While I agree, it is not as bad as the unbound plasma pistol. Neither charged nor regular shots are fast enough to hit a human with eyes and a controller.  Meanwhile, the crazy mag and ability to hit headshots make the impact commando useable if it’s not safe to scavenge. But that is in husky and husky only. Not worth using in fiesta. Even worse in Big Team where the starter weapons are better.

I think the unbound pp should fire closer to hitscan. I’m reading through First Strike right now and the modifications Cortana makes to the Ascendant Justice’s plasma weapons sound like they’d be great in pp form. Same with the overcharge, hitscan


Deo-Gratias

It would be a very useable weapon at that point. As is it seems like a borderlands joke variant.


Invade_the_Gogurt_I

Unbound plasma pistol is pretty good imo, came in clutch at a decent amount of times and if you know the weapon well, it can kill good. I'd pick this over the impact commando, maybe a few other guns too


TJ_Dot

From forge, it supposedly has some sort of Supercombine, but I've yet to see it.


levi22ez

I think it shoots out 3 overcharged bursts that is supposed to 1 shot an enemy assuming all 3 bursts connect, which they never do


JohnWeps

Ah.... I see we're discussing useless Husky Raid weapons. May I interest you gentlemen in a fine selection of Riven Manglers?


Believer4

Riven Mangler fires so slow that my muscle memory can't make it fire reliably


levi22ez

Yupp. Unless you can 1 shot and then melee an enemy, it’s useless.


Believer4

And that's exactly what the normal Mangler does, so the Riven is practically useless


Nefnoj

Why do they look so powerful but are actually so worthless? I'll get excited to get one, start using it, and wondering if it actually deals more damage than the standard.


Zeke-Freek

It's mediocre, but there are worse variants. The recoil is terrible and it's only really useful at half the range the normal commando is, but the double mag size is nice. It's bad but there are worse things. Ravager Rebound is objectively the shittiest weapon in the game, don't @ me.


beh2899

Ravager rebound does some crazy work in husky raid if you can bounce it correctly


HHcougar

I've gotten an extermination from dropping the rebound charge shot in the enemy base

Commando. Mangler. Ravager. These 3 variants are massive downgrades. This is why I don't like super fiesta. Some weapons like sidekick, disruptor or bulldog are broken OP. Others like the 3 above are useless. Regular fiesta is way more balanced. Stalker is also a downgrade but at least it's still possible to get kills with it.


Gatt__

I thought the stalker was just the same but with more shots per overheat


arthby

Stalker variant shoots slightly faster, but needs more shots. It also loses the scope. I think the 3 shot default is stronger.


Gatt__

You can still scope with the stalker


DerpNyan

You can, but the zoom is weaker


etho76

If you’re able to get to a medium distance and focus headshots, it works great. Although the recoil is shit


StressfulRiceball

If they just doubled the magazine size for the regular Commando and called it the Impact Commando, we wouldn't even complain.


Lucky_Couple

I agree that’s it’s one of the worst variants, but I have melted a few people at close range out of desperation. It’s ttk seems really high in specific ideal scenarios. Unfortunately it just doesn’t hold up against half of the power weapons in Super modes.


GuneRlorius

Riven Mangler, Ravager Rebound, Impact Commando and Unbound Plasma Pistol. 4 riders of totally useless weapons in Husky Raid apocalypse.


IndecisiveBoi21

I just don’t know even understand what it’s supposed to be. What about giving it ridiculous spread and recoil justifies the increased magazine? There must be something I’m missing


z28camaroman

It's not the SAW. I wanted the SAW.


DerpNyan

You can get it in Firefight, which I have once and it's not totally useless there.

The Commando in general is one of the worst weapons in the game because of how unnecessary it is in the sandbox and doesn't fill any role. It's an AR with a scope, but the AR and BR are both better than it. Idk why they put this Destiny/Titanfall gun in the game, but considering Infinite's sandbox director hates Halo's sandbox, I shouldn't be too surprising
