*In "[[Two Betrayals (Level)|Two Betrayals]]" the moment you begin switch to the Plasma Pistol and dodge behind the glass, charge up the Plasma Pistol and aim slightly ahead of where the Sentinel is heading, if timed just right you will take down all of them and still have enough ammo left to tackle the Elites in the [[Control Room]]'s hallway. | *In "[[Two Betrayals (Level)|Two Betrayals]]" the moment you begin switch to the Plasma Pistol and dodge behind the glass, charge up the Plasma Pistol and aim slightly ahead of where the Sentinel is heading, if timed just right you will take down all of them and still have enough ammo left to tackle the Elites in the [[Control Room]]'s hallway. | ||
*In ''Halo: Combat Evolved,'' the Plasma Pistol's semi-auto mode is as powerful as the [[Plasma Rifle]] and [[MA5B|Assault Rifle]] when used against shields. However it does slightly less damage against flesh. Because it also has the overcharge feature, it's a good idea to drop those two weapons for the PP in most cases. This is, however, not an advisable tip in ''[[Halo 3]] ''because of the increased power of the latter two weapons, and the drain on a Plasma Pistol's battery when overcharged. | *In ''Halo: Combat Evolved,'' the Plasma Pistol's semi-auto mode is as powerful as the [[Plasma Rifle]] and [[MA5B|Assault Rifle]] when used against shields.

*Throughout ''Halo: Combat Evolved,'' the Plasma Pistol makes a fine choice in Heroic and Legendary. In a cooperative run in any legendary level, two players yielding them can take down even the most deadliest groups if used properly. The overcharge can one-shot an shield of an elite, allowing you to use another weapon to finish him off. They are also somewhat effective against combat forms as well. Since they are very common, they make a good choice combined with a headshot capable weapon such as the pistol or sniper to not only save ammo, but eliminate enemies fast. | |||
