Changes: Pummel medal

Revision as of 13:27, 7 May 2010

Template:Ratings

The Bone Cracker (Beat Down in Halo 3 and Halo: Reach) Medal is awarded for hitting and killing an opponent with a melee attack that isn't an actual assassination (melee attack from behind). It is available in all Multiplayer gametypes and has a Bungie difficulty rating of 3 out of 10.

It is represented by an inverted silver star with a dark green fist. After you kill an opponent with a melee attack, a message appears on your screen that says: "You beat down (player's name)". It is also awarded if a Covenant Energy Sword or Gravity Hammer is used to kill an opponent from the front. In Halo: Reach, after killing an opponent with a melee attack, the message "You pummeled (player's name)" will appear.

Tips

An easy way for two players working together to get the medal at the same time is to do the Double Beatdown trick.

Trivia

The "Green Fist" could be a reference to the Incredible Hulk, the Hulk uses his fists in battles and they happen to both be green. It may also depict a MJOLNIR Armor gauntlet.
This is probably one of the easiest medals to acquire in any gametype or playlist.
The best playlist to get Bone Cracker medals is in Grifball because every kill you get is a beat down. Kills can go up to 50+ kills = 50+ beat downs.
