After 2 hours of gameplay, banshee hunting, alien killing, i got THE SCARAB GUN in halo 2.

there are three SCARAB GUNS in halo 2, two SCARAB GUNS are found by grabbing it from the scarab's turret. The SCARAB gun i got is the one with a box, a rocket launcher, and that explosive thingy. It toom 30 minites of shooting the box and flying up so high that you could grab a russian missile, i got it.

I took my br, looked at it, and up at the SCARAB GUN. It looked like a plasma rifle, but it was SCARAB GUN. I had no hesitation of trading my BR for the SCARAB GUN. I found out it is very dangerous, i shot the air and tried it out on the scarab miles below, and it totally wiped out life on it.

When i started shooting the ground around me, it tore apart. I got to close and killed myself in a millisecond of scarab plasma.

i jumped up two more times, and got the SCARAB GUN both times (Fails in between) i got a checkpoint up there w/ the gun, and i saved and quit.

IM SO HAPPY!

Too bad you can't get down the way you did it. You can use a Banshee or go up with the Pelican, get the gun and ride it back down.

We are well schooled here as far as the Scarab gun is concerned. You can get the one in Outskirts or there are two guns in Metropolis. In case you don't know, there is no Scarab gun on The Great Journey.

Good job on getting up there though.

There's no Scarab gun on Great Journey. There's one on Outskirts and two on Metropolis. There was a modded vid about the Great Journey gun but that doesn't count. There is no gun there without mods.

Soon to be breaking news:


US Coast Guard prepares for massive rescue mission after Iranian fleet sinks off shore. Reports say a small thunderstorm caused most of the ships to simply...fall apart.

Grats. I remember the first time I got one. I was just running around shooting it, and then Sergeant Stacker drove in front of me and...

I only got one in metropolis but it took for ever, because i was distracted by the soccer ball lol and the box trick only worked once and u need black eye for over shield to get it and its hard the banshee was not as chalgenging but it was hard still.

I was wondering though. wat is the real way to get there, the one bungie expects us to use beside banshee glitching or crat exposive launch crap, wat is the real way?

also can u keep it through the whole campagian?

and more importantly y isant it availiable in other halos? be so fun for forge ing on halo 3 custom games only or campagian and it woud be great in odst

Congrats, dude. I know how happy I was when I first got it. And the soccer ball. Plus, in the PC, it makes for a worthy acheivment.

We weren't meant to get it on the bridge. The one down on the street at the Scarab is just a nade jump so if they wanted us to get one, it would be that one. The one on Outskirts was not meant to be had, especially the one in the tunnel.

You can't keep it past the level you get it on.

The last PM you sent had a link to the thread by which you were banned. Several posts in that thread had a quoted link to -blam!-. I didn't know if the -blam!- link came from you or not so I took no chances and blocked you. Next time, please warn me if -blam!- links are in a thread that you direct me to. Sorry if I got that whole thing wrong but I take no chances.

Also, the 2nd gun in Metropolis is right under the Scarab when it first fires and it only appears once and then is gone and you can only get it in coop.

Since this is a Scarab gun thread I'll say the Outskirts Scarab gun used to be only attainable from the water map. That is no longer the case, the gun can be picked up inside the tunnel at the Scarab spawn but it is more difficult than anything in the game.

oh wait now i remember i didn`t post that link as after making the thread i turned my computer off and went to bed and the next day i was banned, it was a bad link posted by some immature idiot

Rofl, I loved the Scarab gun, always used to be so much fun to see a Grunt destroyed by it or a high ranking Elite :)
