i was just playing Halo Combat Evoloved on easy, it was the level Halo, and it was when the two banshees come out and attack you (when you cross the bridge) well i killed the first one easy with the pistol, i saw the second one coming and i knew it was going to escape, and i shot it's underside, but instead of exploding like it should have, the body of the elite piloting it died before it exploded, interesting eh? here's a picture http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v638/battousai13/non-blownu pbanshee.j pg

if your gonna view the pic take off the space between the "j" and the "pg" first

You mean just like how you can shoot through the shields on the covenate troop carrier?

OMFG, i'm sooooo lazy!!!
that being said,
what you did is not uncommon, but is very hard to do. this is mostly because of the fact that A) you can only accomplish it if you hit the elite in the banshee, and B) the only exposed part of the elite is it's feet. if the head was exposed... well.....
if you want to do it, try the PP+pistol combo. one charged shot anywhere on the banshee from the PP, and the elite's shields should be gone. unfortunatly, this automaticaly causes the banshee to blow up on some levels (like easy, for example). then, hit the elite's lfeet a few times, and you have yourself a slightly used banshee!. it also works with a PP+sniper combo.

mm, thanks lam, well i might have hit the feet, he was pretty far away and i was checking how good my shot was (i was using human pistol on 2x zoom), sadly i couldn't use the banshee, it didn't give me the option to get in it, you gotta admit it would've been awesome to fly through the level with the banshee without needing a hog
