Kill from the Grave



Kill from the Grave is a medal awarded in Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, Halo: Reach and Halo 4 multiplayer, campaign, Firefight and Spartan Ops to a player who kills an opponent after they themselves have died. In Halo 3 and Halo 3: ODST the medal is known as Death from the Grave. As this medal is awarded, a message appears on the screen, saying "You killed (player) from the grave".

In the first three games the medal is represented by a platinum eight-pointed star with a face without a mouth in the center of a silver six-pointed star. In Halo 4 the star is also placed atop a blue circle and grey cross.

The medal most often occurs from a grenade (more commonly Plasma Grenades) or Needler rounds detonating after the player's death, or a slow moving projectile such as a rocket making contact with a foe after the player who shot the rocket is killed. In Halo: Reach it is also possible to earn numerous Kill from the Grave medals with the Target Locator in campaign and Firefight.
