Template:Weapon Infobox

The Type-54 Directed Energy Pistol (Type-54 DEP)[1], also known as the Plasma Pistol, is the post-Covenant War successor to the Type-25 plasma pistol.[2]

Variants

Type-54D plasma pistol

The T-54D plasma pistol was used extensively by the Swords of Sanghelios and Jul 'Mdama's Covenant faction in October 2558. It is also the preferred sidearm for Spartan-IV Olympia Vale.[2]

Spitfire

The Spitfire is a T-54D produced by Kig-Yar armorers that features a faster rate of fire and reduced heat generated per shot.[2]

Void's Tear

The Void's Tear is an advanced T-54D that features overcharged shots that create an unstable gravimetric vortex by superheating exotic nuclear isomers. At the point of impact the overcharged shot pulls in nearby objects and then explodes.[2]

Gameplay

Changes from Type-25 plasma pistol in Halo 2: Anniversary

  • Extensive visual redesign; this plasma pistol's barrels are curvier and look more like the Plasma Rifle's barrels.
  • Can now be zoomed in with Smart scope to decrease reticule bloom.
  • Overcharges now track targets better if the player is "scoped-in," similar to the Type-56 Needler.
  • Is once again able to EMP vehicles.
  • Increased damage, killing a fully-shielded Spartan in 9 bolts.
  • Does not drain battery while the trigger is held down as long as the current battery percentage is sufficient.
