The spread of the Mauler's shell severely limits its range, and any weapon that can be used outside of close range can take down a user with a Mauler.

The Mauler's design lineage traces back to the [[Development of Halo: Combat Evolved|development]] of ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''. During the 1999-2000-era third-person builds of the game, the UNSC were to have a weapon referred to as the "[[Cut Halo: Combat Evolved weapons#Excavator|Excavator]]". The weapon was ultimately shelved, but would eventually form the basis for the Mauler in ''Halo 3''. [[Cut Halo 3 weapons#Excavator|Early versions]] of the Mauler concept showcase a form much more similar to the original Excavator, including [[Subanese crystal|Blamite]] as its ammunition before eventually evolving into the design seen today.{{Ref/Book|Id=AoH3|AoH3|Page=61 | The Mauler's design lineage traces back to the [[Development of Halo: Combat Evolved|development]] of ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''.
