The Guardians

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

Summary

In both Halo 1 and Halo 2, when a player in multiplayer is killed inexplicably (i.e. by a physics glitch, by the environment, or by an AI in Halo: Custom Edition), the message reads "_player_ was killed by The Guardians". There are also ways to do this among players (guardian glitch). For example, aim at a teammate's head with a Battle Rifle (or a Pistol or Carbine), right trigger and Y simultaneously until he dies. Another way is when a player is killed by a melee attack from another player who died just as they did the melee attack. Also being killed in & out of maps by unmanned vehicles has been known to cause this and has resulted in an unexplainable maniacal laugh being heard on occasion. Another more simpler way to see the message is in the level Terminal. If you stand in front of the Train and let it crash into you the sign will pop up at the corner of the screen. Also on the level Zanzibar if you can manage to stand on the windmill blades all the way to the top (and easy way to do this is to constantly walk backwards as the windmill blades ascend), you will be caught between the windmill blade and a pocket at the top of the inside of the windmill and you will be killed. You can do this with a Warthog as well, but no one must be in the Warthog, ways to do this, is to drive a Warthog at top speed and get out before hitting someone.

There is also a third way, doable in Halo 2. Dual wield Plasma Pistols and have any weapon on backup. Charge both plasma pistols, and a split second after you release the charge, press B. If done correctly, the second pistol will disappear instead of drop, and you will still be holding the two pistols on everybody else's screen. Pull out your secondary weapon, crouch(to prevent shooting at yourself, sometimes you do that), and open fire on a player. The bullets will seemingly come out of nowhere, and when you kill the other player, it will say "Killed by the Guardians" on their screen.

Finnaly, there is a fourth way. Sometimes when doing the superjump on Zanzibar by the windwheel, you will fall through the ground into a ocean underneath the map Zanzibar and once you hit the water, you die and the message says "Killed By The Guardians." This was after the auto-update so Bungie presumbaly made it that no one can cheat in matchmaking. But its actually rare that this event happens.

Notes

  • If you do the first method right, it should show the weapon firing, come down, then immediately fire again without seeing the secondary weapon.
  • Friendly fire must be off to do the first guardian glitch on your teammate. Shields off will produce optimal results, but it is possible to guardian glitch with full shields by doing the glitch repeatedly.
  • Doing the first method while moving will result in you dying instead of your teammate.
  • The third guardian glitch is only doable on Xbox Live, and you cannot be host.
  • If you reload your secondary weapon while performing the third method, you will need to redo the glitch. Press B to get out of it, pick up the second pistol, and repeat the glitch.

They are the mysterious entity that controls and is everything of the Halo multiplayer universe.It's possible that it is evil due to the fact that we are given no choice but to fight and embrace the war which they or it uses for entertainment.Spartans an Elites are only selected because they are the only ones who could be considered worthy soldiers and fighters.I wanted make a machinima about that.--0nyx Sp1k3r 15:50, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
