'''Triple Wielding''' is a [[glitch]] interrupting with [[Halo 2]] and [[Halo 3]]'s [[Dual Wielding]] system. As the name says, you wield three dual wieldable weapons at the same time. Though you don't shoot with them all, you do get 50% extra ammo, which can come very handy on big maps or on campaign maps with [[Flood]] or [[Hunters]].
 
 
===Method 1 - Exploit===
  +
This method is an exploit that allows players to triple-wield two different weapons—that is, two weapons of the same type, and an additional weapon of a different type.
   
  +
#Find a weapon (''Weapon A'') you wish to triple wield, and pick it up. Now press '''Y''' to switch weapons, and find a different (dual-wieldable) weapon (''Weapon B''). Pick it up.
==How To Perform A Triple Wielding==
 
  +
#*You should now only have two weapons (''Weapon A'' and ''Weapon B''), and you should not be dual-wielding them. Furthermore, you should currently be holding ''Weapon B''.
#Figure out which weapon you wish to triple wield(must be dual wieldable). This will be called weapon A. You will need another dual wieldable weapon, that is different from weapon A. This is weapon B.
 
 
#Find another ''Weapon A'', and dual-wield it with ''Weapon B''. You should now have ''Weapon A'' as a secondary weapon, and ''Weapon''s ''A'' and ''B'' as primary weapons, dual wielded.
#To triple wield a weapon, first get two weapons(A and B). Pick up the first(weapon A), then press Y to switch weapons. The other weapon must be dual wieldable, but different from the one that will be triple wielded(weapon B).
 
 
#Now, trade ''Weapon B'' for another ''Weapon A''.
#Find another weapon A, and dual wield it, by holding Y, with weapon B. You should now have weapon A as a secondary weapon, and weapons A and B as primary weapons, dual wielded.
 
#Now, trade weapon B for another weapon A, by using X.
 
#You have successfully triple wielded.
 
   
''Note'': With this method you can only have dual weapons plus one in reserve this is useful with the needler in halo 2 for you have 1.5 times more ammo.
+
You have now triple-wielded. Note that with this method, you can only have dual weapons plus one in reserve.
   
==Method 2==
+
===Method 2 - Glitch===
  +
This is easiest to do on the level Halo on Normal. Start up a Co-op game, then get Player A to pick up an SMG. Then, without using it, kill Player B, then get Player A to pick up the Plasma Rifle and dual wield it. Walk to the Mythic skull and drop the Plasma Rifle on the skull. Then dual wield and pick up the skull at the same time. Press Y to see if you have 3 weapons.
There is also a second method. However, this method gives you three weapons to cycle through, instead of just extra ammo. To do it...
 
#Make sure you have at least one dual-wieldable weapon. For this example, let's say we have a [[Needler]] and a
 
[[Battle Rifle]].
 
#Stand over another dual-wieldable weapon, such as a [[Plasma Pistol]].
 
#With the needler out, throw a grenade and while your arm is in the action, hold Y.
 
#If you aren't host, it should say Picked up a Plasma Pistol, but you won't have actually picked it up (if you are host, you can't do it). As soon as you see that, tap Y repeatedly.
 
# You will now be able to cycle through Needler, Plasma Pistol and Battle Rifle. To the host, you will just look as if you were dual-wielding a needler and plasma pistol.
 
   
  +
*You don't have to get rid of the rocket launcher/Spartan Laser.
On YouTube, there is a video guide that might be more helpful than what's on this page, it can be found here: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7f_Vos1unU]
 
   
  +
*You can't see your 3rd weapon until you switch to it.
==Method 3==
 
There is also a third method in which gives you three weapons and can be used anywhere by any [[covenant]] dual wielding weapon.
 
#Have two similar weapons dual wielded, and look straight down.
 
#Melee the ground and then quickly pick up the weapon, the corner of your screen should say you picked up the weapon, do this three times or until the screen says you have picked up the weapon three times. You're done.
 
   
  +
*Do not swap your weapon or you will lose your glitched weapon!
With [[Plasma Rifles]] and [[Needlers]] the rate of fire should increase while the rate of overheating decreases.
 
  +
  +
===Method 3 - Glitch===
 
There is also a third method is a in which you can possess three weapons, and can be used with any dual-wieldable [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] weapon.
 
#Have two similar weapons dual wielded, and look straight down.
 
#Melee the ground and then quickly pick up the weapon, the corner of your screen should say you picked up the weapon, do this three times or until the screen says you have picked up the weapon three times.
  +
#Use your newly acquired three weapons.
   
 
With [[Type-25 Directed Energy Rifle|Plasma Rifles]] and [[Type-33 Guided Munitions Launcher|Needlers]] the rate of fire should increase while the rate of overheating decreases.
==Holding One Weapon Other Than The Assault Rifle==
 
''Note'': This can only be preformed with Plasma weapons.
 
#Perform the steps listed in the first method with a plasma based weapon.
 
#Melee to drop the weapon in your left hand.
 
#Fire until you can pick up the weapon you dropped as your main weapon and pick it up.
 
#You should have dropped your reserve weapon and you shall be holding one weapon.

Triple Wielding or acquiring 3 weapons is a glitch present in Halo 2 and Halo 3 's dual Wielding systems. The glitch allows players to use three dual-wieldable weapons at the same time; though the player cannot shoot with them all, they do get 50% more ammo, which can come very handy on big maps or on campaign maps with Flood or Hunters.

Methods

Method 1 - Exploit

This method is an exploit that allows players to triple-wield two different weapons—that is, two weapons of the same type, and an additional weapon of a different type.

  1. Find a weapon (Weapon A) you wish to triple wield, and pick it up. Now press Y to switch weapons, and find a different (dual-wieldable) weapon (Weapon B). Pick it up.
    • You should now only have two weapons (Weapon A and Weapon B), and you should not be dual-wielding them. Furthermore, you should currently be holding Weapon B.
  2. Find another Weapon A, and dual-wield it with Weapon B. You should now have Weapon A as a secondary weapon, and Weapons A and B as primary weapons, dual wielded.
  3. Now, trade Weapon B for another Weapon A.

You have now triple-wielded. Note that with this method, you can only have dual weapons plus one in reserve.

Method 2 - Glitch

This is easiest to do on the level Halo on Normal. Start up a Co-op game, then get Player A to pick up an SMG. Then, without using it, kill Player B, then get Player A to pick up the Plasma Rifle and dual wield it. Walk to the Mythic skull and drop the Plasma Rifle on the skull. Then dual wield and pick up the skull at the same time. Press Y to see if you have 3 weapons.

  • You don't have to get rid of the rocket launcher/Spartan Laser.
  • You can't see your 3rd weapon until you switch to it.
  • Do not swap your weapon or you will lose your glitched weapon!

Method 3 - Glitch

There is also a third method is a in which you can possess three weapons, and can be used with any dual-wieldable Covenant weapon.

  1. Have two similar weapons dual wielded, and look straight down.
  2. Melee the ground and then quickly pick up the weapon, the corner of your screen should say you picked up the weapon, do this three times or until the screen says you have picked up the weapon three times.
  3. Use your newly acquired three weapons.

With Plasma Rifles and Needlers the rate of fire should increase while the rate of overheating decreases.
