In Response To: Re: Hunters don't make much sense. (scarab)

: Everybody wonders why one shot from the pistol can kill them. You would think
: that if some worms died then the others would just carry on.

: Maybe it has something to do with their communal mind, with the idea that
: they are 'really' one organism. Damage part and the whole is killed.

: But I don't know what the mechanism is.

: Do they die of shock? From the pain?

: Are some worms specialized and therefore more important than others? Or does
: the whole die if you kill a certain percentage of its constituents?

: I doubt that even the folks at Bungie have thought of an answer. If you can
: come up with something convincing then it may become 'the truth'.

just remember that pistol ammo from halo 1 is explosive, meaning it bursts on contact. also, there was a thread on what the orange spot was and why it wasn't covered. the best theory was that the orange spots were areas used to take in oxygen, and so they were exposed. most living things need oxygen(or like the grunts, methane) so the worm colony would probably need a breathing hole not smothered by the armor.
