I will now let you all know why these weapons are on the list.
Magnum: The Magnum in Halo 3 acts like the Reach pistol in damage, but is incapable of fireing while scoped. This makes it very awful at long range, and at close range it’s better to get the kill with an AR.
Gravity Hammer: This one is here because there’s almost no range with the hammer. In Halo Reach and so on, when you swing, everything in front of you gets pummeled without you being in regular melee range. In Halo 3, the hammer is treated like an alien baseball bat since hitting someone usually never gets you the kill.
Flare: The Flare acts like a Plasma Grenade that can stick to ANY surface. The downside is the damage. Unless you stick a player, you will not get a kill. Plasma nades will kill a player within good range without sticking them.
Trip Mine: Imagine a Warthog coming straight towards you. He’s not stopping. You throw a mine and step to the left. There’s a white light, and debris shoots to the other side of the map. This is UNREALISTIC. This never happens. The other player will always move out of the way. Unless you are me.
Mauler: The H3 Mauler acts like a nuderd Shotgun. It has less range, less damage, and is only good when you follow a shot up with melee. H3’s population is now either pros or noobs, meaning you’ll kill yourself by trying to melee and give a pro a Mauler, or you kill a noob. This is a HIGHLY unpredictable gun.
Thanks for giving feedback!
I think you meant brute/spike grenade for flare. The flare is the equipment that blinds opponents. I think the magnum is definitely the worse but I don’t think the mauler should be on this list. It has a very quick shot-melee combo which can be very effective in the hand of a solid player

Good point.
Against all my CE memories I had to vote magnum. It just sounds wrong saying that though.
the flare was just not that good
The pistol in Halo 3 was weakest in this game yet still effective. a melee and a shot in the head is all it took.
I’ve been able to single-wield the Magnum in this game and get plenty of kills with it. The Plasma Rifle is pretty bad when single-wielding, though.

I like the Mauler and the Hammer because of its high damage. In mission cortana and covenant the mauler is great to take out the flood forms and the hammer can take out a lot of enemies in one swing. I would argue that the Flare and the Jammer and Trip Mine is the worst equipments in H3 because nobody will trigger the land mine in the Campaign and the Flare/Jammer will only be a disadvantage for you.
The flare i have not seen it in any halo 3 match i have ever been in
flare is actually pretty good if you know how to use it
I have been killed by the h3 magnum so i would not say it was useless

The trip mine sucked only plebs would run over that. The mauler was really good, idk why it’s on the list.
Energy Sword. Even a plasma pistol wins, as long as you stay out of melee range.

The Energy Sword is very useless if you are a noob. Use the map to your advantage. Pop around corners.

The mauler is probably the least qualified weapon to be on the list, it’s mainly there because absolutely any ok player knows how to not get killed by it. Kinda like the sword. Just walk backwards while avoiding incoming fire from other players, and start pumping some BR or heck, the Magnum rounds into their face.
