halo 2 still the best game in the series. long live halo 2.

Dam, I miss the old days playing halo 2 with my old brothers in arms. Thank you my old friends for giving me this account, I shall continue our legacy.

When playing Legendary on Halo 2, everyone knows how tough the elite ultras are. Their immune to being stuck with plasma grenades, they have the strongest shields in the game, and when you get too close they instantly draw out their energy sword and kill you.

What tactics do you use when dealing with them. My tactics usually consists off using the plasma pistol first and then spraying them with all my bullets till they finally die or try to ninja my way behind them to assassinate them.

Easy way: Noob combo
Hard way: Long distance firefight, when their shields get low and they try to take cover, throw a frag or plasma to make them get back out of cover and finish them off. Get through way too much ammo though -.-

Yup, full-charge PP and then strafe with BR or 2 head snipes (I think 2 shots, can't remember).

"No Mission Too Difficult, No Sacrifice Too Great—Duty First!" - The fighting first's motto.

Yes. I am a Battle Rifle machine. The DMR is a poor replacement.

The good ol' noob combo. That's how you do Legendary alright.

I don't really care about them. I do to them what I do to everyone else, they just take more shots. And the sword is slow and rather harmless.
