Dear 343 - On the Boltshot

I would like to believe that most of the community would agree with me that the bolt shot is over powered. And really needs a serious nerfing, here is my suggestions on fixes for this weapon.

Pick and choose Nerfs/alterations. I wanted to give a wide array of possible changes that could be made.

  • Make the charged shot shorter Range (preferably Point blank)- Alter the charged projectiles to have damage drop over range- Make the charged shot more accurate (This may seem off, but if you combine it with damage drop off you end up with a more “skilled” weapon)- Make the normal shot more powerful (Say a 7/8 shot kill)- Make the charged over heat time longer (maybe even shorter depending on severity of over nerfs)- Make the gun harder to fire/(release) on death (nothing is more annoying than being taken out by a load-out weapon when you have a Sword/Shotgun/Scattershot)

And to finish, 343 I know you’re busy and all, but these changes would be (VERY 0_0) helpful. This one weapon is the only real ruination of a Halo game I love. That’s right other haters! I like Load-out choices, I like AA, I like Tactical and support packages! I am not saying that the game doesn’t need work, because bluntly it does. But at its core I love Halo4.

If you really are that busy, why don’t you just remove the Boltshot until you have time to fix it.

BTW SR130 PERFECTION MASTERY 8D!

They actually are going to nerf it, its still going to be one shot kill from POINT BLANK. Every single pro and even Bravo has said its OP.

Point blank range.
Reload after each burst.

Your poll should only have the options to vote, “yes” or, “no.”

I think they charged shot should only lower your shields.
