Halo 5 | Plasma Casters Analysis

[@Aozolai]

*Update* First. Many people have requested for me to be more socially active and interact more with viewers. I try my best to read as many comments on my KZbin videos as I can, but as you can imagine I can’t read them all. So, the second best way to interact with me will be by Twitter. My account is Aozolai (like my KZbin name). I usually post sneak-peaks of what I’m working on ;) Second. Destiny 2 is out, so I might do some weapon analyses for it (won’t be any time soon since I need to level up the weapons). Love it or hate it, my channel will still mostly focus on Halo content. Until next time Spartans!

[@rorysinden6038]

Aozolai do you do open lobbies?

[@Zrmbe]

Aozolai It's nice that you'll be more interactive with your viewers 😄

[@dnkspnk146]

Aozolai what map is that?

[@darthvader4594]

Aozolai you are the bomb yo!

[@darthvader4594]

Aozolai i think the hydra is the human equivalent of plasma caster don't you think?

[@kapkankapkan8370]

I honestly feel like you don't get enough appreciation for making all these videos. You put so much hard work into them and all the information is precise and accurate. So thank you Aozolai!

[@Aozolai]

I actually would like to know how close my data is to the true values that 343i has ;)

[@megamanzfan]

Same here! It inspire creativity/choas.

[@MarvinAmbon]

In case you're wondering the best scenario's to use each weapon: Basic Plasma Caster: Charged shots for attacking the armory in WZA and killing bosses like hunters and ghosts. Scourge of Fire: Treat non-charged shots like a fast grenade launcher. Prefer to use attacking/defending confined spaces. White Scar: Charged shots acts like traps for defending staircase to the core room in WZA, especially good paired with advance sensors.

[@9000Dogs]

In case anyone here dislikes these: don't sell them. They do immense damages to bosses in warzone. Charge shots have incredible damage potential.

[@SharpShooterS205]

You are the reason I started playing Halo 5. You made analysis videos to help me. Thanks for every thing!

[@SharpShooterS205]

Thanks Aozolai!

[@SharpShooterS205]

I'd never think my comment would be noticed! I'm so excited right now. Thanks!

[@SharpShooterS205]

Also, keep up the great work. It'll keep you moving on!

[@5upernooma994]

Yo I appreciate u getting us all this info on the weapons in halo 5

[@Aozolai]

Thanks bud, this Plasma Casters video was wicked difficult

[@gizmo946]

Ye did good :)

[@Lord_Muggs]

Gizmo He usually does considering all the work he puts in. I'm surprised that he didn't show gameplay like usual, but that's hardly a reason to complain.

[@TS-bh7hn]

Can we all just admit that halo 5 is a genuinely good halo game? Sure it fell short in campaign in terms of story in development, but almost every other aspect is fucking amazing. Multiplayer, customs, forge, attention to detail, community support, soundtrack, innovation, etc.

[@bennygoodmanisgod]

T S I'm not a fan of the new art style. Something like halo 2 anniversary would've looked nicer

[@TS-bh7hn]

Flipyap I'm split personally. Look at blue team, I think it's atmosphere and art style was near perfection. I think for multiplayer and the rest of the game overall was brightened due to community feedback instead of bad art design

[@leepaul9948]

T S well if you are split pray to god that the halo wars 2 art style will be halo 6’s art style

[@Sn0w037]

yeah

[@rodrigomelendez1545]

@@amycox7508 it doesn't even take you that much to unlock everything in halo 5

[@tbc1880]

When you finish the video and look to the comments and realize you are early. Could have said first....

[@romanace3432]

A weapon from 343s art style that looks like a Bungie era weapon.

[@dragonranger8456]

While I will always maintain that the Brute Shot was the king of Covenant grenade launchers, the Plasma Caster is a fun alternative, and is vastly superior to the Concussion Rifle.

[@Lord_Muggs]

He's done it again, folks! Quality work as usual, sir! I too look forward to a video on Hunter's claws so you feel the urge to do so.

[@Enlightened_SpursFan]

Watching this video years later, never even got to play Halo 5, but I think the plasma caster is a really cool weapon and I also appreciate you putting the Name of the intro song in the description, its really good!

[@kingstongary9103]

Amy day I get to hear this intro theme is a good day

[@shadowzone2588]

I kinda wanna see the plasma launcher make a return in halo 6.

[@ispitefulisadopted3070]

bad pun incoming Thanks for *casting* us that information

[@rorysinden6038]

iSpiteful Is Adopted oh wow

[@unopenedbox4409]

iSpiteful Is Adopted thanks for the warning

[@ispitefulisadopted3070]

freddy 38293 i got chu bro

[@Gingrman-mx4sp]

iSpiteful Is Adopted GET OUT

[@ispitefulisadopted3070]

Shooter Games with Ging3rman117 chill ur dill daniel

[@Luiscastillo-ky1hp]

i love using this weapon for bosses, it eats them up

[@ramirososa3623]

Muy buen video! ! 😀

[@Aozolai]

¡Gracias!

[@elihernandez800]

Jesus, I'm at SR 146 and I just found out you can charge the shots. I always sucked with Casters, but this changes the game

[@TheAlessandroKid]

One of my favorite weapons to use!

[@hantenmaster1168]

Your videos, always help me in warzone tank you aozolai :)!

[@bimmerhuncho908]

It's a plasma grenade launcher like the plasma launcher in Reach just without the lock on tracking part (this just has tracking without lock on), and the White Scar acts as a sticky detonator from Halo 4 but with needles from a needler/needle rifle, nice! I still miss the sticky det though... good times!

[@TheTrollMastah]

This and the Blood of Sunion carbine are my favorite weapons

[@Gingrman-mx4sp]

Wow I didn't realize that the White Scar was that powerful!

[@GiskardRevenlov]

I actually preferred the sights used in the trailers, I liked the more square design

[@randomvideoguy9336]

Been waiting so long for this one

[@garragameplays1883]

I just love plasma caaters

[@wilburforce8046]

dang I feel like this gun is so underestimated I mean I thought it was a joke until now, crazy to see some people who can be good at bouncing this thing to kill

[@mightypingusta3390]

One thing to mention about the white scar, frag grenades trigger the cluster mine, idk if the explosion or the grenade itself but it is a handy tip for those trapped by the bombs

[@bigtimebikefan8260]

Hey man this us bike fan, and I keep forgetting to tell you this, and that is that your intro is BAE!! Anyway nice video, hope to play with you in the future

[@gibson362]

Sick vid, as always!! Yo, you should do a video on which weapon can deal the most damage with its starting ammo capacity

[@kryvex4996]

I use these to clear rooms similar to a flamethrower. Great for capturing armories.

[@redhusky7484]

You should do a warzone boss analysis where you show the best vehicle and weapon for dps and ect

[@left4newbz]

I love trap weapons (sticky detonator, White Scar). It's so satisfying seeing people run right into it, which makes this my favorite REQ variant. Thanks for the analysis! I'm sure it sucked ass to do, seeing as there was no brief gameplay at the end lol

[@jacobstarr9010]

I like the white scar because you can camp the garage on attack on sanctum, with the land mines the white scar detonates through the door

[@noble6882]

Good stuff

[@DcsealCMB]

Always been a wonder why both fire modes cost one ammo ball, when one is way better 90% of the time..

[@s3m4jno5w4d]

Excellent as always, who's the new guy?

[@Aozolai]

Just someone from a group of Halo players that help me with my videos

[@thelastrebel13]

Love the vids keep them coming

[@joederp5940]

Nice! Keep up the great work! :)

[@AndroNucleus]

I was hoping you'd include the mechanics of charged shots against infantry. I don't think they track spartans, but sometimes after you're stuck, you can evade the explosions enough to not die.

[@divineheii5316]

White scar would be way better if the needle shards were the talon of the lost variant

[@Aozolai]

That would be insane

[@MrResources]

Aoz!!!

[@Assassin.Brotherhood]

Aozolai did you know that in Halo Reach it takes 6 shots with a needler to supercombine them and 3 with a needle rifle and in Halo 5 (like you said in this vid) it takes like 7 shots to supercombine

[@CamaroZ-tc1ff]

the other nade gun

[@jupiterbjy]

Is there anyone who counted the number of death for Phonix? I bet it's more than 500

[@mattrodriguez6130]

So basically the white scar fires a bolt that, when fired near an enemy, can turn into a needle shotgun blast, of sorts?... seems pretty legit

[@megamanzfan]

Aozolai What is the max tracking velocity the caster can achieve while tracking a vehicle & how far can it go before disappearing or whatever it does explode? I'm asking for it's max range before it times out or stops tracking. You can call it track velocity.

[@P3DROCARNITAS]

On Beaver Creak when I do Super Fiesta I always set a WS charge at the teleporter

[@MISTAWULFY]

I still prefer the Brute Shot personally

[@ajrinebold4636]

You should do a grenade analysis.

[@juleylopez2185]

its a Concussion rifle not a Plasma caster and it would really be launcher but thats in Halo Reach

[@justiceforjoggers2897]

So then it's a Plasma Caster, and not a concussion launcher, because this isn't Reach

[@clawedassassin6095]

interesting

[@xaviersminecraftandmore1067]

First song is in NVZ *noobs vs zombies

[@nokyard9469]

I see the uploader has never fired the weapon into a Mancanon.

[@YaNoAwantoMas]

Plasma Casters full charges are great against most Warzone Firefight Bosses... Just saying :)

[@Foozuh]

So scourge of fire is over powered

[@Foozuh]

No white scar isn't that overpowers but scourge of fire will always be op

[@LoneWolf20213]

the SoF is my choice for these grenade launcher

[@fearberserker117]

where is my brief gameplay??? i need it to move theory to practice... how i`m suposed to know how to play with it???

[@thanosmaster-abel559]

I wanna say first but I don't if in first because once ur on the video u won't see the new comments that load

[@tnutts42]

We're you planning on updating any of your old analysis videos after the weapon tuning update comes out for Halo 5?

[@Aozolai]

Only for weapons that will be modified

[@saulcastro8461]

exelent analysis, use halo 5 OST too

[@D_M4N8]

What's quick charge and what's hold charge? I'm so confused!

[@Aozolai]

"Quick Charge" time is the fastest time you can charge a cluster shot, "Hold Charge" time is the maximum amount of time you can hold a cluster charge before the weapon fires on its own

[@D_M4N8]

Aozolai thank you! It makes so much more sense now.

[@varindralakhan3654]

Hey Aozolai, do you measure the distances of how fast an object goes using the help of a Sniper Rifle? It would really interesting to know.

[@Aozolai]

I use Sniper Rifles to measure distances and some software to measure times. Distance divided by time gives me velocity data.

[@varindralakhan3654]

Thanks for the info, i'm new to Physics, lol

[@chaki670]

Can the grenadier armour mod affect it???? Im hearing rumors of it

[@thehalfdutchman-dutch1211]

Will you do these for halo infinite when it comes out?

[@Carnage4009]

Have you ever thought of different content, or twitch livestreams? It could be fun

[@rlpn6710]

“White Scar” Purge these xenos for defiling that name

[@ThBMc]

Thx for tips'n triks,very usefull like comment if u agree 😊

[@aldenkajy3087]

Weird suggestion but you should compare the halo 2 br from halo 5 to the one in halo 2

[@rorysinden6038]

HI!

[@Aozolai]

Hey buddy!

[@lessly48]

You tested on 2 different people😐

[@sneezy9863]

New assistant?

[@Aozolai]

Phoenix usually helps me get the footage but I have a bunch of other people that help me behind the scenes

[@sneezy9863]

Oh ok then

[@thegamingzilla6269]

The plasma caster is one of 343s better weaoon designs

[@saigon9964]

[@sebathadah1559]

Bouncing grenades are ULTRA gay.
