AR and Needler are the strongest. Put them on opposite walls with a BR and Sidekick start. I get we won’t see that this flight, but it would be nice to play eventually.
Weapons will be balanced for launch, but you are correct AR and Needler need a nerf for sure
Needler i agree but AR? i felt like the commando was better than the AR even the pistol but thats from my playstyle i guess but you are the 1st person ive seen thats praised the AR interesting…

I feel like the AR is jus the like the HR or H4 AR. Those shred also. Keep that in mind.

It’s been pretty common since H5 for people to say the AR is OP. Which I think it is. Too accurate and it has a headshot multiplier. I use the sidekick because I enjoy precision weapons more but I can’t deny the AR just -Yoinking!- shreds.
Guess ill need to mess around with it more and see for myself i mean i used it and its alright IMO. But like you i do prefer the accurate BR’s and pistols going for the headshots and if preffered the commando so far when no BR was in the map.
Ar is perfect for a start and encourages you to go look for weapons, i would never swap a br or command for an AR, remeber how it also changed game dynamics in mcc halo 3 and reach when it was br start, the AR would become completly unused if it were relegated to a pickup

The AR in its current stand has either too much damage or too much range or both, one of those needs to be nerfed, doens’t have to be both, I’m fine with leacing its range the same but trailing the DMG off or I’m fine with leaving the DMG, but shortening its ER (effective range)
I think the AR/BR/Pistol all feel great where they are, I always get rid of the AR for a BR when I can, if I have the AR I use it to pepper the enemy then switch to Pistol for head shot!
The Needler is pretty strong though, not sure what to do with it though because I really like it being a good weapon, like H2 made it so weak it was pointless, maybe keep its power bit give less ammo and have it spawn less often or something!
Personally as it sits they’re good as they go. Needler has been a shredder power weapon since Halo 4 so might as well keep it that way.
As far as AR/Pistol, They’re pretty much spot on. I really don’t want a repeat Halo 5 were every weapon is useless except the pistol so personally its nice to see the current AR actually good. If we’re gonna nerf the AR gonna have to either drop damage on the Sidekick or slow the rate of fire to avoid a pistol only sandbox IMO
