Plasma Pistol & SMG Combo
You Need to use the Plasma Pistol & SMG as a Dual Weapon combo. First charge your pistol and fire it at an enemy. This usually knocks out their shield. Then finish them off with your SMG. It's very effective and normally works. Also try it on- line.

Secret To Duel-wielding
The secret is to shoot with one gun when your overwhelmed by enemies, and when that gun runs out of ammo/gets overheated, shoot with the other while your reloading. This way you will never end up in a situation where the enemies are atttacking you and you're defenseless because your reloading both guns.

Easily Beat The Flood
Tired of the flood coming back to life? Use the energy sword against them and they'll explode. Since they are in a million pieces or so, they can't come back to life.

Funny Comp Error
In the multiplayer mode, play the level Zanzibar and go into the room with the giant wheel in the middle. Near the entrance should be a little computer. When you get close to it it will say hold X to open gate, hold X. The comp screen should turn blue. With a weapon with a scope or zoom feature read what appears on the screen.

Johnson's Cigar In Cairo Station
In the first level, as soon as you get off the lift do not go on the train. Instead, look to your right to find a trash can. Go over to it, crouch, and look in between the can and the wall. There should be a Johnson Cigar burning away. Additionally, go to the armory. As you are coming up the stairs, you will hear the man shooting his shotgun and talking. Kill the Elites and go through the door. Jump over the turret and look to the right. Jump on the lights sticking out of the wall, then jump over the rail. Get on one of the beams and jump off it onto one of the rails. There will be a small room with no doors. Jump onto that and bash the trash can. When you look on the floor, you will see Johnson's cigar.

Grunts Birthday Party Mode In Arbiter
Play the mission on the legendary difficulty setting. Proceed until you reach the first Banshee section. Immediately fly straight down to the bottom of the level. Search the cracks where the large cylinders connect to the station to find a circle of Grunts dancing around a skull. Get the skull and the words "Grunt Birthday Party" will appear. When you get the skull, all headshots that kill the enemies will cause them to explode as if a plasma grenade were attached to them. This works well if you aim for a Grunt in the middle of a group of enemies. Also, this may only work for projectile weapons, but does work for the Covenent carbine and the Covenent sniper rifle.

Sword Cancel
This trick can help you get up to tricky areas in online mode or single player mode. All you have to do is aim your covenant energy sword at an ally or foe and press the attack button when you do press the x button before you hit him, and you'll be flying towards the enemy. This could be used if enemy's are standing on top of you..
