The Ukala Workshop Spike Revolver,[1] also known as the Mangler, is a Jiralhanae-designed sidearm in service with the Banished.[4]
Design details
The Mangler is a highly powerful handgun designed by the Jiralhanae and employed by the Banished. It heavily resembles a human revolver, with an 8 round swing-out cylinder reloaded using a speedloader-like device. It fires large spike rounds likely using an explosive charge or powder encased in red metallic cartridges. The actual projectiles are perfectly cylindrical before firing, and appear to warp somewhat after firing, indicating they may not be completely solid. The Mangler also has a pair of tandem bayonets arranged in a tusk-like formation under the barrel for melee attacks. Although extremely different in terms of functionality, the Mangler's appearance is highly reminiscent of the Type-52 Mauler.[4] The Mangler was manufactured by Saizos Armory and developed by the Ukala workshop.[1]
Gameplay
Halo Infinite
The Mangler has an ammo capacity of 8 rounds.[4] In multiplayer the Mangler will drop a Spartan's shields in 2 shots and kill an unshielded Spartan in 1 headshot or 2 body shots. In the campaign, the Mangler is wielded by Jiralhanae, Kig-Yar Skirmishers, and Kig-Yar Raiders.
Variants
- Riven Mangler: A white painted Mangler that fires three spikes per shot, giving it increased damage. Used by Balkarus during the Battle for Zeta Halo.
