I never know what to do when I'm by one of the sniper spawns on The Pit and there is a person above me? Like if you try and rush up the air lift you get killed. If you try and get away you probly get sniped. What is the best thing to do?

I always try to use a buddy whos on greenbox or stage to at least distract the person, so I can lift. Unless they have Sword or Shotgun then I just go away....

This is a Reach account that I created the day they announced his name in a bnet weekly update. Any stats regarding ODST or Halo 3 are irrelevant. Also, Halo CE master race. Halo 1 > other halo games > other games.

Account Status: Silver :(

Teabag lift or jump on the little wall next to the lift and ghost jump. Then two/three shot beatdown. If he throws a regen never stop meleeing and try to jump over him.

I'm not making excuses. I never claimed to be good. I have never played any colonel better than me though.

Crouch S1 until they go away or the game ends.

oh and if they find you and you're about to die quit out really quick so they don't get the kill. You can practice this in Campaign if you want to get good at it.

Come visit me @ HaloCharts.com if you would like to see my stats or @ RippinHeads.com if you would like some great FFA Tips! :)

For security reasons I have decided to hide the gamertag that is linked to this account. Sorry :P

I find that the majority of players who are on top of the tower can be drawn out or made to jump up if they think you are going to lift. If that works just AR or SMG them. If that doesn't work I will normally back out to the fence and try to irritate them or get a few lucky naded on them. In Lone Wolves if you distract them long enough they will likely get shot/naded in the back by a spawning player. You may be able to slip away into the sword room too if all else fails. ;)

if your by the tower with the generator thing in the corner and you have a BR, you can stand on it and shoot the person up top or short lift like other people said

I remember awhile back seeing a youtube vid of a crazy jump from S1 to S2 without using the lift.

Ignore him if he's anywhere near competent unless you have a buddy and you are able to communicate some kind of take-back strategy. It's a low percentage situation to lift up to someone who knows you're coming.

Sure you can probably get him off 70% of the time with the tactics others have mentioned but there are higher percentage plays you can make. I prefer the one's that are 100% effective.
Just flip the map on them. Be patient.

If you're not patient, consider picking up the needler, because you know they're going throw that regen that respawns every 30 seconds. They will be pissed off too if they go out like that. So that's a bonus to that strat. Make sure to bait him a bit with a BR or AR first if he's being wiley. Then pop back out of cover with the needler surprise.
