The [[Vex]] '''Line Rifle''' is a [[Solar]] damage weapon deployed on the [[Hobgoblin]] chassis.


==Overview==
==Overview==
The Line Rifle serves as a Vex sniper weapon, pinning down targets or delivering the killing blow. Like its counterpart, the Slap Rifle, Line Rifles are a terminal weapon - though its source is much more energetic. It is believed by some that the weapon pulls material from the accretion disk of a galactic singularity. Such an energy source would imply the Vex are near - or have already achieved - access to a terrifying range of civilization-killing weapons. Others, however, consider this unlikely, and propose that the Line Rifle simply draws from a central Vex power supply. They deal [[Solar]] damage. <ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Vex_Arsenal#Linw_Rifle|Line Rifle]]''</ref>

Such an energy source would imply the Vex are near - or have already achieved - access to a terrifying range of civilization-killing weapons. Others, however, consider this unlikely and propose that the Line Rifle simply draws from a central Vex power supply. It is very rarely wielded by [[Goblin]]s, only in ''[[Destiny]]''.
 
The [[Taken]] variant of this weapon fires Void beams, but is otherwise the same, with the difference being in how [[Taken Hobgoblin]]s fight.
 
A massive variant of this rifle is found in the hands of the rare Hobgoblin [[Vex Mind]]s, like [[Agioktis, Martyr Mind]]. It features a tri-pointed barrel, allowing for three conduits instead of the regular single one, and thus greater stopping power and rate of fire.
 
==Trivia==
*The only Minotaur to ever be seen wielding this weapon is [[Ioneion, System Control Flow]].
