The '''Needler Sentinel''' can '''only''' be found in the level, [[Quarantine Zone (Level)|Quarantine Zone]], playing on any difficulty. There is a lone [[Sentinel]] which shoots [[Needler]] rounds on the level and, when destroyed, it drops a [[Needler]] gun. It can be found on the leftmost side of one of the glowing orange indoor areas. Note that this gun is perfectly ordinary, unlike the [[Scarab Gun]].<ref>http://ducain.org/archive_forum/viewtopic.php?t=11217</ref> This [[Sentinel]] is an oversight from [[Bungie]]'s tests with [[Sentinel]]s using different weapons, and was meant to be deleted.<ref>[http://forums.bungie.org/halo/archive24.pl?read=697541 Forum.Bungie.org]</ref> This could be because that it would not be logical for Sentinels to acquire [[Covenant]] weapons.

It is equipped with [[energy shields]], and has the same boosting ability and flight capabilities that a normal [[Sentinel Major]] has. The only difference was the Needler rounds.

The Needler Sentinel.

The Needler Sentinel is an aggressor sentinel eliminator variant that can be found on the Halo 2 campaign level Quarantine Zone.

Overview[edit]

Unlike other Sentinels found in the game, this Sentinel fires Needler rounds rather than the conventional Sentinel beam and when destroyed, it drops a Needler.

This variant was supposed to make an appearance in the game. It was removed permanently from the finalized version of Halo 2.[1] However, one tag remained within the game, due to oversight by Bungie staff.[2]
