exactly. the only two ways to prove would be stats and/or saved films like Tyrant and Pohat and everyone else on that list.

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!

The Tyrant

I'm announcing a new goal. SEVEN completers before the release of the walkthrough.

lol. Well like it or not Floodgate is by far the easiest. I have that one on my fileshare along with a couple of others. Feel free to scope them out.

Pahis can do Floodgate in under five minutes SLASO style.

Sure thing. And remember a couple of things.

First off, the pure forms don't come around until the near end of the level. Also, Brute and Human combat forms crumble easily and work in favor of the Blackeye Skull.

Like I said, if you get to a point where you're stuck, watch the video. Floodgate is one of the few levels where you can play my favorite game... "Run Like a Mo-Fo!"

You're exactly right. I used the gravity hammer for the first half of the level, then switched to the BR for the second half to rack up those points :-)

You'll find that the biggest disadvantage of Blind is not actually the absence of the reticle, but the health bar. Always assume your shields are low.

I tip my hat to you good sir. That first area is probably the most challenging portion of the level and that's where it misleads you. Why? Bungie starts you off with the two WORST weapons to use in campaign. Once you get to the first area with the sleeping Grunts, you'll have plenty of Carbine ammo which works wonders on the Grunts.

If it wasn't for that first encounter (or had your starting weapon been a BR), that entire level would've been a blast on SLASO.

You don't kick a man when they're down, so don't teabag me when I'm dead!

Three reasons why I ain't gonna do it:

1) I've done it with the Black Eye and Mythic skull turned on and I nearly threw my 360 out of the window. It is hell. What would ALL the skulls be like?? Iron skull would mean that I would always be at the first part of thew mission.

2) I still haven't done SLSSO (solo legendary some skulls on). It took too long to complete it on legendary also.

3) No reward. I doubt Bungie would give me recon...

Nonsense. You have to start somwhere.



And to the guy above, yes it takes time. But once you get used to the setting, it become remarkably easier. Regular Legendary has become a cakewalk.

who here is ACTUALLY going to try? raise your hand now!

Do it.

More people in the community should be at least trying this. I for one play with nearly every skull on when I'm NOT doing SLASO just because it would otherwise be far to easy.

My co-op buddies hate me XD

i was working on the Floodgate.......got every guy dead.....was about to drop in the hole.....a LEFT OVER flood with a sword made sure i didnt drop......i cried.......

and YES, learning to play with all the skulls on becomes instinct, as if the game was created that way. you learn to seek cover, play safe, use ammo CAREFULLY and other such things you never have to think about until you do SLASO.
