*Deployable cover is often used as an area to jump off of, as it is easier to use than the [[grenade jump]] for some players. One of this tactic's best uses is to get both of the skulls from the level [[The Ark (level)]], Famine and Catch, in ''Halo 3''.

*Some people use it as wall to impede doorways in order to slow down the enemy and regroup with their team.
*There is a [[glitch]] that allows the player to become stuck, and have the Deployable Cover spawn through them.
*The only map the Deployable Cover isn't available in Forge Mode is ''[[Sandtrap (Level)|Sandtrap]]''.

*In Campaign mode, the Deployable Cover is completely immune to the projectiles fired by [[Flood]] [[Pure Form|Ranged Forms]] making it very useful on the eighth level of ''Halo 3'', ''[[Cortana (level)|Cortana]]''.

*The other main problem is that if you stand too close to a Deployable Cover then you still take damage (although not as much) and can be severely damaged, when the shield is destroyed.
*When the Deployable Cover has undergone tons of damage (Changing from Blue > Orange > Red, the best way to do is to melee), you can just shoot through it as it will collapse thus injuring the enemy hiding behind it. After you leave it for a while, it will go back to blue and will not permit you to shoot through it once more.

*Most projectile weapons that are not plasma based can shoot through the back of the Deployable Cover.

*Enemies cannot detect you through a Deployable Cover even on the highest difficulties, so you can just watch your enemies stand there while you pick them off with a [[Battle Rifle]]. This can be especially helpful on the part of [[Crow's Nest (Level)|Crow's Nest]], where you have to battle eight [[Brutes]] and a [[Chieftain]], since there are plenty of Deployable Covers around.

* It's possible to gather enough Deployable covers (like in Forge) and create a makeshift but stronger imitation of a bubble shield that does not cover the top, allowing people to possibly jump over.

*You can slowly push the Deployable cover by a vehicle without destroying it.
* The Deployable Cover is banned from matchmaking along with the [[Radar Jammer]] and [[Flare]].{{fact}}
*So far, the Deployable Cover doesn't spawn by default on any Halo 3 multiplayer maps.

* On [[Floodgate (Level)|Floodgate]], it is possible, although difficult, to place a Deployable Cover in front of the [[AIE-486H Heavy Machine Gun]] but on the walkway.  The resulting nest is extremely powerful, although it is easy to flank.
