We all saw how deep 343 have gone with their assassinations, they look amazing. But can you imagine this?
Wait for it… NOW!
If Halo 4 had the gravity hammer, can you imagine what the assassinations for that massive looking hammer would look like? I think it would look absolutely amazing in my opinion!
I can just imagine the player swinging the hammer or the back of the hammer onto the enemies back and slam them back down again and finish them off by slamming the hammer onto their backs or their head!
Or maybe instead of swinging them back down; smash them upwards and when they go back down at the right time in mid-air: swing them away so they go flying!
What can you imagine the assassination would look like with the hammer on Halo 4 (if there is a hammer)?
What the Chieftan did to Romeo on ODST maybe???

Decapitating assassinations would be cool.
Yeah, that would definitely be cool. I just hope that the Gravity Hammer (if not, an equivalent of it will) appear in Halo 4.
> Decapitating assassinations would be cool.
I don’t think 343i will do that. For a “Mature” Shooter series which has used a relatively mild usage of gore and language within the past, I doubt 343i will want to include decapitations now.

I don’t think they would do such a thing neither. But even if they did, it would be so funny!
How about a home-run swing to send your foes flying?
This may not be related to assassinations, but I think it would be awesome if you could slam the ground with a Gravity Hammer, and anyone unlucky enough to get caught in the AoE would get knocked back/stunned. It would be most satisfying to punt my enemies off a cliff to their doom XD.
PS.
Also… if anyone’s worried about the knock back/stun being OP, a good way to balance it is by making it deplete energy quicker to prevent overuse (and perhaps discourage griefing as well).

That would be amazing! Could get a homerun on that one! XD
Slams the blade in the back into the enemy’s shoulder then rips it out and as he falls to the floor in pain you blast him in the chest with the head of the hammer like a golfer sending him into oblivion.
Frankly, I’m not a fan of assassinations with the Gravity Hammer, since - well - assassinations are “assassinations”, and Hammers aren’t really meant for that kind of stuff. But since flags and skulls can now be used to assassinate, I digress.
Possible Grav Hamm Assassinations should include:
-
Lock the shaft of the hammer in front of opponent’s throat, choking him, then brutally ram it backwards while kneeing him in the back, before twisting the hammer, breaking opponent’s neck.
-
Slash him with hammer blade, spin and whack his head with hammer shaft, then jump into air and smash it down while he is staggering.
-
Hit him once with blade end, spinning him around, grab his head and slam it downwards while swinging the hammer up, smashing his head.
I dunno, like I said, none of these sound “assassin”-like to me. Then again, neither does punching someone’s jaw with a flaming skull.
