Dude if THAT doesn't impress bungie and getting hit by a frucking cone does... then I seriously question Bungie's standards.


Well, If they did give Recon out, It should be to the FIRST person to do SLASO. I mean they gave it to the FIRST person who got hit by and cone, so if they did it should be the FIRST person.

I agree somewhat... but Mythic takes true skill. And a LOT of it. Getting hit by a cone is pure dumb luck.

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,

I believe Pahat was the first, yet even he didn't even get an acknowledgement from Bungie. I'm not talking reward. I mean not even a PM saying congradulations. I think at the very least they could've done that for him.

In address to your quest for two more players:

I have two people that are budding LASO players. I've been training them both for a while in CLASO.

I'll see if I can get them to dedicate themselves to SLASO.

I'll get back to you on that.

Everybody meet #6.

After being killed countless times by Brutes, Jackals, Grunts, Drones, Grunts, Elites, Grunts, Marines, Grunts, the Flood, Hunters and the Arbiter!!!!!! I am HAPPY to announce that I finished the campaign SLASO! Although it took me an eternity, I am glad I did it!

NaCl out.


Crow's Nest took 2 minutes?

Sierra 117 took 55 seconds?

Think what you want but I completed the levels.

Ok. I think you're a liar.

No, exactly the same. I guess Bungie figured with the difficulty of SLASO that too few people would be able to beat it, and thus nearly everyone would miss out on a secret ending. Instead, all you get is glorious satisfaction and huge bragging rights :P

According to your stats and fileshare, you've only beaten Floodgate on SLASO. Sorry, but we need more proof here.

I hope you can get it short enough. Geevee wouldn't take any of my other vids other than Floodgate. Said they were too long.

Clear out the jackals, grunts and other Brutes until only the Cheiftain is left. A charged plasma pistol + 6-10 headshots with a BR will kill him.

i figured as much, but i used up all the br ammo on the jackals and grunts. is there a stash somewhere?

  • 07.28.2008 6:35 AM PDT

Yes, actually. Right after you get through the forest of snipers, you'll find a crashed pelican near a lake. There's some BR and Sniper ammo right next to it.

fortunately i did find that + the sniper ammo. but is there a way to backtrack once you reach the area with the chieftian?

  • 07.28.2008 6:50 AM PDT

Nope, once you get that far, you're stuck. You shouldn't need to bring more than a BR and a sniper though.

i must be a bad shot :)

next time i will just juggle a second br down there and hopefully that will cover it.

Don't be afraid to stock up on ammo. Also, consider tossing a couple of beam rifles down there too since on SLASO they sem to have a more devastating effect on the Brutes than the Sniper Rifle. And don't forget Carbines. Since it's the last part of the mission, it's the main part you really don't want to screw up.

Another thing. Keep in mind that the two jackal snipers are your top priority, followed by the Grunts on the ground below. Once you have them out of the way, you pretty much have free reign to snipe without worry. There are a LARGE number of enemies in this area, so take out as many from a distance as possible including the Chieftian. This prevents you from getting so easily outnumbered. Trust me when I say you don't want to die simply because you lost track of one only to have them sneakj up behind you.

i was playing campaign with a friend and he sneeked and put all the skulls on and it was on the covenant. i think thats actually the esiest lvl on SLASO cus it really didnt seem that hard but then i tried it on solo and OMFG it was crazy... ive completed a couple lvls but im not even close to beating it... and to those that beat SLASO i hohnor u, if they truely completed such a task then they deserve a reward.!

a person that completed SLASo is a true spartan!!!!!! cus its sooo hard... i just cant imagine that its actually possible! lol aspecialy cortana. its really not as hard as u think if u just run all the way thru it randomly bashing flood lol. most ppl dont even have thge guts to try. and if u dont even have the guts to just TRY it and if they cant do it cus they suck then stop, then those ppl shouldnt be playing halo!!!!!!!
