*Using the '[[Noob Combo]]' (A [[Plasma Pistol]] and a [[Pistol]]) can take down Yanme'e Majors easily. It is recommended that you kill them first, then use an [[SMG]] to kill the rest of the pack.

*Supercombining [[Needler]] rounds on Yanme'e Majors is an effective tactic and you can also strip them of ammo after you kill them -- they often carry [[Needlers]].

*Yanme'e Majors (as well as most Yanme'e) seem to have an uncanny ability to fly towards and attack when the player's [[Stamina]] is low, thereby heightening the chance for a kill and most likely stripping away some precious, much-needed [[Health]]. If this happens, use an [[SMG]] to gun them down.

*On [[Legendary]] difficulty in [[Firefight]], the Yanme'e Majors can easily strip a player's armor with a few [[Brute Plasma Rifle]] shots. They also have high accuracy when flying and moving. [[Brute Plasma Rifle]] wielding Yanme'e should be killed at range with pistols.

*In a swarm, Yanme'e can be overwhelming and it is advised to use a [[Brute Plasma Rifle]], [[SMG]] or [[Spiker]] against these enemies. These weapons have a high rate of fire and deliver staggering amounts of damage to unshielded organic targets.

*Making use of one of the mounted turrets littered about is another way to deal with these foes; however, it can be a double-edged sword as carrying the turret reduces the player's movement speed and maneuverability.
