Cannon]], keeping the ''Void's Tear'' charged for too long does not deplete the battery. It is classified as a Rare REQ and can be summoned in Warzone at Level 4 energy.{{Ref/Reuse|H5G}} | * '''[[Void's Tear]]''': The ''Void's Tear'' is an advanced T-54D that features overcharged shots that create an unstable gravimetric vortex by superheating exotic nuclear isomers.

=== Changes from ''Halo 5: Guardians'' to ''Halo Infinite'' === | |||
* Like the Type-25 plasma pistol from ''Halo 2'', it cannot disable vehicles. | |||
* It retains the classic hum sound from ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' to ''Halo: Reach''. | |||
* The firing sound is now reminiscent to the Type-25 plasma pistol’s firing sound from the Bungie titles. | |||
* It is capable of being vented, but firing rapidly or using the alt-fire mode will still overheat it. | |||
* Plasma ammunition crates and Plasma Pistols on weapon racks or the battlefield refill its battery without the need to pick up a fresh one. | |||
* While it’s almost visually identical to the ''Halo 5: Guardians'' version, the organic carapace has been streamlined as discussed in ''The Art of Halo Infinite''. Additionally, the markings on the weapon are now green as opposed to blue, matching the plasma projectiles. | |||
