This is an effing excellent post. No one should consider this cheating. There's no way someone's going to max their campaign commendations and still have fun playing the campaign. The requirements for max are absurdly high.

Thanks this helped a lot

on new alexandria get a pelican put a marine in the turret and leave it for like 5 houra while u sleep and you get tons of credits.
marine kills banshees and instead of the falcon you will get credits while doing this in a pelican

well... i think farming is lame, and for noobs who have nothing better to do. is exploiting the game to farm minor credits really better to you than playing the game to gain your credits?

on a lighter note, since it doesn't affect me, i try not to be a hater, i just think its tacky that nobody seems to be able to play the game legit.

that being said, your post here is awesome. you have efficiently and effectively covered everything to cover. its an admirable guide.

perhaps in a year when i still have campaign commendations at gold and i tire so badly of halo reach that i feel the need to ruin its replayability by farming the kills i can't earn legitmately, perhaps then, i'll come back to this guide.

First: people who farm ARE playing the game.

Second: people who farm have already played and beaten the game AT LEAST once, if not multiple times (like myself).

Third: people who farm also play plenty of online games (again, like myself).

Lastly: people who farm are actually more dedicated to this game than anyone else, because they want to "complete" everything and anything, and they know beating a campaign mission on legendary without dying 300 times is not going to happen any sort of "natural" way. Not in the lifetime of the game, anyway (which is expectedly, 3 to 5 years, piqued... maybe more for "nostalgic" value).

So before you go criticizing people for it, maybe you should try to understand it from other people's perspective. It could potentially save you from looking like an idiot.

No one is doing it for cR. Its for completing commendations quickly and effectively without wasting my life and not even having fun headshotting thousands of things and blowing up thousands of vehicles or rerunning the same level until my eyes bleed.

And thats the point, I'm never going to re-run the same stuff so much, so I make it easy.

Take it back.

I can't get nice arm how can I time it right?

  • 11.21.2010 3:04 PM PDT

Me, I never lie, even when I tell the truth.

Another method for Leadership Element... splatter the 7 Elite Generals on The Package. ;)

  • 11.21.2010 7:41 PM PDT

hmmmm

I think Bungie has patched against Farming.

I have been working on "Small Arms" and after I Revert 3 times, I get thrown back to Rally Point Beta.

Is anyone else having this problem or is it just my disc misreading?

  • 11.21.2010 11:38 PM PDT

I have found a better way to get Grenade kills.

Similar to the small arms one. Start at rally point alpha and get your plasma pistol. With Tilt on of course. Hit em 2-3 times depending on their class. And make sure you pick up 2 plasma grenades. If you watch him in the vid he gets around 7 in a row everytime with the plasma pistol. That's 7 grenade kills per checkpoint. I found it SOOO much faster than the first grenade technique which is more difficult to pull off that this.

Make a video of it. If you manage to get 4 a second, grats.

Nice Guide, I have to say you really put work into this. But I have to agree with whoever said it, farming is zzzzzzzzzzzzzz. I don't see how it makes you "more dedicated". Doing the same thing every 25s would make me depressed to be honest. I don't care if you do it, but I can't understand why, I think playing with real people is far better than repeating the same checkpoint for 6 hrs. Just my opinion.

  • 11.23.2010 1:06 PM PDT

I may have a great find for the super soldier commendation.

I started trying to improve the War Machine one, when I realised you can also splatter the banshees.. combine this with the dodge from the spacecraft (the UP dodge to be exact) and you got yourself 4 sprees in 1 second.

Killing Spree
5 Splatter
10 Splatter
15 Splatter (this one varies, sometimes you get 14-15-16 splatters)

I can post a movie but this shouldnt be all that hard to figure out with the available material, I'll check back later.

Good Luck!

  • 11.23.2010 3:04 PM PDT

I just wanted to point out for the Pinpoint and Precisely one on The Package where you wait for the grunts to come to you by the bridge, you can also throw a grenade for the other commendation. It works for me.

When using that video to get "Flawless Cowboy", do you have to start at the beginning of the mission AND not die?

yes

simply amazing. I already knew about ONI, but was absolutely dreading almost every other commendation...especially assists. Now assists still seem quite daunting, but thanks to you everything has become possible. Thank you sooo much and don't stop being amazing.
