OP please provide me with a source that shows a single Precursor weapon. Please.
The Flood, for one, and any of the countless civilizations they trashed in their attempts to create the perfect race can testify that they most certaintly do have weapons. If you were to go back in time and steam-roll Native American tribes back before they ever saw the White Man with jets, warships, tanks and assault rifles--and then leave no trace of your presence--would you not call those mysterious devices weapons?
The alternative, of course, is space magic, level: Dr. Manhattan, which I'm sure you don't want to consider as a possibility. Can you imagine an intergalactic race of Manhattans? I sure can't.
But that isn't the point, is it? If you were to give God a shotgun but retain is invunerability, put him up against everything ever, God would win. Eventually, but he'd still win. It doesn't matter how many superweapons the Warsverse has, or how many warriors in its history, they have nothing that can compare with the word Indestructable. Nor, for that matter, do they have anything that can compare with a force that exists across the universe rather than one galaxy.
Wars, for as large as its one galaxy is and as crazy awesome as that one galaxy is, is still being put up against a race of beings that not only are invunerable, but also exist spread throughout the universe. That alone is an advantage that would put even the UNSC at Super-Dangerous-Tier relative to Wars. Shear resource capacity at that level from Halo's weakest faction would be enough to swamp many of Wars' factions alone. Factor in the fact that said faction builds unbreakable technology (as far as Wars' weapons are concerned) and the answer is obvious, regardless of if the Precursors can destroy planets by flicking their fingers, or if they fire spit-balls.
Everything else, three ancient factions of which would give Wars a run for their money, one of which could arguably solo it, are just icing on the Omniverse-sized "screw you" cake the Precursors bring.
Indestructible...in the Haloverse. Just because the forerunners couldn't destroy them doesn't mean they were completely, totally unbreakable. See the ant/steel plate metaphor.
Plus, can I see where it's stated that they're a universe-wide race?Yh I'm pretty sure it's quoted somewhere that they have around 3 million worlds. Billions of stars multiplied by hundreds of millions of galaxies (our estimates)...
at the begining of cryptum it's stated that the forerruners have 3 billion worlds, plus the fact they can litterally build them constantly. so it's rather obvious that precursors have several galaxies under their control, considering how much mor avanced they are than the forerruners.
The Vong likely has numerous galaxies under their belt. And in pure speculation, the only thing that would have prevented them from sacking another galaxy silly is a collections of civilizations equal to or larger than the Empire at full strength. When you start throwing around universes, don't do it with Star Wars. There's no details and it's pure sketchy, which means any war could easily turn one sided.
Also, we've been completely ignoring the Unknown Regions. The guys there alone could take on the Covenant and UNSC in a single battle, and probably, like the rest of the Galaxy, capable of going toe-to-toe with the Forerunners with the assistance of fore-wielders who can one-shot fleets when they're high up.
