Out of all the weapons that are similar to each other class wise (i.e. the rocket launcher class) among the 3 factions (UNSC, Covenant, and Promethean), which do you think are the best? Which ones do you have the most fun using? I’ll post my opinions below, with best in bold and most fun in italics. Both bold and italics shows I think the best is the most fun. This is only based on the default weapon, I’ll post the best variants award at the end. I would like to make sure everyone knows these are my OPINIONS, from my limited game time and my experiences using these weapons. In no way am I speaking for everyone else here.

Variants - UNSC due to The Answer, Whiplash, Nornfang, SPNKR Prime, Blaze of Glory, etc.
Rockets - UNSC/Rocket Launcher
Snipers - Covenant/Beam Rifles
Assault Rifles (Autos) - Tied between UNSC and Covenant. New tuned AR is really nice, but the Storm Rifle is a powerhouse.
DMRs (Semi-Autos) - Covenant/Carbines
Pistols - UNSC/Magnum
Grenades - For reliability, UNSC. Plasmas are nice, but require a lot more precision. Splinters are always fun to watch people walk into, but are basically used as panic grenades.
Grenade Launchers - UNSC/Grenade Launcher is my life.
Shotguns - Promethean/Scattershot
SMGs - Used to be UNSC/SMG, but as of the November Overtime Update nerfing it into the ground, that has shifted to the Covenant/Brute Plasma Rifle.
Turrets - UNSC/Chaingun. The Splinter is real fun to use, but not always very reliable.
Variants - All of the Reqs have some sort of purpose, so I guess I don’t like any over others.
Nerf should be its own faction with the current H5BR its sole weapon.
