Here's a video that shows how to be able to drive the Anti-Air Wraith (something I think a lot of you have been dying to to) I take no credit for making this video. Anyways, have fun with this.

Also, it's probably easier on Co-op on harder difficulties because you can use the Beam Rifle that the Arbiter starts with to take out the gunner.

But it still seemed that it was Bungie's intention to allow you to drive it?

They probably didn't want you to use it...Gah I don't know.

Meh. So it's a different wraith with a better gun.

Make sure you press the Right Bumper just after he dies.

That's the point. Also, it's something not usually usable in the game, so it makes people want to use it even more, well at least it does for most people.

They didn't put it in multiplayer because it's overpowered.

I hope they put it in a map in the upcoming DLC.

It would be awesome to see it in a map where one teams base is ABOVE the other teams, and the high base has two Hornets, two Banshees, and a Chopper, while the low base has an AA Wraith, a Warthog, and two well-placed turrets. There would also be man-cannon infantry access, and one easily-defensible vehicle path leading to the high base. It would be sick.

It'd be like Boarding action but with fucking mancannons back and forth between the two. Fucking :awesome:

Ooh very cool, I didn't know they upgraded the Wraith for Halo 3 (I never used the Wraiths in Halo 2 except for in the very last level).

Does this anti-air Wraith have a speed boost like before?

It looks like in the video, you can't board it the conventional way (holding the action button) so Bungie probably intended for us to go through the game without using it, but made the tank usable as a nice surprise.

Um... it's a completely different wraith than the regular one which is normally useable, and the video clearly shows it can boost

Kinda. Imagine one base suspended over the other. And yes, the mancannons and air vs. ground combat would be amazing.

you'd think they'd have made it like the halo 1 wraiths, that were only compatible with an elite biped.

That's why I think it was something that was done on purpose as an easter egg.

Or maybe because they didn't think anyone would get past the instasplosion.

First time I tried I melee'd the guy twice. Now I see in the video that he melee'd once, an then shot him in the head, which won't stop use of RB, as melee does.

EDIT: You have to melee him once, then hold RB while shooting him in the head. You'll end up with one less bullet in your BR, instead of a whole three round burst being gone.
