Pump Yer Brakes is a Halo 4 achievement added with the Crimson Map Pack. It was unlocked when the player destroyed an enemy-controlled Mantis.[1]

Following the shutdown of Xbox 360 Halo online services on January 13, 2022, this achievement is no longer attainable.[2][3]

Tips[edit]

Popular methods for destroying Mantises included hitting them with an EMP from a Plasma pistol then boarding them (which would also award the David and Goliath achievement) and destroying them with a grenade or repeated melees. Heavy weapons were also effective, particularly the Incineration cannon, which can destroy a Mantis with a single direct hit.
