Halo Reach Mythic Conqueror

Sounds good, General K. If we can gt at least one mission down a week, I can post them on my YouTube channel. I now have over 1000 subscribers, so at least we know they'll be appreciated :-D I told people that I wouldn't be posting my solo runs any time soon, but I never said anything about co-op ;-)

EDIT: So right now we're good with Shadow and Sangheilioz. Let's see if we can get Travis on as well. Then we should be on good shape. What do you guys say? One mission per week for the sake of the series?


well if you guys can't get your desired fourth, hit me up with a message on saturday and I'd be willing to fill in

Tyrant: Can you post a link here to your channel? Yes, I'mm too lazy too look for it all over this thread if you've already posted it. That or you can send it to me on a PM.

Thanks!

When the dust settles, you will learn what true terror is.

Assuming we're able to beat the missions, hell yeah I'm down for it!

didn't use any glitches or rocket strategies i used team work cept for LNoS we used brute force on that one


I'd like to see this "brute force" tactic. Film?

As far as preferring your own strategies, Tyrant's methods are the ones that are typically safest for people new to Mythic, and they are designed for solo play. With teammates, you start with different weapons and different enemies spawn.

EDIT: was this your run? Not very impressive, over 250 deaths and about 3 hours and 40 minutes to complete... Also no Blind on.

You did the challenge but you sure as hell didn't do Mythic. So grats on the 14k cR but you really have no reason to stay in this thread as any "strategies" you use apparently fail pretty hardcore on actual mythic.

Also. negative k/d from the assault rifle? Did your teammate(s) gun you down or did the AI decide to eliminate you?


1. sorry but no some people like to share there strategies but i don't

2.don't care if they were safe or not i prefer mine

3.i never said i was good at mythic and i wasn't aware there was a difference between the challenge at mythic

4. my strategies don't fail just because i don't do true mythic

5. yes they did they weren't very good it would've only taken us like maybe an hour os so but they were being pains and not listening

Definitely. I'll talk with Travis and see what he's up to. He's pretty available. I should be available saturday night as well. I'll be spending the day with the gf as it will be the first time I get to see her after her surgery, but I'll be home later that day.

Just search "Halo Reach Mythic Walkthrough" and you should come by his videos. I believe that he, DarkDevistation, and myself are the only ones who have Mythic videos up on youtube. Also, I'm pretty sure Tyrant created a playlist for his videos so you should have an easy time finding them all.

I'm gone for two days and we have four pages worth of posts?

If you need a Team Mythic person, I could help if you can't fill the usual spots.

I'm in Canada...however, I'm also in the Eastern Time Zone and I have fibre internet.

TotS? "Easier"? Really? I know it's not LNoS hard, but not by much!


There are so many tricks in that level, it makes it fun. Run up the left side at the beginning and kill the two gunner grunts.

Rocket the AA gun.

Rocket the bridge.

Skip the Zealot.

Chain gun the AA gun

Kill the wraith(s) with the revenant

Use the two plasma launchers and chain gun the hunters

The falcon ride is not a coin-toss at all. By far you biggest threat is the plasma turrets. If you can kill those before they shoot at you, you're pretty much in the clear.

Run up the right side after DMRing the focus rifle skirmishers.

The spire can be tricky; just jetpack away from the ultra.

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!

Best Regards,
The Tyrant

Thanks for all the offers, fellow Halo peeps :-) I'll definitely keep everyone in mind. Shadow, Sanheilioz, and Travis are my top pics simply because I've worked with them before and we work extremely well together. If we can make this a weekly thing (i.e. set up a specific time each week to knock out a particular mission) then this should be an absolute blast.

Looking forward to the Team Mythic :-)

Mine's not. AuraSoldier313 is both my b.net name and GT :)

Edit: God, I'm so over LNoS. Most of my troubles come from the hangar onwards (after clearing it out initially, and when Jorge's team comes in) cause of the 2 elites that tend to always alert the ones afterwards. Assuming I can get past cannon control, I always seem to fudge the bridge even though I came up with the whole ninja method when we were going through Mythic for the first time ages ago. That's where I've been getting most times now and the continual failing reminds me of why I stopped playing LNoS in the first place.

On a good run though, I'll be on the corvette at 20 mins, and usually at the bridge at 30-ish minutes or so, so I can run through everything quite quickly. Just gotta figure out how to stop those damn elites in the hangar from alerting those in cannon control when you're approaching it.

If you some one for Team Mythic then send me a message.

I have a video in my file share of putting your mythic guide to working in the solo LASO weekly challenge for Tip of the Spear.

My hat is off to the true Mythic Conquerors. There's no way I'm ever achieving that. Even with Blind off and tons of Save & Quits, I've only clawed my way to the cannon room so far this week.

Tyrant, thanks for the guides. They are invaluable.

I'm game for true Team mythic. Even though I'm not a Solo Mythic Conqueror, I'm willing to team up, follow instructions to the letter and not to screw up. I'm good for tonight and saturday. Forum name = GT.

Go Team Mythic! I'll probably throw a version of our runs up in my channel as well. I've wanted to make a 3rd person video of all of our runs so that the viewers can see exactly what is going on from everyone's perspective, as well as see an overhead view of all the action.

Unfortunately not. Back in the day when Halo 2 first came out, the forum requested that I changed my name for some reason, so I changed from SHADOWSTRIKE1 to SHADOWSTRIKE10. I wish there was an option to change your name, and you could do it only once every 6 months or so.

Lol as is mine, but it's still funny that almost all of us could not keep it the same.

Mine's not. AuraSoldier313 is both my b.net name and GT :)


Lol that's right. For some reason I thought your gamertag did not include the numbers. You appear to be the only organized one amongst us lol

Keep going, you're almost there! Once you clear the bridge -- which in hindsight isn't as bad as I thought it'd be -- you're pretty much home free.

Thanks for the encouragement. Even though they're Ultras, I'm thinking the two cannon room Elites won't be as annoying as the two Focus Rifles. That was the worst part for me so far.

I'm hoping I'll be lucky and ninja many of the bridge occupants. Hopefully I'll finish this afternoon or tomorrow morning.

I hope I have time to go through a second time before Monday morning. I'm slowly ranking up a Silver account to check how Rank affects credits earned for this thread. 14K means a lot at Warrant Officer Grade 3, especially when you can only get credits from Campaign and a few non-MM Challenges. Now I wish I had started on the Silver instead of my Gold.

I still hate the hangar battle even with the pelican turret; it takes too long to kill the elites.

Try shooting the ground with the pelican turret to clear your vision when you first get in.

You're kidding right? There are no less than 2 different versions of both winter contingency and tip of the spear from me on the highspeedhalodotnet channel. Additionally, my run of sword base, my 4:15 of nightfall and my new alexandria run are on the 'mythiclaso' channel (don't ask me who runs that because I dont know) and my 3:43 of nightfall is on my own channel (masterrc).

All my speedruns are in a playlist on my channel. Hmm, I should make a playlist of just my latest mythic times though...

I'm sure this question has already been answered, but I've backtracked through this forum and can't find it.

How exactly do you take control of the Pelican Turrent at the end of LNOS?

Thanks :)

  • 04.08.2011 3:43 PM PDT

OMFG, I finally did "Long Night of Saving & Quitting". Thanks again for the perfect guide Tyrant, can't wait for Exodus!!! This was definitely the worst so far, compared to LNoS Winter, Nightfall and TotS are walk in the park. ONI was annoying because of the wraith hijack.

I had two horrible runs earlier this week with 2 major mistakes (forgetting the dropshield, and picking the wrong weapon before going into the cannon room), and the two elites in the cannon room...pfff. Today they were actually the easiest of all covenant, as they were standing together with their backs to me. So after I've done the whole crates thing and push the button on the bridge I thought I killed everyone but the Elite. I assassinated him and suddenly a suicide grunt with stickies comes around the corner. My hart just skipped a couple of beats there, but I survived. Back in the hangar the pelican turret was still there and I could relax. And what did I get? 14k credits... oh well, if the reward was 1k I would've probably done it too.

Stand next to it, drop a dropshield, crouch and push X. Stand on the left side, as it's closer when you enter the hangar.

LOL. That was my experience too. Just finished it up. I had the hardest time with the Focus Rifle Elites and the cannon room. Now to decide if I want to try again tomorrow on my Silver account.
