What's the easiest way to get to the Scarab Gun on Halo 2 Vista? I've gotten it on Xbox before, but I don't want to go through that LONG process of getting a banshee to follow you.

Halo Reach PC über alles!

Nope, it is just the same in H2V, sorry for the inconvenience. But there is an achievement once you get it so we hope it makes this long struggle worth it in the end. =D


¬¬ I have heard alternate methods of getting the gun, but I don't think those are much better.

Blu Trainer.

Or playing Online with someone hosting the level (with blu trainer). :D

I've done it twice on Normal and found the easiest one was on Normal.

Easiest one? You mean the easiest way to do it was the normal way with the Banshee?

Add me to your friends list if you haven't already. It's a lot more fun to play with people from The Maw and people I know than random noobs.

Haha, I remember doing this with a friend on Xbox. Highjacking the banshee at the right time was always the hardest part for us.

Oh wow, I fscked that sentence up big time.

Lemme try again.

Do it on normal. I've done it once on Normal, and once on easy, I found Normal to be easier than Easy. I guess the Banshees are just more offensive on Normal or something.

50 in H2/H3? Great, but you still fail at this.

It's a little harder on the PC though. If you are on a fast PC, everything loads instantly.

....Things just keep getting worse and worse.... Does anyone have some sort of mod that switches certain guns with the Scarab Gun or something!?!? xD I don't want to use a trainer for fear of being banned though.

On H2V? Dude, no one gives a -blam!- about that game, you're fine. Microsoft completely neglects it.

Yeah, Microsoft doesn't ban for people using trainers, just as how they don't ban me for using mods. :D

I could host a game on Metropolis, just for people to retrieve the scarab gun. :D

The bungie.net community is the halo PC community that is renowned for being unbelieveably sucky.

Honestly, I just don't think they care.

There is a way. At the part where you board the scarab, grab rockets, and punch a small case out onto the walkway and onto the last bridge before the scarab turns. Then stand on top of it and fire a rocket not too close, but close at the ground. It should send you flying, and you can land on the bridge with the scarab gun. Unfortunately, you can't get back down unless in co-op. And even if you do, there's not much level left to use it.

Btw, I never really did the skull thing, so..... How do you get the skulls to keep working when switching levels? Does it just stay on? Cause I don't remember ever seeing a skull menu like on h3 or Halo: Reach

Sputnik is on Quarantine Zone, start it up on legendary and right away, go through the tunnel that goes away from where you're supposed to go. Then look for a giant green hole, it's on one of the ledges that goes around the hole.

After I get it can I change the difficulty back to Normal/Easy to play through Outskirts?
