Z-040 pulse grenade: Difference between revisions

Did some research, the "star shaped" or box with 6 spikes is still the pulse grenade in Halo 4, just moments before detonation. While inert it is a box with 8 spikes coming out of the corners instead of the faces of the cube.

In the ''[[Halo 4: Official Game Guide]]'' it is mistakenly portrayed as a star-shaped device with six spikes.<ref>'''[[Halo 4: Official Game Guide]]''' (Collector's Edition), page 47</ref> In the ''[[Halo 4: The Essential Visual Guide]]'', it is shown to be a more box-like device with eight spikes. It is likely based off of the HUD icon when you have a pulse grenade on you, which also mistakenly portrays it as such.
In the ''[[Halo 4: Official Game Guide]]'' it is portrayed as a box-shaped device with six spikes, each coming out of the faces of the cube.<ref>'''[[Halo 4: Official Game Guide]]''' (Collector's Edition), page 47</ref> In the ''[[Halo 4: The Essential Visual Guide]]''. This is actually the phase of the grenade shortly before it detonates, while the inert grenade is a box with spikes coming out of the corners as opposed to the faces. This near-detonation view is used as the icon on a player's [[HUD]].
