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!

I finished The Storm early enough yesterday that I got started on the Ark. I really need to learn to just let the AI do most of the work. lol.

Review on The Storm

It could just be my general approach to both levels, but I typically finish The Storm a little faster than Tsavo Highway. This instance was no exception. I'll say right out the AI, numerous in nearly every segment, was very useful and did most of the actual fighting while I just lent a helping hand. On the flip side, most of my deaths were the result of friendly frags. They made the segment after the Hunters a bit teeth grinding, so I ended up executing the survivors. Don't shoot the Chief, dammit!

But in the lake beds they were an absolute must, decimating the AA wraiths in only a short couple of minutes without my assistance at all. Guess they figured they were gonna need me for the Scarab ;-)

The ending battle took a surprise turn when the Arbiter whipped out his sword and charged in only to have the Grunts TK their own Covenant teamates by hurling plasmas everywhere. I heard the explosions, peered over the hill, and found only two Grunts, one Brute, and the Chieftian remaining (who was rather stupidly standing on top of a plasma battery). After shooting the battery, the Chieftian was launched off the cliffside. From there it was just combo-ing the remaining Brute, headshotting the last Grunts, and pouring the plasma cannon into the Artillery.

On a side note, the drones that appear between the two lake beds can be avoided completely as long as you don't kill the Chieftian and a few Covenant stragglers in the room right before it.

This was quite possibly the most fun SLASO level yet due to all the AI on AI action :-)

This is sounding less like a quest every day. I mean you've done more than nearly all of Bungie.net is a few days' time. Granted, you're spending a LOT of time on this, it just isn't noticeable at first glance, because you're consistently working.

I hope to see this finished. Good luck.

Hey man, could you turn your team or individul scoring system on? I think t would be fun to be able to see your level score as well and I don't think that having it on otherwise effects the degree of difficulty of the gameplay. Thanks and good luck, DVDA.

Im a FORCE COLONEL DEAL WITH IT

The covenant level is soooo easy on LSASO because your in a hornet half the time, you start with a spartan lazer and the only hard parts are the 2 brute chieftans the rest is a joke you will do fine

I have no idea. Didn't read the update. But according to those who are really into this and Pahis, only two players since the release of the game.

I've done it on claso before i got this account. I was driving. Assuming I still know the hammer jumps, which I think I do, I can beat it in at most 4 tries. The hardest part is keeping you patience while having to walk a long way from the beginning lol. The way I'm doing it may not get many points, so for the meta game achievement I may need to do it again.

It has to be zero deaths, because the Black eye skull starts the level over again if you die.
Its very impressive though. Good Luck with the last two levels. One's cortana, right? That'll be lots of fun....
Woops, youve already done Cortana. My bad. Good luck still.

With iron skull on you have no choice. lol. In a nutshell? Run, run, hide, run run, equipment, hid, run, Arbiter, Marines, hide, run, run... and the occasional shooting ;-)

No but seriously it's not as impossible as some people deem. I believe everyone can do this, and upon completion of the campaign, I will be giving tips on how to do it.

1) Shoot at enemy to get attention
2) Run away and hide
3) Come back to see if Arby killed everyone
3.5) If he hasn't run away again
4) Repeat

QFT. lol. I wish I could save clips from campaign. That last battle on The Storm was hilarious! Read my review. It explains. It's battles like that that make me wonder how the Covenant even made it to Earth XD

That end battle sounds hilarious! Too much agression can make you sloppy, one small plus of the skulls. Stupid grunts. lol
