Do you usually take out the Brute and grunts that are droped off by the first phantom and then jack the Wraith, or do you just rush across the lake right out of the gate and wait for it?

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!

Until you can get comfortable with the timing, I suggest just rushing across to the other side. 50% of the time, the baddies in the middle will eventually head on over in your direction and start attacking. Usually i can deal with them just fine. But when you get the timing down, dtop off in the middle first and Plasma Charge the Brute. The Marines should be able to finish him.

i applaud any1 who finishes any level on SLASO


Yaaay!

Oh and btw, Shishka might not know the answer to the question on the OP. He deals with gametypes/playlist stuff. If anyone would know it would be Lukems or Achronos. But I've PM'd both. No reply from Lukems yet. But I only PM'd Achronos yesterday.


even if they aren't at liberty to say due to some sort of violation of privacy, they should still answer the question by informing Tyrant that it isn't something they can disclose. Not by ignoring the topic.

Why would that be an invasion of privacy?

So far I've sent a PM to Johnny, Shiska, Lukems, Sketch, and Achronos. I also do my best to keep this thread on the front page when I notice one of them on, even changing the title to address the Bungie employee.

Makes me wonder if it's just being ignored.

Random Sierra 117 question. I just got to the part where Johnson is running from the Brutes. There is something shooting that looks like shots from a Plasma Cannon, but the weird thing is that it is shooting at the Covenant it seems like. The only Marine who ran went by was Johnson. I'm not sure if it's the Phantom, because if it is, it's been there for a while...that and normally they don't shoot at each other.

Edit: It was just the Phantom. Not sure what it was shooting at, though.

Funny thing. On my "Arbiter Does SLASO" film, the phantom actually gets stuck in the middle of the area. I tried to kill the Chieftain in hopes he wouldn't appear in the last segment, but apparently he's invincible. I'll see if I can upload it.

Why not try it? It kinda like getting adjusted to Legendary after playing the game on easy. It's far from impossible. Just takes a little getting used to.

I think to do It, you need to learn how to run more than to fight...

just like in the 2nd lvl on halo 2 (outskirts) you could just run through the whole map without killing a single covie...

You can on some levels, but try to do that on Sierra 117 and you'll end up as a puddle of plasma goo.

Vincent is right, Crow's Nest has 3 Chieftains. Additionally, there are 3 Chieftains on Tsavo Highway (One can be skipped altogether) and there are only 2 Chieftains on The Ark, as far as I know.

There are actually three on the Ark.

One War Chieftain right after the scarab.

One War Chieftain right after you activate the Cartographer.

One Weapons Chieftain at the end of the level.

Yea, On Tsavo Highway the one that can be skipped is at the massive Brute fight. Just get on a Chopper and boost past. (Thats what I did)
