For The Covenant, I just rush up, kill the Grunt that's trying to get the Ghost, I then laser the Shade, take the Ghost, rush down, take the Power Drainer, go up the lift, throw the Power Drainer at the Brutes, headshot them all, assassinate the Chieftain, go down the lift, kill everyone with the Laser, then go down for full Carbines and a fresh PP that's waiting just outside. This is how I use the laser, much easier for me, and if I manage to kill both Brutes that are waiting for me in one Laser shot, the Grunts can even make my job easier by going kamikaze fail-fest.
Wow, that actually sounds easier and better, power drain part especially. the only problem I'll have is entry to the tower, but I'm sure I'll find myself a method.
The problem with this method is you aren't taking the Beam Rifle with you, so if your Power Drain doesn't effect all four Brutes (or at least both Captains), then you've just made things more difficult for yourself and also decreased your chances of snagging that Invincibility.
Are the plasma pistols too hard to hit, or just too risky on brute shot brutes then? I did have the problem on Sierra... I may just use that way but take the beam rifle anyway instead of the laser. Last time I was lucky enough to have everything at the door blow up in one bi explosion straight away, but i know that's a rare occurrence. I'll just experiment and find what suits me better.
For that section it can be. Keep in mind that a lot of that scenary can be glitched, just like in Tower 3 with meleeing Brutes through the glass. Splash damage can actually kill you through walls here, but if you use the Beam Rifle, they won't even shoot at you.
