Thanks =) Ah yes, finally.

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been around much, been super busy. Can anyone tell me what I've missed? I see Gazas has joined our ranks. Congrats man, well done. Has anyone else done it?

And what's the deal with our CLASO thread? It has some Bungie symbol next to it now I think.

EDIT: It's been deleted/locked. Seems fitting, we weren't really using it much anyway.

Congrats Gazas, I am downloading your Cortana level. I have been pretty frustrated with the level so I havent been trying much. Hopefully I can get some inspiration from your vid. ;)

Somewhat Off topic- Anyone good at photoshop or graphic arts? I am trying to find someone who can re-create the symbols that are on the 13 skulls. I think that it would be fitting for this group to have access to some higher res images for the skulls.

I had a few ideas where I wanted to use the symbols recently. I was going to carve some of the symbols into my pumpkins for halloween. I also bought some discounted halloween skulls from walmart, I wanted to put the images on the skulls. I thought it would look cool to have all 13 skulls on my desk with the graphics painted on them....

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

Nice work Gazas! Welcome to the Mythic ranks!

u guys know that part where the elites come and soon after miserably die?

i pass that part go up the hill after i kill the flood. and what i meant was the part with the big truck

sry 4 not being specific and again if i still arent ill try to locate it on the gamevee vid


oh i love that part... brings me back to the good ol Halo: CE days of having an army of marines...

what I did was skip the cutscene, and run and jump down to them all, which makes all the flood explode immediately, and then you usually have like 5 extra elites in addition to the arbitor. I then moved forward until the flood came, and then booked it backwards and went up to the higher level next to the dead marine with the BR laying next to him and just picked off some combat forms, and there was BR ammo laying right there :D.

lol now i gotta tell a story. One time when I was trying to beat that level I did just as I stated above, but all the elites started throwing plasma grenades. constantly. so it was really nice cuz they cleaned up all the flood really quickly. so I thought "oh hey, they're all still alive! this should be cool!" well, the grenades threw a bunch of boxes on the slanted part of the hill, and they all started running up it together. As we all know, when an elite kicks a box, it goes flying. Well, i watched them, and sure enough, one elite kicked a box, and flew right at the others, and splattered 2 of them lol... so i was down 2 elites, but it was so hysterical that I didn't really mind :D.

Thanks for the support guys. This doesn't mean that I'm done with Campaign though, I will still play campaign with you guys. I might even try to do some own kamikaze moves. Correction, I will.

Barkley, my run was inspirated from the veterans' videos so you can watch mine, but their videos might be better =)

Because the Mythic Skull, while it is the namesake of the difficulty, is not the skull that adds the most difficulty. The top three are Iron, Blackeye, and Blind, although Blind is only about half as bad as Blackeye.

Alright, that's what I was thinking. It's really nice by the way. What did you use to make it?

I think it was Photoshop.


Anyway, wouldn't a real challenge be Halo 2 Mythic? :-)

It would be, but it doesn't matter if you die, as the Iron skull doesn't have the same effect as on Halo 3.

So what, isn't it the same with Halo 3 co-op? If you die, you restart from checkpoint but for it to be called Mythic, we quit and restart. You can just do the same with Halo 2 =)

It wouldn't be the easiest though.

Yeah that's a downside.

For you it should be a piece of cake to complete it though, haha.

I made my own "Campaign Leaderboards", feel free to check it out.

On topic: Halo 2 Mythic might be a good idea, but I wouldn't want to grab the Skulls. I've never tried Halo 2 Legendary, and I know getting the Skulls on Halo 2 is Legendary only, so I don't want to try it.

  • 11.03.2008 12:13 PM PDT

I say that Mythic in Halo 2 should be left as is. No special rules.

I don't think I need to remind anyone how much of a pain the Sniper Jackals were. Sniper + Camouflage = you die a lot

Hunter + Camo = death trap. Invisible Prophets + Taratus? Wow.

I remember Tartarus on Legendary only, it was a real pain in the ass. I was really bad back then though so I don't know.
