My cousin(silentstalker101) and i were debating on that one part in the Maw were the two Hunters are battling the flood. We were debating tactics.

My cousin's tactic= Battle the Hunters while they are battling the Flood so that they are distracted.

My tactic= Battle the Hunter after they have destroyed the Flood because 1.) you don't have to worry about getting damaged by the Flood. 2.) The Hunters will be weaker.

So which tactic is better?

both work, but I do what you do, that way when you've side stepped the Hunter you dont get a big Flood tentacle arm upside your head!

I do what you do, the enemy of my enemy (of my enemy, in this case) is my friend.

It doesn't matter to me. Hunter's being weaker mean nothing when you always shoot them in the back with the pistol. Then I always have a shotgun for the flood. Both ways are easy so it doesn't matter.

True but in this case i am talking about not fighting two enemies at once.

Well I have the flood's and the hunter's weakness so I have nothing to fear.

My tactic(waiting) is very useful and was used on cheatcc.com for beating the game on legendary.

It doesn't really matter, but as the Hunters are the easiest enemies in the game, I would let them kill whatever flood was there, and then pop them both in the back. This way you save ammo.

Here's my tactic:
Let the flood kill them.

BTW, yours is better than your cousin's.

A well placed grenade, kills them all :D

Your tactic is proberly better as it sorter leaves you with a smaller job. But charging in all guns blazings sounds fun too.
