This weapon is meant to be fired at the body, instead of the head, as with the recent updates on [[Xbox Live]], two direct hits (4 in Halo 3) with the Brute Shot is enough to kill the target. If a target is moving, it is easier to aim it at the floor and have it bounce and hit the target instead of just directly hitting it. It is also important to note that this weapon fires in an arc, so one must compensate for accuracy by aiming higher when his target is farther away.

Just 2 rounds of the Brute Shot can kill a player faster than 1 round from the [[Rocket Launcher]] or [[Fuel Rod Gun]].


Another advantage, is the fact that the Brute Shot bayonet is effective against Brutes. A single swipe from behind is sufficient to bring a [[Brute]] down. From another angle, it may require a further two or three hits. When a Brute charges with their bayonet, an enemy must quickly dodge the oncoming attack and assault the Brute from behind with their own Brute Shot bayonet (this has to be done fast as a Brute can move extremely fast if he has you in his sights).
