I seem to be the only one who has a little soft spot for the plasma pistol every now and again, and I was wondering, is it any good in ODST? I figured since their using Halo 3s engine it might not be too good against stronger enemies like brutes unless you charge shot, but if anybody knows, is the plasma pistol any good? or is it's best use in the game a shield drainer?

EDT:
Note that I am aware of the obvious effect of a charge shot then punch, I'm asking about normal fire here.

It will probably be the same as in H3.

if knowledge is power and power corrupts, isn't knowledge therefore dangerous?

I'm asking about the normal fire, obviously the charge shot and punch will be effective, maybe with one more punch though since mellee is weaker, but I'm asking about the normal shots.

Was about to post a thread about the plasma pistol but ill use this one.
Hence ODST do not have shields, would the effect of being shot plasma pistol in multiplayer be considered almost power weapon-ish?
