The [[Vex]] '''Line Rifle''' is a directed-energy weapon deployed on the [[Hobgoblin]] chassis. <ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Vex_Arsenal#Line_Rifle|Line Rifle]]''</ref>
The [[Vex]] '''Line Rifle''' is a directed-energy 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>

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 the rare Hobgoblin [[Axis 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.
