In some people's opinions, the plasma pistol dual wielded with pretty much anything is a "newb combo" (I do not share that opinion). [[User:ElFroCampeador|ElFroCampeador]] 03:25, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

:Exactly. If you toss a frag to down someone's shields and then headshot them, does that make it a noob combo?

Cmon, guys, things such as "Am I a noob if I use the noob combo" "Yes if you use it in Multiplayer"

Secondly, what really shocks me is the amount of possible ways to use the so called "Noob Combo", so I'm a Noob for using any of the listed weapons to kill other players? The Mauler, Mauler & Spiker, Magnum & Plasma Pistol, Plasma Rifle & Plasma Pistol, Battle Rifle & Plasma Pistol, and more which I won't waste time listing. Its devaluing almost half the Halo arsenal, now that's absurd. Whether you agree or not, by stating these methods of death have noob like qualities, you are insulting a vast majority of Halo players. So I'm sorry to say it, but my opinion of Halopedia has fell. I think we ought to clean up this mess, or at least get a vote on how everyone feels about it. I know there are other users here on Halopedia who would appreciate a title / content change to something much more sporting. Thanks for reading! -[[User:TheLostJedi|'''<span style="color:maroon">TheLostJedi</span>''']] 14:15, 15 February 2009 (GMT)

: One thing I find is odd is how using any combination of a plasma based weapon and a projectile weapon which may not even necessarily be duel-wielded counts as a Nooc combo. I mean looking at the page it seems that unless you use all human weapons or all covenant weapons (not true even then) that no matter what various combo you use you are eternally damn to be a noob. I have my own theory. It's called the noob combo because when ever anyone uses such a combination the true noobs start complaining.--[[User talk:Zervziel|Zervziel]] 16:14, May 26, 2010 (UTC)
 
 
: I agree the So called "newb combo" I find deragatory and ofenssive as a user of this strategy. I beleive that this article should be renamed EMP Combo.  Accussations that this requires low skill are false this LEGITIMATE STRATEGY  takes niot only skill but timing and accuraccy to hit a moving opponet.  Any weapon or strategy except a MA5,BR,or single weilded magnum, body shots only, is considered "Newbish" ( I refuse to use the more derogatory noob). Players only call these things newbish when they them selves aren't smart enough to recognize weapons for their potential. Some one should really contact the administrators. I would but I do not no how.[[User talk:Sierra259|Sierra259]] 21:26, 3 September 2011 (EDT)

It is called the "Noob Combo" or the "Newb Combo" by the people who get killed by it, so can someone tell me why people get mad when it is used ? [[User talk:Grave G O D|Grave G O D]] 00:45, April 1, 2010 (UTC)

:Your answer is right there: They're mad they got killed in such an expedient fashion and so it must be noobish if it killed them. Apparently using your brain to take advantage of the weapons capabilities is considered cheap/cheating. --[[User talk:Zervziel|For the Swarm!]] 22:10, August 14, 2010 (UTC)
==Unanimous Opinion==
I think this page should be moved from "Noob Combo" to "EMP Combo", whilst any combinations of killing that do not involve the Plasma Pistol should be removed. Why? Just look above. "The Noob Combo" title is a derrogatory term for something officially recognised by Bungie as the "EMP Combo" or an "EMP Kill". The original title could and probably should remain in the article, referencing the criticism and ridicule of using the Plasma Pistol by several gamers caused by its lethal efficiency in Halo 2. But as I said, these other weapon combinations have to go, as its just plain ridiculous refering to so many methods of killing players as a "Noob Combo". I can only imagine that this article will detereorate further with Armour Abilities being listed as combinations in various ways, if we do not change it now. Soon I think I may change it myself if I can find the time, to improve this article, as is needed. -[[User:TheLostJedi|'''<span style="color:maroon">TheLostJedi</span>''']] 01:47, July 2, 2010 (UTC)
== Weapon combinations section should be removed ==
The "Noob Combo" refers to the use of the Plasma Pistol overcharge followed by a headshot from a non-sniper headshot-capable weapon. This section has NOTHING to do with this sort of thing and lists pretty much every possible way to kill someone. Example: the Mauler followed by a melee? Or simply dual Plasma Rifles? These have nothing to do with the Noob Combo.
