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!

Cortana is mostly based on luck. Practice the level enough times so you can get a better feel for getting from Point A to Point B as quickly and safely as possible. Your most valuable equipment on this level is active camo with bubble shield coming in second. Use them WISELY!

When it come to melee for getting your shields back, target the Brute forms and Stalkers. They will go down easy. Stay away from Tank Forms altogether!

And nice work with the last level!

Also remember that the Sword/Hammer trigger and melee will recharge your shields too.

Bah, you should have said Halo SLASO was so damned easy! I would have done it long before now.

Seriously, I had less trouble doing that, than a 3-shot run on normal Legendary (that I'm still trying to do, I keep messing up)

Also make sure you have full shields before you go for the drive.

Nice, but not required. I got meleed by the last Flood Elite form, and had to do the entire drive without any shields. I believe your health still recharges, so as long as you're not totally bombarded, you can still make it quite easily.

Especially with a few tricks I know :)

lol. Your health doesn't charge at all. And yes I did include a list in this post on what levels to do first. Halo is #2. Floodgate is obviously #1.

The reason I told him to melee is because he's being killed by sentinels. The best way to avoid this is to start the drive with full health. Obviously having full shields makes you less suseptiple to the sentinel beams

To all peeps intending to try SLASO:

Practice with all skulls on accept Blind and Iron. Those two are more psychological than anything else.

Thought I'd let you know Tyrant (seeing as I'm not really making this public in any of my own threads or websites)...I've only got Crow's Nest and The Ark to do now.

Finished The Covenant last night.

Epic Scarab battles.

One of them even destroyed the other :D

Congradulations John! The Ark is that hardest level IMO, but once the Dawn lands, it gets much easier. I've also noticed on the last battle if you wait long enough, the game kills the enemies for you. I had already killed the Chieftian and four of the jumpjet Brutes (one flame grenade doused four that were clumped together). Also use the hill when fighting the Scarab. You can shoot at it while it doesn't seem to be able to shoot back. It will just walk around in circles, allowing you to shoot off its back and then the generator.

First Attempt At SLASO On Sierra 117
Died At The Sleeping Grunt Area
Via 5th Sniper
All Damage Acquired By This Sniper
On First Attempt I Have Found Many Enemies Not Firing Or Throwing, Just Standing There, But If You Melee Them The Wrong Way They Will Fight Back
I Will Keep This Up-To-Date

congrats on being the 3rd person. A tip for the Blind skull: Start up any campaign mission, and put something on your TV screen in the exact spot the reticule is to represent a reticule. whether it be a loop of paper or a bagel, it really helps.
