The Solemn Penance's gravity lift.

The gravity lift is a form of transport derived from Forerunner technology by the Covenant. A gravity lift can safely transport individuals or goods vertically without the need for a physical lift.^[1]

Operational history[edit]

During Operation: SILENT STORM in 2526, Blue Team used gravity lifts leading from the fabrication barns on the Ring of Mighty Abundance to send HAVOK tactical nuclear weapons aboard the Covenant supercarrier Hammer of Faith and destroy it.^[2]

In April 2552, during the Battle of Fumirole, Spartan-III Catherine-B320 attempted to use the gravity lift of the Ket-pattern battlecruiser Sanctity of Purification to deliver a Fury tactical nuclear weapon aboard the ship and destroy it from within. However, Kat was injured by a shot from a Type-26 Banshee, causing Thom-A293 to take the warhead instead. With little time until detonation, Thom flew into the gravity lift using his Series 8 jetpack and threw the bomb into the hanger bay he landed in. However, while Thom was successful in destroying the battlecruiser with this maneuver, he was unable to escape the ship in time and perished in the explosion.^[3]

During the Fall of Reach in August 2552, Frederic-104 and Kelly-087 used the gravity lift on a Covenant cruiser to send a Fury tactical nuclear weapon aboard the ship and destroy it along with the troops gathered underneath.^[4]

In September 2552, during the Battle of Installation 04, Spartan-II John-117 and several ODSTs had to fight their way aboard the Ket-pattern battlecruiser Truth and Reconciliation using the gravity lift, which was heavily defended by Covenant forces.^[1] Later, the Master Chief had to fight his way back aboard the battlecruiser using the gravity lift after overwhelming Flood forces caused the Master Chief to jump out of the ship.^[5] When the human forces later took control of the battlecruiser, the gravity lift was one of two methods of entry used to gain access to the ship. It was then deactivated as the humans prepared to depart Installation 04 in the Truth and Reconciliation.^[6]

During the early stages of the Battle for Earth, the Master Chief was ordered to reach the Solemn Penance's gravity lift to board the assault carrier and capture the Prophet of Regret. However, after the Master Chief destroyed a Scarab, the Solemn Penance instead fled through slipspace to Installation 05.^[7]^[8] Later, the Master Chief utilized the gravity lifts on High Charity to move around.^[9]^[10]

Shortly after the departure of the Solemn Penance, ODST Taylor "Dutch" Miles helped other UNSC forces take the carrier's former landing zone, which still contained the deactivated bottom of the ship's gravity lift.^[11]

In April 2559, as part of Isabel's plan to destroy the Banished CAS-class assault carrier Enduring Conviction, she had ground forces from the UNSC Spirit of Fire take over the carrier's gravity lift, while more ground forces used a particle cannon to take down the carrier's shield.^[12] Spartan Jerome-092 worked to take the gravity lift with the help of Alice-130, hampered by Banished defenses sent down from the carrier using the lift. After positioning Kodiak tanks, the UNSC forces were able to take out the defenses around the gravity lift while Douglas-042 and Professor Ellen Anders took down the shields. Jerome and Isabel then boarded the ship through the gravity lift, and Isabel used the Enduring Conviction's energy projector to provoke the Ark's Sentinels into attacking the ship. The Sentinels severed the ship in two, knocking out power to the gravity lift, which ended up in the part of the ship Jerome was not in. With no other choice, Jerome was forced to jump from the ship to the surface of the Ark.^[13]

In October 2559, after Atriox's arrival on Reach, Castor directed him down a nearby tunnel to an access shaft, sure that the humans would've retreated or soon would due to the threat of one of Cortana's Guardians arriving shortly. As a result, the storm from the slipspace portal would provide the perfect cover for War Chief Escharum's intrusion corvette to return and extract Atriox, Escharum and their forces from Reach's surface using its gravity lift.^[14] The corvette extracted the Banished forces and departed just before the Guardian could arrive.^[15]

During the Battle for Zeta Halo in May 2560, the Master Chief used a number of gravity lifts to move around the structures across Zeta Halo. Several of these gravity lifts were Forerunner in origin while the others were Banished. On a few occasions, the Master Chief had to retrieve power seeds due to the gravity lifts being out of power when he found them. Occasionally, due to a gravity lift being locked down, the Master Chief had to deploy the Weapon to activate it, such as the one leading from the Nexus to the Command Spire.^[16]

Applications[edit]

John-117 and Fire Team Charlie board the gravity lift of the Truth and Reconciliation.

The Forerunners made extensive use of gravity-manipulating technology, including gravity lifts.^[17] This technology was eventually discovered and reverse-engineered by the Covenant. The usage of gravity lifts is commonplace in many of the Covenant's structures and installations, including their former holy city High Charity; there, gravity lifts served as the primary form of vertical transport, often in the form of long tubes that ran inside the city's towers.

Gravity lifts can also be projected from the underside of most Covenant starships. They can be used to lift ground-based troops and equipment onto a ship, or to safely transport troops to a planetary surface. Covenant citadels employ gravity lifts to lift supplies to and from orbit, before they are stored in the base's warehouses.^[18] They are also used as means of transport between the decks of ships. Some smaller craft, including Phantom dropships, some Spirit dropships, and Lich dropships, as well as Covenant watchtowers are also equipped with gravity lift technology. Larger military emplacements such as spires possess gravity lifts for transport between the structure's various levels. Small, infantry-portable versions of the gravity lift are used by Covenant forces.

Variations[edit]

A variety of technologies employ gravity manipulation similar to gravity lifts; these include the man cannon, which propels individuals or objects in a tilted angle as opposed to a vertical span, or the gravity bridge, which consists of a horizontally-oriented gravity field.

In-game information[edit]

Halo 3[edit]

Main article: Portable gravity lift

In Halo 3, in addition to standard gravity lifts and man cannons being available to players, the portable gravity lift is a piece of equipment that can be deployed.

Halo Wars[edit]

The Citadel's gravity lift in-game in Halo Wars.

"Teleport Units to Leader."

— In-game description

In Halo Wars, when a Covenant Citadel is built, a Gravity Lift is placed at the front of the base. All friendly units other than the Scarab can be sent to the gravity lift, which transports them to the Leader unit's location. Players may also set a Citadel's Base Rally Point on the gravity lift, so all newly trained units from the selected Citadel would be sent to the gravity lift and transported to the Leader unit upon deployment.

Name	Type	Cost			Description
Name	Type	Population	Tech	Resources	Description
Global Rally Point	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	All newly trained will move to this location when training is completed. You can set a Base Rally Point to direct a specific base's units someplace else.
Leader Recall	N/A	N/A	0	100	Quickly transport your Leader back to this position.

-The '''Gravity Lift''' is a form of transport derived from [[Forerunner]] technology by the [[Covenant]] to lift ground-based troops and equipment onto a ship or platform, or to safely transport troops to a surface without the use of any mechanical device or mechanism. However, the polarity of the lift needs to be reversed in order to switch from the two different functions. They can be projected from both the underside of most [[List_of_Starships#Covenant_Starships|Covenant ships]], [[Phantom]]s and from the base of [[Deployable Lookout Towers]].

-== Appearances ==
+==Operational history==
-Gravity Lifts are seen at least twice in the game ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''. These scenes both involve the [[Master Chief]] and the [[Covenant]] {{Class|CCS|Battlecruiser}}: ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]''.<ref>[[Truth and Reconciliation (Level)|Truth and Reconciliation]] and [[Keyes (Level)|Keyes]]</ref>  However, this Gravity Lift seems to change position between levels indicating the ship or at least the Gravity Lift changed locations. The Gravity Lift belonging to the [[High Prophet of Regret]] is also seen in ''[[Halo 2]]'', in the background of the levels [[Outskirts]] and [[Metropolis]], as it holds position and occupation over [[New Mombasa]]. Many gravity lifts are also seen in ''[[High Charity]]''. A [[Covenant Separatist]] [[Phantom]] uses a smaller-scale gravity lift to extract the Master Chief and [[343 Guilty Spark (Monitor)|343 Guilty Spark]] from a [[Flood]]-controlled area in ''[[Halo 3]]''.
+During [[Operation: SILENT STORM]] in [[2526]], [[Blue Team]] used gravity lifts leading from the fabrication barns on the [[Ring of Mighty Abundance]] to send [[HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon]]s aboard the [[Covenant supercarrier]] ''[[Hammer of Faith]]'' and destroy it.<ref>'''[[Halo: Silent Storm]]'''</ref>
-== Gravity Lift as a Weapon ==
+In [[2552#April|April 2552]], during the [[Battle of Fumirole]], [[Spartan-III]] [[Catherine-B320]] attempted to use the gravity lift of the {{Pattern|Ket|battlecruiser}} ''[[Sanctity of Purification]]'' to deliver a [[Fury tactical nuclear weapon]] aboard the ship and destroy it from within.

However, while Thom was successful in destroying the battlecruiser with this maneuver, he was unable to escape the ship in time and perished in the explosion.<ref name="DH">''[[Deliver Hope]]''</ref>
-The Gravity Lift can also serve as a [[weapon]] that launches people or objects quite a distance in the air. It is primarily used to quickly scale high walls or defense. It can be seen in the cutscene after [[Master Chief]] kills the [[Prophet of Regret]] in the ''[[Delta Halo]]'' Temple Lakes. A [[Covenant]] [[Assault Carrier]] bombards the temple with a high-powered beam with the same color and constitution as a Gravity Beam, effectively disintegrating it with it's force.<ref>[[Regret (Level)|Regret]]</ref>

-[[Image:Gravlift halowars.jpg|thumb|right|A Gravity Lift outside a [[Citadel (Covenant)|Citadel]].]]
-In [[Halo Wars]], each Covenant base automatically has a Gravity Lift right outside. Gravity Lift lets the Covenant's players to do "Hot Dropping". Hot Dropping allows Covenant players to transport any units directly to their Leader's location.
-An additional twist is that the Covenant Leaders can be "recalled" back to a base via the Gravity Lift. The Covenant Leaders are very valuable, so the best players will rescue their Leaders right before death. The Scarab is the only unit that cannot be transported via the Gravity Lift<ref>[http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?pager.offset=1&cId=3172311&p= 1]</ref>. Once a base is destroyed, its Gravity Lift automatically disappears.

-* It is strange that the polarity needs to be reversed to send an individual to the ground since this should catapult them into the ground with greater force than falling, although the lift may move people within a stasis field.
