There comes a time in every mans life... and that time is not now.

I want to see if on the Long Night of Solace, on the bridge. You can put crates in front of the door and block the spec ops energy sword elite.

I doubt it, unless you bring the crates with you, but even then, you have limited concussion rifle ammo and grenades. It would take an eternity if you pushed the crates into place, plus the spec ops elite isn't that big of a threat. Weak shields plus no ranged fire.

LASO is not for the weak hearted. It took my friend and I 3hrs and 30mins to do this, and we're pretty expierenced, well maybe not him though.

You're absolutely right. I don't have a single friend on my friends list that has ever been able to make past the first group of covenant on any of the LASO challenges. I have one person on another forum who was able to do it.

Not even the Nightfall one?

Too bad, because now they can't say, "I beat an entire weekly challenge in the period of a lunch hour."

Nightfall (which, in my opinion, is the fastest to complete but not the easiest because I always get seen by the second group of Covenant and dinosaur grunts) is the one stage I have gotten a few of those friends through. The problem, like many of my other friends, is that they want to fight their way through. So of course they get demolished by the beam rifle rangers.

I remember taking two people through that stage and my instructions were clear cut: Sit back and hide while I make forward progress. The plan was to just let the game spawn them up to me as I moved farther and farther up ahead. What did one of them want to do? "I'll help you out by taking a few of these guys out that are behind you!" Sure enough, they get taken out and we have to reload the checkpoint. We easily wasted about 20-30 minutes trying to get them to just hide and let me sneak past everybody.

Also, why do people call it "Armor Lock?" Isn't it, "Armor Lockup?" I just noticed that now.
The armor ability name on the loadout selection screen in multiplayer and Firefight says "Armor Lock". It's probably just an inconsistency.

I find an eternity of wacking a crate into place for the assurance I won't get a swish to the face is worth it. But that is my own oppinion

i agree that the weekly has "bollocks" written all over it.
at the same time there's a daily challenge "kill 125 in MM". WTF?

Yes Nightfall takes the least skill though.

I who walk alone in this world wrapped in the arms of the past not knowing what lies ahead of me. What am I? A soulless being to be beaten by the rage of those who hate me? Cutting my way past hopes and dreams. Sit in the window sill as I do every day and night resignations on my slate of who I am and what is left behind. Concealed in the words that chases my every thought. I who walk alone in this world…I am broken

I am saving this tread for the last LASO mission.

i did the weekly on Nightfall for some easy credits, doesn't require any skill at all.
But this weekly is like a big laugh compared to the LASO's. Heroic is stupidly easy when playing all the LASO missions, after getting hit a few times you just run to a Grunt and hit him in the face.......... shields back

OT:
My friend showed me that the Elites can despawn at The Pillar of Autumn... The part after the buggers where you get nade-launcher and SP-laser. When spotting the Elites, walk all the way back till the game says: Loading...
Thats WAY easier then Tyrants grenadejump (in which i suck)

Heh, actually I think 'Any mission but Long Night of Solace.'

All the others are possible. Proof for all of which can be found in my fileshare.

Please put a vid of this with all skulls on. Don't worry about rendering if you can't, I will gladly sit and watch this before I go through the hairy method that Tyrant has posted.

Plus it would totally help us all.

This trick has been known for a loooooong time. The reason we don't do it is because the excessive time it takes to do, especially when it's fairly easy to just skip boneyard completely. I think despawning the elites is going to be in the next Mythic Tips and Tricks video, which should be up in the next few days on Tyrant's youtube channel.

A number of the tricks he uses will be nearly impossible for those who aren't frequent mythicers. Hell, I still have a ton of trouble with the concussion jump towards the end, and I've practiced it for when we tackle the mission for quad-mythic. So I don't think it will help everyone as much as you think...

Rule of thumb: the shorter the film in mythic, the riskier and trickier the tactics.

Well, Quad LNoS was going pretty well. I though we were making consistent progress. Sorry I had to bail so early. My gf came home 2 hours early from her EMT class, walked in the bathroom, and abruptly started throwing up. That's why I was muted for like the last 10 minutes of the mission, and then had to go when we died. If anybody's up for it, I'll be online tonight from like 5:00 pm (EST) till whenever. I'd like to get that mission down, and we're really close.
