343i what have you done… AGAIN??? Trying to master or even use the Spartan laser has become crap! It now takes normally 2 shot, just because I didn’t get the entire beam to hit a ghost or mongoose! Its as bad as the binary rifle. Why make it sooooo weak? There where to flaws to the laser to begin with;
- You have to charge the gun up to fire! Making the player have to time the shot right while being shot at!
- A laser shows while charging the gun! Giving away the players position.
NOW!!!
3) The entire lasers beam has to hit the target to destroy say a ghost or mongoose (when the vehicle has fun health)!!!
Well done 343i… you did something newin Halo 5 and the community basically said, “WHY”
I have no troubles at all hitting a vehicle that is driving by and kill it. I know it sucks vs spartans but that is because they wanted to make it so people used it on vehicles
Just use it in btb. I finished it with minimal problems.
I know there are some issues with the halo 5 laser, but it has always had to charge up a little, it was never just a pull the trigger and shoot weapon.
I despise that weapon. I’m glad it is they way it is.
Apparently they are making some tweaks to it with the next update.
I hope their tweaks in the next update are:
5% faster charge up and cool down times
+25% base damage
7% faster shot time (faster beam burst.)

Wait… Binary Rifle is bad?

Is 5% enough of a change where you would feel a difference??
It could definitely use a faster rate of fire for sure!

Works out to a 10% reduction in total shot-taking time. It should be somewhat noticeable.

You know after the update people are going to complain they can’t aim the thing anymore right 
The OP is certainly right about the gun getting a significant nerf. It is a bit underpowered.

OP also isn’t saying anything that hasn’t been said here already numerous times over the last few months.
I hit the back wheel of a GUNGOOSE when it was sideways with a full splaser blast at point blank, and it look zero damage at all. It needs a boost, majorly, however I heard that in this update it is getting boosted.

There are a couple of things that could be boosted. (I’m looking at you Mantis.)
Uhm… you guys do know hes joking right?
What happened to it? TL;DR?
It went from being known as one of the most dangerous weapons the UNSC had at their disposal and became a cat toy.

Why would he be joking?
