Agreed lol. I think it was mine because I remember going to grab a FRG for a Marine and almost being splattered by Vince lol. I had a FRG from before the Frigate Landed. And I ended up gearing the Marines up :D

Who are you directing that towards?

  • 09.06.2008 3:51 PM PDT

My mistake, I thought I watched your run but I was thinking of Vince's. I just DL'd it, I'll watch it later, along with Tyrant's run.

I watched you Ark run. And, I have to say. It was amazing, you must have practiced that to hell! It was much faster than any of my runs. Took me 1 hour 15mins to get to the Scarab on my own. Took you 1 hour 14mins to finish it! But I was a bit too careful on that one. I took my time a bit to much.

Hello, Community!

Hopefully if you're reading this, it's because you're interesting in kicking your campaign experience up a notch by cranking up the Legendary with all skulls activated :-) Need advice? A guide? Maybe even a friendly community to cheer you on and help guide you through the process? Then give our Mythic thread a read, and Godspeed on your Mythic journey!

Best Regards,
The Tyrant

Don't feel bad. It took Vince 45 minutes just to reach the Prowlers XD

  • 09.06.2008 5:59 PM PDT

I take things slowly and with caution. I'm more concerned with knowing I've killed everything in my path than how fast I went through. That and at times my shields were down. I had to be cautious.

Ha, thanks. I was a little disappointed though. If you take out the cutscenes and marine stupidity, I was only about 3-4 minutes slower than Pahat. I wouldn't have minded taking one of his records away, lol.

Oh don't worry. I'm not criticizing at all :-) You've seen my walkthroughs. I'm less concerned about speed and more worried about getting it to a point where it's easier to repeat the proccess.

I just got killed by a Power Drain! I reached the area with the AA Wraiths. Had 1 Brute left.

Man I can't do any levels SLASO except Floodgate <_<.
I tried The Storm, Sierra 117 and Crow's nest but seriously, that Catch skull seems to kill me every single time... Does someone have any tips for avoiding grenades? I always die by one when I'm least expecting it <_<.

Also do your shield regenerate when you killed an enemy with a melee attack, or just when you hit one with a melee attack?


Simply hitting one will suffice, whether it be a death blow or not. However, if they manage to retaliate before your shields recharge in fully recharge they won't recharge right away. This is what makes Flood missions such a breeze.

Always remember to step back and try and kill everything from a distance, preferrably with the Brute Chopper.

I found the Sierra 117 BR Glitch!!!
SLASO, haven't completed

I'll finish off my The storm (scarab to end) technique

marine on mongoose either one dropped from the pelican or from before
i go up the crane on the right(When You Face The Huge pit)
The Reason for this, The Marines tend to aim for the back right leg at first and while they shoot at that they hit some brutes and grunts of the scarab
I Have The Scarab Go down once but don't get on it
i go to the other crane and then go on it and hide up on where the secondary gun is
and rocket the brutes on it
go inside of it to make sure that its empty
then one grenade to the core room to flush out any leftover brutes
melee feast
run like hell then give the arbiter a missile pod(With this method they tend to stay operable)

Hunter killer


Make sure arby has missiles still
go up on top of building or hide in corner
and shoot the hunters from behind
also if arby still has the missile pod he can single handedly murder the next area
and by the AA Gun make sure you take out the plasma turret because it will cause arby to drop his missile pod and have no weapon

Journey's End

SLASO finished by completing the 7th mission on the 7th.

I feel fulfilled, I just wish that the Hammer Chieftan had died from BR shots.

Is there anything special in this video...? Um...I killed a Fuel Rod Grunt with a Spiker...from the other side of the room. I ran out of BR ammo and I remembered some guy talking about the extreme range a Spiker can get.

Congrats man! Good to see you finally did it. I'll DL it shortly.

I was just experimenting with SLASO The Storm and I discovered a moderately easy way to kill the Hunters! I was just messing around having fun and I was throwing everything I had at them. Ran out of BR, Spiker and Brute Shot Ammo and I looked down by my feet and saw the only weapon left: A magnum. I said to myself, "What the hell", picked it up, shot it at the Hunters backs. Took only 2 or 3 shots to kill BOTH of them.

I wanted to study this more, so I started from Rally Point Alpha so I could fight the Hunters at full health. I took them both on with just a magnum and it took about 20 or so shots to kill both of them. I'll be uploading the vid on GameVee shortly.

A Magnum...

...who would've thought...

Queen is awesome.

I <3 this thread :)

  • 09.07.2008 4:28 PM PDT

In another run, I also managed to take down all the enemies, even the Chieftain, at the AA Battery at the end in 1 attempt. Turns out that keeping the Plasma Turret attached is a good way to lure unsuspecting enemies into a headshot, lol. Once the Chieftain is the only one left, he's not so bad, you can just BR him to make his helmet fall off then get the easy headshot.

I love having turrets around.

Grunt: Hey look! A turret! Nevermind the five corpses next to it, I'm using it! Awesome, this thing will-*YAAAAAAAAY!!*
