The '''Overkill Medal''' is awarded for killing 4 opponents within 4 seconds of each other.
 
==Summary==
It is available in all [[Multiplayer]] gametypes and has a [[Bungie]] difficulty rating of 7 (out of 10). It is represented by a bronze circle with 4 green stars. When someone gets this medal the announcer will shout "Overkill!" to the player that received this medal. In [[Halo 2]], this medal was called [[Killtacular]].
 
"Overkill" is also an [[Achievement]] for Halo 3. An easy way to get this achievement is to play "Swords" on a small map like [[Snowbound]] or [[Epitaph]].
 
You can also get this Achievement by camping with a [[Rocket Launcher]] and a few frag grenades in a small map such as [[Epitaph]] on a game variant such as Crazy King, Although it is possible to get it on [[Narrows]] as well.
 
An extremely easy way to get this medal is during the popular [[Assault]] variant Grifball, where players have [[Gravity Hammers]], [[Energy Swords]], and no shields. Thus, kills are very easy to get, especially if the player [[camping|spawn kills]].
 
Another easy, but highly unlikely, way to get "Overkill" is to play on a map and when the whole enemy team respawns but the game stops and you're right there, when the game restarts you can easily kill the team. Also, on Team SWAT it is easy to get if the whole enemy team is in one area and you kill them all with headshots within four seconds of each other. An easy way to get this medal is to destroy a full [[Warthog]] with a [[Rocket Launcher]], and kill another enemy immediately afterward.
 
Getting this medal in a [[Lone Wolves]] will earn you the [[Armor Permutations#Sangheili Armor Permutations|Commando Helmet]] and [[Armor Permutations#Sangheili Armor Permutations|Ascetic Shoulders]] for the Elite character, as well as unlock the [[Overkill (Achievement)|Overkill Achievement]] worth 5 [[Gamerscore]].
