The Incineration Cannon was often used to strategically purge infected sites. [[Promethean]]s used the Incineration Cannon when assaulting a location believed to contain a [[Gravemind]], or early-forming [[Flood hive|spore mountains]], that were deemed too small for ship weapons but too large for infantry weapons.<ref name="h4evg"/> The Incineration Cannon fires five antimatter-infused streams of concentrated explosive particles,<ref name="h4evg"/> which gather into globular projectiles that oscillate along a straight trajectory. The projectiles detonate and spread upon impact with a target, ricocheting and bouncing in tall but short arc trajectories. It initially holds five whole charges at a time with one shot per charge. Each charge is automatically "loaded" after firing and cool-down. It has been described as "mixing traits of a rocket launcher, shotgun, and flamethrower." | The Incineration Cannon was often used to strategically purge infected sites.

*'''[[River of Light]]''': The ''River of Light'' unleashes long bursts of energy blasts if charged up.<ref name="H5G">'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'''</ref> | *'''[[River of Light]]''': The ''River of Light'' was created during the [[Forerunner-Flood war]], which led to many technical advances that ultimately proved fruitless. Upgraded with increased damage and faster charging speed, it unleashes long bursts of [[seven]] energy blasts if charged up. Available as an Ultra Rare REQ for Level 5 energy in [[Warzone]] simulations, the ''River of Light'' is also available as a secret weapon in the mission [[Reunion]].<ref name="H5G">'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'''</ref> | ||
