Double post but;
Sierra 117 in 11:27.
Considering Pahat Pojat got 11:04. I'm proud of myself on that one, maybe one day I'll improve it and beat him.
Nice! I'll watch it tomorrow though, I'm a bit tired.

I wonder if activating all silver skull (blind, iwhbyd, cowbell and grunt birthday party) AND reaching set 5 in firefight on legendary with some deaths is considerated as an acceptable ''mythic challenge'' eh? :)

(everyone who has recon know that set 4 game 3 wave 5 got every golden skull on = mythic)


I'm SO in for THAT challenge (not dying, wich is very very very veyr unlikely):D (but maybe I should complete campain halo 3 first X_x)

Let's hope that your xbox will weather it out. If not, well, I hear there's a new 360 console : ) Have fun with Coastal Highway...

And if you don't mind, Tyrant, could you remove me from #16 on the conquerors list in the ODST thread? Also, xNicHx is a new conqueror.

At the Guilty Spark battle, you can simply stay still until Spark fires. He'll never fire his beam directly at you, but rather near your left or right. This gives you a bit of time to react and dodge it.

I know that that has been talked about before, but I don't think that anyone has actually seriously tried it yet.

Hey Dark, I watched the whole thing. Congrats on an excellent run! You had a few hiccups, like the jump in the beginning and then stuck b/w the tree and rock. But your mythic sniping in the pre-dam area was incredible.

To improve your time, I suggest you use the HSH Sierra Legendary run technique to get up to the ledge of the pre-dam area. Its safe w/ a brute shot + nade, then use your bubble at the top. Melee the enemies that walk toward you (a brute and ~3 grunts) to recover your shield, and about a third of the time this brute also drops a bubble. I think this technique could cut more than a minute off your time.

Also, in my zero shot runs, I made it past the tree ledge w/ brute holding marine part by jumping up to the right, running past the enemies, and sticking the brute in the cave. I haven't tried it on mythic, but i imagine it could be done and would save you 30-60 sec.

Still, 11:27 on Sierra 117 Mythic is incredible. Great job, and I look forward to seeing you crush Pahat's time!

You know what's more amazing?

Lol, well. I used Eli's trick at the Pre-Dam. But the Dam area itself took 4 minutes because the Pelican took about a year to arrive. Looks like it still can be improved upon. But to be honest, I'm not touching it 'till someone beats it.

Edit: I'm gonna youtube it asap to share it out to you guys.

Congrats Dark!!! I had no doubt in my mind you could do it. Can't wait to watch the vid!

And your experience reminds me, I still don't know what triggers the pelican at the end, and i havent found anyone who does. Whether it's kills, time, or has anything to do w/ how you get to Johnson or w/e, it would b great if someone could do some test runs and enlighten us. I'd do it but my xbox is far, far away...

Edit: Congrats to RC Master, one of our conquerors, for being in the weekly update (very last question)!

Thank you Eli. I knew it could be done, just doing it was challenging.
The pre-dam area could still be improved upon. My one was embarrasing to be honest. I practiced it Brute Shotting of the Arbiters head because he would normally just stand there, and doing this meant I could be a tad more reckless in the previous area because shields didn't matter. I also practiced with Frag Grenades, but these were never successful.
But in my successful run, the Arbiter ran off. So I attempted to chase him down and bring him back. But after a few seconds, I realised he wasn't going to return. So I had to do the jump with a Plasma Grenade + Brute Shot. Which worked well, surprisingly. However, it's still a few wasted seconds, and every second counts.

Then, the dreaded Sniper, who I didn't kill because it would've wasted time. Normally he fires two shots which both miss straight away. Giving me the chance to run instantly. However he didn't do this, so I tried to get him to shoot. Impaitently, I ran anyway after a few seconds. However, this wasted time because if he had shot straight away, I could've ran straight away.
And then the dam, normally the Pelican arrives in 2-3 minutes. However this time, it took 4. Which was painfully slow for me.
If I were to re-run this and try to perfect it, it could go sub-10. This run was slow from the pre-dam onwards. If someone wants something to do; find out what triggers the Pelican to come.

I may do it again in the near future, being a perfectionist has its flaws you know. But for now, Pahat doesn't have an xbox, so I suppose the record will stand. If Pahat does the run again, I'll be happy because I know the run wont get much faster, which is the aim of speedruns. I want the mission to be done in the fastest time possible.
