One of the new Halo 3 weapons introduced in Halo 3 is the Spartan laser. The Spartan Laser is a great new
addition to the Halo armory. It is a very powerful weapon. You can use it to knock out vehicles and weapons such as
Wraith and Shade Turret.
The Spartan laser needs to charge up for about 3 seconds before it can fire the laser beam. Press the trigger, hold until the
laser charges up and then let go. It will then shoot a high-powered red laser beam capable of destroying vehicles and
infantry with a single shot. To abort the firing, release the trigger before the laser fires.
It is a fun weapon to have. You can feel the power you have in your hands. Unfortunately, the ammo is limited and it is
very rare in the Halo 3 Campaigns. The Spartan Laser only appears twice in the Solo missions i.e. Covenant and Halo.
In the Covenant, you start the mission with the Spartan Laser. To knock out a Wraith, aim the Spartan Laser at the middle
portion of the Wraith. (between the turret and the body).
Another new Halo 3 weapon is the Gravity Hammer, which is only used by the Covenant Chieftain.
The sight of the Gravity Hammer is enough to tell you that it is a highly destructive weapon.
One overhead downward smash can kill the opponent instantly. The splash damage is almost the same at that of the Shotgun.
The hammer smash can safely deflect a rocket or projectile and send vehicles flying.
When you see a Chieftain charging at you with a Gravity Hammer, get out of the way as one blow can send you sprawling. Keep move backward in a zip-zag manner and toss a plasma grenade at the hammer.
When a Chieftain is killed, go ahead and pick up the Gravity Hammer. You will have a lot of smashing fun with it.
