Archangel Tyrael Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 As the Elites you start out with the repeater. I notice that most of the time, the Assault rifle beats it out in battle a lot. Even if i burst fire it our get in close, i still loose most of the time. All i am suggesting is that replace the repeater with a plasma rifle, I think this would be better. What do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedStarRocket91 Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 plasma rifle is just as useless, if not worse I disagree, it's a much better weapon because it actually does plasma damage rather than bullet damage. It would really even things up in close quarters. Plus it actually fires faster the hotter it gets. The Repeater's fire is slow, inaccurate, and weak. The Rifle is at least powerful and consistently accurate, even if its projectile speed only make it effective at close quarters. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That gun in my opinion is way better than the Plasma Repeater. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Right, you have to get really close with the repeater for it to work good..But then you can just melee someone...But the rifle you can start shooting them from ranged and take their shields down better than the repeater i have tested this, only draw back is the low damage to health, but i am sure if someone has decent aim they can put shots on target, plasma repeater just sucks, they should of added the SMG to Reach for the first objective then assault rifle and then finaly dmr. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azaxx Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 But the thing is it overheats, the repeater continues to fire, and the spread for the rifle is a bit worse than the repeater, I have found Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That... actually makes a lot of sense. I can't believe nobody's thought of that before! But the thing is it overheats, the repeater continues to fire, and the spread for the rifle is a bit worse than the repeater, I have found Doesn't matter, once the Repeater is overheated you have to vent it anyway (which takes much longer than just letting the Plasma Rifle cool) or it fires so slowly that enemies can die faster from old age. Spread doesn't matter as it's a close-quarters weapon, more analogous to the Shotgun than the Assault Rifle. Most players back up once their shields are down, so it works at longer ranges too even if actually finishing players off is more difficult.
