A few notes. There are accuracy differences differences between the three Plasma Rifles. The accuracy order is (best to worst): (1) Scale of Soirapt (2) Sorrow of Teash (3) Plasma Rifle. Keep in mind that Plasma Rifles have very good accuracy in general, so the differences are not that drastic (Scale of Soirapt accuracy is excellent but will not beat a Magnum/BR/DMR at medium range). That Blue Plasma Rifle though.... design looks amazing. Until next time Spartans!
Isn't the whole point to using brute plasma rifles to burn through their shields before finishing them off with a secondary like gunfighter magnum? Kinda wish you had a stat for when the shields go down, other than that, great vid as always.
Call me a stat nerd but whenever I do Req Glitch weapons I usually make small stuff that could be really in the game, for example; Laser Attachment + Sniper Rifle = Better Bullet Magnetism, Sorrow of Teash + Storm Rifle = Never overheating and a more accurate Storm Rifle and so on yeah...
Break Spartan Shield data: Plasma Rifle, 4 shots (0.46 sec); Sorrow of Teash, 4 shots (0.46 sec); Scale of Soirapt, 3 shots (0.35 sec). Also, anything I miss or don't highlight is usually in the video description box (contains additional info too). I hope that helps ;)
JJAB91 kinda there is(if u do the custom weapon glitch and put a mythic wpn on a plasma rifle it gets a black/blue skin(just like the grenade launcher if u put t3 wpns on it
Anyone else want a beam rifle analysis video? I'd really like to see if there are any differences between the Halo 5 beam rifle and the Halo 2 beam rifle
It should be noted energy weapons such as this are very good for taking down shields. If you play firefight then specifically the 'Sorrow of Teash' variant is extremely overpowered against grunt mech shieldings.
Gosh, all I can hear in the song is 'Oh, oh, Phaetons' and it's bugging me. Catchy as fuck anyway. Great video! I love the Brute Plasma Rifle, and these analyses will help me use it more effectively. :)
Hamlet Enthusiast just making sure lol. I think it's a combo of low sensitivity and incredible focus. Using his knowledge of everything he's researched for this series, he plays purposefully and tactically
S1erra 107 I see it too now. It looks like the enemies just play right into whatever he needs them to do. Oh well, either it must've taken a long time to record, or his enemies are just that predictable/bad.
it would've been nice if you would've compared Scale of Soirapt's melee range to the energy bayonet's as i'd like to know the range difference to see which is better. It's fine that you didn't but still... would've been nice.
Energy Bayonet/Knight Blade have same melee range, 7.16 m. Scale of Soirapt is 6.85 m, standard melee range is 4.85 m. Those stats were covered in previous videos so I didn't include them in this video, I found it redundant. Cheers ;)
But what about in comparison to the Sword melee range? And REQ cost wise.. That becomes relevant here, since the apperant only upside of the Scale of Soirapt is melee, Swords and Energy bayonets are what players are gonna have to compare it to.
@@GlacierCodfish It also has notable Ammo Efficiency compared to both the prior plasma rifles. Also, noone expects you to lunge at them at that range without a visible melee weapon, so you can actually surprise them.
Hey Aozolai ... I know its really late and the halo 5 train left a long time ago... I unfortunately got my xbox one just now at the end of 2018.... Anyways I really wanted to know why in the description for the Brute plasma rifle it says it can fire between emergency cooling breaks ?
was hoping to see the ttk melee damage the scale does to vehicles. I guess I could go play forge and experiment myself. either way awesome video. thank you.
I think the tier 3 plasma rifle should have double the melee range but throw you into the classic Halo 1 Elite melee animation. It should also flip vehicles like ghosts and mongooses while nocking back warthogs, banshees and tanks ect.
So about 3/4 shots with the brute plasma rifle and you switch to a ballistic weapon for an easy kill I guess. But the weapon switching animation might make the ttk longer ?
The question remains: do plasma rifles do their shield damage vs vehicles or their body damage? Theres a huge difference between shield and body damage for these guns.
I know it's an old comment, but I'm 99% sure they do their body damage. Plasma weapons have always been pitiful against vehicles, even compared to weak bullet firing weapons.
@@jasonhergert1100 holy shit i didnt know that. I always thought the damn shields were impenetrable. Hell firing at it with a friggen ghost did jack shit.
Better than 18 like in every Bungie game aside from CE (Where it took 9 shots, but also applied a slowed movement/turning effect as well as headshot damage in multiplayer) It's quite funny really, they nerfed the damage hard to compensate for dual wielding, but never increased it back to what it once was in the games where DW was absent (ODST, Reach.)
the reason why scale of soriapt is so shit is because 3 bullets and a melee from the others will kill u just as fast. it should have had a different perk.
The base gun is bad. Not only do you have to memorize the only pattern that kills without overheating, but even after that you can't use it for like 3 seconds. You could use any other mid range weapon besides plasma pistol or storm rifle and be better. Plus, it can't pick up ammo from other guns, so you need to manually check if another one has more power left than yours
All these " rifles " its hysterical because they dont have rifling, aka barrels with the bore shaped to stabilize a projectile. I guess its more because of shape classification and not function, still..
Johnny Topside oh I actually enjoy using sentinel beam, I think I gotten that commendation three months ago, other than that brute plasma is still my last weapon commendation

Aozolai Nornfang Mix with plasma rifle.
Aozolai Nice vid

I kind of wish they had blue plasma rifles in halo 5
No there isnt

Me 2

Bru Plasma Rifle? Brute Plasma Rifle? I got you fam!
Too similar to the storm rifle.
It was great running into you man this is shadic959 it was and honor playing with u
Anyone else want a beam rifle analysis video? I'd really like to see if there are any differences between the Halo 5 beam rifle and the Halo 2 beam rifle
Late, but I like how at the semi-auto fire tests at 2:06, they're almost exactly to the beat of the music.
It should be noted energy weapons such as this are very good for taking down shields. If you play firefight then specifically the 'Sorrow of Teash' variant is extremely overpowered against grunt mech shieldings.
Gosh, all I can hear in the song is 'Oh, oh, Phaetons' and it's bugging me.

Your gameplay always looks so purposeful, almost as though it's scripted.
Just find it interesting.
Hamlet Enthusiast be honest here. Are you accusing him of something?
S1erra 107 lol. Nope.
If anything he's just (consciously or not) trying to make it look better.
Hamlet Enthusiast just making sure lol.
I think it's a combo of low sensitivity and incredible focus. Using his knowledge of everything he's researched for this series, he plays purposefully and tactically
S1erra 107 I see it too now. It looks like the enemies just play right into whatever he needs them to do. Oh well, either it must've taken a long time to record, or his enemies are just that predictable/bad.
I'm gonna make a covenant themed laser tag map called "Plasma Center" using only scale of soirapt, increased walking speed, and no melee...look me up
Kingston Gary Gamer Tag? Or did you not complete it?
I always called Scale of Soirapt “One Punch Gun.” I say the infamous “ONE PUNCHHHHH” whenever I’d get it in fiesta too lol
dude, you have a really good choice in music
The next video can you do plasma pistol analysis
DeathLeo19 CHANNEL F*** the Void's Tear.
Hamlet Enthusiast do you speak spanish?
DeathLeo19 CHANNEL
Nope. Why?
Hamlet Enthusiast, Mmmmm..... Nothing
Is it good at breaking energy shields?
I think plasma rifle, magnum combo looks good
You forgot to mention that the Scale of Soirapt, Still one shots, Even when it runs out, Just a side note.
What vehicle would the hardest to outrun? Scorpion, Wraith, Wasp, or Mantis? My vote is the Wasp.
jorge's chaingun that shoots nornfang shots...
enjoyable.
i just saw an ad with the song from your intro and i was like woah
it would've been nice if you would've compared Scale of Soirapt's melee range to the energy bayonet's as i'd like to know the range difference to see which is better. It's fine that you didn't but still... would've been nice.

oh ok thx anyways

love these vids keep it up!
I once picked up someone's Scale of Soirapt and beat a wraith to death it. It was pretty cool
Da faq lmao
Aozolai- That custom plasma rifle is so dope! It is so strong with a two hit kill on a warthog!
+Aozolai what map do you use for your weapon/vehicle analyses
WHY WASNT THIS IN THE CAMPAIGN GOD DAMNIT
They made the energy sword a gun
so its a slightly more accurate smg with bayonet
But it does loads more damage and is three req levels lower. But ya basically
They should’ve added a custom skin if you add light of urs and the brute rifle as a scarab gun
next:plasma pistols analysis
The Plasma Rifle's Melee is probably the hardest one I had ever played with in the entire franchise
how did you get that last plasma rifle, the mod one. the skin looks cool
he used a bug on the weapon pad customisation, mix nornfang with plasma rifle
GaAdMrEiRan117 what about the skin of the plasma rifle? does that change when you combine the 2?
NWOPurpleCobraz yes it does
Hey Aozolai ... I know its really late and the halo 5 train left a long time ago... I unfortunately got my xbox one just now at the end of 2018.... Anyways I really wanted to know why in the description for the Brute plasma rifle it says it can fire between emergency cooling breaks ?
this gun is the oversheild killer!
Ah yes, the secret Nornfang plasma rifle
The Brute PR overheat with 15~16shots. SoT overheat with 34~36shots. The Scale of Soirapt melee damage like fist glove. Overheat with 14~15shots
was hoping to see the ttk melee damage the scale does to vehicles. I guess I could go play forge and experiment myself. either way awesome video. thank you.
I think the tier 3 plasma rifle should have double the melee range but throw you into the classic Halo 1 Elite melee animation. It should also flip vehicles like ghosts and mongooses while nocking back warthogs, banshees and tanks ect.
I like how the PR feels, but I don't like the firing noise. It sounds like only half of the projectiles make noise.
What happens if we use the scale of soirapt against a renforced shield boost ?
your custom plasma rifle reminded me of the scarab gun on top of the UNSC frigate on halo reach tip of the spire LASO lmao
Scale of Soirapt is my favorite of the three.
How did he get that plasma rifle at the end of the video ?
Nornfang + Plasma Rifle at the end. I call it "Bane of Tartarus".
This is late, but more like sacrab gun.
How does Scale of Soirapt fair against the Energy sword and Gravity Hammer?
So about 3/4 shots with the brute plasma rifle and you switch to a ballistic weapon for an easy kill I guess. But the weapon switching animation might make the ttk longer ?
I would love to see a Binary Rifle/ Beam Rifle analysis
What about if the target has improved shields? Would the Scale still one shot him?
Will ads increase scales melee range
But hey how are these Plasma rifles compared to the Storm rifles?? That's the big question
What is that last weapon
The question remains: do plasma rifles do their shield damage vs vehicles or their body damage? Theres a huge difference between shield and body damage for these guns.
I know it's an old comment, but I'm 99% sure they do their body damage. Plasma weapons have always been pitiful against vehicles, even compared to weak bullet firing weapons.
Thank you
What do you call your custom plasma rifle? And what is the lore behind it?
I seriously wish they finished the texture on that gray bluish plasma rifle skin and made it fully blue.
Tyriek Corbett Lol xD
Do the energy sword next
dont autos have a headshot bonus damage?
How does one make custom weapons?
How do you make customs?
thx now i know the data about my favourite weapon 😊
I hope they bring back the needle rifle, plasma grenade launcher, and plasma repeater in halo 6
(Edit) and the focus rifle
Shadowzone25
Needler Rifle= Blood of Suban
Focus Rifle= Sentinel Beam for short range, Any Binary Rifle for Long Range.
I only found real use for them against the grunt goblins. Tears the shield protecting the pilot that stops you from one shot killing it.
Wait you can bust the shields on grunt goblins?
@@wolfwarrior1176 yup. Concentrated energy damage exposes the pilot and you can get the pilot with a headshot instantly killing it.
@@jasonhergert1100 holy shit i didnt know that. I always thought the damn shields were impenetrable. Hell firing at it with a friggen ghost did jack shit.
Whats his armor name?
I've always wondered about the Brute Plasma Rifle... Like it's def fun to use, but 4 shots to break the shields and 8 to deplete enemy health? Wth??
Better than 18 like in every Bungie game aside from CE (Where it took 9 shots, but also applied a slowed movement/turning effect as well as headshot damage in multiplayer)
It's quite funny really, they nerfed the damage hard to compensate for dual wielding, but never increased it back to what it once was in the games where DW was absent (ODST, Reach.)
I wish the plasma rifle had the old sound
Новое оружие? )
at the end should have made it a scarap gun
good against shields but pop out a Magnus afterwards
I knew the scale had a meele damage boost
I think you mean the Elite Plasma Rifle.
Man watever this plasma rifle looked better than halo 2 plasma rifle
the reason why scale of soriapt is so shit is because 3 bullets and a melee from the others will kill u just as fast. it should have had a different perk.
Plasma pistol analysis
Meh. My custom weapon shoots nornfang shots at the rof of the sentinel beam = million shots per second basically.
we better get duel weilding in Halo infinite
Halo 5 plasma rifle is bigger than halo 2 anniversary plasma rifle
Who else misses dual wielding these
The Halo 5 brute plasma rifle overheats WAAAAAAAAAAAAY too fucking fast compared to the original in Halo 2.
I hate how everyone I play against in warzone is a pro😭
More like Shield Melter 9000s
As someone who doesn't play Halo 5, *please* tell me the Sorrow of Teash is terrible so I can call it the Sorrow of Trash
Ehhhh it was everyone's custom actually
The base gun is bad. Not only do you have to memorize the only pattern that kills without overheating, but even after that you can't use it for like 3 seconds. You could use any other mid range weapon besides plasma pistol or storm rifle and be better. Plus, it can't pick up ammo from other guns, so you need to manually check if another one has more power left than yours
Man it doesnt even sound like a plasma rifle...
In Halo 2-3 the sound is much better
All these " rifles " its hysterical because they dont have rifling, aka barrels with the bore shaped to stabilize a projectile. I guess its more because of shape classification and not function, still..
Call of halo infinity t intanfall WARFAR
Yo I was in a game with this nigga the other day. What are the odds
Daddick Rogers Language, Monsieur. (Twirls pencil mustache)
I miss the elite plasma rifles like if u agree

The plasma rifle is the worst weapon, i only use like 2 times and never again, is even worse than AR
Omg this plasma rifle are trash like halo 5
still trying to complete that Brute Plasma commendation.... sweet jesus
Hakuru15 i think it’s going to be my last one...
Even the sentinel beam is more useful.
Seriously.
franwex The sentinel beam is not that bad though. Just remember to fire in bursts.
Johnny Topside oh I actually enjoy using sentinel beam, I think I gotten that commendation three months ago, other than that brute plasma is still my last weapon commendation
