'16 days! Thats nearly two weeks!'

Posted by: Spartan287
I'll probably go with the theplasma pistol and either the human pistol. Unless there is a magnum pistol like they described in First Strike. Then its plasma pistol and that. And just out of curiosity, can u duel weild the energy swords?


the magnum pistol from first strike is the human pistol! and no u cant duel weild with 2 plasma swords (if ud read the 'duel weilding' guide ud know that)

There was another review I stumbled across that said the x,x,y (backpack reload) trick doesn't work anymore. As far as weapon combos go, the plasma pistol teamed with any human weapon will pwn. The charged shot will get rid of the shield and then the human weapon will finish the job with no problem.

"SMG and Human Pistol: Surprisingly effective at close quarters and at distance. Use the pistol for long-range headshots, while constantly depleting their shields and health with a spray of SMG fire. Remember also that one pistol shot will detonate a fusion core."


This was mentioned in the article and i'm a bit perplexed by it. Is it talking about the power pack in the armor. A possible one-shot kill in Halo 2 or what?!?

Strange evolution how people have come to believe
That we are it's greatest achievement
We're barely, we're just a collection of cells
Overrating themselves

I believe he meant that he would have a sword and a shotgun on his person.... not dual wielded. same for each cept for the dual human pistols thing.

He is talking about using the smg to deplete your opponents shield. Once his shield is down the pistol (no longer a 3 shot kill) becomes much more effective, i.e. 1 head shot on an opponent without a shield will drop him. One head shot with either the pistol or battle rifle on an opponent without a shield will kill him, just like Halo 1.

What does this imply if anything?

He was asking about the fusion core that was mentioned not a head shot, I think that there are crate like objects on the ground that detonate once they recieve enough damage, but I don't know
