All loadouts consist of the [[DMR]] and [[M6G Personal Defense Weapon System|Magnum]] for easy headshots.
 
==Score Attack==
In score attack, it consists of 120 Grunts that spawn in 5 waves, with the ''[[Catch skull]]'', the custom Red Skull which enhances sight and hearing, the ''[[Grunt Birthday Party]]'' skull, and the ''[[Cloud skull]]''.
 
==Trivia==
*In ''Halo: Reach'', Gruntpocalypse is regarded as one of the best way to earn a high amount of [[Rank (Halo: Reach)|cR]] over a relatively short period of time.
*Grunts in this mode are much less likely to run away when injured. However, they will still run if their leaders and allies fall beside them.
*The game type is deceptively difficult on higher difficulties such as [[Heroic]] or [[Legendary]].
*Every Grunt squad usually has one Grunt with a Fuel Rod Gun or Plasma Launcher; However, it is possible to have a entire wave that doesn't have any heavy weapons at all.
*The most dangerous Grunts are the Grunt Heavies carrying Fuel Rod Guns, as they can kill you very quickly.
*Using [[Armor Lock]] is highly recommended, as this can protect you from Grunt Heavies wielding Fuel Rod Guns, [[plasma grenade]]s, and [[Plasma Pistol]] overcharge shots.
