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. It is very rarely wielded by Goblins, only in Destiny.

The Taken variant of this weapon fires Void beams, but is otherwise the same, with the difference being in how Taken Hobgoblins fight.

A massive variant of this rifle is found in the hands the rare Hobgoblin Vex Minds, 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.
