In regards to the end segment, the only Zealot you need to kill is the Field Marshall. The other three can be skipped
Not to rain on your parade Tyrant, but I did this months ago.

You can use it to run right next to the mass driver, then you can jump onto the girder, onto the exterior wall, and over the railing so you're actually standing right next to the mass driver, completely bypassing the Field Marshall. BUT. The trigger for the mass driver sequence is at the bottom of the stairs here, and even if you triggered it, the FM would blast the hell out of you in two seconds flat. So you need to kill him at least. If anyone remembers me mentioning that you don't need to kill the Zealots here: this is how its done. But they will ping you a little, and you'll have difficulty getting here with full shields, and you'll be unable to bring multiple Armour Abilites here, so you'll either have to camp somewhere very dangerous, or go without the Hologram. So I take 'em out.
You can count on 3-5 PPs from the Grunts after the Keyes cutscene and you can bring another with you from before the cutscene. So ammo isn't so much of issue.
You can use the Holo to draw the zealots out if they're cowering behind the pillars a lot.
I just, I don't know why you want to make it more stressful than it needs to be. You can honestly take your time, its not a race, and clear the entire warehouse, shield up, and chill on the stairs without having to crouch awkwardly by the guard-rail and hope the zealots don't hit you too much.
Try not to read the following like I'm attempting to be a prick...
Is there a particular reason why firsties are so important to you? As we've discussed before, if I didn't take it from your run, you aren't getting credit for it in the guide. Even if you found this earlier, this was a method I stumbled across on my own, like many others throughout my Mythic journey. Again, I really don't understand the motive behind these posts. I don't find other Conquerors doing this. No offense.
In regards to why I did my method rather than fighting it out... personally, I found it to be far more stressful to try and hit the constantly dodging dual wielding Zealots then to "crouch awkwardly behind the stairs" and wait for the Cruiser to move into position. Plus it takes far less time, which means if things go south, I didn't waste as much of it. For me, this is an important factor in Mythic since much of the frustration from death comes from the amount of time I've already invested in the mission. The shorter I can make it, the better.
That aside, gratz on the GF thing. The last GF I had thought Halo was a Beyonce song...
