Geomax is entirely right though. ME weaponry does more damage than Halo weaponry, because more force is applied to the round as it is fired. Halo weaponry still is pretty much regular-ass modern weaponry, with a few differences in minor areas. It clearly is more powerful, shredding through armor much easier than Halo weapons do with armored foes.
