The '''MA-75B Battle Rifle''' was developed by [[Durandal]] and his [[S'pht]] allies for use in the Battle of Lh'owon. Manufactured aboard ''[[Boomer]]'', this weapon was known for its incredibly high rate of fire and grenade launcher.<ref>[https://marathon.bungie.org/story/lhowon.html#M2.02.2.1 ''Marathon 2: Durandal'', '''The Slings & Arrows of Outrageous Fortune''', Terminal 2]</ref> | |||
== Design details == | |||
For the retaking of the [[S'pht]] homeworld, [[Lh'owon]], [[Durandal]] provided his human proxies with improved weaponry. Unlike its predecessor, which was "a ridiculous toy designed to impress aging pompous generals",<ref>[https://marathon.bungie.org/story/_files/Marathon_2_Manual.pdf ''Marathon 2: Durandal'', Marathon 2 Manual, page 16]</ref> it sported a longer barrel and more manageable recoil, while still retaining its higher rate of fire and grenade launcher. | |||

Despite the enhancements Durandal made, the weapon functions the same as it did in the previous entry in gameplay: a high rate of fire, CQC weapon meant to be used against flesh targets. [[BOB]]s, [[Pfhor Fighters]], [[Drone]]s or [[F'lickta]] are all easy fodder for the primary fire, and the grenade launcher excels in blowing apart tight formations. | |||
Just like its predecessor, this weapon can be used to fly in lower gravity and grenade jump. | |||
