RC is just as much a Mythic Conqueror as anyone.


Yes. All the blu-tack would do is just physically put the dot that we imagine to be there anyway. Plus, RC's given a very vast amount of input throughout his Mythic campaign. Blu-tak does not diminish his level of completion.

Now, if someone were to whip up some sort of health bar and radar out of blu-tak, then we'd have a problem... and also a very clever person among us...

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!

In a similar vein of thought, I wish that when viewing the film one could turn back on the HUD to review how close one was to, for example, dying in certain instances. Or how nearly one ran out of ammo in a certain fight, etc. Nothing whilst playing, just during the film for analysis.

And we've got another laso challenge!!! Oni this time. :D

Edit: This time we don't have to put blind on >.>

Except you can do it without Blind -.-

Challenges menu in-game > view challenge > notice the lack of blind skull. It can also be seen when you select the challenge; it'll only show 12 of 13 active.

Nice Bungie, toning down Mythic for the complainers. I was literally 2 waves off the prior weekly when the new challenges kicked in, and if some guy wasn't AFKing I would've got that 15000 cR just in time. Now this pseudo-mythic challenge comes along with full sights enabled. You know what? I'm pissed off.

Halo Reach Mythic Conqueror

How could they turn off blind? That's what makes it hard, figuring out how much health and ammo you have is half the fun. Way to dumb it down for the noobies. Also once again you'll notice it can be done in co-op and therefore you can die a million times and still beat it, rendering the iron skull useless as well.

Ps: I blame RC for this. They must have seen the blu tack discussion.

As disappointed as I am about Bungie caving to the whiners... I am happy for the free 11,000 cR. Whether it's required or not, I'm putting blind on. I need to improve my time anyway.

This thread is going to be helpful for this week! :)

Pay attention all those who want the weekly challenge!

I may have worked out an alternate strategy for the start of ONI... one that should speed up the level considerably. I don't usually try for speed runs, but I might make an exception this time.

Twenty-ninth Halo 3 Mythic Conqueror
Eleventh Halo 3: ODST Mythic Conqueror
Fifth Halo: Reach Mythic Conqueror

What a pleasant surprise for Family Day: a new LASO challenge!

Keep in mind people, the Mythic community is an extremely small minority. Bungie has to make sure that the challenges are accessible by new and old alike. How many regulars are there to the Mythic forums? Like, nine or ten?

It's an easy eleven thousand credits. However, I wouldn't mind if Bungie made it true Mythic i.e. Blind, no Save % Quit, no dying; if they jacked up the credit reward. LNOS, say...one hundred thousand. ONI? Fifty, or sixty thousand. That Inclement Weather won't buy itself!

Halo Reach Mythic Conqueror

I'm thinking I'm probably going to end up doing the weekly in co-op and was trying to think of a way to hijack both wraiths. Do you think this would be possible or do you think one wraith will shoot at you while dealing with the other. Also all the infantry on the ground mainly the elite may be an issue as well.

My next question is can you split up and have one person go for each objective? If you could do this and have both wraiths it would be awesome.

No. The game would teleport you to the other player.

Twenty-ninth Halo 3 Mythic Conqueror
Eleventh Halo 3: ODST Mythic Conqueror
Fifth Halo: Reach Mythic Conqueror

Just finished the challenge! But why am I posting my success here? This is the Mythic forum, not the LASO forum.

A couple things to note: I've always found that part at the very end of ONI: Sword Base to be really finicky when it comes to how many banshees you need to destroy. There were no banshees circling overhead, but the game would not end. A few minutes later, a little waypoint appeared literally over one hundred thirty meters away (to the courtyard where you start) saying, "neutralize". I tried shooting some rockets that way (I also learned that rockets drop due to gravity, just like in real life). Eventually, the waypoint just disappeared and Emile said, "That's the way we get it done Spartans!

TL:DR version: If the game won't continue at the end, even if you thought you killed all the banshees, just wait; they'll kill themselves.

Did anyone else notice that at the part with the target locater, Kat says "Six! Use the target locater on that wraith". Wraith. Singular. Now, either she didn't see the other wraith, or she's a close relative of this guy.

Or she knows that I am going to hijack the other one

So we have to suffer when we're 2 people but you can still complete an unimportant mission with 4 people? FOL (F Our Lives)

Halo 3 (31st), ODST (14th) and Reach (4th) Mythic Conqueror. (Mythic is Solo, Legendary, All skulls on + scoring on and no deaths/saves).

Staff Writer and speedrun record holder at highspeedhalo.net

Ignorance is the true enemy of all things.

Rocking Bungie.net for over 8 years!

Two things about the weekly annoy me:
1. Its NOT LASO. Don't call it that! You're just confusing the definitions for the public further. Damn it Bungie! Call it LABOSO (Legendary, all but one skull on) or something.
2. The payout its pretty poor. Yes no blind, but this is a much longer and harder level than Winter Contingency. Last weeks challenge was 15k for a super-easy grind. This one takes skill, foreknowledge, planning and careful execution. Especially if you don't know how to skip the enemy spawns inside sword base...

Anyway, bagged this just now with my GF. That makes us 2/9 for CLASO :)

I don't think I am gonna bother with this weeks weekly challenge. My ONI mythic run took over 3 hours and right now I just want to concentrate on Exodus.

smart, interesting, seems out of place.


Official fan of Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, (Problem with that?) Halo, and Bungie, also a total gaming junkie.

Are there only 13 spots for the Mythic Conquerors? When I saw that you only had 13 (Which is the same number of skulls) spots, I thought that this may be true.
