Halo 2 Master Chief Collection Question

Can you not kill Tartarus with the bandana skull active

You 100% can, it’s how I beat my legendary Scarab run.

Would you believe that Scarab skull actually makes H2 legendary harder?

Because I kept shooting tartarus and he just wouldn’t die

You have to wait for Johnson to shoot Tartarus’ overshield away, then pummel him till it regens. The overshield looks kind of like a bluish white super sayian aura. You can’t just pound on Tartarus, you have to time it. Took me years to figure that out lol.
