Wraith

Learn how to effectively use the powerful Covenant Wraith tank in Halo Infinite. Discover its strengths, weaknesses, and how to find it on the battlefield.

Alright, let's talk about the Wraith! Think of it as the Covenant's answer to the Scorpion tank you might have seen from the UNSC. It's tough, it hits hard, and it's a blast to use once you get the hang of it.

How to Use the Wraith

This beast has a couple of tricks up its sleeve.

Basic Stats Overview

Strengths of the Wraith

The Wraith is built to last, just like the Scorpion. Its main weapon, the plasma mortar, is awesome because you can lob it pretty far and even over obstacles. This means you can hit enemies who think they're safe behind cover. When that mortar lands, it explodes with plasma fire, similar to the Ravager but way more powerful and with a bigger blast radius – great for clearing out groups!

If you need to be more precise, switch to the alternative fire mode: the plasma cannon. It's not as good for area damage, but it's much more accurate and perfect for finishing off any stragglers after a mortar strike.

Weaknesses of the Wraith

Now, it's not perfect. The Wraith can feel a bit clunky to drive, especially when you've got enemies coming at you from all sides. Like most tanks, it's a big target for powerful anti-tank weapons like the Skewer and the M41 SPNKR. Also, since it only fits two people (driver and gunner), it's not as flexible as the Scorpion, where extra teammates can hop out to defend from different angles if needed.

Where to Find the Wraith

You won't find the Wraith just anywhere. You'll need to look for Pelican drops on the Big Team Battle maps. Keep an eye out on maps like Deadlock, Fragmentation, and Highpower – that's where this bad boy usually shows up.
