A successful hit drains this weapon&#8217;s limited battery capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"m-41-spnkr\"><strong>M41 Spnkr<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This twin-tube rocket launcher is perfect if you love dealing splash damage and taking out most vehicles with a single shot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"s-7-sniper-rifle\"><strong>S7 Sniper Rifle<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The UNSC&#8217;s top choice for taking out enemies at range. It\u2019s a high-damage sniper rifle capable of hitting devastating headshots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"disruptor\"><strong>Disruptor<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A specialist weapon that deals shock damage over time with its electric bolts. Multiple hits to a vehicle in quick succession cause an EMP pulse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"pulse-carbine\"><strong>Pulse Carbine<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Fires bursts of five plasma orbs in a row at close range that can track enemies for a short period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ravager\"><strong>Ravager<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Shoots streams of plasma with a bit of splash damage. It can also fire a charged plasma shot when holding down the trigger, creating a plasma pool on impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"plasma-pistol\"><strong>Plasma Pistol<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A close-range pistol that does extra damage against shields with its plasma bolts. Its charged shot can evaporate enemy player shields but does not cause an EMP pulse on vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"vk-78-commando\"><strong>VK78 Commando<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With two semi-automatic or fully automatic fire modes and above-average damage, the VK78 Commando is a decent choice for Halo Infinite players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"needler\"><strong>Needler<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A specialist weapon that fires a volley of crystal shards targeting an enemy. If enough of the crystal shards hit, they cause a devastating explosion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"stalker-rifle\"><strong>Stalker Rifle<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This long-range plasma rifle is slightly above average in competitive play, but the S7 Sniper is preferred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"heatwave\"><strong>Heatwave<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A semi-automatic shotgun firing hardlight damage projectiles in a straight line. You can toggle between horizontal and vertical alignment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ma-40-assault-rifle\"><strong>MA40 Assault Rifle<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to spray down enemies with a more traditional weapon? Then, the fully automatic MA40 Assault Rifle is an excellent pick for close or medium-range combat with its fast rate of fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"shock-rifle\"><strong>Shock Rifle<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Facing enemies with shields or vehicles isn&#8217;t an issue for a player carrying the long-range Shock Rifle, which fires lighting bolts to easily remove enemy shields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mlrs-2-hydra\"><strong>MLRS-2 Hydra<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Locks onto a target and fires small rockets in quick succession. Perfect for taking out fast-moving vehicles or grouped-up enemies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"sentinel-beam\"><strong>Sentinel Beam<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Dubbed a &#8220;sterilizing energy projector,&#8221; the Sentinel Beam fires a beam of energy that can pierce through multiple enemies. Watch out for the strong vertical recoil as well as overheating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mk-50-sidekick\"><strong>MK50 Sidekick<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Effective at close to medium-range engagements, this semi-automatic quick-draw pistol loses accuracy when fired continuously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"gravity-hammer\"><strong>Gravity Hammer<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Swinging this mighty hammer is popular in Halo Infinite multiplayer, because its hits result in a tremendous gravity pulse that damages and pushes back both players and vehicles. Only successful hits drain the weapon&#8217;s limited battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cindershot\"><strong>Cindershot<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A very popular grenade launcher dealing hardlight damage. Grenades explode when they hit a target. Perfect for creating choke points or damaging enemies around a corner as you ricochet grenades off objects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mangler\"><strong>Mangler<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Arguably the most potent handgun weapon in Halo Infinite if used correctly. With a revolver design, the Mangler shoots high-velocity spikes at the target to deal significant damage during mid-range engagements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cqs-48-bulldog\"><strong>CQS48 Bulldog<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Our absolute favorite for close-quarters combat, the CQS48 Bulldog combat shotgun is fully automatic and can wreck opponents in seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"skewer\"><strong>Skewer<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Considered the best anti-vehicle weapon in the game, the Skewer fires a huge, armor-piercing spike that can quickly kill nearly anything. You will have to reload after each shot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"bandit-evo\"><strong>Bandit Evo<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The latest weapon to enter Halo Infinite&#8217;s Ranked play (Season 5) is a variation of the M392 Bandit Rifle with a 1.6x holographic scope, perfect for medium-range combat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Please note:<\/strong> <em>The list above includes all Halo Infinite weapons in Ranked Arena play. We left out power weapons and equipment.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-best-and-worst-halo-infinite-weapons\"><strong>The Best (And Worst) Halo Infinite Weapons<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With 23 weapons available in Halo Infinite&#8217;s multiplayer, players are spoiled for choice.
