Summary

In Halo: Combat Evolved you were able to neutralize Flood forms and make them harmless. Called Flood 'Pets' or 'Buddies' these zombies would still try and follow you around and could then be used as sheilds, taking enemy fire while you crouch and shoot between their legs.

Walk Through

This can be done on any level with the Flood. It works particularly well with the Assault Rifle and Pistol. When you spot a Flood, shoot off its tentacled arm. On higher difficulties, you may also want to shoot off the elite infected flood's head, as this may be used as a weapon from time to time. If they are carrying a weapon, shoot off their right arm as well. Only the left arm must be amputated, and on Human infected flood, the head poses no threat. The arm in which they hold a weapon is only dangerous if they have a gun. After taking off the left arm, and sometimes the head, the Flood are incapable of hurting you.

Halo 2

Unfortunately in Halo 2 the game designers changed the Flood attributes. so that once you shoot the arms off a Combat Form it will shortly pop into an Infection Form.
