I don't know I like the Halo 3 Needler. It's pretty good in open areas especially snowbound. I almost :'( got an extermination with it. Ended up just being a triple coz it didn't have enough ammo to kill the final enemy :/Well it's more reliable than the Reach Needler. That thing can't kill anything but Grunts.
Wat?!
Have you tried it against brutes? It kills them in about a second! Next time your in Reach, play through Exodus on easy and rampage through with a needler. You will see how much that thing destroys the brutes.It also killed them in a second in H3 and H2. I wasn't impressed.
Brutes are the lowest of enemies, which is why I didn't bother mentioning them.
Needler ranking with all enemies in consideration:
CE > H2 > H3 > Reach
Explanation...
CE: versatile, multiple targets affected thanks to blast radius and EMP damage, art. multiple supercombines on dead and alive enemies.
H2: allies could still get supercombines, multiple supercombines into one living enemy. When dual wielded, quite powerful. When single wielded, artless.
H3: artless. Enemies try to dive from it. Only good for killing 1 enemy at a time. Return of multiple supercombines on dead bodies but it's difficult due to instant detonation.
Reach: same as above but now supercombine doesn't work on Elites if they still have shields.
