So I had a challenge for this stupid thing, and to be fair I don’t recall this gun ever actually being good in any Halo game. But when you give a challenge for it, and you make the grind difficult enough as is? Yeah, this becomes frustrating. This gun can barely kill anything. The projectiles move stupidly slow and do nothing for damage. Feels like I’m playing as an Elite with this thing and everyone is Master Chief by comparison.
Don’t nerf the other guns. BUFF this thing. Either make the projectiles faster or up the damage.
And while I’m aware that skill is a factor that can improve the performance of any weapon, the simple fact here is that the weapon itself is beyond horrific. If you get a kill with this weapon, its IN SPITE of it. Players shouldn’t be effortlessly dodging at close range. I shouldn’t be needing to lead shots in close quarters combat with this. And it has no range game, so you have to get up close to land hits with it. Using this thing is effectively like giving yourself a handicap, which why is that taking up weapon spawn points in maps if that’s the case? Is its sole purpose for those doing this one challenge?
No, obviously not. The weapon is meant to stand out on its own, but the only thing it does that sets it apart from all the other weapons is how bad it is by comparison.
