You have a lot of dedication to campaign dude well done. I want to try some on Mythic, but can't get around blind.


Try putting some blu-tack on your screen to overcome the lack of reticle problem. Then press Back to know what weapon you're holding.

Ugh. I was so close on my first attempt on New Alexandria. I was on the final jammer in the hospital, but then the friendly AI followed me out of the lobby so I had to fight the Rangers. Somehow I snuck past them and they went into the lobby, but then I forgot how to get past them at that part. All my friends online wouldnt help me by watching RC's run and tell me how he got past that part so I died trying to kill them off. :(

I don't quite know what your situation was from this description...

I got stuck right after you kill the ultra elite in the hospital and had all the rangers that appear after you deactivate the jammer blocking my path out. I unfortunately forgot how you got around them in your film and I couldnt get a friend to watch it and tell me what you did so I just tried to kill them and was unsuccessful. I now know how to get past them when they are coving the stairs out, but it sucks that it was the last thing I needed to do and nobody was on to help.

@ Michael: You're doing it wrong for the first AA gun on TotS. Just drive the 'hog up the ledge on the left of the are as soon as you've killed the Skirmishers and kill it from outside with Rockets. Saves ammo health and frustration. You can then drive straight past everything up to the refinery, go straight to the roof and juke the Covies there before skipping the Zealot with one easy jump.
Likewise kill the 2nd Tyrant gun witht he Revenant from a distance and then deal with the Wraith and Hunters with the Revenant and Plasma Launchers + Needle Rifle respectively.

After that it's just the Spire which is nice and easy.


I find it a bit easier to do it up close and personal then doing it from a far with the turret when Kat likes to jump into the driver seat and drive me into the ghosts and the revenant. I have yet to find a way to stop this. Plus the revenant might still shoot at me. Good thing in the rest of game I don't have to deal with that anymore.

When I try to kill the second AA gun with the revenant, it takes a really long time. (plus you have to dodge wraith mortars) This is probably due to the fact I can't see the damn entrance.


For the first AA gun drive next to the cliff so that the AI can't get into the driver seat. Easy.
As for the second one, bombard it before you jump down. You can see its "neck" from the broken road part near the Data Pad and the Revenant's arc hits it nicely. It also doesn't take that much longer than using the 'hog and saves you triggering the Drones.

Speaking of LNoS, I did it just a short while ago so I'm assuming I'm the first to have done so. This also brings the community total to 8/9.

I'm very impressed! Did you actually take you over two hours or did you pause it at some point? Can you upload the film to your file share? I think we'd all like to see it :)

Tip of the Spear down. That last ELite was hilarious, he had me paranoid but then went and stood next to a Plasma Battery... Needless to say he hit the ground like a meteorite, and went the way of his dinosaur relatives.

Getting a film now.

If any of the other conquers are on, I need some help. Im doing New Alexandria and was suppose to get an unlisted mission, but all I was told was I need to take out the jammer and enemy infantry. I have no idea what that means since I already took out the first jammer (Dance Club one) and Ive done it before where I didnt kill a hunter. What am I suppose to do?

The objectives are randomized. You have to go get another jammer. This is where the Blind Skull becomes a bit more evil.

I know they're randomize, but this time it didnt tell me what that random thing is. Usually it says something like Buck needing an escort or marines being pinned by snipers. Luckily I found what the random thing was after flying around for an extra 10 minutes. Turns out it was an extra jammer on a rooftop with brutes guarding it that I needed to disable.

Since when does SLASO go by Mythic? Back in the olden days of Halo 3, 'Mythic' difficulty just ment turning the Mythic skull on. Did I miss the memo?

  • 10.06.2010 7:49 PM PDT

You mythic guys are inspiring, I haven't ever beaten a Halo game on Mythic and I have only beaten the first two on legendary. I'm making it my goal to beat Reach on legendary and this thread is keeping me going. If I'm successful I plan on going back and doing ODST and Halo 3, if I finish that endeavor who knows, maybe I'll become a mythic guy too.

Just got done with New Alexandria. That levels me with 6 more levels. I think Im going to try TotS next. BTW, does anyone know if its easier to fight your way past the zealot that you have to kill for the achievement or run past them by jumping down to where the grunts are?

Or you could just let him run away? I've done this on my solo Legendary run and it's much easier than trying to quickly evade him or take him down. It's optional afterall :P

It's better to burn out than fade away.

HEY GUISE, finish exodus on Mythic, and whoever does gets a cookie.

I hate to burst everyones bubble but how exactly do you plan to "Survive" after the credits on Mythic?




jkz i kid. Props to everyone doing this, I'm pretty sure that if I tried I'd kill myself before I finished a single mission.

Well, I've completed Mythic Nightfall which took like 3 tries lol.

I've been working on Exodus as my 3rd mission. I keep getting to the Falcon part, and Banshees keep killing me. It's really aggravating. I'll hopefully have it done by tomorrow.

Any suggestions for my 4th mission? I'm thinking about doing The Package, but I'm not sure.

I've completed every part leading up to the Falcon, and I've saved and quit to beat the last section, so I'm soon to join that group once I piece it together.

PoA is all that's left?

I still haven't even had a chance to try WC, been mad busy. Loaded it up on Mythic once, and jumped off a cliff before the first fight cause I wasn't paying attention, then had to go. I'm brilliant.

Dude srsly. This is definitely one of the missions I listed in my random mission guide on page 12.

"Six, Covies brought out a mobile jammer to mess with our short-range. Sending you the waypoint, go deal with it."
Objective: Destroy the jammer and infantry - Destroy a Covenant Jammer and eliminate the infantry.
Location: West of the SinoViet Centre. North-East of *building with big hole in it*. Cooling towers and a series of pipes on the roof. It is on fire in its North-Western edge. Billowing smoke. The Jammer pulses a blue light every 2 seconds that you may be able to use to spot the building.
Intel: 5 Brutes with Concussion Rifles and Needle Rifles. 3 Grunts, one with an FRG. You must land to destroy the jammer.


What do you want? Pictures? (Maybe soon)

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: There is a way to make him not even spawn. Think a bit more creatively guys.

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

I guess you didn't just miss one. You missed several ;-)

It's been this way since 2008 :-)

Don't try to be a great man; just be a man, and let history make its own judgments.

I really want to try this, but I don't have the patience I think.

There are so many parts of the campaign that were just... insanely hard on Legendary. It makes no sense, there is no way past them!

Crazy props to the first to get this. You deserve something really unique and cool from Bungie.

Maybe you should put everything about a mission on 1 page. As far as I knew, you had everything on New Alexandria on page 15.
