The covenant have energy swords and gravity hammers but not shotguns. Covenant should invest in needle shotguns.
Needle shotgun - Shotgun style gun with needles sticking out in visible sight. When its fired all the needles fly out the gun upon impact create an instant supercombine explosion ending the enemies life. Pump style gun, when pumped, more needles fill the previously fired needles spot. Guns physics would be more of a human shotgun rather then a scatter shot. The needles wouldn’t bounce around and be able to shoot around corners, just a one shot BOOM. Damage would also be modeled after the human SG with close range being the only real way its effective.
Tell me what you think and what else could be added
Keep in mind this is mostly a Halo 6 post since halo 5 is probably to far to create a gun like this.
pretty certain the energy sword is considered their “shotgun” because they are close range weapons but in reach the did have a shotgun or a shotgun counter part, the plasma repeater
While this sounds awesome and cool to use, the sword is the covenant’s main CQC weapon

The plasma repeater was not the shotgun counter part, it was the Covenant’s AR equivalent.
The energy sword and grav ham, are the close range counter parts of the shotgun, even though the shotgun kinda beats them.
Interesting concept but balance in would be an issue since it takes a considerable amount of needles to super combine.
The energy sword is the covenants shotgun …
Have any of you read the thread? He knows what an energy sword or hammer is. Hes talking about a dedicated shotty that actually behaves like a shotty.
I like your idea, op.
It sounds nice and all but the idea of a shotgun seems too crude for covenant tech

Bingo. That’s what I was thinking when I first read this title.
On a side-note, that thing sounded pretty wicked as well.
It could be like a scattershot with needles! I think it would be cool if the needles stuck to walls and stuff and acted almost like the charged plasma caster or the Telesto from Destiny.

Umm what? The repeater was the equivalent of the AR.
Just pick up a scattershot and pretend its covenant.

I’m pretty certain within the actual lore, spartans and elites dont fly twenty feet for a killer lunge. The sword is a sword. And the plasma repeater was their answer to the AR (the plasma rifle is more akin to their smg.)
Realistically OP, a covie shotgun would probably be more like a plasma fun that firese a concusive wave electricity or plasma that does serious damage with plenty of knockback.

if you look at the Manuel if I remember correctly they are beside each other (such as the focus and sniper or the fuel rod and rocket) but I did think of it more of an ar

That doesn’t imply they are counter parts.

The weapon placement in the covenant or elite slayer mode also interchanged them. The Plasma Rifle was the AR equivalent. The repeater was supposed to be more akin to the shotgun for reach, which besides not being very good was also made redundant by the sword.

The Covenant Manuel. Man this sounds good already.
The plasma repeater was not a shotgun counterpart at all your tripping lol
