Subject: Zero Bloom Needle Rifle

Hello. Just asking if it has a faster kill time than the ZB DMR.

I think the NR is pretty beast, and I've out-DMR'd lots of people using the NR. Just wished the scope was further zoomed.

Are you asking about (DMR VS NR) with or without bleed-through? Or both? And also, full bloom, reduced bloom or no-bloom?

I just tried it in custom games and the NR won 100% of the times.
If you can make a little damage with a grenade or something the DMR will win.

The magnum beats both of them.

They're close, but the NR is a tad bit slower.

That is wrong!

The DMR is slower! The NR wins!

Nope. DMR > NR in ZB bleedthrough.

Listen to what I say or else you are ignorant! I said I just tried it in custom games! (I tried it 10 times just because I also thought the DMR was faster).

The thing is that Needle Rifle gets bleed-through while the DMR still is 5 shot. This gives the NR the ability to kill people with 6 bullets (DMR = still 5) while getting bleed-through and so killing faster! The NR fires 6 shots faster than the DMR fires 5. FACT!

That's what I thought, because it seems to fire much faster and kill faster than the DMR. But I'm like the only person in the MLG playlist that uses the NR so I didn't know if it was true or not.

Magnum has a zb-bleed kill time of 0.001 so lets keep that out of the discussion.

Why even bother, really?
I rage.

If you've been winning battles with the NR, you probably having been up against anyone good. That or your brain's selective memory is in full effect.

Pretty sure the DMR beats the NR no matter what percentage of Bloom is thrown onto the weapons.

False. If... No, wait! Just read what I wrote earlier in the thread.

It all really depends on the skill of the other player.

Assuming players are of equal skill level, of course. Obviously not 100% of the time, but if you gave an AI bot a DMR and forced it into an empty box with another AI bot equipped with a NR, the bot with the DMR would win 100% of the time. The DMR does more damage per shot, has no fire rate limit, and is equipped with a 3x scope vs. the Needle Rifle's 2x scope. All the Covenant weapons in Reach are a joke compared with their human counterparts.

Excluding MLG I prefer the needle rifle to the DMR.

DMR should out kill the NR close-mid range, longer ranges the NR will win.
