I was playing Maw on legendary and a hunter was charging so I decided to empty my needler ammo into him. IT WORKED EXTREMELY GOOD! The armor and shield only blocked a few but most got to him and he even blew him into the air!

you know what's better, and saves more ammo? one sniper/pistol shot to the upper center back for an instant kill.

Yeah that works but needlers are abundant in halo and snipers/pistols aren't.

And that doesn't work with a pistol on legendary it takes a few shots.

....they are if you conserve ammo more... name one level and part where there's a hunter, and i can tell you where you should've got a pistol or sniper.

Fox does have a point. The only lvl where you don't have a pistol you have the sniper rifle insted.

The needler works good too I guess... never really used it. (my friend always uses it and he always dies so I stay away from it against hunters...)

Shotgun works great, and the MA5B (very close range) can drop one too.

Yeah I like my way though. I usually don't use any ammo and let them charge at me. Then I strafe and melee them in the back.
