Achronos: And what's this about a "design team" I've been hearing? Apparently stosh is so awesome he's now considered a "team".

S.L.A.S.O stans for Solo Legendary All Skulls On and no you don't have to do it in one go or do the levels in order and solo means single player not co-op.

Sweet, just finished my first mission of Mythic SLASO! Check it out here.

And I was reading about how you want to do Quad-Mythic. Sounds pretty cool; If I get three Mythic missions done before you start it than I'd be interested in joining.

Nice I finished floodgate yesterday but it took you 4 hours?

  • 11.13.2008 2:36 AM PDT

No, I think you may be reading something wrong. Under the description of the clip it says 04:47:41 - thats what time it was when I finished, 4:47 a.m. - Not the duration of play.

And now its almost 6:30 a.m. and I have not been to bed. Oh the things I do for halo...

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

Slight correction there. "Mythic" and "SLASO" (as stated in the OP) are close in definition, but not actually one in the same. SLASO just states finishing a mission solo legendary all skulls on. Mythic is finishing a mission on Legendary, all 13 skulls activated, with zero deaths or saves. Technically you can cheat SLASO by saving and quitting. You can't in Mythic. That's what makes Mythic legit and more challenging.

And congrats to the newcomer!!! :-)

I'm going to post about it in the group.

I am just going to pop in out nowhere for a minute. I've been attempting Mythic on Sierra 117 but haven't completed it up till now. I keep getting killed by random grenades that I don't see, damn grunts are the number one killers :P (next to the marines ofcourse).

So when I've done it I'll probably join the group (if you let me ofcourse) and go for a full quest :).

btw, when I play i make a mark on the tv to show where the aiming reticle would be normally (I stick a bit of blu-tack on it). Is this considered cheating or are you lot just uber pro at aiming without a reticle? (looking at the videos I can hardly believe that it's being played without marking the tv)

Complete the mission on Mythic, turn on scoring, and upload it to your fileshare and that's your ticket in :-)

No, using a visual aid to help you aim isn't considered cheating. After some practice, though, eye-balling it becomes surprisingly easier.

Personally, I think it's cheating.

I still need some practice with the Blind skull.

So are you eyeballing it in the videos or using a visual aid?

Eyeballing. I have a plasma screen, so I can't draw anything on it. lol. I'd break my own hand if I did that.

Same, though I'm not playing on a plasma screen. I just never needed anything to assist my aim.

I think I'll stick with the blu-tack for now though and try it without another time.

In retrospect, yeah, it is pretty damn impressive that I can still pull of consistent headshots with the Sniper Rifle from a good range without anything to help me aim but my mind's eye.

Unless you have glasses, then you can just draw on them =)

I though you had 4:56?

4:27 is my personal best... I'm gonna try better after I complete the whole quest.

I use the 22" ViewSonic widescreen LCD screen that MLG supports. I has 110" HD projector, but I hate having to move my actual head to see the other half of the screen... And I'm picky about video lag, and all projectors have them sadly... it still makes for a kick ass Rock Band party though! :D
