A group of Grunts in a match of Firefight.

Gruntpocalypse is a Firefight gametype in Halo: Reach Firefight where players kill oncoming waves of Grunts (Unggoy).

Overview

Gruntpocalypse is similar to the Bonus Round featured in Halo 3: ODST Firefight. Likewise, it involves a massive army of Unggoy of various ranks that will spawn continuously.

All load-outs consist of the DMR and M6 pistol for easy headshots. (hence the use of 'grunt birthday party' skull.) A custom red skull is used during Gruntpocalypse which enhances sight and hearing of the Grunts to make the game a little harder.

Trivia

  • In Halo: Reach, Gruntpocalypse is regarded as a way to earn a high amount of Cr over a relatively short period of time.
  • These Grunts are much less likely to run away when injured. However, they will still run if their leaders and allies fall beside them.
  • The game type is deceptively difficult on higher difficulties such as Heroic or Legendary.
  • Every Grunt squad (4 in a squad usually) that is 'spawned' usually has one grunt with a fuel rod or plasma launcher.
  • The most dangerous grunts are the heavies and suiciders,especially on Heroic and Legendary, as they can kill you extremely quickly.
  • If possible, it is recommended to have at-least 2 players, as player 1 can use the mounted gun and player 2 can protect him.
