Greatest Halo Weapons of All Time
I always wish to get an Energy Sword in Halo 5. Just kill Elites with Energy Swords, attack opponents and Elite bosses, and they're doomed.
How could you not like this weapon? You run so fast with it (because it doesn't weigh you down), and it kills nearly everything in one hit!
It looks awesome and works well, but the Rocket Launcher is better in terms of quality.
I must say, the Flood was absolutely killing me on one level in Halo 2, until I found the shotgun. I cleared the level in only five minutes with this bad boy!
It looked really cool and felt like a powerful weapon with its kick and damage.
Shreds through the opposition like the wind through a desert.
Way more fun than the Energy Sword. It is ridiculously fun to smash your opponents six feet under with one swing.
No explanation is necessary, but the problem with this weapon is that it runs out of energy just too quickly.
It's an awesome weapon because it delivers instant kills to almost any close opponent.
A weapon with as much explosive power as two grenades. Something that can home in on annoying vehicles. OMG, what kind of weapon could be this awesome?
This is the most powerful weapon in my opinion. Very useful. I like this better than the Energy Sword.
The two-barreled design is distinct and original! When I see it, I think Halo.
Halo 3's Needler stands out to me as it fires fast, accurately, and looks cool. Out of every Halo weapon, this one screams Halo the most - at least to me. In what other franchise can you fire pink homing needles that blow up when enough of them hit an opponent? No, really, I'd like to know, because I'm pretty sure Halo is the only one.
This thing is so powerful, people HATE it. If you know what you're doing, you can beat people with Energy Swords and Rocket Launchers with a Needler.
I love this weapon. I like how it takes a few seconds for the shots to take effect.
Halo Infinite's Assault Rifle is better than Halo 3's Assault Rifle. Halo 3's Assault Rifle is weak. Halo Infinite's Assault Rifle is better because you can get more kills with it.
The Assault Rifle felt powerful. Unlike Halo 3's Assault Rifle, this one was actually fun to use.
The most iconic weapon in all of Halo. Everyone knows this silhouette.
Brute Chieftains are absolutely horrible with their epic speed and gravity hammers. The option to headshot them with a one-hit kill from a hundred paces is just insane.
The Sniper Rifle is a terrific weapon in the hands of a master Halo player. It is fun to pick off enemies when they least expect it.
I like the Sniper Rifle because of its design. Especially in Halo 3, it's a massive style piece.
This thing can kill an Elite in only three hits! Completely semi-auto with a decent scope, this thing is amazing.
The Magnum is great, but in the CE version, it's only three shots. It is insane.
Most overpowered weapon in Halo history, but only in its Halo: CE version.
Granted, The Answer is the absolute best variation of this gun, doing almost twice the damage and having a better scope, but the normal SAW is amazing. The ability to shred through Promethean Knights with only a few bullets is a feat unmatched by any other gun.
Halo 5's SAW is fantastic - impossible to hate. The Answer is the best SAW, and not just that, it's the best Halo 5 weapon. The Answer is also annoying to other opponents.
A fantastic addition to the rapid-fire club. This weapon tears through enemies like no other and has one insanely dope design.
This is almost as good as the Rocket Launcher in quality. It should be ranked higher.
Halo 4's Incineration Cannon is better than Halo 5's Incineration Cannon because Halo 4's version is stronger.
Should beat the Energy Sword. You bring an Energy Sword to an Incineration Cannon fight, and you're going to die.
A powerful, badass weapon that shreds.
Why did no one else mention it?
The Knife is ICONIC.
This is my favorite Halo weapon of all time. It kicks so much ass in ODST and Halo 2.
The perfect counter to overpowered vehicles.
Do you guys think the more powerful the hit, the better the weapon is? Well, hahaha, instant-kill weapons are terrible. This is Halo's best weapon because you have to think strategically to use it. Not like any of you Energy Sword or Rocket Launcher fanatics would know! This is Halo's best gun - fun and useful in every way.
The most used mid-range weapon. This gun has appeared in every Halo except 1, Reach, and ODST.
Very cool design. Awesome against Grunts.
Bring the strongest explosive you have, reproduce it by five, attach a clip for them, and then mount the result into a gun as psychologically terrifying as the firepower you made. This is how I describe the Fuel Rod Cannon (or Fuel Rod Gun).
Already, rocket launchers pack a big punch, so imagine having five rods of pure destruction that can be reloaded as fast as the rate of fire. I am sure the Fuel Rod Cannon never came in multiplayer because they thought it was too powerful. Sure, it's extremely rare to find, but when you do... oh boy.
A pistol that shoots detonatable grenades is fun to use. You can either stick it to enemies and watch them run around hopelessly, or you can turn it into a trap and explode enemies that get close enough.
Detaching this from the ground and going around shooting with it makes you feel like a true tank.
Don't know why this isn't on the list, but this is the best of all the sniper rifles.
This thing does so much damage! I once one-hit killed a Hunter with this! The only problem is it has no ammo.
