dynasty is pretty damn right... if anything he is the shrink telling you what you dont see.
shot gun is powerful in one hit up close... but whatever. its all about whether or not you hit the person and there dead in one hit. if you play halo enough you realize that the shot gun really kinda sux.
the plasma rifle can make someone unable to move/shoot at you from medium/ short ranges. and it trears up shields, so if your close to overheating, then smack, and a kill, or with the plasma pistol holstered, switchsmack. and the plasma pistol becomes as good as anything if you are good with it. fastest smack, instant sheild kill, fires faster than plasmarifle, can hide grenades in the charge shot. and when you introduce double smacking, the shot gun seems almost useless due to its inability to work well at medium ranges. 2 shots or even three is way to long of time to leave yourself without attacking. the Ar i find an equal to the PR, but its better against more people where as the PR is better one on one or with a teammate. the pistol is overpowered, but if you play like bungie intended and go custom, its all fine. it has possibly the worst smack that you might use-aside from the SSM.
and plasma tears apart overshield like the player never picked up a powerup.
