ive read alot of nonsense about kids beating this game in a matter of hours in legendary mode, if u r one one those kids that posted under that thread go to hell. im not a great halo player but i think im a good stratagest against any a.i. . (suck at multiplayer) for all u kids that sasy u beat this quick in lengendary , u are clearly liers , and if not god damn it i need help, im f #@$ing on the first freaking board , how the f do u pass the part where the covenant are boarding with all those f n elite? answer that u basterds, and dont tell me grenades and better aiming. (im sure im gonna get a bunch of wise cracks about my posting, but im seriously considering breaking this game in half and then buyn a new one and stiking to multiplayer)

i've made it through the first 6 levels, and I have stopped to recuperate, they beat me down. On Nov 9th 12:29am I started on legendary, at 4:00am I went to bed, still at the second boarding party on the first level. The next day I started in on heroic and beat it by the end of the week. I still can't believe how hard legendary really is.

I finally got past that part by bum rushing the first group and then hucking grenades into the boarding tube and dueling wielding green pistol and magnum

another thought... don't kill the grunts, concentrate on elites, if you kill enough guys more come out of the tubes if you only kill grunts you're gonna end up with a but ton of elites and then you are in trouble.

Plasma pistol/Battle Rifle. Take down the elites shields, then headshot with the BR. Plamsa grenades work well if you catch them off guard. The more you play, the better you get at it. If you don't believe people can beat this game quick, watch some videos over at Halo.bungie.org. The first level can be beaten in 10 minutes.

PP and BR is the only way to go in that room. Save grenades for the last few guys, who are tougher to bring down. And use cover, for God's sake! Killing the baddies is tough, but avoiding death at a higher elevation with all those boxes is easy as pie. Just be patient, and don't dart out for the last shot when your shields are low, or it really will be your last.

You have to be extreemly resoursefull when playing Halo 2 on Legendary. You don't get as much ammo, the Covenant don't seem to ever die, and something like 5 plasma shots takes down your shields and one more kills you. In short don't feel bad about it taking forever. You should definately beat it on Normal or at least Heroic first to get a feel for the game and see how the weapons all work and what works well together, if you haven't allready.

I used any weapon i could find in that room. I tried to blow them up with grenades as much as possible but they don't seem to do as much dammage as they used to. I think i used mostly the Plasma pistol and the Battle Riffle for head shots. Dual Needlers are good when you can get them too. Dual Plasma Rifles are good if there is nothing better, but the best is probably the Plasma Pistol and someother human weapon depending on the range. Its always good to keep your distance when possible. Even when you have the shotgun (you won't at that point) its not the unstopable moster it once was so it you shouldn't rely on it too much. Back to the room in question though. I was always rotating possitions in that room. I started by the boxes by the enterance, then i went up stairs till I would run low on ammo and have to jump the railing and get back to the lower floor quickly and trying to minimize the time i didn't have cover. Occasionally i'd have to sneak up closer than i wanted where the Covenant pour into the room to get more ammo or a fresh plama pistol.

Just keep at it, because if you don't have the patience to do that part, then you will go insane when you have them damn Jackals with sniper rifles.
p.s. I beat Halo 2 on normal and heroic, right now i'm in the room where you kill the Prophet of Regret.

thanks probaly the best advice yet , seems like everyone sayn the same thing about the plasma pistal and b.r. , just wanna make it clear that iv beatn the game except for legendary, and my point is that i dont believe that beating it in legendary will take longer than 1 day at least the first time around , oh and whoever said not to kill the grunts that sounds like a good idea ill have to try it out when i get out of work. thanks
