I know it takes about 2 M6D clips of bodyshots to kill one, but what about headshots?

bah

It takes 22 shots to down a gole Elite's shields, 11 for a red Elite, and 8 for a blue Elite. If the last shot is in the head, they will die.

Therefore, it takes exactly 1 & 11/12ths clip to kill a Gold Elite, exactly 1 clip for a Red, and exactly 3/4ths of a clip for a blue.

No, the last shot takes down the shields. If the final shot is in the head, they will die. So 22 shots to kill a gold Elite, 11 red, 8 blue.

it will take one shot in the head with the sniper rifle for the blue one. 2 for red 2 sometimes 3 for the gold elites.

Five Tenets of Bungie.net Forum Life:
1. Trolls will always be well fed.
2. Blame-ability thy name is stosh.
3. Bungie has no control over retail prices.
4. Watch out for low-flying defense drones.
5. Seven is not optional, but rather, an inevitability.

Nevermind. Thought it was about the sniper rifle...
