Trivia
- In Halo: Reach, Gruntpocalypse is regarded as one of the best way to earn a high amount of 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 grenades, and Plasma Pistol overcharge shots.
