'''Fear the Pink Mist''' is a ''[[Halo 3]]'' [[Achievement]] represented by a pink circle with a [[Type-33 Guided Munitions Launcher|Needler]] and five hearts surrounding the weapon. It was originally awarded for killing five enemies with a Needler, in a ranked, or free-for-all match or [[Campaign]]. The name of the achievement is a reference to the large pink explosion that occurs when Needler projectiles detonate on a target. It is worth five [[Gamerscore]]. The achievement can be easily obtained on almost any campaign level.
'''Fear the Pink Mist''' is a ''[[Halo 3]]'' [[Halo 3 Achievement|Achievement]] represented by a red circle with a [[Needler]] and five hearts surrounding the weapon. It is awarded for killing 5 enemies with a Needler, in a ranked or free-for-all match or [[Campaign]]. The name of the achievement is a reference to the large pink explosion that occurs when Needler projectiles detonate on a target as well as the pink ray of Needler projectiles. This is one the  easiest achievements to get.


Following the shutdown of [[Xbox 360]] ''Halo'' online services on January 13, [[2022]], this achievement is no longer attainable in online multiplayer, and therefore can only be unlocked in the campaign.{{Ref/Site|Id=shutdown2|D=23|M=1|Y=2022|URL=https://www.windowscentral.com/halo-xbox-360-servers-have-been-shut-down2021|Site=Windows Central|Page=Halo Xbox 360 servers have been shut down, ending an era}}{{Ref/Site|Id=shutdown1|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/sunsetting-halo-xbox-360-game-services-in-2021|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Sunsetting Halo Xbox 360 Game Services in 2021}}
==Acquirement==
*This Achievement may be acquired easily in the campaign level ''[[Sierra 117 (Level)|Sierra 117]]''. At the river area, it is easy to kill the [[Brute]]s and [[Grunt]]s repeatedly with a Needler.
*Another good area to get this achievement is the [[Drone]] attack on ''[[The Storm (Level)|The Storm]]''. If you kill one of the [[Drones]] holding a Needler, you can quite easily shower the remaining Drones with the projectiles.
*Another level this achievement can easily be accomplished is on ''[[The Covenant (Level)|The Covenant]]'', due to the many Needlers dropped by Grunts and Drones.
*On the level Halo, you may complete the achievement using Needlers obtained from [[Flood Combat Forms]].


==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*"Pink Mist" is also a phrase from the film ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jarhead_%28film%29 Jarhead]'', in which it is used to describe the effects of a headshot on a sniper's target. The target's brains and blood would shoot out of the exit wound on their head, causing a pink/red mist to stay in the air for a few seconds.
*''[[Sierra 117]]'' and [[Crow's Nest (Level)|Crow's Nest]] are the levels this Achievement is most commonly achieved on along with the level ''The Storm''. This is very easy to do on any level or difficulty, though.
*This is one of the first, and easiest, achievements the player is able to get via campaign.

*The ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'' [[Pink and Deadly]] and ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' [[A Spoonful of Blamite]] achievements are similar to this achievement, but instead of having to kill 5 enemies, the player must kill 10 enemies.
