All you have to do is be a pro witht he sniper and you can kill anybody in one hit close or far.. so how can you say pistol is bull§hit when the sniper takes 1/3 as manys shots

I think your all stupid, three shot pistol kill, close range or far, pistol owns, RL good, but only four shots and you run the risk of blowing your self up, Ill take the pistol over any other weapon, doesnt really matter what my secondary weapon is. sometimes I wonder why I even bother with you -blam!- sticks.

pistols are probably the most effective and smartest weapon to use. the best weapon is the sniper rifle. if you are actually good at halo. then you can shoot them in the head and take their rockets or whatever they might have but the 2 best guns to have in most levels is the pistol and the sniper. 3 shots to the head with a pistol and 1 shot to the head with the sniper.... very effective. but that is you are good. it's pretty pethetic if you have to resort to the rocket being your strongest weapon... come on people... don't get newbie sendrome... please. good luck and keep playing halo

Most powerful weapon in the game is the Scorpion Tank round.

Best Weapon in the game is the M6D Pistol. (Because):

2x magnification, 50cal ammunition (12.7mm) Semi-Armour Piercing, High Explosive rounds. 12 rounds.

Now shut up.

I would say that any weapon is strong in the right hands.

Looking at these forums:
* A lot of people have stuck with the pistol, so much that they become 3-shot-kill pistol masters.
* Some picked up the Needler for a perculiar reason and never let go. Now they do extremely well with it as many people underestimate the Needler's power.
* A lot have a Sniper Rifle in their palms. Some are average, while a select few have taken Sniping to the next level and are now Masters.
* Some players that like a more up close and personal approach have picked up Plasma Rifles, AR's and Shotguns. These guns don't need any skill to fire, the skill is the movement around the foe that keeps them alive and firing.
* The Rocket Launcher owns all many because the 1 round is deadly. Get the crosshairs on the enemy at close to medium range and pull that trigger, they're dead. The skill of Rocket Launching is waiting for the perfect moment to take out mutiple targets wih one round. For example judge firing a rocket into the path of an enemy Warthog from long range is probably the most satisfying shot you can do. These people that can do great judge shots are the masters of this weapon, as anyone can do it from a close range.
* The plasma pistol is for those players who are trigger happy. Send a charged homing round at the player and take him out with some really fast trigger pulling. These guys definitely do their job.

Yes they are the strongest weapons because shotguns arent as powerful from far away and you need alot of pratice to be good with a rocket launcher from a distance. Overall my favorite is the sniper rifle because i am a master with it.

pistols are the ultimate weapon. you can create an old western style shootout since they kill in one or two shots. Headshots are incredibly effective and no one can stand against me when i have a pistol.

i'm definatly not saying their the strongest weapons, but they are certainly the most wellbalanced weapons, between range, accuracy, power, and clipsize.

Halo not just a game but a way of life

in the right hands the pistol can be the strongest and deadlyest weapon during a multiplayer game.

All weapons have pros and cons, except the pistol. the pistol is highly over balanced.

Sniper Rifle: Tiny clip, powerful shots, long to extreme range, slow melee, slow reload
Shotgun: Large clip, powerful shots, Minimum to point blank range, medium melee, slow reload.
AR: Large clip, weak shots, medium to short range, fast melee, reasonable reload
Rocket Launcher: TINY clip, Lethal shots, medium to close range, slow melee, slow reload.
Plasma pistol: large clip, overcharge downs shields, medium to close range, fast melee, no reload.
Plasma Rifle:large clip, stuns, medium to close range, fast melee, no reload.
Needler: reasonable clip, explosive needles, close to minimum range, slow melee, medium reload.
THEN WE HAVE THE PISTOL!
Pistol:Large clip, high powered shots, all ranges, medium melee, fast reload
NOTE***** PISTOL KILLS IN THREE LONG RANGE HEADSHOTS! NO OTHER WEAPON CAN DO THAT THAT EASILY AND STILL BE EFFECTIVE AT CLOSE RANGE!!!!!

Don't get me wrong, i love the pistol, its just the most highly overpowered weapon in the game.
