The Covenant Empire uses plasma-based weapons. Most of their weapon and armor technologies are reverse-engineered from Forerunner tech. Unlike their human counterparts, Covenant weapons deal tons of burn damage. These burns are instantaneous and the wounds are sealed shut upon impact, causing third-degree burns. Near misses from Covenant weapons also give off extra heat, resulting in damaging the target, even without direct contact.
