Everything is interesting if you go into it deeply enough.

LOL at that second picture Gazas. I was working on the Storm again, on a great run. By great I mean, I made it to the first lakebed, using the suicide method with the warthog. Feeling pleased with myself, and home free on my ghost, I charged that brute that I mercilessly run over several times a day. Unfortunately, it seems to be a 1:100 chance or so that the grunts go suicidal, but it did it as it was chewed up by my ghost, and it looked like I had just exploded.

Tears were shed, and I ended up in MM somehow. Oh well.

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!

You guys are really motoring along... I don't know how you guys do it. I'm thinking that if I do finish this, I will definitely be after 2010...Or 2020... But I refuse to accept defeat until I at least conquer a Covenant level.

Another one bites the dust. Our second try after the break brings us victory.

Game stats
My p.o.v.

We had some pretty tense moments fighting the Flood where we'd both end up in the same general area; chances were higher we'd hit the same target and end up hitting the other on accident. I did all I could to get out of those situations and immediately advise Tyrant to melee one for shields.

The most frantic moment involved a Sword Elite Combat Form who continued pursuing us with use of their incredible jump. Tyrant wanted to use the FRG to finish him as he pleaded me to run. Of course, that much goes without saying. Three Combat forms managed to somehow get between us, and as I passed in to one room, killing one with a Magnum, a weaponless Elite Combat form was right behind him followed by the Sword Flood.

I continued backpedaling and came out in to the previous stretch as the door on Tyrant's side closed followed by the one on my side. At this point, neither of us could tell how the other was fairing; the last thing I saw was a flash of green, which I am guessing meant Tyrant got up behind the Combat form with the Sword and used an overcharged Plasma Pistol and melee to kill it. On my side, I battled the other Flood in a melee battle, thinking the Sword Flood would be right behind.

Your appear to be 100+ years old.
00:17:21 - Tyrant's Floodgate time. But Tyrant isn't really a speedrunning guy.

Uh oh, I just saw that Kristov beat the Ark, I'm really gonna have to get into gear to beat The Covenant and Crow's Nest if i want the 11th spot. Well the 360's running, what better time to kick brute butt.

As for Halo Wars Mythic, I've done the first level, staying alive is way harder compared to Halo 3.

IT'S ON!

I can see Crow's Nest being an awesome training ground for becoming a 1337 Mythic Conquerer. I have all these awesome Idea's that could smash Pahat's records but I don't have the skill to put 'em to practice yet... And to Gazas: I thought It'd be funny.

Yes, the Flood moments in that level were far more intense than I'm used to. I'm sure, though, that a recap of the Sword Elite moment will be a rather comical reminiscence when I watch the saved film :-P

I'ma watch It for your Scarab trick, though I do like Pahat's one. You have at least 1 DL from me... Or 2 If I'm feeling generous... That spelt right? Ge-Ner-Ous?

Well I was doing Crow's Nest, the usual was happening, things seemed normal, but then something odd happened. The hanger didn't have the usual 2 brute shot brutes, just the 1 this time. Then another odd thing happened. At the Motor Pool, no carbine brutes appeared, only spiker and plasma rifle brutes.

By now I was thinking 'ok this seems kind of odd but kinda awesome too'. I'm proceeding normally etc, then in the barracks, no War chieftain popped up. Now I was thinking 'Ok something is up'. I thought the spawn system was whack or something along the lines of NPC spawning problems. The jump jet brutes were next. They barely seemed to lay a dint into the Arbiter, which was a good thing of course.

Then the Motor Pool again, no jackal snipers, just marksmen with carbines. By now I was seriously thinking 'WTF this is just wrong. WTH is going on'? The Fuel Rod chieftain was there (camo assassination FTW) but no brute on a turret up the back. I progressed all the way back to the hangar, made it out alive and well and thought 'well Crow's Nest is done....AWWW YEAH!!!'.

Then the scoring screen showed my results and I immediately noticed the difficulty: 'Easy'. I proceeded to yell a bit and I was left wondering how I could have switched it to easy when it's always set to Legendary.

I learned tonight that if things seem too easy, they are, and everything you've done has been an example of idiocy. Oh well, I have the weekend to do CN........again, and the Covenant.

Twin-Mythic (i.e. - two players, legendary, all skulls activated, scoring, no deaths by any player).

lol. Well to an extent it really is understandable. You will have runs where you catch a break or two and others where the most random things happen to screw everything up.

Yesterday while we were on The Covenant, we were at that area right in front of the first tower. Usually it takes several hits to kill that Wraith, but this time it decided to spin around in a circle, and my passenger Marine caught it at exactly the right second, shot it in the back, and blew it to bits. Sometimes in that level, both Scarabs will turn around for you to shoot and destroy with the tank. Other times, neither of them will. That's part of the fun in it if you ask me ;-)

lol. Vince and I are pretty much doing the Twin-Mythic thing in our spare Xbox time, but I think it's great that you've taken an interest in Mythic. My advice would be for you to start your own solo campaign and work at becoming Conqueror #11 instead ;-)

I'm a stickler when it comes to Friends Request. Just ask Vince, and he'll tell you like it is. I don't play well with others ;-)

Here's what I'd recommend you do for your own Mythic challenge. These are the levels I deem to be easiest to hardest:

1) Floodgate
2) Halo
3) Cortana
4) The Storm
5) Tsavo Highway
6) The Covenant
7) Sierra 117
8) Crow's Nest
9) The Ark

Friends are overrated. All mine ever want to do is Matchmaking. I just now realized I probably should have done Cortana before attempting the Storm. Oh well, a treat for later.
