m
Use a comma before ‘but’ if it connects two independent clauses (unless they are closely connected and short). The usual preposition to use with “corner” is “in”, not “on”. Did you mean “in the lower left corner”?

* Destroying two vehicles with a single shot from the Target Locator in the [[ONI: Sword Base|third Campaign mission]] unlocks the Achievement "[[Two Corpses in One Grave]]."

* The Target Locator was available only in [[Firefight]] and [[Campaign]] in ''Halo: Reach''. It does not appear in [[Matchmaking]] or [[Forge]], presumably for balancing reasons. The Target Locator was however added to the ''Halo: The Master Chief Collection'' version of [[Forge/Halo: Reach|''Halo: Reach'' Forge]] when ''Halo 3'' was added to PC. On a given map, the locator has four useable artillery strikes no matter what ammunition count is set in the weapon's properties, and is shared regardless of if the weapon is deleted then re-placed. Only one target locator can be spawned. | * The Target Locator was available only in [[Firefight]] and [[Campaign]] in ''Halo: Reach''.
