Any: Explosive fun!

Ok, first off, you'll need 2 Skulls, one's easy one's easy but only if you have patience. Get the Sputnik and Grunt Birthday Party Skulls This gives the ability to move stuff easily and headshots = BOOM! Now, once you have those, i reccomend going to EASY as thats easy to get Headshots as they don't know how to move lol, well get the Covenant to group around, blow off one head, and watch 'em fly.

Any: Excellent Dual Wield

Get a plasma rifle and a smg. The plasma rifle takes down shields and the smg drains health and shields. Good when you find a red brute plasma rifle, because it does more damage.

Any: A more accurate crosshair

You know the battle rifle and the covvie carbine's crosshair? seems accurate enough, dont you think? well, theres more to it. When you point the crosshair to the enemy's vital points(like the head), it will have a dot in the middle of the crosshair, so you can kill the enemy more faster.

Any Campaign (if you get the sputnik skull): Sputnik Skull Ablilities

By making explosions more powerful, it does something else too. It makes your bashing way more powerful. When you bash an enemy, the will do a full 360 if they survive, and leave themselves open for assassination. Also you can move dead bodies, just for fun and messing around.

Any level with brutes: Good weapon against brutes

Whenever you see a covenant carbine, pick it up, because it only takes a couple shots to take off a brute's helmet and then get a headshot. This is important because brutes are a lot harder in halo 2 than halo 3.

Outskirts: Shooting From the Rooftops (any difficulty)

From the start of the level in the outskirts find the stairs that lead you up to the roof well on one side there will be ammo under the stairs but make sure to take Sgt. Johnsons sniper after you kill the Hunters so you dont waste the ammo and then get the ammo from there.. go around the corner to where the jakals are shooting at you kill them and wait for the pelican to arrive you will see two black tyres stacked on top of eachother or somethin jump on them and then jump to the next platform look to you right and you will find a dead grunt on the floor go into that little closed in place and there will be ammo there so you can get more sniper, after that you can try and jump onto the orange roofs and then there is a little awning stickin out try to jump on that it might be a little hard and then you can start shootin from the rooftops you can also try to get on the other roofs from that point.... have fun!!!

Outskirts: Getting the IWHBYD skull

When you get the(actually just pick it up) the IWHBYD you will be transported to the ground level and 7 waves(not sure I didnt count) of silver(spec ops?) bloodthirsty elites waiting to eat you(actually just mutalate you). Be careful though, even if you have the Envy skull activiated, if you touch them(or get close enough, I'm not sure) they will know that you are there and they will kill you. it took me 1 hour to actually make the skull say "I Would Have Been Your Daddy". Whew!

Outskirts (2 Level)(after Cairo Station): Skip Sniper Ally on Outskirts

Okay when you start on outskirts you have 2 choices, clear and hold the area, or leave the marines behind, your choice, which ever one you chose there is 2 allyes behind one of the buildings ont the left hand side where the hunter's come out, take one of those, you'll get around to a spawn point where some covenant will come, don't worry, if you're there they wont spawn, you'll see a bit of a junk pile on the ground in the corner, do a small run up, crouch-jump when you're on the pile and hold forward, you'll get on a ledge, go to the left and turn around, and time it right so you don't hit a roof, rouch jump to the other ledge across you, then go right jumping on the roof's and other miscallenous things, you'll soon get to a bridge, jump on it, then go to the railling on the far right, near a wierd pit thing to the left, you can fall down and continue up the ramp, or grenade crouch jump to the side and go on another roof, and there, you just skipped about 5 minutes of gameplay getting snapped by Jackals.
