-Compared with other examples of the [[Covenant]]'s armory, the Carbine is somewhat unusual: its energy projectiles are fast and damaging, but its single-shot design seems strangely old-fashioned. Don't misgauge its strength, though. When used by a professional, the Carbine is an accurate weapon redolent of a cross between the [[Sniper Rifle]] and [[Battle Rifle]]s.

-With a 2x zoom facility, it's possible to make lethal [[headshot]]s from afar. The Carbine's only real shortcomings are that your position is betrayed by a yellow trail with each shot, and that its rate of fire is rather slow. When you get your hands on one, be sure to take advantage of it.

-It is sometimes carried by Brutes and Elites, but most of the time they stick with their favored plasma rifles. In the hands of an enemy Brute or Elite, they can be deadly, however.
