In Response To: Better enemies (Quirel)

: Give me Grunts that have had to take up the Engineer's shield projectors.
: Give me Jackals that drive vehicles. Give me Jackal sharpshooters that
: spot for Shade turrets. Give me Brutes and Elites that have taken up
: Jackal Energy Gauntlets. Give me Elites who specialize in erecting and
: maintaining battlefield defenses. Give me new forms of Hunters that fill
: roles other than 'slow, defensive tank'.
Some of these wouldn't work but I see what you mean. The Covies need to branch out, find new roles.

: As for the Prometheans... I think their only hope is if 343i decides to
: declare a Mulligan.
It'd be great if they just removed them outright, but that's unlikely.

So... they need to nerf the Watcher and make the Knight distinctions more prominent.

I.e. I'm not terrified of a Knight Battlewagon, as it only looks fearsome. I know by now that it's just a regular Knight wielding an overpowered, inconsistent gun and possessing a rarely used special ability. They need to take away it's Scattershot and give it an unique set of abilities and animations that'll make it the equivalent of Predator. Ya know, actually make it melee based instead of just saying it is when it's not.

I.e. Knight Commanders are an atrocity, they abuse their ability and their overpowered gun's radius so they don't even need to aim to hit you.

I.e. Knights are prone to spamming grenades with Catch on, it's ridiculous!

Crawlers are fine as they are, the only ones done right IMO.
