You CAN do all firefight achievements by yourself. I'm saying this because I did. Play on easy, just use your automag all the time (at least 4 waves, before the brute cheftains come) and try to get a lot of headshots on grunts, turn the GBP Skull ON, so if 4 grunts are coming towards you, get a headshot and the explosion will hurt them.

I don't recommend using any oter secondary skull, but hey! that's your call. The enemies are dropped in phantoms almost in all maps, and in every reinforcement (every wave). Just use rocket launchers or fuel rod gun and try always to get multikill medals. Always grab a gravity hammer, and instead of firing it, just melee all grunts and jackals. You'll get a hammer spree after defeating 5 enemies, and after 10 you'll get dream crusher medal. This is worth like 3000 points. After you getting it, just kill anything so you can start the counter of the gravuty hammer again.

It'll take you from 90 minutes to 2 hours. In crater, use this tips.

In lost platoon, quickly grab the spartan laser and hijack a brute chopper. Here you can get splatter spree and vehicular man slaughter medals instead of hammer spree and dream crusher. Use the spartan laser for wraith tanks. In bouns round, try to splatter all grunts you can, you'll get awarded almost every bonus with a Killionarie if you do it well.

In rally point, always take out the wraith by climbing and destroying it by melee attacks (always be careful and make sure that it won't splatter you). For the others enemies, do the same that you did on crater.

In security zone, always take down the wraiths before doing anything else. Remember that here you have the rocket launcher to get a lot of multikills (do NOT waste rocket launcher on wraiths, you can take a lot more deaths than the triple kill you get for the wraith). When the aliens like-hives come out (drones), they always do between waves 2-3 in all rounds, take the deployable gun turret and take them out quickly so you can get a multikill medal.

In alpha site, always take the rocket launcher and make multikills (just shoot before the enemies jump out of the phantom so they don't scatter and you can take them all out), use a hammer here too.

Windward is one of the easiest to get to 200k (the easiest is lost platoon), also there's a rocket spawn here. Remember to use your grenades, too.

Chasm Ten. Now we're talking. Just take the rocket launcher and go for the charges, then return. Gard position. Take all enemies out from here, don't waste your rocket launcher. There'll be a lot of plasma pistol on the floor like in wave 4, if the engineers bother you (of course they will), just EMP (fire an overcharged plasma to it) and that's it. Bye to all overshields to enemies. Use your rocket launchers when you think you can get multikills. Remember that is a spawn every round (weapon drop).

And finally, last exit. Here you can hijack a ghost and splatter all enemies so you'll get splatter sprees and vehicular man slaughter medals. There's a rocket launcher spawn here, too. Try to use it well and get multikill medals. This map is very easy, too.

Now, the primary skulls. Thogh luck is almost every round active, but there's no much problem about that, you can spaltter or stick grenades anyway.

Catch is a problem in maps such as lost platoon or last exit, but if you get out of the brute chopper or the ghost, and take all the grunts out with melee attacks using the gravity hammer, it is REALLY EASY to dodge all the plasma grenades. With brutes, while they prepare the spike grenade before throwing it, stick them first and then dodge their grenades, you'll get more anyway. You can even get the most difficult medal in ODST, the Sticky Fingers medal (10 stick grenades in a row without dying).

Black Eye skull is the same, just kill with the hammer using melee attacks and if you get hurt, you'll recharge your shield very quickly. Just be careful when the drones show up, they aren't easy to kill with the hammer, so take them out using the deployable gun turret. You can also take cover and the drones will get to you on land, so it'll be very easy to take them out by a melee attack using the hammer, but this way you won't get multikills medals.

Tilt skull, just assassin enemies as much as you can. Keep taking out the jackals and grunts with melee attacks using the hammer, but brutes try to assasinate them.

Always when facing a brute equipped with a hammer, come near to it, and when it's gonna attack you, go round it and assassinate it. It's very easy to get hammers without wasting the charges or wasting bullets. Fire the hammers only when facing 2 hunters (because if its just one you can easily take it out by melee attacks in its back).

Famine Skull. Well, who cares? It's very rare that you'll pick a brute shot, an spiker, a plasma rifle, etc. The only thing you'll have to use is the plasma pistol in Chasm Ten. And if you get a hammer with this skull on...doesn't matter! You don't need to have any charges left to use it for melee attacks.

And...Mythic Skull. Alone, it changes the gameplay, but not that much. But in combo...Imagine you're playing heroic solo and turns on Tough Luck, Catch, Tilt and Mythic. What you're gonna do? die.

Even in easy the combo between Tilt and Mythic is very annoying. But Mythic only activates after set 4, and I don't think you'll need to get to that set, because in set 3 you'll have the 200k. Anyway, I hope that helps anybody.
;D
