Congrats with Cortana Vince. I somehow got a sword clash with a flood located around the same area on my run.
Anyway, I was in the last part of the toilet area (or whatever it is) in Crow's Nest. I'm about to take out a jackal that conveniently just runs straight into my line of fire, the chieftain just happens to spot me from behind my box hiding spot. He fires, I retreat. I deploy a regenerator whilst hiding behind some stairs, and I hear a noise. Not a good noise, a very bad, back to the start of the level noise. Whilst all this hiding is occurring, a brute just happens to stray through the corridor to the right, spots me and sticks me while I'm none the wiser.
I'm seriously starting to think CN has cursed me with random occurrences. First the flying warthog splatter, then the berserk brute headbutt assassination, now this x_x
Hmm...that sounds like the Barracks. See, the Brute who stuck you, if you go back and check, is probably one of the Chieftain's bodyguards. If you haven't checked out my Enemy Guide, you can find their distinguishing factors in there, but the particular thing to note about those two is they each have a Plasma Rifle.
Back to what I was saying, from what I've noticed in all my time playing of playing Crow's Nest on Mythic is that if the Chieftain notices you and starts firing at you and you retreat, he won't come after you; that's their job. If you were spotted in that small hallway, one of them may go through there or they may both come around the other way in a group, and they are pretty good at spotting you, so long as you didn't run pretty far away.
They almost caught me off guard at one point. I was expecting one of them to come through the hallway...instead, they both came around the corner rather quietly while I was watching the door...and then the Brute yells one of their phrases and I turn to see them standing one behind the other, both priming a Spike Grenade. I retaliate by throwing a Spike Grenade at the Brute in front, who also gets stuck by the Brute behind him. The resulting explosion managed to take them both out.
