Boltshot
The Z-110 Directed Energy Pistol/Exotic or Boltshot is a Promethean/Forerunner pistol which fires concentrated bolts of hard light. It can be used as a secondary weapon for Halo 4 War Games and Spartan Ops loadouts and can be found throughout the Campaign. It is a close-range precision weapon and excels at destroying organic matter.
Suppressor
The Z-130 Directed Energy Automatic Weapon, more commonly known as the Suppressor, is a Promethean/Forerunner weapon. It fires bolts of charged hard light that pierce and destroy any organic material. Its rapid firing rate made it a favorite of Forerunner troops against the Flood during the Forerunner-Flood war. It is more effective at closer ranges compared to its Human and Covenant counterparts, the Assault Rifle and the Storm Rifle.
Scatershot
The Z-180 Scattershot is a prominent Forerunner channel weapon that was used for close-range defense toward the end of their war with the Flood. While practically unstoppable up close, the most remarkable attribute of the Scattershot is its schismatic dispersal effect, drowning confined hard-surfaced interiors with brutal, ricocheting beams of energy.
Light Rifle
The Z-250 Directed Energy Engagement Weapon, informally known as the Light Rifle, is a Forerunner weapon that fires beams of hard light particles. In War Games and Spartan Ops, it is available as a primary weapon in the loadout.
Incineration Cannon
The Incineration Cannon fires five streams of explosive particles in a tight spread which release in four different directions upon detonation. The explosive particles then detonate again individually, increasing the effective radius of the initial explosion.
Splinter Turret
The Z-520 Encounter-Mitigation System, more commonly known as the Splinter Turret, is a Promethean heavy weapon featured in Halo 5: Guardians. Upon impact, its projectiles explode outwards into several smaller explosive projectiles, giving the weapon its colloquial name. It was employed by Prometheans in conflicts after the Requiem Campaign. As support weapons, picking up the Splinter Turret would result in a lack of mobility.
Binary Rifle
The Z-750 Special Application Sniper Rifle, more commonly known as the Binary Rifle, is a long-range Forerunner weapon appearing in Halo 4. It employs two core-mounted particle accelerators to propel a round with unparalleled stopping power that can bring down distant foes with one shot. When the round impacts an enemy, it causes them to disintegrate, similar to when a Promethean Knight is killed. It also has two zoom modes (5x and 10x) to fulfill its purpose as a long range precision rifle. The rifle emits a highly visible orange beam from its barrel when aiming, allowing opponents to trace the user's location.
