Maybe its the OCD in me, but it really bothers me to mix and match weapon skins. I am not sure how many others are like me but, if I’m going to use a weapon skin I would like it for all of my weapons.
I can understand some sets being a one off. For example I got a good laugh using Lord of the Fries and Last Slice because of the South Park reference. But the majority of the weapon sets being incomplete doesn’t make sense to me. I still am confused why there is an ODST themed set without an SMG skin? IMO most of these incomplete sets are better than the complete sets.
Not including the HCS skins, there are 16 complete sets (Pistol, AR, BR, SMG, and DMR) and 21 incomplete sets. Now I could see a few just Pistol/AR sets but, 11 of them???

If they are to add any new weapon skins into the game I would really hope they would add some that would complete some of these incomplete sets. Personally I would love to see a complete Steel or UNSC set.
If they were to release the missing skins of any of these incomplete sets what would you want to see?
I’d like to see them release more boomco skins; the smg is already made irl, so they could just do a copy/paste job using the real ones as a base.
I used to be like ya OP, if I were to use one skin I had to use it for all my weapons. But time went by and I have different skins for each loadout
Gotta point out one thing tho, the br, dmr and smg skins which are called bloodthirst, clash and potence if im not mistaken are more or less part of the same set (easy enough to make out from the color scheme.)
its just missing the AR and pistol skins for those, which i suppose was intended by 343 to allow people to use a pair such as blue team/noble/osiris/odst along with these 3 weapon skins.
I’d prefer it not go by what gears4 does and force me to go through 200 skins just to find the one I’m looking for. Seriously, that game is a hassle because they feel the need to have an ungodly amount of skins for every single weapon possible.
I like the variety they tried to go for but I think it just muddies the req pool. Hopefully for H6 instead of unlocking them one at a time you can unlock the entire set
It’s because the magnum and AR are the universal loadout weapons in Halo 5. Unless you are playing Breakout, Infection, SWAT, Snipers, BTB, Grifball, or Action Sack then you will be starting with the AR and magnum. Hell, even some of those gametypes feature the magnum or AR. You see them the most often so they get more skins.
I will agree that it is very annoying and I’m very glad to see that all the weapon skins from the past two updates + the loot crate skins have been made for every weapon.
Also, Err, Arr and Locked and Loaded are a pair. Same with Old Abe and the wolf skin. They share a common theme just like the food skins, BoomCo and the MoR skins.
I want rainbow skins like Ehhh, Ar and Locke & Loaded for the rest of the loadout weapons. 
Isn’t “Locke and loaded” and “Ehh,Arr” a set? They are very similar.

No, they are not. They are separate skins but yes they are very similar. However, please do not revive/bump old threads. Thanks!
