What some good ways to utilize the Suppressor? I recently finished my AR commendation and I want to work on the Suppressor, but the thing is hard to use. So, what are some good tactics to have in mind when using it.
Use Active Camo, Hardlight Shield, or Hologram. Get really close using any of these and you will tear through people. Never engage multiple enemies simultaneously using the Suppressor, and make sure you utilize map dynamics to take routes that allow you to flank the enemy and get into range without getting killed.
It’s only effective at REALLY close range. As such, your loadout and tactics should revolve around getting your opponent into that area of efficiency. Use it like an SMG, not an Assualt Rifle.
Unless you really want that helmet from maxing forrunner loadouts I wouldnt bother.
The suppressor just isn’t that good and it pains me to say that I use to use it all the time. It has really strong recoil, bad bloom, SLOW projectiles and not nearly enough aim assist to make up for it. I recommend the storm rifle. It will do anything a suppressor will, better, and much more. The storm rifle does not recoil at all, it’s bloom recedes much more rapidly than the suppressor’s, it’s projectiles move considerably faster, and difference in point blank kill time is negligible.
go for killsteals in rumble pit
Be within two feet of your enemy, because any range greater than that will see 90% of your shots miss. Hold down trigger.
The Z-130 is a close range [hardlight] bullet hose, and is horribly outclassed by every other automatic weapon in the game, except at point blank range.
Use high sensitivity too.

I’ve used Active Camo, but it didn’t work as much. Hologram is by far the best when using the Suppressor.

I agree. I’ve found that Hologram works well with all the automatics, particularly in Rumble Pit.
The strategy I use when I have a suppressor is to drop it for a better weapon the first chance I get.
This strategy has worked well for me in the past.
Try using the support upgrade Sensor in conjunction with stealth ambush tactics on small maps.
Dexterity is also useful, so you can use a decent primary and rely on Suppressor as a replacement for your melee attacks.
Dart around in someone’s face like you’re on crack
Gave up on it. Not fun to use. If you care about your K/D it’s gonna tank when using it. It’s not worth my time.
