I like it. It can be a VERY effective weapon in the right hands (aka mine).

Five Tenets of Bungie.net Forum Life:
1. Trolls will always be well fed.
2. Blame-ability thy name is stosh.
3. Bungie has no control over retail prices.
4. Watch out for low-flying defense drones.
5. Seven is not optional, but rather, an inevitability.

It's hard to get a good shot in on MP, but when you do it's damn effective.

Hmmmm . . . One of my best friends and my nephew both love the needler. I also like to use it from time to time as well. It's hilarious when you sneak up on a guy and unleash an entire clip of glowing pink needles on him while he's standing in the middle of a level like Derelict . . . with lots of grenades lying around . . . Hehe.

*BOOM!*

It's also a very good weapon for one person to have while playing co-op. One could cover an enemy with explosive needles, such as an Elite, while the other finishes him off.

Its really good for medium range firefights but it doesnt pack enough ammo. I use like one clip per enemy.

THE UNLITMATE NOOB WEAPON!! Its for people who cant aim. Sure for biggining players that cant aim very well its a great gun. Its only good also when on easy or nornmal and u fell like making a grunt fly. Personally I only use to to blow up people when joking around. I perfer the sniper or pistol.

I only use it if it's the only weapon around. It's also good for taking out Elites.

How do you use it properly?


You use it like an assault rifle; hold down the trigger and fire as many rounds as you can at your target. If you use it as a single-shot, it won't do much besides annoy your target and give away your position. Once you've run out of ammunition for it, you can then proceed to use it as a big, purple boxing glove. ;)

Don't think so. I would like to see any (insert n-word here) be consistently successful with it. The skill needed to effectively wield the needler lies in getting your enemies in a situation where they won't be able to dodge properly or are caught off guard. It's also your best friend in Legendary.

when you sneak up on someone then you need to wake up because your having a wet dream. and the glowing "pink needles" is your lust for the dick. so after you clean yourself off go suck your dogs -blam!- then go to sleep. thats my advice to you youngin

man, i've been part of bungie now for 10 minutes, and i already want to git rid of that freak, man, i think he should change his name to, "ibeesanerd" or "not good at halo guy"

i love the needler, it's like the anti elite superweopon.
but the only way you can appreciate it is to be in a circumstance where it actually saves you from getting pasted! but it's one of those love/hate relationships

I like to use it with a combo....like the needler and shotgun or pistol...while they dodge the needles u get them with the other gun.

we r?

It's a good weapon. My enemy had camo on Hang 'em High, and he was looking for me. I snook up behind, and before I did kill him, I turned up the tv, and then I fired all of my needler rounds at him. He said "What the h . . ." Kabooom! Like I said, (this is for the fourth time):
Dual Needlers for 1 person in halo.
16 players on a large map
Have one guy be the victim.
15 players with dual needlers fire at him.
2 needlers x 20 rounds a needler = 40, 40 x 15 playes - 640 needler rounds at one guy! KAAAAAAAABBBBBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM! Have him stand next to a recently destroyed warthog as well. Warthog goes sky high, body does too.

I like it it, but you cant melee anyone with it i.e. Jackals. At least for me. Good whiw invisible guys and Hunters (if you shoot them in the back, duh)
