The Rapidfire Pulse Carbine is a modified variant of the Erudo'ma'keth-pattern pulse carbine used by the Banished.[2]

Overview

Design details

Main article: Erudo'ma'keth-pattern pulse carbine

The Rapidfire variant of the pulse carbine differs from the standard design pattern in one major way—as its name suggests, it has an increased rate-of-fire. The outer nanolaminate carapace has a silver-white coloration, as opposed to the purple of the standard pulse carbine.[2]

Usage

One such weapon was used by General Inka 'Saham, a Sangheili commanding officer in the Banished during the campaign on Installation 07 in 2559-2560.[4] During the campaign, he used the weapon in a combat encounter with John-117, though was defeated by the Spartan.[5]

In-game information

Halo Infinite

In campaign, the Rapidfire Pulse Carbine is awarded to the player after defeating the High Value Target, Inka 'Saham. The weapon can be acquired at any Forward Operating Base. It exhibits a much higher rate of fire than the standard pulse rifle.[2]
