Fuel rod canon has no place in that slayer map. There is overpowered and then there is that pos. You can get 20 kills on any map, but go to that one and even the noobest of noobs becomes a herculean spartan. It is stupid and should not be there. (Before you respond, remember this is MY OPINION)
I respectfully disagree. The fuel rod cannon shots are slow moving and have almost no splash damage. It’s either hit or miss.
Which map?

My guess would be Regret…

I guess he means Regret? It’s not on any other maps is it? That map is basically about controlling OS and Fuel rod though. Needler is also beast on that map however.

QFT.
Fuel rods are garbage in this game. It’s no wonder they’re so low on the REQ card requirements.

I didn’t know. I haven’t had much chance to get into MP, but that’s going to change this weekend.
Fuel rod can be great if you spam it a medium to close range.

lol yeah I think I’ve had one match where I actually did work with it, now the needler on the other hand that -Yoink!- little shard cannon is legit.
needler is boss on that map
I love THAT map. Screw the classics because THAT map is by far the best one. Also the fuel rod gun is by no means overpowered.

Nah fuel rods great one direct hit kills people and for taking down the enemy core it’s a beast.

I disagree. If you’re good with DMR, then controlling the Fuel Rod becomes unnecessary. OS on the other hand is a different story. That must be controlled to have a chance on Regret. I love Regret though. Besides Plaza it’s probably my favorite arena map

I feel you need both OS and Fuel rod to prevail on that map to be honest, it’s all well and good getting the OS but if a fuel rod user gets the drop on you it’s kind of pointless having it other than stopping the enemy team from grabbing.
It’s only worth anything if you have a substantial elevation advantage (hard to achieve without making yourself a target in many cases) or if, as you say Sierra 117 SAS, you get a direct hit… which is difficult considering the slow moving projectile glows like the sun and announces itself loudly to anyone you’d have time to shoot it at.

In a match of regular guns and melee you will not touch me MOST TIMES, but get the cannon you will beast me, stay till the next match and I WILL DESTROY you without your overpowered pos
I don’t have a problem with the fuel rod gun, but I do prefer the Hydra like in the beta.
I hate fuel rod cannons in Halo 5. I immediately sell all of my REQ cards when I get them.
I respect your opinion and believe the fuel rods can be incredibly dangerous to score balancing . However , let me insert my opinion : while the fuel rod is extremely powerful , it’s also like the bazooka slow , and can be dodged with a bit of skill . Perhaps this is what 343 was thinking when they bounce this weapon?
I don’t agree that it’s over powered - at least not in the context of it being a power weapon, but i do think it has too much ammo in slayer.
And with the increased mobility, you practically have to use it in cqc to guarantee a hit
Halo has and should always be about teamwork, map and weapon control if your not controlling the battle field you deserve to be killed by Fuel Rod wielding noobs maybe the better question would be who let theses “noobs” get the Fuel Rod in the first place.
- Teamwork - Map Control - Weapon Control
