*If you manage to skyjack a Banshee or blow another Banshee up, you will notice the Heretic Elite has a Plasma Rifle equipped, instead of the Covenant Carbine. This could just be a weapon change for the pilot, maybe because he needed a lighter weapon to fly in the Banshee so it doesn't make it too uncomfortable for him. However, there's an equal chance it's an Easter egg, since not many players would pay attention to the actual dead body.

*During the [[Banshee]] part, you can get out of your Banshee and land on the [[Phantom]]. This is hard to balance on, and is recommended to use at the end of the part as there is a high possibility to fall off.

*During the Banshee fight, it is possible to exit your Banshee and immediately board an enemy Heretic Banshee. This however, is quite a difficult tactic. When you do, the Elite inside will have a Plasma Rifle.

*Should the player watch the Phantoms that drop off the troops at the beginning of the level when they go out of view zoom in with your binoculars they will fall and spin out of control and hit the lower part of the level. If the player has the Acrophobia skull enabled they can fly out to the Phantoms and will be prompted to flip “Banshee.” This is likely a placeholder as the player cannot pilot a Phantom in Halo 2 through normal means.

*Many of the Grunt dialogue in this level is some of the most strange and humorous, Including ''If we stand here any longer, we be on date!'' and ''Hard to tell, but me no female''. It's the first official time you can hear them clearly, and can listen to the strange things they say, because up until now, Grunts have been against you.
