A Rumble Pit is evenly comparable to a Lone Wolves match, save that it is not ranked but social. A good stratagem to work with on any given Free-for-All match is to step back, watch, wait, and charge. To bluntly hurtle towards foes is a guaranteed lose. For example if it is a [[Guardian ( | A Rumble Pit is evenly comparable to a Lone Wolves match, save that it is not ranked but social. A good stratagem to work with on any given Free-for-All match is to step back, watch, wait, and charge. To bluntly hurtle towards foes is a guaranteed lose. For example if it is a [[Guardian (level)|Guardian]] Slayer match, you can primarily see hordes of Spartans and Elites having at it in the main arena in the center.

Close-combat is ''almost'' always ill-advised in a Rumble Pit as it can help the leaders get easy points with better [[weaponry]]. However, using a 'standard' melee with an Energy Sword (as opposed to the 'lunge' performed by using the fire button) can be ''extremely'' effective, as the fast cooldown allows multiple kills in succession, especially if - as usual - opponents are grouped together closely. Although this strategy is almost guaranteed to result in death, the potential score gain often makes it a worthwhile tactic. | Close-combat is ''almost'' always ill-advised in a Rumble Pit as it can help the leaders get easy points with better [[weaponry]].
