Deutoros-pattern Scarab: Difference between revisions

In [[Halo 3]], one way to destroy it is to damage the joints on the legs, enough so that the Scarab must shut down temporarily, then boarding it and destroying the reactor. However, there is another method. If the rear is hit with enough firepower, the rear armor will come off, thus exposing the core to small and heavy arms fire. In the level "[[The Covenant]]" in Halo 3, this tactic is commonly used via the [[Hornet]] gunships. In the level "[[The Storm]]" there is a crane with an elevator near the Scarab. If you get on the elevator you can jump off and land on the Scarab if it is near the elevator. Then just casually walk to the power core and watch it blow. In halo 3 the scarab beam takes a while to kill you which gives you a chance to dogde it.
