A '''Suicide Grunt'''<ref>[[Halo 3: The Official Guide]], page 30</ref>, also known as a "Kamikaze Grunt", is like a "berserk" mode for the Unggoy in ''Halo 3''. Occasionally, an Unggoy will hold two Plasma Grenades in each hand while screaming in rage and charge towards enemy forces. This is usually triggered by their leader being killed (usually in a brutal way such as sticking him with a grenade), and you can sometimes hear them scream, "For the [[Great Journey]]!" or "Witness my beliefs!", "For the Covenant!", "Follow the light my brothers!", "Please enjoy my BRIGHT! BLUE! BALLS!","GIVE ME HUGS DEMON!" or "Help me stick you!" (an obvious reference to the [[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|Pillar of Autumn]]'s crewmen "Help me help you!" quote), "*hums the ''Halo Theme Song''*", rarely "I bet I can stick him!" (reference to Cortana's quote "Bet you can't stick it!" line during the [[Halo 2]] E3 Demo), but most of the other noises consist of unintelligible screams. Most of the intelligible words are of the former of quotes seeming to indicate that they deeply believe and follow the Prophets and the Covenant religion, but some of them are just for humor. Sometimes, some ''berserkers'' may not make a noise at all and stealth creep up on you without you knowing that they are there. This mode can be achieved by any Unggoy, so it is most likely a parallel to the Brute berserk mode; however, Brutes tend to go bloodthirsty, while the Grunts become suicidal, and the Grunts don't do it nearly as often as Brutes do. An odd thing about Kamikaze Grunts is that when you throw a Plasma Grenade it lasts about 2 seconds, when Kamikaze Grunts stick two plasma grenades to their hands they can last over 5 seconds. To see more Kamikaze Grunts more often, activate the skulls [[Famine]] and [[Halo 3 Skulls#Tough Luck|Tough Luck]], as observed with one player's encounter with a whole swarm of them going suicide. A good way to deal with a swarm of these Grunts is to kill one (best with headshot) and by the time next Suicide Grunt comes the fallen grenades will explode, killing that Grunt and the rest of them. | A '''Suicide Grunt'''<ref>[[Halo 3: The Official Guide]], page 30</ref>, also known as a "Kamikaze Grunt", is like a "berserk" mode for the Unggoy in ''Halo 3''.
