The Skewer is a powerful anti-materiel rifle that fires 1 round, similar to the [[ARC-920 railgun|Railgun]] minus the splash damage and charge-up delay. It is capable of destroying light and air vehicles in 1 or 2 shots and pushing back heavy vehicles. In the campaign, the Skewer is wielded exclusively by [[Jiralhanae Sniper]]s. In singleplayer, being hit by a Jiralhanae Sniper's spike will deal a significant, but non-lethal amount of damage to the player on lower difficulties, while in multiplayer, it is capable of killing a Spartan in 1 hit regardless of the location of its body. | The Skewer is a powerful anti-materiel rifle that fires 1 round, similar to the [[ARC-920 railgun|Railgun]] minus the splash damage and charge-up delay.

Amusingly, when playing in custom multiplayer lobbies that enable bottomless magazines, the Skewer is revealed to fire quite rapidly for a launcher-type weapon. | Amusingly, when playing in custom multiplayer lobbies that enable bottomless magazines, the Skewer is revealed to fire quite rapidly for a launcher-type weapon. |
