As with [[Promethean Knight|Promethean]] [[Knight Lancer]]s, red glowing bands and auras of energy emanate from the Crawler Snipe's head and mouth when charging up and firing its weapon, giving away its location. As with [[Sulok-pattern beam rifle|Beam]] [[Zubo-pattern beam rifle|Rifle]]-armed [[Kig-Yar Sniper]]s in ''[[Halo 2]]'' and ''[[Halo 3]]'', a single hit from the Binary Rifle will almost always kill the player instantly on [[Legendary]] difficulty, regardless of where it hits.

The most efficient and effective way to destroy Crawler Snipes is to use a long-range precision weapon (e.g. [[Z-250 lightrifle|LightRifle]], [[Mosa-pattern carbine|Covenant Carbine]], Binary Rifle, etc.) and fire from afar without the Crawler Snipes discovering the player's location. Sidearms with mounted scopes like the [[M6H magnum]] are also effective at killing them, provided that the player aims at the head. Much like Kig-Yar Snipers, Crawler Snipes die from a single headshot with any precision weapon. Unlike Kig-Yar Snipers, though, Crawler Snipes are always willing to hurt the player up close with their highly-damaging melee attacks, which can be more than damaging enough to fully overload a Spartan's shields.
