Dying so close to the end can get frustrating, I know. When you get that far, just use the Wraith to blast everything from a distance.


I was using the Wraith. I couldnt see any enemies, So i slowly moved forward and died :( Couldn't move back fast enough.


that gets frustrating. plus that's a pretty tough level from what i hear.


Depends on who you ask. Personally I actually found it easier than Sierra 117, but that's just me.

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!

It certainly can be, though I still think there is a bit of luck involved. There are a couple of spots which kinda force you to be timely in order to pass successfully. The nice thing about Sierra 117 is that you are free to take as much time as you need to clear each area.

That's more my style :-)

It's certainly tough, but after awhile it becomes fun too :-)

The hardest part on the Covenant is the beginning. The scarabs are also challenging.

Congrats! I know that had to have been rather frustrating.

Well, now I can easily get past the Wraith and the Prowlers but what seems to be getting me on every level I try are the battles with multiple grunts, shielded jackals, and brutes. My biggest problem is the jackals; I can take out the grunts easily, but the jackals always dodge my overcharged PP while the brutes pound away at my shields... Any tips?

The Brutes are easy. One plasma charge will decimate there armor and almost always cause them to berserk. From there you can either headshot with the BR, carbine, or pistol or assassinate them when they charge. Save them for last.

The Jackals can be a bit tricky. I find it easier to sneak up on them and tag a leg with a sticky. Also, when you shoot the plasma charge and they dodge, they lower their shield. Take this opportunity and peg them while you can. This will usually set them "off-balance" and give just over a second to target the head. One headshot usually does the trick. the key here is quickness.

My SLASO is Done for today.

Conclusion; Completed Tsavo Highway (Link is somewhere in this Thread).

I cleared the first area on The Storm. Took out all the Ghosts, Wraith's. But just as i killed the AA Wraith. A BANSHEE killed me! And the other time. I did the same, killed everything. I went up to the next area. (I didn't know what to expect from this bit) And i got bombarded by Grunts and died. :(

I'll watch a video of The Storm later to know what to expect throughout the level.

Nice work! The EXACT same thing happened with me with the banshees, so after that I learned to jump right back in my ghost and get as far away from there as I can. Just remember that when you reach the next area you can skip the Chieftain and drone battles entirely. You should take out the grunts and a few Brutes in the area before you do though.

Congrats on finishing your goal, but is there any way you could put it up on youtube? That would be nice.

Go to Eathalo.com and they'll upload your vids to youtube for free

Yes but you have to be quick in the Storm. You can only bypass that area if they haven't blown up that little truck with the crate on it yet. Other wise you have to go up the stairs.

Yep. Hence the future walkthrough. However, it will more than likely need to be in segments due to the length.

Would you like to join our quest in getting seven completers? If you can do it once, you can definitely do it again.
