Was playing on Legendary this past weekend and found some things I had never found before on Regret! You will need Sputnik. It is more challenging to play the second one without Envy.
1-A sniper rifle and rounds......In the middle part of the level, the end of the segment just before you run into all of the Honor Guards you have to wipe out two waves of Buggers (god I hate those!). After you do, but before you go down the ramp, grenade jump up to the back part of the ramp top. Go to your left (if you are facing the mountain, right if you are facing the building) and hidden in the trees and shrubs is a dead marine with full pack o sniper goodies.
2-The part after you kill the Honor Guards cinematic is lethal on Legendary because of all the jackal snipers. Sure even after 100 play throughs I still die cause I miss one. If you like to snipe and hide, you can get to the top of the structure you are in. Make sure you have the sniper rifle as one of your weapons, fully loaded (hence the value of find #1), clear the post cinematic Covenant then do the following. You need to get a taller "lamp stand" up the ramp with the hologram, take it to the left side and either stand it up next to the middle pillar or get it on top of the rubble pile and laying down. Once you have gotten this set up, go get the Beam Rifle from the hallway, and get the checkpoint, if you do not and you die, you will have to repeat the setup, which can be a pain in the arse. Once you have the checkpoint, go back to your lamp stand jumping platform setup. From it, you can jump to the top of the pillar, turn back towards the exit and there is a second pillar. Jump to it, then jump again to the roof of the entry you came into the room by. Stand next to the wall and drop a grenade in front of you (make sure you have 4). When you get launched crouch AND move RIGHT against the wall. When you go up high enough you will go through the top of the cover and the move right will land you onto the lower part of the top of the building. From here you do not need any more grenades as you can just crouch jump the 2 levels of the roof (they are just handy if you miss the jump, then you do not have to go collect more). You can now use the top of the building to clear out the jackal strongholds on the other platforms at you leisure. DO NOT SHOOT MORE THAN ONCE FROM THE SAME SPOT, or you will die and have to repeat the same thing every time. After any shot (hit or miss) drop and cover and move to the other side of the roof, cause once they see that one shot, they are locked in on you and you are toast. It involves alot of creeping, but you get to pound away with both the Beam Rifle and the Sniper Rifle, and with Jackal snipers that just makes me smile! It also means you get to play the game a different way! Well, if you have not already found the spots that is.
