H4 - Wheelman.png

Wheelman is a Halo 3, Halo Reach and Halo 4 multiplayer, Firefight and Spartan Ops medal awarded when the player, as the driver of a vehicle, has one of their passengers kill an opponent. In the first two games it is represented by a gold star with a tire on it. Writing on the tire reads 'ROAD KILL TIRES'. In Halo 4 it is represented by a white skull with a steering wheel on the forehead atop a blue circle and grey pentagon.

Usually, it is accompanied by the message, "Your driving assisted <player>."

Strategies

The medal can be achieved easily with any map that has a Warthog, especially in a Big Team Battle match.

Keep moving. If you stop a Warthog, Mongoose, Prowler, etc. it is a sitting duck, and can be easily stuck or hijacked.

When playing a slayer game only have a driver and a gunner. Having a passenger most likely will give the other team a Triple Kill. Only have a passenger if it is an Assault or Capture the Flag game.

Trivia

  • The original design of the medal is very similar to the Wheelman Spree medals. This design was originally used to represent the Halo 2 Roadkill medal.
