Fall damage reduction: Difference between revisions

In any ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' [[Campaign]] level, it is possible to survive fall damage when jumping from great heights. A player must simply jump from a high ledge or cliff and land on a steep, slanted surface—one that they would not be able to stand on normally. There is no friction on such surfaces, which is why players can survive such landings. The trick works best when landing on a steep, slanted rock, or on a [[Type-26 Wraith|Wraith]]. However, the trick has its limits; when performed from too high, the player will automatically die, and it will not work.

In the ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' level [[Two Betrayals]], the trick can be used as a shortcut; when going to retrieve the [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshee]] at the beginning of the level, players can slide down the slanted portions of the walls of the control room and effectively skip the walk down.
