*The M6H2, like the M6H in ''[[Halo 4]]'', is a six shot kill. While it had a rate of fire similar to the [[M6C magnum]] from ''[[Halo 2]]'' and ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'' in the ''[[Halo 5: Guardians Multiplayer Beta]]'' it was later changed to fire slower in exchange for more damage.
*The M6H2 is a five shot kill and has consistently high accuracy. Though its fire rate is slow compared to the M6H, it proves a generally more reliable weapon than most previous incarnations of the weapon.
*Unlike the M6H the M6H2 lacks a [[KFA-2 x2]] making the player rely on [[Smart scope]]. Without the 2x zoom players should not attempt to take down enemies wielding weapons like the [[Type-51 carbine]] or [[M395 DMR]] at long range.
*Unlike the M6H the M6H2 lacks a [[KFA-2 x2]] making the player rely on [[Smart scope]]. With only 1.5x zoom players should not attempt to take down enemies wielding weapons like the [[BR85 Battle Rifle]] or [[M395 DMR]] at long range.
*Although many players tend to use it as a primary weapon instead of the [[MA5D]], the M6H2 performs poorly in close quarters due to its slow fire rate and low aim assist. It is instead recommended for mid-range usage.

Halo 5: Guardians

Campaign

Multiplayer

  • The M6H2 is a five shot kill and has consistently high accuracy. Though its fire rate is slow compared to the M6H, it proves a generally more reliable weapon than most previous incarnations of the weapon.
  • Unlike the M6H the M6H2 lacks a KFA-2 x2 making the player rely on Smart scope. With only 1.5x zoom players should not attempt to take down enemies wielding weapons like the BR85 Battle Rifle or M395 DMR at long range.
