After the player defeats three waves of Covenant infantry, Merg Vol appears armed with [[Type-1 Antipersonnel grenade|plasma grenades]] and a [[Type-25 Directed Energy Pistol|plasma pistol]], which he fires overcharged at the player. After the player lowers one of Vol's shields he retreats to one of four pads to recharge, distracting the player with holographic decoys on the other three pads.

When the player removes Vol's shields a second time, he will recharge yet again. This time he re-emerges with a [[Z-90 Photonic Coalescence Emitter/Aegis|Hardlight shield]], which the player must find a way around. At this point, he is particularly vulnerable to plasma grenades. Once the player removes his shields one last time, Merg Vol will convulse and collapse, at which point the player will be prompted to execute him with Palmer's magnum sidearm.<ref name="battle"/> | When the player removes Vol's shields a second time, he will recharge yet again.
