'''Killtastrophe''' is a multikill medal awarded in [[Halo 3]] [[Multiplayer]] for killing 8 opponents within 4 seconds of each previous kill. It is represented by a blue circle with eight silver stars. This Medal is extremely hard to get because you will probably be killed before you get it. One of the best ways to earn it is to wait at a common place or doorway and when enemy's come down or come around the corner you kill them (Note: This only work if there are a large number of players). Another good way of getting this medal would be throwing a tripmine[http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/TR/9_Antipersonnel_Mine] into a group of enemies, since Bungie increased it's power. To further this effect, throw a grenade with the tripmine. This will cause more damage, or finish off people who have their shields down from the tripmine. There are only two medals above this prestigious medal, which are the [[Killpocalypse Medal]] and the [[Killionaire Medal]]. Whenever someone gets this, the multiplayer announcer will say the name of the medal. He will start at double and work his way up, like this: Double kill, Triple kill, Overkill, and so on.


The '''Killtastrophe''' medal is awarded for killing eight opponents within four seconds of each other in standard [[multiplayer]] games (and ''[[Halo: Spartan Assault]]'') and within less time in [[campaign]] and [[Firefight]]. In ''[[Halo 4]]'' multiplayer and [[Spartan Ops]], the kills need only be within 4.5 seconds of each other.

Originally, the medal was represented by eight silver stars on a light blue circle. In ''Halo 4'' it is represented by eight white stars on a brown circle rimmed with orange and brown. The medal is monochrome and imposed on a shield in ''Halo: Spartan Assault'' and ''[[Halo: Spartan Strike]]''. It is also emblazoned with only seven stars, and differing only from the [[Killimanjaro|Killamanjaro]] medal by an unshaded section at the bottom of the shield.
 
==Gameplay Tips==
*This medal is extremely hard to get because of the combined difficulty of killing eight players in a row without getting killed within a certain time limit. One method of earning the medal is to wait at a common place and ambush incoming players. This only works if there are numerous players.
*Another option in ''[[Halo 3]]'' is throwing a [[TR/9 trip mine|Trip Mine]] into a group of enemies. To further this effect, throw a [[grenade]] with the Trip Mine. This will cause more damage and finish off people who have their shields down from the Trip Mine.
