*Seriously this article needs to be reorganized and fixed, given more attention as well, it is riddled with false statements and 'leet' speech in some places.-- [[User:Black Mercy|Black Mercy]] 23:01, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

BigQuote|'''Update''': Rumors of the Scarab Gun being in the campaign level [[The Great Journey (Level)|The Great Journey]] have been proved to be false. But later proven it true. The unknown man said if you only kill the brutes on the bridge and land the Banshee on the scarab the shield should be gone. Go inside and you should see the scarab gun inside

QUESTION: WHAT BRIDGE DO U HAVE 2 KILL THE BRUTES?
QUESTION: WHAT BRIDGE DO U HAVE 2 KILL THE BRUTES?


ANSWER:The room of Brutes in front of the Scarab that, once killed, trigger the cutscene where Johnson takes the Scarab and talks to the Arbiter. (Unconfirmed)I also heard it must be done on Legendary.

Question 2: how do you kill those brutes without killing the others? For me, there are some places (like the entrance) that I cannot get pass unless the Brutes are killed.

'''Update''': There is in fact 2 Scarab guns on Metropolis and one on [[Outskirts]], these 2 extra guns however only spawn for about 5 seconds after which they disappear.

Almost every scarab in Halo 2 has one including some that do not have scarabs???WTF?[[User:SargeLIVES|SargeLIVES]] 23:51, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
== Another Video tutorial needed for Outskirts  ==
The two video tutorials for the Scarab gun in Outskirts should be replaced with a video of someone actually getting that. I'll post a video link here if I find one, but I encourage others to do the same. --[[User:John010117|John010117]] 23:59, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
== Alternative way of getting the gun, without a banshee ==

It works. Trust me.
== Halo  3 Scarab Gun  ==
Is there a sequnce order for the scarab gun:or there on at all -Halo7
the scarab gun in halo 3 in on the covenant on top of the citadel.
No, the one on The Covenant is fake. There is however the possibility of one on The Storm. There's been a rumor going around on the Bungie.net forums and Youtube about a secret hidden assault rifle. The Assault Rifle is real. But no one has been able to reach it yet. One modder managed to reach it and it turned out to be a Scarab Gun. However no one else has been able to reach it so we don't know for sure if it's really a Scarab Gun. [[User talk:General Heed|General Heed]] 05:37, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
== Scripted Destruction... ==
I though id point out that the scarab's attacks in halo 2 are scripted... b/c if you stand on the tank that gets shot by the scarab then you go flying backwards but take no damage... same if you get stepped on... and if you want to check this... then before the marine says, "See! Look! It's Terror!" jump off the balcony and run and jump on top of the tank... it pretty funny sometimes to see where you end up flying to b/c it pretty much random...

==scarab gun/plasma rifle comparison and pictures==
I think there should be more pictures and a comparison between the 2 rifles.[[User talk:Greatleader|Greatleader]] 18:27, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
== Canon ==
The much disputed Halo Encylopidia says that this weapon is canon.
Oddly, I find that the bit about the scarab gun that it gives reasonable. We already know that the scarab's main cannon (the H3 one, but it clearly states that the two scarabs are different models.)Is an enlarged version of the hunter’s main canon. Assuming this, it would be able to be detached. It says NOTHING about it able to be hand-held; it just says portable, which can mean it can be moved, not necessarily carried.
so, should we reformat this article so that the main entry gives an in universe view? or is the "new-info-from-enclyopidia" thing still going on? [[User talk:Jabberwockxeno|Jabberwockxeno]] 17:29, October 26, 2009 (UTC)
:Could you provide a description of the weapon from Halo Encyclopedia?

:: Argh, you need to pick up a copy so I don't have to type this stuff all the time. first of all it treats the cannon of the scarab and the scarab gun as the same device, with that in mind, it basicly says that it is a more bigger, more powerful version of the assault cannon. it also says that it can be detached for use as a portable weapon.

== Is There A Halo 3 Scarab Gun ==
No way , there is no possible way there could be a halo 3 scarab gun,if there was , it would of been found by now.Ive seen fake youtube videos that I think are mods- ironskull08
== Split Equally? ==
If there are four guns, why does the article focus on one of them, and then mashes the others into another section? <font style="papyrus">[[User:Bioniclepluslotr|<font color="lime">'''Bioniclepluslotr'''</font>]]</font> 22:47, 29 August 2012 (EDT)
:Because the other three are obtained via glitch/game-exploitation whereas the first is the official and only one left behind by Bungie. — <span style="font-size:16px; font-family:OrbitronMedium;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span>  22:57, 29 August 2012 (EDT)
== Article Cleanup Preposition ==
I'd like to propose a number of changes that would make the article (I think) much more accurate and complete. I'd simply edit the article, but I wish to have consensus first.
*Remove references to the "second Outskirts Scarab Gun" as it doesn't actually exist, and the article's wording is confusing. The section describes an "alternate" way of obtaining the Outskirts Gun, but it's basically the same as the first method. There are other ways of obtaining the Outskirts Gun, and I could describe them in place of the current "alternate" method.
*Update the "other scarab guns" section to make the walkthroughs for getting them more complete (especially the Alternate Metropolis gun). Adding some info about these scripted scarab guns would be interesting, too.
*Update the Walkthrough for the "real" scarab gun. There's more than one way to get the banshee through the tunnel now (AUP, which is far easier), and there's box launching which has been known for years.
I will wait 2 days to hear feedback before going through with these changes. However, if I don't hear feedback in 2 days, I'm going to edit anyway. [[User:Weesee|Weesee]] ([[User talk:Weesee|talk]]) 11:36, October 22, 2020 (EDT)
