With Infection, may come a new sword REQ.

Games Halo 5: Guardians
1

Alright, we saw a green energy sword in the Infection teaser. Prophet’s Bane hilt, normal blade.
But what if this isn’t just the Infected’s Sword, but a new WARZONE REQ.
I call it:
Infector
Level 9, Legendary (No Mythic)
Unlimited Ammo, anyone who gets hit becomes Infected and unable to spawn in Power Weapons, Vehicles, or Power Ups for the life after being hit by the Infector.

Or maybe, a completely new Category of Power Weapons: Infected Weapons
My theoretical Sword could be one, the Red Sword, the Club, maybe a hammer.
All of these “Infected Weapons” are Legendary, obtainable at Level 9 with unlimited ammo.

Or maybe it could become a power-up. Your weapon can Infect people and cause them to not be able to spawn in ANY REQS.

What do you guys think?

That sounds annoying. IMO

Kinda the point. But really late game annoying.

More then likely they didn’t plan on it at first, but honestly there’s a number of possibilities.

No that would be garbage. Maybe you could do a sword with unlimited ammo and fast speed.

7

probably if it is a req enhanced speed and lunge range, and probably longer dash and faster. probably above/around red sword in terms of level and rarity.

Not a joke bruh.

Too OP

12

I think people would just suicide the next life so they could spawn in REQs…

Hm…True. Then a fix would be that only weapons, melee, or vehicles can end the Infected mode.

14

It should probably give a greater speed boost, longer lunge range, and maybe make them bright green with reduced weapon and melee damage for their next life, making them an easier target.

15

I don’t really like this idea.

Plus, the purpose of the 9th req level is to allow the ability to more easily stack powerips/weapons. So, nothing should ever be a level 9 req…
