Useful Equipment?

Is any of the equipment actually useful? So far just the shield has been. Grapple is too short. The dash isn’t too bad. I like it. The other one, I still don’t know what it is or have seen anyone use it. Overall they don’t really hit a good space yet in the game. Adjustments need made in power level or frequency.

Repulsor has a use case in some game modes but if its just a raw gunfight its purely for your instant reaction to grenade lobs or telling them to back up forcefully.
Cloak is cloak
Overshield is overshield
Grappleshot has its usage in mixing up how you peek corners by suddenly appearing from much higher above than what your enemy was expecting you to do and of course hijacking flying vehicles that dared to get too close OR grabbing weapon spawns from further away.
Sonar is useful for guessing if someone is corner camping behind the door without risking your life and telling other people there are people.
You probably already are fairly aware of how good the dash is.
Shield you are also aware of seemingly.

I didn’t even attribute cloak and overshield to equipment since they have existed long before. Maybe they should bring the jet pack back for equipment lol

Just don’t add armor lock. Evade would be good. Also hologram would be nice. Could add a new one Craig you become super op and you use a mac cannon and slow down time and everything you use becomes op you can use a nuke and a glassing beam. Also can send in 100,000,000 IA that kill all enemy’s get free sprint and armor lock and can’t be hurt or killed. Perfectly fine to have in the game also made it where you can only get it in a 100 dollar loot box with 1% that you get it. Its 1,000 dollars to get it for free tho so steal your moms card and spend it on the thing. All that was a lie but the first part about not adding Armor Lock but add Evade and Hologram but mostly Evade. Also I mean the halo reach Evade not the broken halo 5 one if you were wondering.

Yea.
The grapple shot in my opinion is long enough. Halos height ceiling for jumps is higher than other games so you should be able to hit your mark with a shot. Also with halos slow TTK and generous health, you should be able to close the distance to nab any item you maybe after if you are playing smart… Everything in halos sandbox has always (or was intended) to have a level of skill attached to it.

The evade is a nerfed down halo 5 ability and I love it.

The repulser is highly useful for knocking back those pesky noobs who live to dash in close for a melee. Combo with a strafe to knock them back where you want to like a dead end or corner. This makes it to where they cant escape. I’m yeat to actually repuse a projectile tho.

Sadly I have figured out how to best use the drop wall. It seems like some of the walls are already shot out the moment its deployed and I’m already half dead when I think to use it. Maybe as a defensive tool pre dropped to defend an objective would be the way to use it idk?

Didn’t even know that’s what the repulsor is used for lol. Haven’t seen it in action and couldn’t figure it out myself what it’s use is.
