    Personally think the disruptor is a bit slept on. It took me a while to realise it's full auto and if you land enough shots the enemy dies of tick damage. Also the EMP is useful too.

    The main reason I dont like the Bulldog is that when faced against a sword, you've got much less room to get a bulltrue. You have to get TWO full shots on the enemy, at a range where they can already lunge at you. Not a great time.

    @uyeah1234 Před 2 lety +237

    Personally, the cinder shot is S tier. A good user can literally leave you with no counter play with it. It constantly displaces you, fires very quickly, tons of crowd control, and get out of line of sight kills. It's not even that hard to use. Unless a spartan is a vehicle or legit flying, just bouncing it if a wall or ground near them is a guaranteed hit. It also works at mid range so you can avoid and close range weapons. It does everything while having a good mag for a power weapon.
    I also think the heat wave is a B tier weapon. It melts at close range just as much as the bull dog. Sure the reload is trash but it is better bull dog in every way. All you have to do is use it vertically and lead your shots. Landing one good shot at mid or close range completely melts shields and makes them very weak. The ar, bull dog, needler, all need to either spend more time doing the same amount of damage or be closer. I'm not going to discard how hard it is to aim with it but even hitting half your shots makes it the 2-3rd best close range weapon.

    The Assault Rifle is hands down my favourite gun to use in this game. Even in the other Halo Games i would always use it since i always loved it's iconic Design. The Reach version was my favourite of the series until Halo Infinite's version came out. The Battle Rifle has always been a weapon that feels good to use but i never had the best skill with it for some reason. I just tend to miss more of the shots i should be hitting but that's usually do to my inconsistent aiming each match. One match i am good and landing my shots, other matches not so much. But the Skewer is easily the best weapon in the game and the most rewarding and most punishing weapon. Hit your target? then it will instant kill them, vehicles too. If you miss? well hope you can dodge bullets and reload because you'll need to.
    But we can all agree that we HATE getting daily challenges that involves the Ravager.

    Hammer needed to be higher IMO. Sure you lost lunge and it's got a huge windup. But in return, you can hit someone in tumbuktu and kill them. I think it's a fair trade. I love the new hammer. It feels like it should: An area weapon. it was mainly used to go from person to person with lunge, when now, you can just stand in that same group and kill them all with one swing.

    The great thing about the pulse carbine is that it's really meant for long range. It locks on HARD, it's mostly meant to be used as a weapon you can take a peek take a shot and return to cover.

    Man sniper rifle will always be the best weapon in the game, you can’t put it below S just because its hard. Each weapon has a skill curve, but a tier list is about %75 power %15 availability %10 skill curve. A tier list is supposed to be “If you master this gun, this is how good it is.” Apply this also to the disruptor, which is easily B tier. Situational gun handling is different than a skill curve, I’ll grant you. i.e. The pulse carbine is a very strong gun but only in certain circumstances. This does not apply to the sniper, it is hard to master but it is absolutely the strongest weapon in the game besides possibly the skewer or rockets.

    • @Nikos.
      @Nikos.  Před 2 lety +1

      I'm with you on the sniper, and I destroy with it. I put it on A because I find it slightly disappointing on arena modes with its uncomfortably high first scope zoom level and low ammo reserve. It's god tier in BTB. I still think the disruptor is a bit lame because it comes with no ammo for its damage output and utility. Let me know how to make the disruptor work because I wanna know :D

    • @prezp00nage24
      @prezp00nage24 Před 2 lety

      Disruptor is not a perfect weapon by any means and it doesn’t work effectively in all scenarios but its ranged ability is overlooked. Since it can apply DOT, its kill ability at longer ranges increases. Combine it with the ability to EMP Banshees and Wasps in particular and it becomes a weapon with a lot more utility. Use it like it is a covenant carbine from previous games and I think you’ll see it move up to somewhere between B-C tier. Despite the gun looking like a pistol, it does not shine in close range combat.

    I feel like this list would vary depending on if you're playing multiplayer or campaign. in the campaign the cinder shot absolutely destroys enemies because most of the time they're all clustered together and standing around explosives, this weapon creates absolute mayhem. The shotgun is also super effective in the campaign.

    I love these videos, but since we're in season 2 it'd be nice to have an updated list, because my personal opinion would be that the power tables have shifted in the weapons of halo

      I'm gonna have to consider it, I don't know if I'll go back and make another, but I'll keep this in mind!

    "Now that the shotgun no longer exists." Look how they massacred my boy. Without a one shot close range gun, the sword becomes basically unbeatable

    Haven’t played Halo in years but this looks so much worth it.
    But regarding the SPNKR, weren’t they lock-on in the past?
    At least I remember they did.

    Repulsor is still one of my favorite equipment items since it counters short range weapons like the gravity hammer and Energy sword BUT ALSO ROCKETS AND GRENADES
