I mostly use the Plasma Pistol, because I can fire as fast as I want. When I have the chance I use the Shotgun.

PP for me. lately i rule with the PP. I found a way to fire rapidly and i mean rapidly, very accuratly. So in SP i on heroic i can take down an elite with one burst of energy and and one eight round burst. Tight Ass

Old GTs; RebelRobot, Flamedude

for satisfaction i'd say close up with shotgun or a rocketlauncher in the face.

but for quick elite kills the PP or needler.

Me: "OMFG, Dude... wtf!"
AbolitionofMan: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to betray you."
Me: "That's the 4th time in this game alone!"
Chris: "Third, besides he had the flag I was trying to stop him, how was I supposed to know you were there."
Me: "I said, 'I got the Flag, don't shoot.'"
Chris: "Well those Wraith shots take a while to reach you."
Me: "You were right next to me, I had killed him and a minute passed before you decided to shoot."
Chris: "Hahahahaha, yeah... that was great."

S2 AM all the way... one shot to the head means you're dead.

It all depends on what's available, but I like to use the Needler in Legendary.

  • 06.29.2004 12:14 PM PDT

How ya goin?

i like using plas pistol charge shot first then taking out the human pistol and shooting him in the head once or twice (its especially handy for getting yellow elites)

I put plasma rifle becuz its the coolest one....But I find that the plasma pistol is much better and not with the crappy overcharge I mean when you got a really quick triger finger you can take out multiple elites with ease....needler is fun too....shotgun is pretty cheep.....human pistol ,well, if you can take out the shield with another weapon its great but otherwise its average....

I use a combo of Needler and PR, along with grenades and smacking them in the face. When I get a chance I use the sniper though. It's so fun.

I use whatever but usually some plasma of some form as it is very effective. I also found that when there sheilds are gone there stunned for half a second which gives you time to smack em in the face and keep em stunned.

Needler for me, it makes stuff blow up, what more could you want.

Otherwise stun with plasma pistol power shot then stick a plazzy G. Basically I like them to explode.

Neddler over most weapons. But only if the Ocation is just right. Second to the Needler is the Plasma Rifle. Some quick 8 shots to the head will ussualy do the job.
