The player can leave the ordinary map boundaries by performing a ''Sword Fly'' trick or ''Sword Cancel''. Also a form of Sword flying is ''Butterflying'' and is done by standing below a partner and sword cancel continuously while the partner continuously jumps. The player will charge at but not slash the other player, allowing the sword user to fly over the other person and get over a boundary. Players could also use the "sword fly trick" to get past the boundaries in older versions, although this glitch has been removed from the game by an update from the game publisher, [[Bungie]]. | The player can leave the ordinary map boundaries by performing a '''Sword Fly''' trick or '''Sword Cancel'''.

*One variation of this is to have no ammo in your Rocket Launcher and tap Y and in the middle of switching from Rockets to Sword hit R, you should "fly" to wherever your cross hair is pointed, moreover wherever you want to go. | *One variation of this is to have no ammo in your Rocket Launcher and tap Y and in the middle of switching from Rockets to Sword hit R, you should "fly" to wherever your cross hair is pointed, moreover wherever you want to go. | ||
*The other form, sometimes called rocket jumping or sword flying, is when you have both a [[Rocket Launcher]] and a sword, in either hand. First switch to the Rocket Launcher, then aim at a target so the cross hair turns red. Then quickly press X + Y + Right Trigger repeatedly until you "fly" at the target. This is useful for getting to otherwise unreachable places high on maps, like [[Zanzibar]] and [[Headlong]] | *The other form, sometimes called rocket jumping or sword flying, is when you have both a [[Rocket Launcher]] and a sword, in either hand.

Another notable glitch involves the | Another notable glitch involves the [[Rocket Launcher]], an [[Overshield]], and a [[Battle Rifle]]. This is done on the new map [[Relic]]. First of all, move one of the two tall blast shields found near the crashed transport vehicle, to beside the main structure. This is most easily done with a warthog. It is easiest if the shield faces away from the structure, and is about 20 feet away. Stand on the T-brace that supports the shield against the ground and shoot the top of the shield with the Rocket Launcher. This will kill you if you do not have an Overshield. Theoretically, a teammate could shoot the shield if Friendly Fire was off. If done correctly, you will be launched very high into the air, and you can land on top of the structure if your aim is good. | ||
''Note'': You must be connection host to do this glitch. It is recommended that you bring a sniper rifle or the Oddball up with you, as you are essentially invincible. (This can also be performed using an upturned [[Banshee]].) | |||

Sit in the passenger seat of the [[Warthog]] while wielding the sword. Aim at a flying enemy ([[Phantom]], [[Banshee]]) until the reticule turns red, and then attempt a lunge. When you exit the Warthog, you should fly towards the enemy even though it looks as though you are running in mid air. However, it depends which direction you are looking in. If you look up, you will fly upwards. Also, the further away your enemy goes, the higher up you go. Another thing to do is to target the enemy, and have them enter a banshee. When they fly up, and you get out of the Warthog, you will still go after them. | Sit in the passenger seat of the [[Warthog]] while wielding the sword.
