| '''Gruntpocalypse''' is a gametype in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' and ''[[Halo Infinite]]'' [[Firefight]] where players must kill oncoming waves of [[Unggoy|Grunts]] until the Set ends. | | '''Gruntpocalypse''' is a new gametype that appears in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' [[Firefight]]. |

| ==Overview== | | ==Overview== |
| Gruntpocalypse is similar to the Bonus Round featured in standard Firefight. In a Gruntpocalypse match, the player faces waves consisting entirely of vast numbers of [[Unggoy|Grunts]] instead of the regular sets of enemies. | | Gruntpocalypse is similar to the Bonus Round featured in ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'' Firefight. Likewise, it involves a massive army of [[Unggoy]] of various ranks that will spawn continuously. All skulls will be activated during the match. |

| All loadouts consist of the [[M392 Designated Marksman Rifle|DMR]] and [[M6G Personal Defense Weapon System|Magnum]] for easy headshots, with different [[Armor abilities|Armor Abilities]] available.

| | |
| On default, the grunts spawn on the ground, instead of dropping from covenant [[Phantom]]s as enemies in other modes do.
| |
| | |
| ==Score Attack==
| |
| In score attack, the game consists of 120 Grunts that spawn in 5 waves, with the ''[[Halo 2 skulls|Catch skull]]'', the custom Red Skull which enhances sight and hearing, the ''[[Halo 2 skulls#Grunt Birthday Party|Grunt Birthday Party]]'' skull, and the ''[[Halo: Reach skulls|Cloud skull]]''.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *In ''Halo: Reach'', Gruntpocalypse is regarded as one of the best way to earn a high amount of [[Rank (Halo: Reach)|cR]] over a relatively short period of time{{citation needed}}.
| |
| *Grunts in this mode are much less likely to run away when injured. However, they will still run if their leaders and allies fall beside them.
| |
| *The game type is deceptively difficult on higher difficulties such as [[Heroic]] or [[Legendary]].
| |
| *Every Grunt squad usually has one Grunt with a Fuel Rod Gun or Plasma Launcher; However, it is possible to have an entire wave that doesn't have any heavy weapons at all.
| |
| *The most dangerous Grunts are the Grunt Heavies carrying Fuel Rod Guns, as they can kill you very quickly.
| |
| *Using [[Armor lock]] is highly recommended, as this can protect you from Grunt Heavies wielding Fuel Rod Guns, [[plasma grenade]]s, and [[Plasma Pistol]] overcharge shots.
| |
| **On certain maps such as [[Corvette]], [[Armor abilities#Sprint|Sprint]] may be a better idea than Armor Lock because it enables the player to obtain extra ammo quickly before the next wave of Grunts spread out.
