*Use head shots over medium distances with a [[Battle Rifle]], or get in close with an [[SMG]] and take them out with rapid gunfire. The Grunts armor gives little protection to [[UNSC]] ballistic fire, and if hit by a bullet a Grunt Minor may flinch and stumble back, occasionally start to panic. It is then easy to go in quick with a melee attack, or pin them down with continued fire. Minor Grunts are particularly vulnerable to explosives. A single [[grenade]] a few feet away from the [[Grunt]] will kill it, though if they are too far, but still get hit, they will stumble around with their arms over their head for a short period of time, before running away at top speed. It has also been noted that when a large group of Minor Grunts form, a [[Rocket Launcher]] is one of the most effective weapons, and would most likely kill all of them, due to their low resistance to weaponry in general. Also, [[Sniper Rifle]] rounds can kill a few Grunts at once, if used correctly and at the right angle. Basically, the only weapon that might have a hard time killing Minor Grunts would have to be the [[Plasma Pistol]] from [[Halo 2]], but even then, it can kill them quickly if you know how to use one. If you are low on ammo don't waste it on Grunts and just bash them with your weapon. | *Use head shots over medium distances with a [[Battle Rifle]], or get in close with an [[SMG]] and take them out with rapid gunfire.

*Minor Grunts are usually led by a [[Minor Domo]] or a [[Grunt Major]]. They will usually run in fear and attempt to find cover if their leader(s) have died, though they will often regain composure and attempt to shoot after ten to fifteen seconds or if they are cornered in a corner. | *Minor Grunts are usually led by a [[Minor Domo]] or a [[Grunt Major]].
