I love the Sentinal beams, but I have never seen a blue one.

I'd love to see the blue one in multiplayer.. Of course, some gametypes using the weapon, Thanks to the workings of Frankie's brain, really are quite hilariously boring... It's an alright weapon.

The blue ones are in campain there the ones with the energy shields not to get confused with the giant ones they are goldish if that helps and they do alot of more damage than the orange ones.

Go to Caimpaign. The Advanced Sentinal beam is much more powerful. I'll just say it, I got raped many times on Sacred Icon by any Flood/sentinal that weilded them.

Sentinal beams are very good to kill flood with because thats what they were designed for by the forerunners :D

sentinal beams, especially blue ones are extremely good against flood. Not to mention fun in no shields games.

I see no problem with them, so nothing to fix. They're just another rare weapon.

To bad master chief dosn't hold the sentinal beam by his head it would look like he had laser vision but how he holds it now it looks like hes taking a nuclear pee.

What about duel weilding sentinal beams? Those would make the orange ones useful.

I don't think, when talking about sentinal beams, that overheating is a major issue.

I think it is...

Reach is hot garbage.

I would love to see a Sentinel Beam that would actually be useful in multiplayer. Personally, its too weak for me to even consider it a weapon except when the Flood is involved.

I think the sentinel beams could be great, i always wanted to use the raw, concentrated power, like the EMP guns from The Matrix
