  • How to unlock Look Out for the Little Guys

    Fortunately, the number of Grunts on this level is fairly limited. the real trick is to let the Flood and Covenant fight it out with each other, than pass through when the fighting has finally stopped. The flood will almost always beat the covenant or at least wipe out most of the grunts before they lose. Just skip past the rest in whatever vehicle you’re using.The majority of the grunts will be encountered within the first part of the level as you escape the pyramid. Once you get past the first core and inside on the bridge, the grunts are gone until you get close to the scene where you lost the tank in "Assault on the Control Room."

    On Co-op, you can have one player kill the grunts while the other player hangs back to get that profile the achievement, which makes this a little bit easier.

  • Major pain in the ass on solo. Super easy on Co-op.
  • I couldn't imagine it being possible without being punishing if it must be done solo.
  • Good reason to replay my favorite level of all the Halo games.
  • I... just... Yeah, this one is, hands down, going to be the hardest one for me to get. Not gonna lie. I just can't resist shooting the little bastards every time I see them.
  • The question that arises for me is, can your co-op partner kill grunts or can no grunts die by player hand? If your co-op partner can kill them this is easy, if not then... So. Many. Fuel Rod Grunts. By every platform you need to land on.
  • But....but...but .... *sniff* grunts MUST die... *sob*
  • ALL GRUNTS MUST BE EXTERMINATED... tho
  • @5 I'd imagine that it goes for any player in the game.
  • i just did the mission and my partner who was a spawn for me got it and i didnt so both dont have to do it just one has to not kill grunts
  • Why they make acheivement that doesn't let you enjoy Funeral Skull. This makes no sense.
  • I can't even get out of the God damn Control Room without dying, because of all the little bastards that are waiting outside for you. This achievement is bullshit. FUCK THIS BANDANA SKULL AND BOOM SKULL ON EVERYTHING DIES.
  • If you REALLY want to do this solo you have to play smart, single out the elites and kill them quick, that in turn creates mass hysteria amongst the grunts and gives you a window to RUNNNNNN like a mad man to the next area/check point. Also avoid explosives, this only makes it harder. Meaning you have to take care with your shots (if you have a rocket launcher) or simply just avoiding using grenades. Timing also become a big part of this, when the major grunts come with their fuel rod cannons you have to run between shots and make sure you are behind cover
  • Been trying this on solo this morning... no luck. I somehow manage to kill one or something... ohwell coop here I come I guess :-/
  • Yeah reloading checkpoints still counts any kills :( So you either have to be surgically precise with you method....or stick in another controller and simply play as the guest ;) Or find a Halo friend! That is normally the best option because then you have someoe to blame if something messes up =D
  • We tried it on legendary but we didn´t get out of the controll room. At the last door we couldn´t kill the elites fast enough. We will try this again after we have beaten all the other levels with their achievements. I know this could be easier if only would kill them, but the challenge only makes this interesting :)
  • I did it on Solo and didn't get the achievement. I have no idea how I didn't, just wanted to come to see if it's glitched.
  • Well, I don't see anything about other enemies (flood, sentinels, fellow covenant) killing the grunts. So, after you take out the first four sentinels and open the door, run back some, and let the sentinels take out the grunts. And if you have the funeral and boom skulls on, just sit back, and enjoy the fireworks while praying that the elites and jackals get taken out as well (they should, with boom on). Might suck at the end of the level in the final battle, as from my legendary experience, most of the covenant survive that final battle.
  • For Look Out for the Little Guys just plug in a second controller and log in with another profile. Then do the entire mission with your second profile so your first doesn't kill any Grunts, move your main account every once in a wile and comit suicide to get yourself closer. Special Thanks to Qoncrete for his advice
  • Anyone want to play co-op? Send me a message on Live. Gamertag is Divine Warlord
  • Damn it, you guys just reminded me of my other controller in my drawer. Split screen attempt here I come.
  • I did it, with the guest method though, even then it was a pain in the ass at the point you had to get a banshee and then fly up to the next generator. Anyway. 1000G in this game :D
  • Splitscreen Co-Op one shooting all the grunts confirmed. Got the achievement.
  • Plug in another controller sign in as guest and get 'er done!
  • Looking for someone to do this with. Speed Run it and we should both have it in no more then 30 mins. GT: Pusherman
  • If you insist on doing this solo, kill the elites; the grunts will run around screaming- this is why we like them. Jackals, however are a pain in the a$$.
  • looking for a co-op partner to do this level with me so i can get no grunt kills and no picking up weapons, im in uk, so looking for a european player, please add me SARG3NT SCARR willing to help with any other achievments anyone needs, especially library ones, still need those.
  • im lookin 2 do this and a couple more if any 1 interested let me no my tag is predator 9mm im in the uk
  • This achievement goes against everything i believe in, in Halo.
  • I would do this using the split screen cheat, but I dont have 2 controllers so my cousin is coming over and I'm gonna get him to do all the work. I wont switch weapons either so I'll get 2 cheevs in 1 :D
  • Confirmed. Just plug in a second controller and you can get both two betrayals achievements in one go
  • Might just do this with a second controller.. Did it on Legendary solo while I was also going for not picking up weapons and the achievement didn't unlock... Not going to try again for a while after all this but when I do it'll be co-op for sure.
  • If anyone is able to run this on Legendary with me, I'd like to knock this and Leave It Where It Lay out at the same time. I have all the skulls if needed. Gamertag is Banana Smurfer.
  • Hopefully this will be easy on splitscreen and its on heroic.... i beat every halo game on 360 on legendary excpet halo wars... D:
  • I dont think reverting to save works (like with hes unstoppable). Dont try to get this and leave it where it lay at the same time unless you want a world of hurt. Using a second controller to massacre everything is best. if you cant do this i think funeral skull helps as every grunt killed by flood/sentinels potentially takes out several more.
  • Looking to get this achievement. Send me a msg GT : xX H311Spawn Xx
  • Do it co-op. Your partner can kill as many grunts as he wants and you can sit back. (PS dont throw random grenades into groups of guys, u never know when a grunt is hiding somewhere)
  • Looking for somebody to do this with if your interested hit me up. GT Mr BOND 3535
  • Just tried this solo, ended up killing one grunt fairly near the beginning, instantly reverted my save to when i didnt, and scraped through this without killing another one yet no achievement. Its either glitched or revert to last save doesn't count.
  • I bet if you Save and Quit at Checkpoints, with out killing Grunts, and then if you happen to kill a Grunt on Accident you can Dashboard Quit out or Turn off the XBox then come in with the Resume Game opinion. Similar what people were doing if they died doing the Library Achievement. I also put on the 2 skulls that affect the Grunts so you will know for sure if you happen to kill one! Hope this helps.
  • Co-op has also not worked, i killed no grunts and threw no grenades and partner killed the grunts. Nothing. Solo speed-run again and definitely no grunts killed. >.
  • I'm looking for a co-Op parter for this achievement. add me if interested. i also need a couple other achievements if anyone wants to team with me to get them. add me. user name is r1puan3won3.
  • need on this and other achievments. If anybody needs help on skulls and terminals message me cause i know were all the skulls are
  • and terminals GT: SpartanNick 198
  • If anyone wants to help me get this in Co-op I'll gladly return the favor. GT: BrokenWarbear
  • Just finished this in Solo. Not at all as difficult as ppl are making it out to be. Just use the Bandanna Skull and pick up the Sniper at the top of the tower right as soon as you 1st get outside. Then pick up the next Rocket Launcher you find (there are tons in this level) and use the Sniper for Elites and Jackals and the RL for any and all Flood. Just be careful where you shoot and run past any engagements that you can. Personally only had to restart checkpoint about 5 times. I also turned on the Grunt Funeral Skull so that when the flood take out a grunt it kills most others around it - Very Useful. Gl & Hf.
  • @47 Helped a lot, but I used a shotgun instead of the RL for close quarters, especially helpful when the flood swarm you.
  • Alright everyone, listen up. I have completed all the achivements in this game and this one would be BY FAR the most difficult if it was not easily exploitable. If you kill a grunt by accident, quickly reload your last checkpoint. Trust me, it works.
  • Let me give you a helpful tip. Equipment needed: 2 controllers and 2 accounts (could be guest) Essentially play along the mission on legendary with the account that you don't want to have the achievement spamming grenades due to the epic effect of the bandana skull (Found in he fourth mission) and leave your other controller idle (the one that wants the cheevo) and simply complete the mission. Your main account will merely act as a spawn point which will evidently get you Leave it Where it Lay and Look out fo the Little Guys because it won't have killed anyone or picked up a new weapon. BAM cheevos clocked. ElrondHalfelven
  • It seems pretty hard for an achievement, but relatively, it's super easy. Just listen to what the guys have to say above.
  • This one is a breeze for co-op.
  • Easy, have a buddy play with you on heroic and turn on bandanna. Do a run through with one player NOT SHOOTING! Have this player do some chilling out, relaxing, maxing all cool (maybe even shoot some bball outside of the school) while the other runs through the level and bamfs it. Then switch off and have the other player chill. Since you get warped, and dont shoot ANYONE you get the achievement. Two run throughs and everyone is happy.

  • Got this and leave it where it lay split screen. Def the best way to do it. Doesn't matter if you die, just play on a secondary account and you'll get these with no problem.
  • i need help too and dont try to get leave it where it lay at the same time just makes it that much harder GT: hidden assasin6
  • Damn, I just made it out of the control room and past the first set of grunts and smoked the one elite. While the grunts were running around in circles freaking out I ran to the door switch. Suddenly a purple elite and shield jackal spawned out of nowhere. Glitch? Then when I opened the next door set there was nothing spawned out there. Gonna see if I can finish the level I guess...maybe I found a new glitch...
  • Dang, I wanted to nail 'em SO bad!
  • Need to do this and a few others, also available for Halo Wars and Halo 4. GT: FaceCakeDude
  • Guys feel free to contact me if you would like someone to do the achievement with. I need the achievement myself however I am happy to help with a few other achievements if you need :)

  • Ugh I hate not being able to kill these damn little guys...thinking of trying to use my main live account as the one for this and the achievement for not picking up a weapon as well...may work...either way I will still be able to KILL ALL GRUNTS!

  • I can help you out with both Micky if you still need them.
  • @75, would you be a kind enough soul to help me get this one and 2 others!? Or anyone for that matter T.T GT: Freshmastafunk
  • Man, my GF and I decided to try this one out, it was really fun to do. The only problem is, right at the very end I fucked up and sniped a Grunt that was behind the Elite I shot. We were on the final run to the banshees to get to the 3rd station. It was extremely frustrating for me & now I'm gonna have to go back now, right after she leaves for work and play it again with a dumby controller. I'll let you know how it goes.
  • Got it.
  • Can you still get this achievement using the co - op method where you use a dummy controller, cause I did it today, but the cheevo didn't pop and I know I did it on heroic because I got the brovershield achievement as well.
  • I wouldn't recommend trying to do this solo in conjunction with "Leave It Where It Lay" because the grunts are deadly in Legendary. Co-op is a breeze though.
  • Solo'd this in Heroic with the beginning glitch succesfully twice without killing any grunts, but didn't received the achievement yet... I'm really sure I did not kill any grunts, because I'm using the Grunt Funeral skull to warn me and I skipped like 2/3 of all enemies in the game... Does anyone have some advice?
