How easy is it to board the Scarrab?

Extremely easy

I ramped to get onto scarrabs! (It looked cool too)

Well,Its just awesome looking.

i steard at it until it blew up, but yeah they are too easy to board

They super easy yah. I enjoy boarding, them.

It makes it look like an action film XD

On The Storm, there's a really easy way. In the lake bed, there's an elevator, and after clearing the AA Wraiths, Choppers, and Ghosts, go to it, and activate it. It will give you a good vintige point for sniping, and later boarding the Scarrab.

Wow,I usually ramp instead

Sounds cool,maybe if I borrow the game again ill try

Try boarding the scarab in differen ways, it makes it more fun. Have you ever used a mongoose to jump off a ramp, bail off in mid air and land on the scarab? Now THAT'S challenging.

Easy, I actually got on the leg of a scarab with a ghost on The Storm once. I fell off of it though D:

Sometimes i use hornets(when available) to go into the air and then see if I can fall on it. It's pretty fun.

Scarabs are not even threats they are so easy to take down and easy to get on to.

Not always. Like in level 7, The Covenant, when you have to fight two at the same time? You're focusing on one, and the other blows you out of the air, or in one unlucky case for me, I got on the first Scarrab, started taking out the enemies on it, and the other Scarrab shot me from where it was and killed me. They have immense power, and a large crew of Brutes and Grunts. If you're having such an easy time boarding them, you must be playing on Easy or Normal.

Yea,it took me about 4-5 times on normal (Kept falling off the cliff XD)

But you need to time everything right.

^ Sorta, or you can just jump blindly off and throw a grenade onto the scarab having precise aim to hit the generator

On the ark distractions from your allies than a well aimed ghost off the ramp.Lucky people can land the ghost on set off the power core and run out with the explosion.

on the storm i carried the skull for the whole level on legendary co-op. i jumped off the crane and landed on a brute, i beat down all the brutes then hit the core etc.

but seriously i did stare it to death once, so what if i just stood there staring at it when my freinds jumped on and blew it up.
