I have created this thread in the hope that Halo noobs may learn from the masters and become masters themselves. Post any tips or strategies you use that help you to achieve victory here.

Halo requires no skill. The game is so terrible at determining who meleed first or who shot first that it is a joke.

This thread is here to help people new to Halo, not to criticise the game. If you think that it sucks, that's fine, but please don't say so in this thread.

Who is new to Halo? Everyone with Xbox has it.

Yeah, but having it is not the same thing as being good at it. Now let's stop arguing so that people can post their strategies.

handy tip#1-If you aim at someone, then pull out the energy sword and rush them, you will win
handy tip#2-if you get in a vehicle, and then get out, and switch to your energy sword and rush someone, you will win
handy tip#3-If your opponent has a energy sword, and you have a rocket launcher, aim at the ground and wait until he rushes you, you will both die, but at least he will no longer have the energy sword, and you can get it, then you will win.

I've heard that moving the Spartan Laser as soon as it discharges creates a fan of destruction. Same goes for the sniper. Board any vehicle which comes too close, even banshees. Bounce frag grenades off the ground so they detonate earlier.

The sniper rifle too? I've heard that for the spartan laser but never for the sniper rifle. It's a one-shot rifle, so how can it create a fan? Are you sure you don't mean the battle rifle?

No, aim a little to the side for the sniper so the shot goes diagonally, having a greater chance of hitting a moving enemy. Yeah, it works for the BR too.

Wow. I never knew that. Cool.
Also, if on narrows you're being chased through the air cannons and you have a plasma grenade, throw it at the air jet you're going to, and it may fly back and stick the guy chasing you. I've done it before.

Charged plasma pistol shots are EMP charges. Guess what applications that can have.

I've heard that they stop alien vehicles from functioning for about 10 secs, but I tried it and it didn't work.

All vehicles. It has to be charged and it has to hit the vehicle squarely. It also lowers shields instantly.

Wow. Not as bad as I thought. Dual-wield that and a spiker/SMG and you win.

Spiker's among the worst weapons to use. If you want to sticky people, the spiker grenade is best. Try unleashing all the missiles in a missile pod against a banshee so they have a harder time evading. Use the boost on vehicles to run over unsuspecting enemies.

The spiker has a beastly beatdown though. Do you mean the blue grenade or the stick-like grenades?
I'll think of more later.
- Rocket pod rockets will seek out turrets still attached to the base with enemies manning them. I don't know about unattached ones.
- The brute shot beatdown is more powerful than the sword swipe, but the sword gets a last-second dash, so that makes up the difference.
- You can bat away rockets and (I'm not sure) certain grenades with the gravity hammer.
- If 2 swords swipe at each other at the exact same time, they delfect each other.
- Frag grenades explode 0.5 to 1 second after hitting a solid object (grav lifts and air cannons don't count).
I'll think of more later.

You can shoot rockets in flight. The stick-like grenades are good for sticks. After being deflected, press b to catch your enemy before he swipes again. Memorize the locations of every weapon in a map.

I've never gotten a single stick with the stick grenades, only the plasmas. The plasmas are better since they can go up air lifts and stuff. It's harder to make the stick grenades go into them. The stick grenades are only useful if you actually stick someone, their explosion is like an ant biting a dinosaur. It almost never kills them.

Yeah it's only good for sticking. BUt it is great at that job.
