Fear the Pink Mist is a Halo 3 Achievement represented by a red circle with a Needler and five hearts surrounding the weapon. It is awarded for killing five enemies with a Needler, in a ranked, or free-for-all match or Campaign, making it one of the easiest achievements to get. The name of the achievement is a reference to the large pink explosion that occurs when Needler projectiles detonate on a target as well as the pink ray of Needler projectiles. It awards the player with five Gamerpoints.

  • Another good area to get this achievement is the Drone attack on Template:Levelname. If you kill one of the Drones holding a Needler, you can quite easily shower the remaining Drones with the projectiles.
