| '''Unggoy Riders''' are select Unggoy that ride [[Jiralhanae]] into battle. Some Grunt Riders have a tendency to develop an obsession with biofuels, power management, and gladiatorial fights. Other Grunt Riders suffer “accidents” at the fists of the Brutes if they get too bossy. The rest simply hope to survive long enough to get promoted to [[Banished Locust|Locust]] driver or methane hauler.<ref name="HW2">'''[[Halo Wars 2]]'''</ref>

| Unggoy Riders are exclusive to [[Yapyap]] the Destroyer and can be built at [[Raid Camp]]s in place of [[Jiralhanae Jumper]]s. Grunt Riders perform well against structures, okay against infantry, poorly against vehicles, and cannot attack aircraft. In [[Blitz]] Grunt riders cost 50 energy. Grunt Riders typically outperform both Jump pack Brutes and [[Goliath]]s in engagements.
