I understand the title may be a bit unclear so if you can’t work it out, what is your favourite Req weapon that you don’t see used much or one that isn’t seen as very good? I think personally for me it is the Void’s Tear or the Typon. I don’t see these weapons being used that much but personally I find them to be very effective especially the Void’s Tear.
favorite*** i hate the BOLTSHOT. loved it in H4 Though.
Grinder, Tartarus Gavel, Blood of Suban, Void tear, Arrow of Time, Razor edge, Blissful Summer, and Dying Star
Standard Railgun. May not have the sheer power of its cousins, but it still hits like a truck.
Storm Rifle…Blissful Slumber. Beats the hell out of an AR in CQ.

UK, same word different spelling. I personally like the Halo 5 Boltshot, the variations are pretty great too the Open Hand has some serious range and does a lot of damage fast.

Yeah the standard Railgun has some serious power, the other two just have more convenient functionality really.

The Blissful Slumber is probably the best automatic close range weapon, it would probably be the best overall that isn’t a melee weapon if it wasn’t for the Blaze of Glory…

You don’t see the void’s tear? I find that a bit hard to believe.
I’d say the hydras and the casters. I don’t see a lot of people calling them in and I seem to have fun with them.

Since I only play Warzone Firefight, 99% of the time I see a req weapon getting used, it’s by someone who doesn’t understand how much more effective vehicles are than weapons, and runs out of ammo after killing a handful of enemies. I could give a better answer if you included vehicles in your question, but as it stands, practically every weapon “isn’t seen as very good” in firefight, including Mythics, simply because they’re all far outclassed by vehicles of the same req level.
However there are rare cases where req weapons are useful in firefight, such as Void’s Tears and Splasers against vehicle bosses. And sometimes I find default plasma pistols useful for those annoying situations where I die after getting my Ghost hijacked by an Elite or Soldier, and I want to go get it back. But those are very niche uses, and I’m not sure if they fall into the category of “isn’t seen as very good”. When it comes to req weapons, I’m sure I could give you a better answer if I played PvP Warzone, but I don’t.

Rarely, not as much as you’d expect for such a fun weapon. Yeah the casters are fun, firing clusters of White Scar across the map and waiting for someone to trigger it is always an enjoyable Warzone Game.

Psst, Open hand +damage boost = two shot kill

I’ve never experimented with this, I will definitely have to try that.
I like the Hailstorm, Razor’s Edge and Typhon.
Another honorable mention here is the End of the Line. I think it’s mainly overlooked and underused due to its less damage, being a one-shot kill only to the head of a fully shielded Spartan, but I use it all the time to hone my sniping prowess and consider that it actually takes some more skill to use effectively than the other three.

It’s fun, changes up the combat style since every weapon late game is explosive or a sniper. Also
Speed boost+Ravening Silver/Corpsemaker/vorpal talon+Movement speed/upgraded thrusters mod = Speedy killing machine
Jorges turret + Upgraded shields + (If able to)overshields = Invincable
Any Hydra + Damage boost = One shot kill

Thanks for the combos, I knew about the Hydras but the others are definitely new to me. Overshield + Upgraded Shields and the Whispered Truth is a good one, a good balance of speed, health and damage.
I love the sentinel beam. Melting faces is so much fun

Dying Star, I know it’s a legendary but I haven’t seen a single one in WZ and I think it’s awesome.
Twin Jewels. That thing is a GOD against Mythic Hunters in FF.
If we’re talking regular WZ here, there’s a lot to choose from. Song of Peace, Sorrow of Teash, Blissful Slumber…my favorite though has to go to the Rain of Oblivion, or as I like to call it the Machine Gun Carbine. It’s a precision weapon with the firing speed of a full auto rifle. What’s not to love?
