i can honestly say the repeater, the rifle is borerline useless sometimes, and you are screwed when it overheats, repeater overheats but keeps shooting, you vent it when you want to, that’s far better.
Fist’s. They don’t overheat, and never run out of battery power.
It’s a shame. I loved the Plasma Rifle in Halo:CE and Halo 2. It was rare on Halo Reach though to be honest.
Repeater - Never overheats!!!
Depends on the situation you are in.
To break of shields in the campaign is the plasma rifle more useful. I never use the repeater in the campaign because feel the is no use for it.
Weapons I never use or rarely use in Campaign are:
- Assault Rifle - Shotgun (only against hunters) - Plasma Rifle (only against shields) - Plasma Repeater - Spiker - Needler (only against brutes) - Focus Rifle (only against the fuel road shade turrets in the package) - Gravity Hammer - Energy Sword
