As with all Elites, the most efficient means of killing them is with the [[Noob Combo]]. Simply overcharge a [[Type-25 Directed Energy Pistol|Plasma Pistol]] and then fire a [[BR55 Battle Rifle|Battle Rifle]] or Covenant carbine and land a headshot on them. For closer ranges, use the battle rifle (more damage dealt); for further ranges, use the carbine to avoid the spread effect. [[Type-25 Grenade Launcher|Brute Shots]] also work to some extent, but, on [[Legendary]], are ultimately overpowered by the incredible rate of power and damage dealt of the plasma rifle. Specifically, for the instance at the end of the level {{Levelname|Delta Halo}} in the cramped space, the easiest means of killing them is the energy sword, as the Elites can easily hide behind all the cover. Be wary though, as some of them have swords of their own.
