They will usually not flee from their position unless the player is too close or out of range of their [[weapon]], in which case they will pull out a [[Type-25 Directed Energy Pistol|plasma pistol]] and attack like a normal Unggoy. They are easily dispatched using most tactics. Their armor seems to be slightly tougher than the average Unggoy, most likely to protect them from explosives and the possible backfiring of their powerful weapons. Unlike most Unggoy, it is strangely rare for Heavies to throw {{Pattern|Anskum|plasma grenade}}s.

Note that the cannon is free for a player to use after taking out its operator. In ''[[Halo 2]]'' an Unggoy Heavy must first deploy its plasma cannon before it can be used. If the Heavy carrying the plasma cannon is killed before it can deploy it then it cannot be used. This is not the case in games after ''Halo 2'', since most of the plasma cannons encountered are already deployed, with the exception of a few. They can still be used even if they are detached from their tripod mount.

In ''[[Halo 3]]'' and ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', Unggoy Heavies are seen utilizing many different heavy [[weapons]] and [[vehicles]]. They are commonly seen driving {{Pattern|Karo'etba|Ghost}}s and seem to be skillful drivers, especially on higher difficulties. Due to their low target profile, they are also much harder to kill in a Ghost from head on. Unggoy will attempt to ram enemies and will keep their distance from advancing foes. Unggoy Heavies may also work in teams on higher difficulties, in which case one rams a foe and another shoots the foe out of what they are driving. Usually, if they are not piloting a Ghost, they are manning plasma turrets or carrying a fuel rod gun. Like [[Special Operations Unggoy|Special Operations]] and [[Unggoy Ultra]]s, they are some of the most dangerous and tactical Unggoy. When not manning a vehicle or turret or carrying a fuel rod gun, Unggoy Heavies will usually use [[Type-25 plasma pistol]]s, but on higher difficulties they may use [[Type-33 Needler]]s.
