Mythic =/= SLASO.

Mythic is Legendary with the Mythic Skull on, and Slaso is Legendary with all skulls.


youre right in that mythic doesnt equal slaso, but your explanation is also wrong. according to this 3000+ post thread and HBO, mythic is solo legendary all skulls on + zero deaths or saves.

if you have better documentation to prove otherwise, i'd like to see it.

okay so maby he mods. u can top his mad mod skillz. lmao!


Nah he don't mod. But I really wanna beat at least one of his times. His Sierra 117 and Crow's Nest times are nearly impossible to beat. 22 Minutes on Crow's Nest, I mean c'mon! Thats insane.


I was thinking I could beat his The Ark time but then he has to go and do it in 40 minutes... Damn.

Let the baby have his bottle. If he thinks that giving 1/5 ratings to our vids is actually getting back at us, then good for him. People like him never learn no matter how hard you try to teach them. It's best to just shun them and forget about it.

He does it because he's too lazy to go back and do it correctly. To be honest, though, at this point even if he did, I wouldn't put him on the list. Simply because of the way he's been treating everyone. Grow up, dude.

That is 100% wrong....

The amount of saves/deaths doesn't change the difficulty.

Seriously, what I said was right.


Actually, it does. The Save & Quit exploit allows you to bypass the Iron Skull's effect. And without that lingering danger of having to restart the entire over, the difficulty isn't as high. It's effectively the same as playing with all Skulls except for Iron.

i'm sorry. i must have missed your name on that list. oh wait, that's because you aren't on it. i'm pretty sure team claso and HBO have a hell of a lot more leverage on what's what than you do. if u want me to take u seriously, either earn a slot on that list, or find official documentation by Bungie on your claim. otherwise your words mean absolutely nothing.

Very true. It's still technically beating SLASO, but it isn't beating the Mythic Difficulty.

so is iron the only hard part about slaso? Didn't realize that Black Eye or Thunderstorm or Mythic skills are easily brushed off.

I just hate it when people discredit someone for dying when they have all the skulls on...

Once you get the hang of it, Iron is truly the only real challenge. Without it, the original quest would have taken roughly the same amount of time as H2 Legendary to complete. The H3 campaign itself is the easiest of the three.

Yeah, I knew that it would be pretty tough with it on, I just thought that that other guy was getting on your case about dying during the quest, which kinda set me off...

I dont know, maybe I misunderstood. I jumped in pretty late.

Hey, btw, did you guys go on and get annual? Sry I didn't see your message till later on. If so, I hope everything went smooth.

Yeah, I really can't speak for SLASO, but Mythic requires no deaths or saves. All videos are available all over the web for people to see. Including in the OP.

The annual achievement was an absolute cakewalk for us :-)

Yeah, our annual went fine. We had no deaths up until the ghostage, which is when this little kid we had's riddlin wore off, and he decided to boost around that ice ledge you have to go around right after you get the ghosts.... it took him a good 4 or 5 tries when we finally convinced him to take it slow... he then decided to blast through, not waiting for the rest of us, allowing the rest of the level to load, making our straggler to fall off... he then tried to try and find "secret pathways" underneath the floor tiles... so we had to keep starting that over and over until we convinced him to do that on his own time... but we finally did it after he calmed down... Point being, we wish we didn't have him... :)
