no relly like i must know SRS

What is the point? every1 kno needler is worst but wbout plasma rifle its so cool

[cat]

for multiplayer of course because in singleplayer its pretty nice for grunts no?

The plasma rifle does more shield damage than health damage while the Assault Rifle is the opposite. In CE it also has a stun effect that is useful though when against pistols there's no reason to pick it up, kinda like how the DMR effects the sandbox in Reach.

Single player is a bit of a different story, it's function is to be fun to get to get shot at by it, though it's still great to use against both covenant and flood.

The plasma rifle can output a lot more damage than the plasma pistol without overheating when you keep the trigger held. On legendary it's quite reliable for rushing most elites 1v1 as it will make short work of their shields and then kill them during the stunlock. It's not very efficient for ammo but briefly picking one up is a good way to make your preferred weapons last longer.

They have a lot of places where they come in handy especially during Pillar of Autumn and the ship section of Truth and Reconciliation. I would say that in the second half of the game it's mostly outclassed by the shotgun.

In multiplayer magnum is king.

needler is worst?
On legendary it can dish out elite that have cover with no problem.
Exploading with almost same damage as plasma granade if you dished out full clip

its cool weapon on easier difficulty, I like to challenge Elites with this one.

Plasma Rifle vs Flood is better than the Assault Rifle, in my humble opinion. The weapon makes the Library, Two Betrayals, Keys, and the Maw much easier. Hale CE's Needler is only something I pick up as a last resort to be honest.

[Silus]

it's meant to have a stun effect but its broken in this port
