Pistol is the most versitile weapon. it is very powerful, you can get headshots with it. it is useful in a massive variety of ranges and requires a lot of skill to use effectively

i love the plasma rifle. it does way more damage on legendary than an assault rifle. plus it freezes people you shoot it with. just run at them while holding the shoot button down and hopefully you can whip them before it overheats. and they are skrewed

Plasma Pistol. The battery doesn't drain as fast as the Plasma Rifle and I can fire a little bit faster than Jackals on Legendary. And the melee is pretty quick too.

plasma pistol all the way..As said earlier it has a larger battery than the rifle, it has the overcharge, fastest melee, and I can fire it like a sonnofabi**. I can fire it faster than the plasma rifle I think.

Here's my reasons for me liking EXPLOSIONS:
* They cause the most devistation
* They leave a mark to show the carnage!
* They look cool
* They startle the enemy the most

The main disadvantages are:
* The magazine size/holding capability (use wisely as this explosive may be your last! Then, you're stuck).
* Anyone can put a rocket/grenade to you at short distance.

BUT WITH ALL WEAPONS... anyone can use them OK, but it's only the people that specialise in the weapons that can use them AMAZINGLY!

In the rocket launcher and grenades case it is judgement that is the key to great kills.

altho pistols are the best overall weapon, shotguns are my favorite. especially in multiplayer games with no shields i just blow away at enemies and shred em. and they rip more pieces off the flood in one shot than any other gun.

i admit there are better weapons than grenades, but thers nothing better than to throw a frag into a group of unsuspecting jackals, hear them screech, and watch their dead bodies go flying as all their shields sputter out

I think every gun has its pros and cons. All that really seems to matter is using 'em right and finding your best weapon. For instince I think pistol takes all. Its well rounded in the sense that it's quick in every aspect it does fair melee damage and its long range. Yet some othere guns have good features like the assault rifle because ammo is pretty easy to find. Shotgun is really really good for the library with the flood out of control. Sniper rifle is great for anything as long as you have time to aim yet I particuarrally enjoi taking down elites up close or takin out jackals really quickly. The 'Hog works well for tight situations allong with the plasma stand (I forget the name). All plasma weapons are good in the sense that the covenant is weak against them. As far as bombs, which made the game a lot easier when i finally decided to use the, the fragmentation has good range and the plasma sticks(plus for messin' around they are real fun to throw ate marines and watch them run like girls covered in spiders) But what do I know I just got the game a week ago and beat four days ago.

Well if you had the patience to read that I am really sorry for but thanks anyway

Also a tip all you probably all ready know is that on normal and easy jackals die in one hit with a pistol. Even with their sheilds up. I my mode for their for their death.
