Expert Tips, Tricks, Glitches, and Strats! Bungie Playlist Update December 2007. What's new? On Guardian, (HC style) the Gravity Hammer has been replaced with a Sword. There have been significant updates to many of the maps containing Maulers. (Thank God) (contributed by: Halo 3 Expert Austin, added January 8, 2008) Spartan Laser Tip - Wider Spartan Laser Beam. When the Spartan Laser is about to fire, spin left or right and the beam will get much bigger giving it a lot more range. (contributed by: willy825, added January 7, 2007) Plasma Pistol Tip - One fully charged shot at an approaching ghost will temporarily stall it.... long enough to get a kill and hop on!!! (contributed by MLoete, added December 20, 2007) Spartan Laser Tip - Since the laser tracking beam can alert your opponent to the impending blast, one tip is to lead the beam just far enough away from them while it is charging, then just before it fires, point it at them. Kablooey! (contributed by meestermole, added December 17, 2007) Grenade Tips - Grenades are your friends, you cant get reported for doing grenade jumps, so go look some up. If someone is retreating try to throw a grenade where they WILL BE in a few seconds, not where they are. The art of grenade throwing takes a while to learn but it can be a very powerful tool. (contributed by: Dude, added December 12, 2007) Wield the Sword - Energy Sword tips and info article from Halo'sFinest.com. As usual straight to the point tips article. Enjoy.

(added November 25, 2007) Battle Rifle Tip - How do you use the battle rifle successfully? Body, Body, Body, Head… Put the first few shots into the body and then move to the head once the shields are down. Always be strafing, and use your strafing to make minute adjustments to your aim. (added November 14, 2007) Expert Mauler Tips from Huub! The first thing that I want to make clear is that THE MAULER RULES, here is the explanation and some tips: (end of article) Shotgun Tip: Fire the shotgun slightly beyond the one-shot range and instantly follow it with a melee. I've gotten more killing sprees with that trick on a close-quarters level than anything else. (contributed by: MaxPowerhouse7, added November 7, 2007) Brute Spiker Tip Power: Medium The 'Type-25 Spiker Carbine' Aka the Brute Spiker, is a handheld, rapid-firing,
spike-launching gun that can be dual wielded for maximum damage. It's fast
firing rate ensures enemies are 'Pinned down' (sorry for pun) under fire and
it is quite versatile as well. It has a 40 spike clip, and is similar to the
SMG, however due to it's weight, it has no recoil. It has a very quick reload,
and can be used as a close- medium ranged weapon without losing too much of The spiker can burn through flesh and armor with ease, but when facing a shielded enemy, it is better to go in with a melee strike first. As with most brute weapons, it holds a powerful blade underneath, allowing for deadly melee attacks. This, in combination with it's fast ROF, makes it an ideal close range weapon. Counter With: Shotgun, Battle Rifle, Carbine (an exerpt from Weapons & Vehicles FAQ by Livio A) Gravity Hammer 101 - A brief article that offers up some nifty info and strats relating to the Gravity Hammer.

(contributed by: Austin, added November 2, 2007) Gravity Hammer Tip: If somebody shoots a rocket at you with careful timing you can deflect it with a grav hammer. (contributed by: Spiderboy1010, added October 28, 2007) I love the Mauler - Here is a very short article written about the Mauler. This guy loves it! Is he wrong or do you like it also? (added October 25, 2007) Grenades Tip: (responding to how to avoid grenades) It's not so much of an issue that you're not reacting to the nade in time, but I think a big part of it is that you haven't quite learned to EXPECT the grenade before it comes. I can by your descriptions that you'd be the type of person who gets killed a lot when you're on the retreat from a fight you were losing and you duck around a hallway, only to have your opponent always seem to peek and throw a "perfect" nade (one that kills you) around the corner. If that describes you well, then your problem is most likely that you're too predictable in your actions when you're low on health. You've gotta learn to expect the grenade and learn where people are gonna throw it. In retreat situations, people throw nades generally in two ways: a) to keep you from getting in to their area when their health is low (right by the corner of the door to block) or b) to finish the kill if they think you'll retreat first (far down the hall). If you're right next to the door, they'll probably go w/ nade-a and try to bounce it to your position, so jump backwards away from the nade and face them (to keep them from getting an easy kill by shooting you in the back). Do not try to beat the nade and go for the kill - this fight is one you'll probably have to abandon. If you're farther away, you'll get nade-b and they'll peek around the corner to lob one to you, so jump forwards closer to the door or jump sideways out of the way. If you find yourself dying a lot behind cover from long range nades, then you need to move faster from your immediate cover into a safer area. Cover only blocks bullets, not nades, which can do damage from around the corner. Hide yourself behind cover from their bullets and when you hear their bullets stop for a split second, then move because that's when they're gonna throw the nade. Avoid it if you can, but it's better to expose yourself to bullets for a split second than to stay in place and hope the grenade misses. And as a rule, if the first grenade hits you and you don't die, there WILL be a second and the second will hit without a doubt. Ultimately, the idea behind not getting killed by grenades is anticipation. Eventually you will become better at predicting what people will do in fights against you and you should find yourself dying less and less as your Halo-intuition becomes more developed. Just keep thinking about what you did wrong when you died and internalize it until you develop a successful way of playing. (contributed by: justpeeking, added October 21, 2007) Grenades Tip: The easiest way to avoid a gernade (or atleast reduce the damage you take) is to jump and plan on being at the height of your jump when the gernade explodes. H3's nades have a rediculously small blast radius so you should be able to jump away from most gernades. You can even start a game yurself and practice throwing gernades (all types) and try a few things- 1) learn how long it takes them to explode once you throw them (this will give you a better idea of how long you have to manuver out of the way once you see or hear one coming). 2) throw nades near you and learn how big their blast radius is, get a feel for how much damage you take (if any) when you are a certain distance from a nade. This will allow you to know how you need to react to a gernade (if you're far enough away you won't have to do anything, or if a plasma lands at yur feet u better run and jump). (contributed by: BPowda, added October 21, 2007) Halo 3 Balancing Changes. What is different now? Assault Rifle: Weak at long range, weak at medium range, decent at medium-close and close range. Generally, you'll want to fire off about a half clip and then follow with a melee strike for the quickest kill.
Beam Rifle: Essentially a Sniper Rifle without clips so you never need to reload. However, you must limit your rate of fire to avoid getting knocked out of zoom by overheating. The human Sniper Rifle is better, but this definitely isn't bad.
Energy Sword: Range is reduced since Halo 2 and the Energy Sword now has limited uses. However, it's still very effective at close range. Switching from one weapon to the Energy Sword is slow now, making it more difficult to switch on the fly. Melee button causes quicker attack that does not lunge, however you can use it to psyche an opponent into thinking you've wanted your lunge. Battle Rifle Tip: yeah just play more with it, and one thing i noticed is it helps to aim a smidge to the left of the people when they're strafing to the right and your going left. and vice versa. (contributed by: iianubisll) Battle Rifle Tip: try this it worked for me in h2 ...... start a party (mlg rules TS) wit u and a friend ... u go red and he will go red as well ... practice shooting each other it will be harder from NO autoaim... so wen u get in a game with auto aim ur aim for body and HS will be better... people say that this will mess u up cuz u get used to no auto aim .. but it jus like going up in senz and going back down helps u steady ur br ... give it a try man it worked for me ..... (contributed by: iI M3GaTRON Ii) Grenades Tip: use the walls thats the biggest thing. learn the bounces and walls to hit to get grenades in a certain corner and like martyrzor said timing granades while being chased is also very usefull. a perfect grenade leaves a one headshot kill. (contributed by: GSo-STuB-BoRN) Grenades Tip: A good tip is to jump and throw the nade so that it bounces INTO YOUR OPPONENT...and then it blows up. UNLIKE STICKIES you want your nade to bounce and then blow up into them. For stickies you want to try and stick their feet, the closer the throw the better. If jumping and then throwing the nade is not an option during the battle, then try to not bounce it and aim for the feet then practice practice practice.... (contributed by: Krazy_Nades) Gravity Hammer Tip: It will do a short lunge like the sword but you will mostly want to use it for area-effect damage. If a vehicle is trying to run you over, just hit the vehicle and send it flying! If someone throws a grenade at you the shockwave from the hammer will send the grenade flying back! Spike Grenade Tip: I’m a bit disappointed at how the majority of players use the spike grenades. They throw it on the ground and watch the spikes shoot up. People need to realize that it’s effective in narrow places or on walls. They make great sticks as well but don’t throw the spike grenades on the ground cause it’s not going to do anything unless someone runs over it. (added October 13, 2007) (contributed by: lonman06) Halo 3: My Top 10 Weapons for MultiPlayer - And no, I didn't write this! Here is a current article about Halo 3 weapons. Personally I think there are enough good tidbits and tips here for you to read it! It's only one page so don't be lazy! (added October 9, 2007) Brute Hammer Tip: If you want more height to your jump. Have a Brute Hammer and look down at the ground. Jump and Hit right trigger for a higher jump (contributed by: MC Blue) Halo 3 Sniper Tips - by socorban (added October 6, 2007) - It doesn't have to be a head shot all the time for a one shot kill. Shoulder line usually does it too. This gives you a slightly broader range of area to hit for a kill. - Always walk with you rifle pointing at about head or upper shoulder level. If some one pops around the corner and your finger are fast enough... down they go. - If your targeting an unsuspecting victim from afar target near them and walk into the shot. Its much easier to line up the head shot this way than flinching around looking. - If they jump, which is a horrible thing to do when trying to avoid a sniper. Just lead there landing and fire when they come to you. - Always lead a shot by a hair. this give you more margin for error. - If you miss realign, dont waste the amo on a trigger happy mishot. - Never give up your nest if its not a sure shot. Especially if its teams and you dont know were the other players are. You may not be the only one with a rifle. - Shoot and move. I sniper who stays in one spot is a dead sniper.
