I think that you have no idea how game balancing works, that’s what I think.

This idea is one of the worst I’ve seen here on Waypoint, but not as bad as the idea of having to pay real money to leave a match someone once said.

The moment they add reqs into arena is when Halo officially dies. That is literally the worst thing they could possibly do and considering all the poor choices they already made with this game I wouldn’t even give them the idea.

Lol

It does. There is custom games for a reason. Also it’s about balance in arena, maybe in a “non-ranked” playlist, called super slayer or something.

What about Whispered Truth SWAT or Nornfang Snipers in BTB. These r truly insane and somewhat rage inducing

Yeah…That would be fine because the Suppressor is a PoS weapon that needs a boost anyways just to be a viable weapon in Arena.

But what about a Prophet’s Bane or any of the the other insanely OP weapons? Compared to the slight/moderate boost that power weapons provide in Arena, Many other REQs provide a tremendous advantage and are good for many kills, and not just a few.

Some REQs could work as power weapons. Many could not.

i hope you get banned for your actions which broke the rules.

As to your main topic no they should not be added. Even the slightly buffed versions do not have a place. Why? Because when compared to the unbuffed versions (which will still be on the Map) they will be superior. The suppressor difference means nothing cause the gun is useless with or without a buff, however you apply it to the shotty, railgun, or basically any other base gun and you have a power weapon that cant be beat by traditional means. Its an awful idea, it was tested in the beta and was universally hated. Weapons don’t make a game boring, what makes it boring is the players inability to use the base weapons and the general format of the game. Making each weapon a power weapon or simply making some mini power weapons (that were not already) breaks combat flow and balance.

From the beginning of this post some users have shifted my original idea, no mythics. but ultra Rares and down are viable or am I wrong and craxy?

A video game is meant to be crazy and hectic not surounded by “combat flow” this ain’t a science class sir

i feel like adding more playlists would be better but HEY…thats just me

Goodness, no!

Even some plain old Rares like Arclight or The Answer are damn powerful as it is. Most Ultra Rares would be too much, IMO.

Remember Ordnance Drops in Halo 4? Remember how much the community loooved that? Me neither.

I hated ordinance drops I’m saying things along the lines of hey switch the regular sniper for an end of the line type of thing to and maybe throw in a razors edge for a power weapon

I can see how this could work in BTB or Warzone, but in classic Arena I think that would give an unfair advantage to whoever got to the Mythic weapon first. Most every Mythic REQ in Halo 5 at the moment is pretty OP, if you ask me.

Speaking for the ‘boring’ and ‘scared’ noobs, I think that this would ultimately end up creating a massively accelerated imbalance for matches with smurfs that are already unbalanced. I don’t know…I like the thought of being able to use REQs in Arena, but it might actually drive away more people from playing it than it would bring in.

Super Fiesta? It technically adds mythics to arena without making them too OP, or well more OP than they are originally.

There isn’t really a counter to mythic reqs, though. that’s the whole point.
How do you counter someone with a gavel, or an Oathsworn? you just pray he runs out of ammo soon and is too much of a chimp to actually make use of it.
there’s no adapting to that.

the only thing that makes weapons like that approachable in WZ is the fact that they’re stuck on maps that are very large with a lot of players, it allows for focus fire and kiting or flanking, as well as vehicles,

meanwhile if you put a signet on Rig, well…

there’s nothing to be done.

No,it will break matchmaking.
At the end we would have players which you cant stand a chance against.
