Template:Weapon Infobox The Z-130 Directed Energy Automatic Weapon[1], also called the Suppressor, is a fully automatic Forerunner energy weapon.[2] It is commonly utilized by Promethean Knights.[3]

Overview

The Suppressor was first introduced during the Kradal conflicts. It gained prominence during the human-Forerunner war and the Forerunner-Flood war.[4] The Suppressor is a fully automatic weapon employing a conventional coil set architecture that fires bolts of hard light in rapid succession. Its high rate of fire and efficiency against the Flood led to its widespread use among the Forerunner warriors during the Forerunner-Flood war, particularly when attempting to retake vessels captured by the Flood; however, it is similarly effective against all organic matter.[5]

Design details

The weapon possesses an angular design and metallic casing. It appears to be held together, at least partly, by energy fields as indicated by its self-assembly process. Orange highlights can be seen while the weapon is self-assembling and throughout the casing once assembly is complete; these highlights grow brighter when the weapon is fired.[1]

Gameplay

The Suppressor holds a large ammunition capacity and deals considerable damage at close range, making it even lethal to non-shielded infantry. However, it has little to no accuracy at long range (even with short controlled bursts) and has a lengthy reload time.
