A Hunter (Lekgolo) using its Assault Cannon
The Assault Cannon is a Covenant directed energy weapon weapon which is used by the Lekgolo (or Hunters). It is a variation of the more common fuel rod cannon in the fact that it fires a continuous beam of plasma as opposed to the single shots. Its ammunition comes in the form of incendiary gel tubes called Fuel Rod Cells.[1]. The weapon is located on the right "arm" of the colony, built into the Lekgolo that make up the limb.
Counter Attack
The Hunter will use this weapon only if you are far away enough, otherwise, he will attemp to meleé you with his shield
Trivia
- In Halo: CE, the cannons fire single explosive plasma shots, whereas in both Halo 2 and 3 it is capable of firing a concentrated beam. This sometimes looked similar to a overcharged plasma pistol volley.
- On Halo 3, the Assault Cannon's projectile looks very simmilar to the Halo CE Plasma Pistol's Overcharged shot
