 StarBase HellHound - Plasma Weapons
Plasma weaponry was abandonned by the Frontier races in favor of the more accurate and far more adaptable laser weapons.
Plasma weapons are still in use however on some backwaters, and some more primitive spacefaring races still produce plasma guns and cannons.
In a plasma weapon, a small amount of hydrogen is heated by a very small laser until it each hydrogen nucleus is stripped of it's electrons, and then the hydrogen in this high energy state is released from the reaction chamber as a blast of plasma.

Plasma cutting is a process used to cut steel and other metals (or sometimes other materials) using a plasma torch.

Plasma cutters use a number of methods to start the pilot arc, depending on the environment the unit is to be used in and its age.

 Halo 2 Plasma Pistol - halowiki.net - Multiplayer, Maps, Weapons, Strategy   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-08)
Plasma Pistols have two firing modes: a manual rapid-shot that can slow down and stun opponents (much like the Plasma Rifle), or a powerful overcharged bolt of plasma that is able to deplete an enemy's shields.
Hold down the trigger to charge up a large bolt of plasma, then release when the bolt is fully charged (the indicator at the top right of the HUD in addition to audio and visual cues relect this).
Plasma pistol overcharged bolts will not home in on enemy players that have the Invisibility powerup, nor will they home in on any player whose shield is down, bear this in mind.

 Halo 2 Beam Rifle - halowiki.net - Multiplayer, Maps, Weapons, Strategy   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-08)
The main advantage of this rifle is that you can shoot two shots in very quick succession, meaning often that you can get two shots off in the same time as you would have been able to shoot only one with the human sniper rifle.
However, you must also consider how vulnerable you will be when it overheats, the human sniper rifle fires slower but can reload a lot faster than the beam rifle can cool down, remember this in a sniper battle.
I like the beam rifle because when it over heats, you can switch to your secondary and when you get back, it will be fine, unlike the human where you have to manually reload it.

The plasma rifle is good against shields, but watch that overheat meter to avoid what could be a fatal pause while your gun overheats.

 BR55 Battle Rifle - Halopedia - A Wikia wiki
Designated the BR55 Battle Rifle, it has reasonable power, decent rate of fire, and high accuracy; proving itself to be one of the most versatile weapons in the UNSC arsenal.
It was designed to replace the Pistol from the original game; this was because the developers felt that the pistol was overbalanced for a weapon of such a small size (and just in general, as compared to the other weapons in the game).
This is a continous pattern with UNSC assault rifles as a similar instance occured with the MA5B.

 Insider Secrets: Halo 2 starter kit - CNET reviews
Dual-wielding is obviously the biggest addition to the Halo gameplay formula in Halo 2: with it, you can mix and match up to five weapons (the SMG, Magnum, Plasma Rifle, Plasma Pistol, or Needler) in either hand, taking advantage of their peculiar strengths and weaknesses to overpower opponents.
That's because the Plasma Rifle is best at dropping shields and does less damage to an unshielded foe, while the SMG is ineffective against shields, but is quite handy against video-game flesh.
Many players prefer to have the Plasma Pistol in place of the Plasma Rifle; if you charge a Plasma Pistol all the way up and unload it on a target, your target's shields will usually drop instantly, allowing you to finish him or her off with the SMG relatively quickly.
