Loading up a razorback full of marines with these weapons is honestly the most fun I’ve had in halo infinite. Seven Marines worth of unstable skewers tends to get the job done
Seeing as how chief weighs a couple hundred pounds with that armor, yeah I agree. Grunts can't weigh that much and there's no way they're attached to the ground. Physics are silly
Having like 5 Marines with Arcane Sentinel Beams on a Razorback absolutely slaps lmao. Sentinel Beam is alot better in the game in general i feel like.
The only thing I don’t like about the bulldog is in multiplayer it takes between 2-3 shots to kill someone point blank as opposed to every other Halo Shotgun. It feels wrong. But I like the bulldog that detail aside.
@@JamesSmith-bc5fp The Sword and the Hammer both fill the role of 'one shot point blank' weapon, which is why the classic Shotgun was cut (for now). The Bulldog is great, you just need to not use it like the OG shotty. It's full auto and has decent range, it actually pays to stay outside of melee range so you wont trade.
@@JamesSmith-bc5fp The Bulldog isn't a power weapon. The old Shotgun was a power weapon. That's the vital difference here. They could bring the old Shotty back as a power weapon though, that would be sick.
For a power-weapon variant they would have to bring back the old Shotgun. The Bulldog's Rate of Fire with the OG Shotguns damage would be straight up broken, outperforming even Rocket Launchers and Sniperrifels lmao.
I have high hopes for more Variants in the Future, I really want Halo 5 levels of Chaos in Super Fiesta 14:25 You literally turned your game into Ace Combat.
I'd just like to say, Halo Infinite was my first Halo due to being on playstation for most my childhood; but I own a PC and since it came to pc I tried it. Halo Infinite now sits at the top of my top games list.
I would suggest the master chief collection then infinite isn't the worst halo game but it is by no measure the best. Plus gotta get the whole story my guy
@@Jarsia I bought it tuesday and it is really fun. Played Halo CE for the first time it's pretty good for such and old game but i have to say that i don't like how some of the levels drag on forever.
i've seen it tested in multiplayer, and it's still lower power- it will still only burst shields on spartans on the first shot, so i'm not sure how well it will do against sword elites outside of easy difficulties.
@@fusionwing4208 I kind of find it annoying in campaign- it works well in multiplayer, but a non-power close ranged weapon has very little place in campaign- they give it to mid-level brutes in place of the spiker, and it's significantly less problematic, as unless they air-drop around you, you can literally stay out of their range and kill them with a normal assualt weapon. Seems like it'd have made for more interesting gameplay to give them grav hammers, with the more limited actual range (for heroic/legendary, where taking chip damage from the bulldog just leads to less aggressive play, because you can totally outrange a shield and bulldog brute, but it's a hitscan rapid fire weapon, so there's not really a good way to 'play clever' in close)
There is also a unique heatwave that is just called "Heatwave" the only indication it is unique is its white skin. It has less spread in horizontal mode as well. It can be found in a hidden area near forward outpost termanius (I think that's what it's called at least) there will be an arcade machine next to it.
Well, first thing I thought when I saw that was that ricochet projectile type weapons are much less useful in open spaces. I bet firing that thing into one of the many rooms scattered about might be a lot more efficient.
1:29 - "Attention human soldier stationed at base delta-bravo-turnipfruit. Your team may have won, but your brother is STILL DEAD. I know this because I'm sitting on his legs, and they're finally starting to smell good." You... you little monster...
Just something to add: Bloodblade: deals more damage than the duelist, Hardlight, perishes enemies. Duelist energy sword: allows you to jump higher and run faster, further attack range, faster swing rate. Conclusion, use bloodblade for mor tankier enemies such as the brute chieftains and elite generals, use duelist for weaker infantry like elite minors - elite ultras.
Honestly, I just used the impact commando as an all rounder, tapping my shots and aiming for the head when possible. It's basically a better ar, but with way more controlability. It's high capacity helped me alot, although if on a story mission I'd definitely not bring it for most, going with more specific weapons than it, like the shotgun for maps with tight rooms, or an explosive gun for hunters because fuck armored targets. It's not bad, you just need restraint, and to aim for the head. Same thing for backdraft cindershot, it ain't bad, you're bad, it's alternative fire is literally on your ability to predict and point at an enemy, it's like the rpg from half life.
Using the legendary / variant weapons feels way too bothersome in the campaign 'cause you never find ammo for them. You either have to switch them out almost immediately or have to carry them around empty until you find a ammo crate, which won't really happen for power weapons. If only the normal versions of the weapons would refill the legendarys / variants when you walk over them, but that doesn't happen either.
I kinda wished that the AR Variant would have been that. 60 round mag, less accurate, less damage. Like the OG AR. The Longshot AR really feels lackluster because you can just use a BR instead lol
honestly really like the impact commando. double the magazine capacity and as long as you don't full auto at range and let the bloom reset then it's a good all-around gun.
Awesome summary, thanks. Some thoughts after finally getting all of them myself: - Flexfire + Striker can be monsters for dps. On a Bandana run you can just hammer away at people at max firing rate without losing precision. The large circle on the Flexfire seems to be just an annoyance, as I can shoot it pretty fast and it still seems to hit pretty close to center, probably almost as good as the S7. This becomes irrelevant with Blind on too. Also with the shocking drop wall upgrade you can still disable vehicles pretty quickly with the Flexfire. - I might just rush the Duelist when trying LASO. Feels like it would be a great tool for agility shield siphoning. - Convergence bulldog is the shotgun I always wanted for sure. But it is such a beast it would be a nightmare to balance in multiplayer and would probably have to be a power weapon with more limited ammo. Hilariously fun to mow down targets in the campaign though. - Bandana + Arcane = lmao
2 hours into the campaign I am already bringing a razorback loaded with marines using Volatile skewers. They actually fire at very long range targets so I feel like driving a Katyusha.
Are these all Canon and in the game? I feel I am at the end of the game and don't have some of these and I have killed every HVT, got every FOB and collectable
Me waking up today like "Omg! It's the 8th!" only to realize it's UTC... Oh well, it's been ages since Halo 4, I can wait a few more hours for 5am, Dec 9th... but hot damn, all the weapons look like APEX heirlooms! I love them all!
Duelist energy sword and Riven Mangler are my two go to and carried me on my first run on heroic and have been doing extremely well for my legendary run The sentinel Beam and Spiker are amazing at filling razorbacks with
I used rapid fire pulse carbine + battle rifle for my legendary run. Pulse carbine for shields and rifle for the head shot. Carried me throughout the campaign
Fun fact most if not all of the upgraded weapons spawn on the multiplayer maps with the hex vaults (and specific maps spawn specific upgraded weapons in certain places. sometimes) however your more likely to get the standard variants in the vaults. I've also noticed that the wepons that would be counted as secondaries always spawn as their upgraded variants in the vaults and never as their standard variants. Good luck in the field spartans.
I like the Riven Mangler and Striker Sidekick a lot. Simple, Pratical, and you can have them almost indefinitely. If I had to choose a Power Weapon, the Tracking SPNkrs have really gotten me through a couple really tough battles since I got them.
Is it actually possible to get weapons like that from FOBs? I would’ve loved to be able to call in Hyperious Chopper. I tried looking everywhere for it.
You forgot to mention that the Rushdown Hammer and Duelist Sword can both jump high and move faster than the normal versions. Also the modified Bulldog and Commando have more bullets and the Plasma Pistol can shoot a shotgun of charged shots when you charge it.
The single tap capacity and improved zoom (1.65 over standard 1.4) give it incredible versatility. I used it through most of the campaign’s final missions refreshing it at kinetic ammo caches. Most unshielded brutes go down in three or four headshots, which at close range on full auto is about an eighth of a second.
The backstory behind the striker pistol is that they took jun's sniper rounds and shoved them in a pistol. And with the arcane sentinel beam they took the sniper rounds and decided to make a pinpoint accurate SMG out of them
The buffs for the pursuit hydra is an increase in damage for the alt-fire mode, better rocket manouverabiliy, smarter rockets, quicker lock-on time, capability to lock on to multiple targets simultaniously and faster rocket velocity.
I wish you could refill the ammo with the standard variations found on the ground. I know you can find ammo stations, but some of them are fun to use and run out of ammo almost immediately.
The enemies are bleeding, you just don't see it that much anymore. If you unload an AR clip into a dead elite, you can certainly still paint a wall purple.
I can see 343 adding more Legendary weapons over time with events, expansions, or something similar to Hitman 2016's Elusive Targets with temporary Enemies that disappear if not killed in time.
The Calcibe Disruptor and the Arcane Centinel Beam are just great. Absolutely powerful even in legendary, extremely useful to remove shields and kill quickly. Get five marines in a Razorback with five Arcane Centinel Beams and enjoy the massacre they cause. Even in LASO they melt foes, which is ridiculous.
14:20 I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who equipped all my marines with it in a Razorback and just went purging everything in existence. It’s hella funny to see a sword elite go, “This will be my greatest hunt!” Then die literally a second after saying it to sentinel beams
I'm guessing special weapons aren't refilled by walking over common variants of the same gun, right? But are they refilled by looting the matching ammo box?
@@halhala2 Do you know if they can be refilled by looting the matching box? I'd really like to be able to refill my ammo once I unlock the Sidekick variant.
How do you get these? 65% complete campaign for me so far. Idk how. Mainly the diminisher of hope, the elite blood energy sword blade thing(bad with names) it says I have the duelist energy sword and the rushdown hammer.
How do you do that grapplehook punch ability? I just beat the game on Legendary and have everything fully uploaded and I still don't know how to do that lol
You missed the Unbound Plasma Pistol. By which I mean yes, you covered its primary fire, which is weaker, but its charge shot differs, firing a cluster of 3 charge shot pellets that do the same damage as a regular plasma pistol charge shot in a very tight spread. Also, I'm not sure, but I think the Unbound Plasma Pistol's charge shot also has faster shot speed. It's not hitscan levels of speed, but it's definitely significantly faster.
Let me know which gun was your favourite!

9:44 The funniest part of this video is where you're chasing the Unggoy Grunt while it's trying to flee.
9:00 Master Chief collects br and proceeds to mag dump into nearby marine’s face
The unbound plasma pistol comm grunt was hilarious, i laughed for 5 minutes straight
I can see 343 adding more Legendary weapons over time with events, expansions, or something similar to Hitman 2016's Elusive Targets with temporary Enemies that disappear if not killed in time.
The Calcibe Disruptor and the Arcane Centinel Beam are just great. Absolutely powerful even in legendary, extremely useful to remove shields and kill quickly. Get five marines in a Razorback with five Arcane Centinel Beams and enjoy the massacre they cause. Even in LASO they melt foes, which is ridiculous.
1:16 [Sad howling squeal]
8:17
Chief: (Grapples onto an brute)
Brute: This will be my grav...OOF!
Its chief*
And thats a brute and not an elite
@@lamtung5300 After a whole year, I finally fixed it.
With weapons like these it's no wonder why the covenant couldn't defeat Atriox
I love how the legendary needler is simply the assault weapon from The 5th Element.
i can't wait to spend entire missions with only one weapon because i don't want to throw my unique weapon away and im holding out for an ammo box
14:20 I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who equipped all my marines with it in a Razorback and just went purging everything in existence. It’s hella funny to see a sword elite go, “This will be my greatest hunt!” Then die literally a second after saying it to sentinel beams
I'm guessing special weapons aren't refilled by walking over common variants of the same gun, right? But are they refilled by looting the matching ammo box?
Yes. You’re exactly right. It’s a little annoying but forces you to be efficient with how you use them.
@@halhala2 Do you know if they can be refilled by looting the matching box? I'd really like to be able to refill my ammo once I unlock the Sidekick variant.
@@devilpistons1269 Yes that’s what I meant. I used the longshot AR for most of the campaign’s final missions that way.
@@halhala2 Ah, good to know, thanks
Is there no upgraded heatwave?
How do you get these? 65% complete campaign for me so far. Idk how. Mainly the diminisher of hope, the elite blood energy sword blade thing(bad with names) it says I have the duelist energy sword and the rushdown hammer.
How do you do that grapplehook punch ability? I just beat the game on Legendary and have everything fully uploaded and I still don't know how to do that lol
5 Marines with Upgraded Sentinel beams is the clear winner.
5 marines with The Answer from halo 5 would be hilarious
BTW the long range ar turns the gun into a precision weapon allowing for 1 shot headshots on unshielded/armored enemies
Mum can we have plasma rifle?
"We have plasma rifle at home"
Plasma rifle at home: 3:45
Mum, I'm not gonna complain but that seems really nice.
Love that the upgraded rocket is literally just the H2 rocket
You missed the Unbound Plasma Pistol.
By which I mean yes, you covered its primary fire, which is weaker, but its charge shot differs, firing a cluster of 3 charge shot pellets that do the same damage as a regular plasma pistol charge shot in a very tight spread. Also, I'm not sure, but I think the Unbound Plasma Pistol's charge shot also has faster shot speed. It's not hitscan levels of speed, but it's definitely significantly faster.
I never knew you could use the Diminisher of Hope or the Elite Blood Blade.
I think you get them from playing the campaign.
These are all from campaign
Missed opportunity to make the stalker rifle variant purple with a green scope 😬
9:50 grunt voicelines are fucking golden
