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

To play or not to play....

In any case well done. It could not have been easy. I have tried to do this so many times but I always give up after dying like 150 times in like one minute *grin*.

Good job :)

Go Kansas Jayhawks!

im starting now and i will join you in the champions of SLASO.
it might take me two months but it is worth it!!!

also using plasma rifles against the flood really helped me with beating the flood on legendary.

I've done Halo and Floodgate SLASO, yet to try out any others. Done most others SLASO except Blind.

Thank you. You can do it too. It just takes time, patience, and practice.

Sorry to keep posting about this in your thread Tyrant, but assisted jumps is something I do know quite a lot about. Particularly those on Halo.

wats the status on hammer jumpz?


In normal circumstances, a Fuel Rod Gun is easiest for these jumps. Simply stand in the correct place, run forward while looking down, jump and then fire at the ground.

However, with Black Eye gimping your recharge ability, its better to use a hammer, since that gives you a boost in the jump, while not harming your shields.

I've just produced a shortish saved film demonstrating both hammer jumps up to the spine of the tower. And just to prove its more than possible, I did it on Legendary with all skulls on.

You can download the saved film here

I did die once at the beginning, because of blind I thought I'd picked up the hammer but actually hadn't. Its only a minute of the film though.

It also demonstrates how easy it is to simply hide away for this section of the level and let Arby, Johnson, and the Sentinels take out all the flood for you. Then, when trying to get an infinite Spartan Laser; Johnson killed me. And thats the end of the film :)

If you don't have time right now for the saved film, I've thrown up a gallery on my website showing stages of both jumps.

No biggie. I needed to test the gallery features anyway.


thankz for the input RC!

the most dissatisfying noise has to be the beep of a stick grenade.

Wow, congratulations! I'd probably struggle with SLASO Heroic. Legendary is just insane. You deserve these cookies for all your hard work:

16 cookies FTW! lol.

It's a setting you can get used to. It's like when you play Legendary a few times and get the hang of it. After that anything less just seems ridiculously easy.
