I'll be on in roughly an hour and a half from now (5pm EST). Since I haven't heard from our other two Mythic guys yet, we'll probably be doing matchmaking, and you are more than welcome to join in.


I might be on tonight, 50:50. I'll try to get on, but I may not.


That leaves us with just waiting for any word from Starocean.

............................Will you watch my runs? =)

Just kidding. When will you guys play, 'cause I'm free to play in about 1 hour. Can I join then?


I'll watch your runs. I have nothing else to do. Also, if you want, you can send me runs where you die. And I can give you pointers if you want. I have nothing else to do to pass my time.

I could send you the video of my first and only run in Sierra 117. It's 47 minutes long and I died right before the Sniper forest. You want to watch that? =)

No Problem :)

Time for a quick laugh.

So I'm playing on the Storm, going in the room with the first Chieftan. I did a ranged-overcharge shot to get rid of one of his guard's shields, and of course, when I try to headshot him later he has a magical second shield.

So I turn around to get away, thinking to myself that I need to kick the Marine out of the Warthog driver's seat. The moment I am turned around, I get splattered by the Warthog. The scream the Master Chief let out was hilarious.

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

The Storm is notorious for having the greatest number of freak Marines betrayals. I even warn people about it in the walkthrough. It's even worse when they run you down and ask, "Hey Chief! Need a ride?"

  • 10.10.2008 2:04 PM PDT

I'm used to it at this point. Lol. It's not that far in, but I figured they would do that to me. If you get have Marines left over from the first lake bed, if you go far enough in to that room they'll drive vehicles in there and try to fight off the enemies. I had two Marines go in there on Ghosts...they did pretty well for a while...until the Grunts spotted them.

I wanna know if anyone can go on Legendary with every skull on and I mean "EVERY" skull on and then you can complain about how badly raped you got on Campaign.

Legendary difficulty upped the anty with the Mythic skull you are now playing on the Mythic difficulty. Less ammo, all your enemies are special opps, melee attacks only tickle them, you cant see your hud or your crossair, or your shield, or your ammo or weapons and grenades. Your enemies throw grenades untill you're dead, they dodge your every effort to stick them, their attacks are rediculous, their accuracy is phonomonal, you have no where to hide cause they know where you are, you die and you start over, your shield only regens when you kill with a melee attack, but wait! The enemy doesn't seem to be effected by your melee attacks, Now what?
Feel the emense pressure of Campaign that would make the perfect achievement for people who enjoy it.

That is what "Mythic" is. Legendary with the Mythic Skull is just that; Legendary with Mythic Skull on. Mythic is all Skulls on, and No Deaths and No Saves.

  • 10.10.2008 2:17 PM PDT

So this run has been particularly amusing so far.

I assassinated the Chieftan...
Watch a Brute get in to an empty Ghost about half a second before it got hit with a Rocket...
And I learned that a Pelican can splatter and destroy a Banshee by driving in to it.

Just my luck, a berserking Brute was in the air and was lounging at me and when I dodged him, I was about to assassinate him but what happens, he doesn't finish his long lounge, he starts a new one right when he lands! So we hit eachother at the same time and I died.

This goes to my WTF moment list for sure. Anyway, let's start over again lol.

Yeah, that's the attack you don't want to try and get an assassination off of. They do a follow-up attack if you're close enough while turning to face you.

Yeah.....anyway so I'm at the river now. I know what to do here, and I know that I should not come close to a Brute....at all.....

I'll use your 'Ranged plasma bolt' tactic here =)

  • 10.10.2008 3:36 PM PDT

I just owned the Scarab. That may be the fastest I've killed it.

So, the usual happens. Scarab comes down, oh no. No Marines are on Missile Pods because the ones up there when I arrived eventually left to go grab some vehicles. So, I barrage the backside of the Scarab for as much as I can. A Marine gets on the Missile Pod afterward and gets blown up by the Scarab's gun.

I go grab the Missile Pod and head over to the right side. The Scarab stops by the crane, fires the main cannon twice and turns around. I immediately pull out and unload all the ammo. The back gets blown off and one or two of the Missiles redirect to the core. The Scarab starts wandering off and I take out my Sniper Rifle.

Moment of truth. The Scarab turns around and the core is down. One shot. Two shots. A third one and the Scarab collapses. I brought the earlier Sniper Rifle with me and didn't use ammo with it until that point, so I had ammo to spare. The one in the second lake bed has 6 rounds total. I think the one in the first area has the same amount.

I think this is going to be the most boring run......OMG.

I have been sitting here at the river for like 30 minutes or something, trying to kill the last BRUTE!

The same one that killed me. I did a charged plasma bolt from across the whole place, he stood still but when it was about to hit him, he look away and walked away from it. 5 times.

he's just standing there. If I go out, the sniper will get me, if I just stay there, he will just stare at me, he dodges all my damn attacks.

Oh wow....I throw TWO random frag grenades and THAT kills him. Whatever, time for the sniper forest.

Download my Sierra 117 Run if you want. Might be able to help solve your problems at the River. Because I found the River very easy.

It is pretty easy but I didn't get how he could DODGE all of my plasma charges!

He's dead anyway, by some random frag grenades. Time for the forest.

And I died....I killed the Jackals in the forest, then there's one up on a tree. I headshot him 7 times and he falls down, he did not die! Then he just ran to me and shot me once and I was dead.
So third run, I ended up at the end of the sniper forest. I'm tired now so I'll go to sleep.

I guess it's a good warmup. I'll be more awake tomorrow. And let's hope the xbox isn't as sad as it is now, not letting me headshot the enemy :P

My first run and death on Mythic is up on the Fileshare for people (Jew) to see.

Haha, had to say this, an angry Brute was running towards me and when I thought that he was gonna lounge, he pulled out his Brute shot! Guess the rest! Haha, I even laughed at that.

Looks like I'll need to buy yet another Halo disc. Both are pretty scratched now. This will be my third copy of the game. I've already purchased both the Legendary and Limited editions. Guess I'll go for the norm this time.

  • 10.10.2008 5:32 PM PDT

Looks like it takes three or four shots to destroy a Scarab core when it is exposed with a Sniper Rifle.

It was a good run. I was searching the Scarab wreckage for Plasma Pistols and I managed to come across a Rocket Launcher. I decided to give the Arbiter a present. It cracked me up.

Everything got annihilated by the Arbiter, save for one Hunter, which I managed to kill with the BR when it wouldn't stop hitting the Arbiter.

But I died in the end while the AA-Gun's core was glowing red. I was trying to Magnum it to death for a second time. The Chieftan in the area had other ideas, though. I would have used a Plasma Pistol since it's so much easier to keep track of where I'm shooting but the game decided it would be funny to remove all of them after the Hammer Chieftan and pals were all dead.

Oh and Tyrant, if you find watching Mythic runs entertaining, you'll definatly like the third slot in my file share. It was like my third actual try at The Ark and I got so lucky in about 30 different places.
