It's fixed now. Oh and sign your edits (on talk pages). Use the button third from the right, the one that looks like cursive. -- | It's fixed now. Oh and sign your edits (on talk pages).

In the level ''Piallar of Autumn'' when Cortana tells you to hurry because the lifepods are lanching, you can see blue beams shooting the PoA and even destroying a lifepod. I don't believe those could be Energy Projecters because in Halo 2 an Energy Projector could pierce a Marathon Crusier. So they would either be A: Pulse Lasers B: Unknown Covenant weapon. Just pointing that out.--[[User talk:Arabsbananas|Arabsbananas]] 22:27, September 16, 2009 (UTC) | In the level ''Piallar of Autumn'' when Cortana tells you to hurry because the lifepods are lanching, you can see blue beams shooting the PoA and even destroying a lifepod.

I had assumed they were Plasma Torpedo's that were moving VERY fast.--[[User talk:Rprince418|Rprince418]] 03:57, December 5, 2009 (UTC) | |||
:No, they were probably lasers. Why would the Covenant use a torpedo on a lifeboat, when they could just kill the ship with it? --<small><span style="border: 1px solid silver; -moz-border-radius:10px">[[User:General5 7|'''<span style="background-color:White; color:FireBrick; -moz-border-radius-topleft:10px; -moz-border-radius-bottomleft:10px"> General5 7 </span>''']][[User talk:General5 7|<span style="background-color:silver; color:white; -moz-border-radius-bottomleft:10px; -moz-border-radius-topleft:10px"> talk </span>]][[Special:Contributions/General5 7|<span style="background-color:silver; color:white"> contribs </span>]][[Special:Emailuser/General5 7|<span style="background-color:silver; color:white; -moz-border-radius-bottomright:10px; -moz-border-radius-topright:10px"> email </span>]]</span></small> 04:07, December 5, 2009 (UTC) | |||
It was a pulse laser, because as the life boat carrying Master Chief pulls away from the Autumn you can see plasma torpedoes striking the hull, and they're moving much slower. The blast that destroyed the launching life boat was instantly there. --[[Special:Contributions/184.0.125.233|184.0.125.233]] 06:41, December 27, 2009 (UTC) | |||

On the Pulse Laser turret page, I think that the size of the beam itself should be talked about, because on the page it makes me feel like these things could take out smaller ships (frigates) in one short blast and with only one laser beam. I thought the beams were very small and could only damage or burn through a tiny section of the ship. [[User talk:Darb 013|Darb 013]] 04:41, August 25, 2010 (UTC) | |||
==Pulse Laser Turret vs. Point Laser Defense== | |||
According to ''Halo: The Essential Visual Guide'', the Pulse Laser Turret is listed as a "Point Laser Defense", which is a pretty much the same thing, except that in the Halo novels they are called as they are referred to now: Pulse Laser Turrets. I'm a little bit confused about this. Trust reference material over novel material? Myself personally, I prefer Pulse Laser Turret simply because it sounds more deadly and dangerous. I'm going to trust sources from Halo novels. Point Laser Defense is certainly applicable, but it just seems somewhat generic, as in a class of laser weapons, not one specific kind of laser weapon.

:It doesn't need changing. The infoboxes in the ''Essential Visual Guide'' seem to describe the role of each weapon system on a general level instead of their actual names. For instance, the UNSC ship entries don't list Archer or Shiva missiles, only a "Missile Delivery System". --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 02:50, 29 September 2011 (EDT) | |||
::Good point. And FYI, I wasn't suggesting the article be changed, or even, if it was at all possible, the book itself. The only things that should be changed in the book is the addition of the UNSC Marine Corps and F99 UCAV, which they (DK and 343i) forgot to put in.
