[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] NARUTOSROCK189 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ArchedNature [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] NARUTOSROCK189 It may be stronger than the SMG, however it's absolutely deniable for the assault rifle. I've compared the powers of the spiker and AR. Although I have no facts and it isn't very reliable, some people will agree that ARs kill faster than Spikers. It takes like 7-8 spikes to take down shields. It takes around that many to kill someone. The time it takes for me to take down shields, an enemy could have been killed with the ar.[/quote] Nope, just tested it 5 times, the Spiker kills faster than the AR by around a second.[/quote] Then give me legitimate proof then, if you can.[/quote] This also doesn't prove people use the spiker more than we think. Thought I'd just say that.

Inb4Hylebos The spiker is, in fact, the most powerful automatic weapon, at least when dual wielded. It is the only other weapon when used like this that can kill as fast as the BR and carbine without being a 1 shot kill or using melee.

[quote] NARUTOSROCK189 Brutes were in the Covenant long before the war, and they were on Reach during the invasion, they just weren't the main infantry.[/quote] Ohhhh alright I didn't know that, thanks for the insight.

Wow, this thread had 117 posts... until I posted this. And Spikers FTW!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ShadowX777 Why? I don't get it, how come Brute technology is on Reach? Does this mean that other weapons that brutes use will be in Reach also? Like the bruteshot, mauler,etc?[/quote] Brutes were in the Covenant long before the war, and they were on Reach during the invasion, they just weren't the main infantry.

.....? I never said always for just hogs. I said this about a multitude of things, and that doesn't mean I'm aiming at a warthog. Yeah, I'll shoot a guy on foot, and then get gunned down by a turret, so I was aiming at the warthog while aiming at a guy on foot. THAT MAKES SENSE. Also, I've never tapped the trigger in ANY shooter, especially Halo. I seriously want to know how you got somewhere in Halo.[/quote] Rapidly tapping the trigger is something that people have been doing for ages to keep accuracy. Also The Spiker does about 60% more damage than the M7/Caseless Submachine Gun and 20% more damage than the MA5C Assault Rifle; on Heroic difficulty, it takes 20 Spiker rounds, 24 assault rifle rounds, or 32 SMG rounds to kill a human Marine. This makes the Spiker the most powerful full-auto projectile weapon in the game, but this is balanced out by the slightly reduced rate of fire and the fact that the projectiles are not hitscan[/quote] If you're talking about recoil, then I understand this now. However tap the spiker made it less likely for me to kill my target than before, and is your information accurate? Because it sounds like you got it off of a Halo wiki.[/quote] I'm not talking about recoil, any weapon in the Halo games(and most FPSs for that matter) that is automatic loses accuracy from repeated fire, this is cancelled why tapping the trigger really fast, it can also help you shoot the Chopper's cannons faster. Go test, the spiker is stronger than the AR or SMG.[/quote] It may be stronger than the SMG, however it's absolutely deniable for the assault rifle. I've compared the powers of the spiker and AR.

I think the success of this thread is indirectly related to Hylebos and his love for the spiker.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] NARUTOSROCK189 I'm a 38, if that's what you meant by high. And if the spiker is strong, people would use it. NO ONE USES THE DAMNED SPIKER![/quote] I do, and I'm thrilled to see this! I just hope that they let us use it in loadouts in custom games.
