Dont worry about The Ark, man. If you beat Crow's Nest, you've got nothing to worry about. I did it on my first try after getting passed the ghosts, which is only like 3 minutes into the mission, which is easy to get passed.
The beginning of the level is half-luck, which is what is going to rack up your number of tries. Once you get passed the ghosts though, it's easy sailing for the rest of the level.
From the ghosts, you are in a tank. After the tank part, you're up against sleeping enemies. After that, you're just PP/BRing brutes in close quarters (sounds like a level you recently beat, huh?). After that, just some Pop n Shot brutes, and you're clear.
Give yourself about 3 hours, and you'll have the level down.
Thanks for the words of encouragement, and yeah I just read/watched through the 1.0 guide on HBO and I'm really not all that worried. The only really tough part seems to be the very beginning, which is good because I'd rather get it out of the way. Everything else is, as always, just taking it slow and checking my corners.
I'd like to say, though, that it's really very impressive that you Mythic Masters are so encouraging and helpful to others working on this goal. It's all too often that people who achieve something this awesome form an exclusive club, of sorts, and look down on everyone else not in it. So on behalf of myself and everyone else you've helped, thank you so very much for your patience, encouragement, and above all, respect you've given us. You've certainly earned it all back. =)
Use the 2.0 way of getting up to the brute choppers at least. It's much quicker, and it'll save you a bunch of headaches. Not to mention knock like 40 minutes off your time. From there, I played a little conservatively... mostly because I had a tank and tanks have big guns that I could sit back and blow stuff up with.
As far as what the Conquerer's do, yeah, it's how we roll. Mostly because we're glad to see so much enthusiasm in it now. I remember a good 200 pages or so ago when it was mainly just a couple Conquerers and a couple soon-to-be conquerers (myself included) posting. Now the difficulty has grown substantially, especially thanks to Tyrant getting his Summer Mythic Recon Contest. Now I feel that if I dont check in every day to the thread, I get out of the loop easily :P. And I'm glad for that.
I'm glad there are a bunch of people willing to pick up the hardest thing Halo has to throw at them, and push for the finish line. The Conquerer's are here to help you get there, be it tips, or just a pat on the back.
