So how quick is the Zealot method? That could be our fifth.

Not long. Like 3 minutes or something. The clip goes from just after killing the Engineer to after the final two Zealots are dead with the FM still alive in the background.

Well, just going ahead and killing the zealots. Clip. its actually only two minutes, but I get kinda lucky and the 2nd and 3rd zealots stay where they are and let me kill them quite easily so it could be entirely misleading. I can still render it if you want tyrant.

I also took the liberty of making a combined video for de-spawning the Wraith and jumping across the roof-top on the left hand side of the area. It starts just as you enter the tunnel and ends with the cutscene. Would this be ok tyrant or would you prefer to present them separately?

For the despawning wraith I do believe those are on your channel on youtube.

Not the actual video of it but within your PoA speedrun.

Despawning it takes too much time. The rooftop skip is, but its not on Mythic.

Of course the rooftop skip is also in my Mythic speedrun, which I could certainly clip from there instead.

The tactic of speedrunning ONI swordbase doesn't seam to be working as the switches cannot be activated through the wall as seen in the video

Thats not actually in my fileshare any more... Sure that clip could be used also I guess.

You're doing it wrong.

No really. The margin isn't very wide.

My bad, I guess I didn't realize that the rendered video section was not considered file share. I don't have bungie pro so I don't know how rendering things works

You made a mistake in your tips video Tyrant, grabbing the Falcon was not discovered by Cody Miller he was first to use it in a speed run. It was found by Slynki.


No. I wasn't concerned about who first figured out you could take the Falcon, but rather the person who figured out you could place the Falcon in the Spirit and use it to break through the invisible barrier. In the video I saw, Miller was the first to put it all together, not just take the Falcon.

In that case it was HoldxToTrick that pieced it all together.
As seen here.

Just ran Tip of the Spear in 8:35 film time. However, quite a large problem being that I ran it offline.
I'll fileshare it tomorrow, but it probably wont be official.
Also, means I have to redo my Heroic and Legendary runs now, because I'm pretty sure the Mythic time comes out at around the same as the Legendary one.

I remeber from Winter Contingency LASO to kill the last zealot you could use the energy sword.

Get real close with full shields and wack him 5 times to pop his shields your's will also be recharching because of black eye wven if he's kicking you.

Not that the method in tyrant's guide doesn't work, this just made it easier for me.

Also what about putting a piece of tape over the screen and tracing a DMR rictacle. This could be used to counter the blind skull.

or for mythic is this ilegal.

Illegal, no. Frowned upon, yes. If you can't adjust to blind, this can ease you into it though. Blind isn't all about aim though. Not seeing health and ammo is its major killer IMO.

Agreed. After my first time on Mythic in H3 I had it down. Three campaigns later, its like I got eyes when eyes aren't there...? ;)

Blind is a stupid skull. You can do what you want to your TV as far as I'm concerned because unless you own up to it no-one will ever be able to tell anyway.

Prove it. ;)

For the record, I did all three campaigns without tape, but I know people who did play it with tape (not naming any names).

All I'm saying is that if it is illegal, and you're accusing someone of this, the burden of proof is on you.

The first couple missions I did I used tape, but eventually I got tired of tracing it in a custom game first and smudging up my tv in the process. Really its not that bad once you embrace it

How would tape work? Wouldn't it just cover your target, making it harder? Wouldn't it be bad for screen?

Or not? It appears the film I had dissapeared, and the 8:45 film is run with a death in it. The run I completed, has vanished!

Edit: Found it! I'm timing it out now, film is 11:26, so it's probably 11:10 or something.

11:15 - 16 seconds to cut down!

HEY!! There's the enemy! Can I shoot it??

Just gonna throw this out there, but is there any guys here from the Oceanic region who want to explore campaign to find new tactics for guys like RC and Tyrant to test out on mythic?

I have a fair idea for a group tactic for New Alexandria, but I need people to help me test it.

Cheers!
