Flag Dropped

Flag Dropped

Halo 3

Flag Dropped is a Halo 3 multi-player Achievement added in TU2, in which the player has to get two Flag Carrier Kills during any ranked or social match in a Legendary or Mythic Map Pack map^[1].

It's worth a sum of 25 Gamerpoints.

Tactics

Generally, this achievement is easy, but it still requires some luck. Hiding near the flag if it is at a corner will help, but watch out for a Flag Carrier's melee.
If played on Template:Levelname, the easiest way is to get a Spartan Laser. So if the Flag Carrier gets on a vehicle like a Warthog, you can stop it with one shot from your laser.
Sniper Rifle is also useful, but if the Flag Carrier is protected by a Bubble Shield or Regenerator, the sniper will be useless. If the Flag Carrier is on a vehicle, it can be tricky to execute an accurate shot.
Another tactic on Avalanche is to get the shotgun and wait at your base for someone to take the flag. (note this requires a lot of patience)
