With its new upgrade,in [[Halo 2]] the Needler (even when dual wielded) is still not all that powerful. But when used in the correct situations, a marksman can utilize them, and make many an exploding pincushion.

For mid-range fights, where the Needler excels, make sure to head your target off, the Needles will seek him out, and more will penetrate your target because you helped the tracking-process. Remember, the Needler is one of the most silent, deadly weapons in the game. You can have your enemy half-dead before he even notices that he is being fired upon. | With its new upgrade, in [[Halo 2]] the Needler (even when dual wielded) is still not all that powerful.

A tactic that can be use with most any weapon. Say your sniping and have been cornered then you switch to shotgun hide then when the enemy comes looking for you you jump out and kill them. This can be used in a situation were you are being followed by another sniping looking to get a "Beat down". It has other uses but is mostly used by noobs. | A tactic that can be use with most any weapon.
