HR: Covenant Weapons - Plasma Grenade (Type-1)


Basic description: a.k.a, "stickies" or "blue spiders." Usually one at a time unless launched from Plasma Launcher. Bounces off of walls and ceilings, but will stick to people, vehicles and floors. Causes EMP damage like frag grenades. Loadouts vary from 1 to 3, usually can carry 2 max. Nearly dentical in function to previous games.

NEW FOR HALO REACH: Does significantly more damage than in previous games. Stickiness is slightly increased in the beta. Can be "unstuck" with Armor Lock.

Restrictions: Seems to take more to kill Warthogs in Reach.

Uses:Any range, stickies are instant kills as is nearby splash damage. Generally takes more than one to kill a vehicle, even Warthogs. Is a still one-shot kill when boarding tanks. Pairs well with jet pack and evade.

Best for: New players to spam congested areas, flushing out corners, Covie Slayer gametype, killing vehicles.
