Okay, so after lots of planning and plotting, I finally finished my Storm run for Mythic 2.0. Original time? Over an hour and a half. 2.0 time? Roughly 30 minutes. I used a combination of tactics, but here are some of the highlights.
1) Instead of going through the side passages in the beginning, I just open the doors and use my BR along side the Warthog gunner. Works almost every time. Either way you'll probably lose shields anyway, but this way is faster.
2) I enter the second lakebed with a Plasma Pistol and BR. After I get to the center building, I kill the passenger with the Rocket Launcher and save it for a later time. When the Scarab arrives, I "disable" the Marines from the Missile Pods to keep from getting nuked. Then I take out the Grunts from the crane, jump on board, and deal with the Brutes.
3) Even though Arbiter uses the Rocket Launcher, I provide support against the Hunters by using Spikers like Vince. I managed to kill both Hunters this way many times.
4) I've learned to time the AA gun at the end of the level to roughly 5 seconds between openings. It only takes two charged plasma shots to destroy it, so I do it from a distance. Takes only a matter of seconds to disable the AA gun now.
