I can't imagine how this would be if you were forced not to skip anything. Halo 3 was doable without skipping but Halo 2?
It's doable but it depends on the level length.

If it's Cairo Station, it's certainly impossible.
If it's Metropolis, it's like The Ark. The beginning is a piece of cake, but getting through the tunnel without doing the feat Monopoli did, that is the level choke point. 3 waves of Covies.

I haven't really played the other levels (except Uprising) extensively but they probably fall under one of these two categories. Either way too long or too long.

Ghost, we all appreciate your advice and insightful responses, but could you please use the edit button to keep responses in a single post rather than multi-posting? It makes things tidier and keeps the forum mods happy.

Sunday at 10 am EST. Like Gazas said, we have more or less a set team, but if I've learned anything from these quad-mythic runs it's that you can always count on at least one planned person not showing up, so be online! We've missed you Leumas!


If Pure Pwnage taught me anything about the gaming stereotypes, it's that most "gamers" don't wake up until 2 p.m.

That being said, have you guys missed Michael? I can be online, but only if I'm needed and appreciated. The last thing I want to do on a Sunday morning is hover around Tyrant's campaign lobby, while I'm full of anticipation--only for you guys to say, "Sorry Michael, lobby's full."

I find separate posts more tidier and easier to manage.

Anyways, no need to tell me that. I'll try to keep the replies contained next time...

More power to you then. It just sucks if suddenly you would have everyone think it's fake, not that that would happen, but imagine a big, big amount of close minded people saying it's fake.

dude, I get people on YT commenting all the time that my runs are fake, and I provide EVERY possible proof that they're legit.

A lot of people are also stupid though...


Posted by: Gazas
Alright, I think I'm gonna lurk some and watch you guys' PoA runs and then attempt to complete my last mission on Mythic.

Do it in 25 minutes and I'll give you a cookie!
:D

On long night the third wave in the pelican gun seems to take forever because the elites get their shields partially down then they go back into cover, recharge and it happens all over again is there any way to do this faster.

The ones that come in immediately after all the Grunts? See my 33:11.


Problem is the gun has fallen off so I can't get out without ruining the mission oh and I guess with enough patience it will fall off because most of the time it just takes awhile before it falls off


As Scoot said, you can often get back in if you leave for a bit. I think it might be on a garbage collection rotation, so it's a combination of time out of it and the next wave coming in that'll make you unable to re-enter.

Though of course, when I first did LNoS, I just sat my ass in there thinking 'no way am I getting out to die! I've come this far!' So, depends how bold you feel I guess.


Speaking of LNoS, I am back to the magical world of Xbox! I had an 11 skull practice run earlier that went pretty well: 27mins 4 deaths.

I'm going to play around with boxes and spawns some more.

Halo Reach 2/3rds of the way mythic conqueror (6/9)

Two worst parts of solace that I have troubles with: cannon room and comms because I can't drop down off the rafter or go out of that space in the upper right without dying. Pain in the butt because it takes forever. Elites stand there in the comms room and elites in cannon room stand below me and forget about me which causes them to recharge.

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

The comms room can be quite iffy. Obviously the rocket strategy has been the most sound so far. The only real problem is when instead of charging over to you, they idle on the opposite side of the room.

Generally speaking, it's really the only two dual wielders you need to be concerned with if. After that, you can take a fair amount of hits from Plasma Repeaters, so if you have shields, you can drop a shield and use the Sword to engage them in a melee fight.

Additionally, if they're on the ground floor and boost up to you, while they're in the air they CANNOT attack you. Use this to your advantage.

Pillar of Autumn in 66 minutes

Damn FRG Brute had me pinned down for what felt like half the run.

But at least I completed it. Doesn't look like I have any more missions left. I thank you all for your films and helpful tips and I'm myself glad that I finally got off my ass and completed my last couple of missions.

With that said, I have now Halo 3, ODST and Reach under my belt!

Yay! Looks like we have ourselves another Mythic Master :-D

On a similar note, we're doing another Quad-Mythic run tomorrow at 10am EST. Right now teams are myself, Sangheilioz, Leumas, and Goose, but if we fall short a player, you'll hear about it in this thread no later than 10:15am EST as well as on my Twitter page.

She found her way to Mythic when we needed a fourth on LNoS. She's new but good at staying alive.

Fifth Halo: Reach Mythic Conqueror

In regards to Team Mythic, I just want to let Tyrant know that I'm available most of the time; my jealous and acrimonious peers would say I have more free time than is healthy. I'm also extremely punctual and I keep to my word i.e. if I say I'll be there at a certain time, I'll be there. On the rare occasion where I can't be there, I'll make sure people know far in advance that I won't be there so they'll be able to accommodate my absence.

On top of that, I'm a Mythic Master. My worst quality is that I'm extremely anxious by nature and the cup of coffee I drink in the morning doesn't help; this leads to spontaneous outbursts--one may call this a "mic spam".

This concludes résumé and my final attempt to weasel my way onto the team.

I did a Blue Angels-like skim across his hull; my shields withstood it; unfortunately, his didn't. XD

Please do not send me "recruitment messages" as I'm not interested in joining any groups currently.

Congrats gazas. I'm glad you finished, I wonder if I'll ever find the inclination to finish it off.

Had a GREAT time today with Sangheilioz and Goose, and FINALLY got to play with RC Master for the first time. It was definitely an honor, sir, and we'd love to have you back on Tuesday if you're game :-)

Long Night of Solace will fall to our might!

Mike, thanks for hanging in there :-) If something comes up, I've got you at the top of my list, bro. Gazas too.
