The '''Gravity Lift''' is the result of [[Covenant]] gravity-manipulation technology used to either consume objects into the ship's interior, or to safely transport troops to a surface. 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 Covenant ships and from the base of [[Deployable Lookout Towers]].
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 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 Covenant ships and from the base of [[Deployable Lookout Towers]].

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 was seen in the cutscene after [[Master Chief]] killed the [[Prophet of Regret]] in the [[Delta Halo]] Temple Lakes. Many people believe this to be an energy projector, although an energy projector is pure white and is mounted and placed onto multiple areas of a [[Covenant]] ship, which is unlike the gravity beam, which is noticeably located in the same area as gravity lift. Also, to help prove the gravity beam is based off of the gravity lift: look at the circumference of the gravity beam. It has the same exact shade of purple as the gravity lift as well as the oscillating lines on the outer wall. It is possible that the gravity beam is a gravity lift put into reverse on maximum power. This is noticeable as the gravity beam hits the floor of the temple it, the debris is forced downwards.<ref>[[Regret (Level)|Regret]]</ref>

It can be seen in the cutscene after [[Master Chief]] kills the [[Prophet of Regret]] in the [[Delta Halo]] Temple Lakes. The Covenant Fleet 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>
