The '''Plasma Pistol''' is capable of quickly firing low-powered shots, or of firing a single high-powered blast, which tracks its target to some degree depending on the game. This blast is capable of immediately dissipating all types of shielding and also immediately destroys the Brute [[Power Armour]]. The amount of battery power it consumes when fired depends on the firing mode used and it varies from game to game. In [[Halo: Combat Evolved]], its standard fire depletes 1% of its battery for every three shots, while one overcharge shot will deplete 11% of its battery. In [[Halo 2]], it averages 5 standard shots for every 2% of its battery, while charged shots deplete 15% of the battery. In [[Halo 3]], the battery continually depletes if the trigger is held down for an overcharged shot, and uses 10% upon firing. The core power output is, like the [[Plasma Rifle]], 100-150 Kv @ 2-3 dA, but, when overcharged, the power output is 1.5 Mv @ 2-3 dA.
