I keep getting to the wraith and then having some random granade blow me up. This sucks.

Anyone know if you can skip any of it by getting out of the map?

I know in Pahat Pojat's video he skips the wraith, but his way seems three times harder. You can check it if you'd like.

Everything is interesting if you go into it deeply enough.

Sharpace, are you talking about Tsavo Highway, or the Storm? I can't imagine where the grenades are coming from if you are talking about Tsavo.

Skipping the wraiths on Tsavo is (in my opinion) incredibly dangerous - far more dangerous than dealing with the wraiths. I wouldn't attempt it unless you are going for a speed run. Just my opinion, though.

If he was talking about The Storm then I have no clue.

Have you watched Tyrants guide? It helps drastically with the wraiths.

I received my Halo 3 Recon armor on 8-3-09 for completing Sierra 117 on Mythic Difficulty through the Summer Mythic Recon Challenge.

How often does killing a Scarab NOT recharge shields because it didn't for me. That made the second half of "The Storm" quite a bit harder for me, though I did manage to finish (and get my shields back from the hammer Chieftain no less.)

Anyone else have this happen to them? I did use the 1.0 turret bombardment method to kill the Scarab btw,

Grunts are your worst enemy

I'm done. 5 hours wasted. For some reason, grunts love to throw grenades. Who knew?

For some reason my shields don't seem to recharge after killing a Scarab either; they did during The |Covenant but that's the only time I've noticed it. Then again, on The Storm I'm usually already at full shields by the time I kill the Scarab.
I do know that melee attacking the core will get your shields back, otherwise I'm not sure how it works.

During my run of the storm I noticed that I got my shields back after killing the scarab (using missile pod). I'd never known it to happen before, but I wasn't going to complain about it. It made my life a lot easier for the last part of the mission.

Perhaps you are standing to close to it when it blows up? Your shields might get damaged from the explosion.

For some reason? Who knew? This isn't Normal and there are skulls turned on!

People, I thought you'd seen the Campaign in a different perspective, yet you give up at the first Covenant level?

Even if the challenge for The Storm is over before you manage to do it, you should keep trying either way.

Sure it's a challenge to do these hard levels in a week but if you've come this far, wasted several hours, then you should make those wasted hours, spent hours.

Though at the second brute blockade battle, I think I might have spent 2 minutes flinging the chieftains body around. =/ Just wouldn't let go of the cannon lol.

can you do the mission and then send it right away or do you have to wait and everyone sends it. i know how long you have to do it but do you have to wait to send it in a message to tyrant.

As soon as the competition for that week starts it's open to submissions. Send them as soon as you finish. And just edit your post next time instead of triple posting.

EDIT: And nice reference there gazas. Lives wasted or lives spent? Hours wasted or hours spent? To be or not to be? ;-)

Yeah, waste is never good. Neither is not to be, lol. Unless you're a toilet brush.

In Tsavo Highway, does anyone know what makes the Shade turret either spawn on the left side or the right side of the first vehicle barrier?
Is there something that cues it to spawn on one side or the other, or is it truly random? Most of the time it is on the left side for me, but I have seen it on the right side in other people's videos.

It's totally random, much like the weapons the Flood can spawn with in Cortana. Your question seems to indicate that you're trying to rush the mission. Don't. Try to make the most of it and actually enjoy kicking Covenant ass because this is one of the few missions in which you can sit back and enjoy the fireworks since you're given everything you need right at the start; namely the Warthog (I prefer the Troop 'hog loaded with Beam Rifles and Fuel Rod Cannons :-D ).
Speaking of which, I've just submitted my entry. It was a first attempt piece of ownage with some really close encounters thrown in. It may have been 53 minutes long, but there were some real "Spartan" moments such as having a Wraith bear down on me after skipping the main battle and somehow managing to kill the Sniper in the tower behind it before killing it's gunner then hijacking it and turning it on the Choppers in the nearby area. Freaking sweet.

I completed all levels for the challenge on my first try (all three that is). Let's see if I can do the same for Tsavo Highway. Rusher that I am, I doubt it.
