First, go on to the first bridge, and make sure you have a [[ | First, go on to the first bridge, and make sure you have a [[type-1 Antipersonnel Grenade|plasma grenade]]. Try not to wake up any [[Unggoy|Grunts]], as they will be annoying and dangerous. Throw a plasma grenade on the ground, right next to a [[Shade]]. Right when the grenade explodes, quickly press '''X''' on Xbox (default controls) or '''E''' in [[Halo: Combat Evolved (PC port)|''Halo: Combat Evolved'' for PC]] to get in the Shade. If you're lucky, the shade will right itself, and you will fall safely to the ground. | ||
Another way that requires skill, practice, luck and co-op is to jump. This cannot be done on Halo PC. First, when you get to the bridge with the sleeping grunts, jump off next to the Shade on the '''left''' side, and you will fall on a thin ledge. Stay close to the wall to do this. If you accidentally wake up any Grunts, the Elites will shoot at you. Since you lose shields when you fall, you can die. Run down the ledge to the lowest part, then a little further. Have your partner commit suicide, then fall down. You must be close to the wall or this will not work. You will fall past a ledge, where your partner should respawn. You will respawn next to him. Run along the ledge, taking care not to fall, as it is slippery. Run over to the part that is directly above the large rocks. Drop onto them, and you will survive. | Another way that requires skill, practice, luck and co-op is to jump. This cannot be done on Halo PC.
