Does anyone else feel that a lot of weapons need buffed?

Games Halo Infinite

Pulse carbine
Ravager
BR (kinda)
Plasma pistol
Bulldog (most definitely)
Hydra
Commando
Sentinel beam

Would love to use these more often but other than the BR all of these are best kept on the wall lols.

Bulldog is a wierd one, I’ve actually lost ranged fights against a bulldog and I had a BR, twice now, it’s left me flabbergasted.

Is the Hydra even a Gun? It feels more like an ornament. I have tried to use it multiple times with no joy. I had a challenge where I needed one kill with the hydra. I was play CTF on BTB, the map where the flag spawn is in a room with four tunnel entrances in. A hydra spawn is located in this room. I start camping the room with the hydra. Not long later, the enemy comes in and grabs the flag, I am able to shoot him four times, pretty close range and he melee’s me with the flag twice and kills me. For such a big gun, how can 4 shots not kill someone?

I avoid the hydra like the plague now.

Hydra good for busting vehicles that’s about it :+1:

BR is in a good spot.

Commando just needs to be deleted. It was my favorite until it was nerfed into oblivion.

There’s 100000+ posts on how crap ravager is.

I think bulldog is in a good spot.

Everything else agreed on.

Most of those are either fine or just need some tweaks like ROF or damage. I feel like I just don’t understand how to use the Pulse Carbine, there’s no way it’s that bad.
The Commando needs to do more damage and kick less, should be better than the pistol in the right hands. I often trade my sidekick out for a commando hoping it will be. Gosh, I want this one to be good. I miss the DMR.

Every time I use the commando, I lose. I just can’t get kills with it. I feel that it needs more damage and increased magazine. It’s a neat looking gun and I like the scope. Also, the ravaged is total garbage, but everyone knows that.

I typically get kills with the Commando at long range tapping the trigger for semi auto, cleaning up other players engagements. The same technique occasionally gets me my own kill but the the weapon’s poor damage throw that off. It’s absolutely NOT meant for hosing people in close quarters [though you can switch to it for a one-shot], or to be a replacement for the AR, but it SHOULD have similar handling and TTK to the BR in my opinion.

  1. Pulse carbine could use a slight buff to lock range and width.
  2. Ravager needs a major damage buff with its charged shot to be useful at its jobs, which is to hurt vehicles and area denial.
  3. BR is… fine, actually. With good aim, the BR dominates the mid-range fights with few competitors.
  4. Plasma pistol is also fine, its job is to break shields and it has a surprisingly effective lock range.
  5. Bulldog ABSOLUTELY needs a buff. Right now it is just as viable to keep your AR or Mangler and close in for melee. You only pick up the Bulldog because shotguns are inherently fun to shoot.
  6. The Hydra… yeah maybe. The blast radius needs to be a little higher, not much though.
  7. The Commando needs a slight damage boost, or a larger clip, or bullet magnetism on par with the BR. Only one of those solutions, though.
  8. Sentinel Beam can be incredibly effective but relies on excellent target tracking to be useful. Maybe widening the effective beam would bring it to a good place.

the main problem with the commando is reticule bloom
