If you would like to know more about Mythic difficulty please go to this thread. Thank you.

Please do not send me "recruitment messages" as I'm not interested in joining any groups currently.

Yeah, but that was my first run, the one which started me off in Mythic, plus I killed everything like on your "Exterminator" vid.
BTW Tyrant I think HBO is down again because whenever I click one of the walkthrough links I get a "link is broken" message. :-(
Anyway in Multi news Dan and I just made it to the third tower with minimal effort only to be thwarted by the Hunters...(We ran out of Fuel Rod ammo and due to an earlier fail with the Hornets all of our Elites got massacred by said weapon's previous owner.) Any ideas on how to kill Hunters with only basic weapons?

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

Vince has cooked up a few methods, but I've never attempted them myself. He's apparently even managed to melee one to death. Sounds like it's all about fancy foot work and a little leg room.

Ha. There I go again with the dirty remarks :-P

Yeah, a few pages back I remember Vince saying he knew a loop you could cause with a Spiker to kill Hunters, I asked if he still had it lying around but got no response.
I could try Gazas' Brute Shot method I suppose.

Oh and Tyrant there's one other thing we noticed; the marines at the Hornet section are extremely reluctant to ride shotgun on the Hornets even when we give them Lasers and Beam Rifles. Know any coercion techniques?

It's because you're playing Multi-Mythic. Have both you and your brother take off and trigger the chapter start. Then return to the starting area and your Marines will hop on board.

Thanks, we must have spent almost ten minutes trying to persuade the marines to get on board. Now we can speed up and hopefully after a bit more practice and a bit of luck beat your time again. ;-)

Use a Brute Shot to kill the Hunters MATCLAN.

Hook up with me sometime and I'll show you. While the Elites are killing the Drones, go to the side and kill the Drones on the side, then get a Hunter to follow you so I can have some alone time with the other Hunter. Then I'll come and help you out.

Or, if you want a Hunter Beatdown each, you can melee him before I get a chance to come help you out, so we both can have alone times with the Hunters!

I seem to have forgotten how to kill a Hunter in any other way.

Or if you really want to practice the above method, practice on The Ark where it's easier and quicker to get some 1vs1 Hunter training.

So, basically you are saying to lure a Hunter out and slice his back with a Bruteshot?
If so thanks, 'cause that will come in handy for me and MATCLAN.

How did you get 4:22 on Floodgate?
I am running trough the whole level witout stopping so how can you beat me with 31 seconds......

Shadowstrike please answer :)


Umm... little tricks here and there I guess. My 4:27 is in my fileshare I think... i didn't save the video of 4:22 because I didn't think it a significant increase. I think the record is held by Pohat Pojat for 4:11 I believe?

Some things I'll throw out there, do you jump through the glass at the first part where the flood jump down, or just run through the doorway? It's faster to jump through hte glass window. Also, do you use the gravity hammer at the end where it slows you down before you touch the button to blow up the ship? You can pretty much make it to the button 1 second into that cut scene, eliminating the 10 seconds or so of his speech slowing you down.

  • 03.20.2009 8:27 AM PDT

i was pretty happy this morning because i was able to complete floodgate on mythic in 4:18. I am practicing and taking notes on the fastest methods of completing the level because i really want to earn those maps. Anyways, best of luck to any other players trying to earn the maps tomorro!

Everything is interesting if you go into it deeply enough.

Sigh. Was working on the Storm.. Still. After a few warm up rounds (in which I got to witness the worst grenade throw, ever) I managed to work my way to the Scarab, with full shields no less. For some reason, in the first tunnel, the Brutes were actually climbing up onto the side walkway, and staying there, even when I backed off. I even had one come into the first room.

I actually used the ghost this time, managed to actually splatter all the grunts and the brute, and then strip the armor off the brute. Sadly, I moved on, figuring my marines could finish him. RIP marines. Anyway, so there I was, staring at the scarab. So, I started to get into a good rhythm... Sadly my marines must have offended the Scarab AA gun, and done so quickly, because after getting it to start its spin, I ran to the missile pod, right into a stream of fire. The gun wasn't looking at in my direction when I started to run through that little room, but as I emerged on the other side...

It was frustrating because I was on my best run ever, with shields, taken the back off the scarab... So close. Anyway, I'm going hiking over the weekend, so see y'all Sunday, and good luck with the little event.

I had a similar storm run just a minute ago... everything seemed to be going wrong, yet I managed to get to the hammer chieftain anyway.
The brute and a couple of jackals in the first open area followed me over to the wraith just after I'd taken out the gunner. What happened after was an epic game of hide and seek around the wraith, with a lot of shots going everywhere, and the wraith providing both cover and extra shields for me.
Finally managed to beat that and move on... both of the missile pods then got destroyed in the scarab area, but i managed to board it by jumping off the top of one of the cranes, and took out the brutes guarding it without a hitch.
Then whilst I was facing the hunters the arbiter got taken out, and I proceeded to dance around with both of them for a bit before taking them both out with an AR. The Arbiter revived, and made the hammer chieftain back off.
What then got me killed was Arbiter deciding he didn't want to go forward, so I ended up thinking "what the hell, I'm on full shields, I'll make a dash forward to some more cover, then the Arbiter will move up and help a bit."
Turned out I wasn't on full shields, I was on no shield, and one of the carbine brutes killed me with a single shot.
:(

Yeah, the Drones weren't too much of a problem. I just sniped them. I will take you up on that offer though Gazas, the only problem is the Sweden-UK connection, I can't see it being favourable for Campaign.

Remember, Peeps... the Floodgate contest starts in less than TWELVE HOURS!!!

  • 03.20.2009 12:38 PM PDT

S'up, I have a few questions in regards to the contest if you don't mind.

First, I just want to be positive that the tag I am to recommend the video to is yours, "I Tyrant I".

Second, in the article about the contest it says the following: "Be sure to PM the Tyrant within 24 hours following the end of the contest to receive your prize!". I am curious how this works exactly; I highly doubt that you would want thousands of messages in your in-box, so I assume you are going to message the winner first, and then that person is expected to message you back. If you could confirm this, I'd be more than grateful.

Either way, thanks for hosting this and best of luck to everyone.

Its "I The Tyrant I"

Anyway, almost time for the competition people. I still need to get a new disk and my friend wants me to go round his tommorow. So I'll have to be fast and get a good Floodgate time.
