The plama pistol is a wepon that involves no skill to weild you just wait for it to turn red and fir it almost homes at 90degree angles i think that if the thing was to more like the halo1 pistol it would not be as anoying because the halo1 plasma pistol did not home in as much makeing it a little harder to use. Buy doing that the plasma pistol battle rifle probably would not be called the noob combo any more.

true some people say it's easy to doge, but i don't think so, then so many people use the noob combo with it, and that's what makes the p-pistol stupid somtimes.

In addition to the fact that you're wrong anyways: They made it home less in Halo2. If you're talking about H1, you'd be right.
And the H1 human pistol does not home at all, duh.

If your dual wielding then you can block the PP bolt from hitting you. You simply press your melee button right before it hits you, and the bolt will disapppear. Only works if your dual wielding.

As blunty as it is tastelessly said:

No. If so, then they might as well take out the plasma pistol altogether.

They made the charged bolt travel slower. That should be good enough.

No one should ever be afraid of looking stupid, so long as they are making a rational effort to expand their understanding.

Make it home less, or make it travel slower... either nerfing would render it more useless than a needler.

I put on pants for this?

why are you dissing the needler?

It's not home. It's hoNe. Sorry, that was driving me crazy.

And I like the Honing of the Plasma Pistol. It makes you react quick once you see an opponent with one. I don't think the honing should be removed.

actually he spelled it right, Honing means to shaperpen a skill, homing means to lock-on

On behalf of homeless plasma pistols everywhere, I'd like to say we are offended by your title.
