Subject: wtf scarab gun

I would really like to get the King of the Scarab achievement for halo 2, but its really hard to get the stupid banshee to follow so you can fly to the scarab gun. i did it a few times and got it all the way down once, even past that vent it could slip out of, and then it got stuck on a nub. i ran out of grenades, and melee didnt work so i had to run backwards, and it wound up in the shaft anyway, thus failing me. does anyone have any tips?

Use a Ghost

The Ghost works best for me, and it's faster. You can knock off the wings of the Banshee if you want, but you don't have to and there's no timing involved with the lz, just get in.

ROFL, that's why I made the YT vid. The Banshee seems to be more attracted to the Ghost.

I've done this a couple of times, and he is right, the ghost does attract it more. the gun is awesome, it never empties, it just keeps shooting a continous beam as long as you hold the trigger. i've gotten past the level like that and i got the soccer ball down way easier.

Get the Sputnik skull first then you can melee it easier to get it out of corners, keep an eye on it otherwise it flys into further into the tunnel and disappears and that really sucks.

Actually, I've never heard of anyone pulling that off. Having said that, I know nothing of superbouncing so it could very well be true.

Co-op is good to do this in. You can get one person to go in the tunnel and clear it out, and have the other distract the banshee outside.

You are right and it might be good practice but you have no save. If you go to the trouble of getting the Banshee through to the other side, quit and save the profile so you can do it over if you want.
