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

lol Yes even when we lose I still have fun doing team co-op :-) It's far more entertaining than solo.

Halo Reach Mythic Conqueror

Hey guys, I know I haven't been a part of quad-mythic in awhile but I have been thinking about LNoS and feel that we are really under-utilizing quad-mythic. When we get to the corvette basically the strategy is to have 3 guys up top, 1 of which calls out enemies and the other 2 just do nothing, while the guy inside rockets the enemies.

I think it would be awesome if we could somehow come up with a tactic that actually utilizes everyone more efficiently. I'm not sure on what we could do it just seems like we are really missing an opportunity here.

Another thing I was thinking about was in the 1st hangar battle we again basically have 1 person do everything while the others just sit back. Once the main threats are taken out and all that is left are the focus rifle ranger elites, I had an idea. The rangers elites have pretty weak shields and was wondering if 2 people could take sniper rifles and coordinate their shots to shoot them at the same time while a third takes him out with a DMR. I'm not 100% if 2 sniper shots will break a ranger's shields, but it seems like this could be a quicker method than having to PP them from across the map like we've been doing.

Just a couple ideas I had to make Quad-Mythic more team oriented.

We were practicing the area with the Focus Rifle Elites and I thought it was going a little slow so I broke orders and went out to help, really all you need to do is to shoot them with Needle Rifles and if there are many of you it becomes even easier.

As for the Corvette, I'm very used to doing kamikaze, I did it in my successful run and me and Dark did it together in our run and frankly I'm not good at any other method but what we did seemed to work, as long as we have the Rockets and as long as a certain Mythic God doesn't blow himself up with them 3:)

The needle rifle does wear them down, but It makes them dodge quite a bit which can be aggravating

I've been thinking about this too, and I have a couple ideas that we may want to test out sometime. If we can get all four players to take one of the elites after the initial two jump up, we could potentially clear the comms room in no-time.

As far as the hangar part 1 goes, I know that I go up on the left side and pepper the focus rifle elites' shields while Tyrant is working on them up top. A third person sending holograms out to the middle to distract them has helped out before, so the fourth could probably also help with the peppering.

There are a number of ways we can utilize the team more, so maybe we need to spend some time just trying different things on a non-mythic CLASO run.

*Stupidly long grin on face* Apparently, the key to completing LNOS on Mythic is to be in a foul mood. Something really pissed me off today mid-way through my Mythic run and after considering abandoning the attempt on the grounds I'd probably just get madder, I decided to just finish the run. And finish it, I did...got lucky with the General and, IMO, the Coms room, but I'll take any luck I can get. :D

And the dodging is no problem if you have more people shooting it in my opinion. I think it's better than wasting all that time on missing with the Plasma Pistol.

I kind of agree. Saving the plasma pistol for use later and just firing at the Focus Rifle Rangers with the Needle Rifle is what I did on my solo runs, since there is more than enough NR ammo in the Hanger. I'd expect hitting them to be much simpler with more than one NR shooting at them too.

Yeah, and we also got a lot of help from Tyrant because he closed the gap between us and shot them with the PP while we shot them with our Needle Rifles. Unfortunately we hit him once and he exploded but it wasn't a real run so...

Hahaha yeah, for just one go we had some great moments.

Like the eject button. A new way to die in vehicles, just drop dead and watch your vehicle keep going.

One thing is clear, you can do it. So keep trying! You think we had a blast when we tried to complete it?

WHA1LEY, A Jazzy Whale, Jol1ywood, WHA1LEY. I changed my gamertag 3 TIMES!!

Doing Campaign on Mythic difficulty is fun, but it can be frustating as well. I always keep track of what mistakes I've made so I won't make that mistake again and finish the mission.

Hi, my name is Stolen_Zombie! My morning routine is to bomb the ocean, eat a house, drink salt water, and kill a zombie. Many people consider me a jack ass because I eat corn flakes, I tell those people to go have sex with a kangaroo. After my morning routine, I rage over beating LNoS on mythic so I can get one step closer to mythic reach completion. I should mention that's after school. My diet is shotgun shells and paper airplanes, nice to meet you!

You'd think after the banshee hospital trick, the mission would be very easy
BUT NO, a banshee ALWAYS kills me every single time
I seriously can't beat new alexandria because of this, am I doing something wrong?

You mean the Banshees you encounter while flying to the different objectives?

From the looks of it I only have Pillar of Autumn left in Mythic.

Achronos: And what's this about a "design team" I've been hearing? Apparently stosh is so awesome he's now considered a "team".

So umm, you guys might find this to be interesting. Halo 2 being done SLASO/Mythic. Outskirts, Metropolis, Delta Halo, Quarantine Zone and Uprising have all been done in single segments.

Note: there are no films of the people getting all the skulls yet as these people are respected speed runners and highly trusted in the community.

@Aura Is it Rob Schnider?
