Template:Weapon Infobox

The Weapon/Anti-Matériel Z-390 High-Explosive Munitions Rifle,[1] more commonly known as the Incineration Cannon, is a usable Promethean Forerunner weapon.[2] The Z-390 Incineration Cannon is a shoulder-mounted munitions launcher.

Gameplay

Halo 4

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.

Advantages

  • Because there are multiple explosive particles, it is very easy to kill multiple players with one shot.
  • It does enough damage to the Scorpion, the Wraith, and the Mantis to destroy them in one hit, but only if all the explosive particles hit the vehicle.

Disadvantages

  • The Incineration Cannon has only one shot per clip and reloading takes four seconds, which makes missing a shot very punishing.
  • The weapon's large area of effective splash damage makes it easy to kill oneself in close quarters.

Changes from Halo 4 to Halo 5: Guardians

  • Runs on a battery instead of a magazine.
  • Can fire a rapid two-round burst or can be charged to fire a more powerful blast.
