I sent you a message describing the Super Soldier boost in better detail. In short, just splatter the Banshees on Long Night of Solace instead of shooting them. 3 spree medals every restart. You can knock out War Machine, Right of Way, and work on Super Soldier pretty efficiently.

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

There is a focus rifle you can get after Rally Point Alpha. I just noticed that in your post, it says the focus rifle is right at the start of the level.

In the room inside ONI, on that first platform, you'll find one.

Is there a fast way to revert or do I have to keep pressing start every time?

I have the Target Locator Killing Frenzy in 3 Missiles on my file share here http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Reach/FileDetails.aspx?fid=826468 4&player=Gibtafeno101

It took me 70 minutes to get this checkpoint. The first 40 minutes I spent trying to check point in a different spot then 30 minutes in this spot. Reasons it took so long are this

1. It wouldn't checkpoint at all
2. It would checkpoint too late
3. I wouldn't get a Killing Frenzy
4. I would die to a grenade

Honestly getting this check point is determined on how much you are willing to frustrate yourself into getting it.

Yeah, just takes patience and luck.

I haven't ventured into Campaign since Co-op came out since they stopped Commendation Progress earlier on.

Are you guys getting "credits per incident" on your Campaign Commendations once they hit Silver or higher?

Example - Killing a grunt with a headshot using the pistol would net: 2 cR for the grunt, 3 cR for killing it with a headshot, and another 2 cR for using the pistol. A grand total of 7 cR for the "incident"

used to, but once you hit silver you get nada

Is it that way in both Campaign and Campaign Co-op?

I got the impression from the Update (nearly a month back I'd guess) that it was going to be a temporary fix until Co-op Campaign came out and then you would get "credits per incident" again. Is it just considered the new norm that they stop giving out at Silver?

cept it was like that before the update happened, it's been like that since launch once you hit silver you stopped getting the points for each thing.

If you want to afk farm for Mobile Asset & Right of Way, fire up New Alexandria, complete all the steps to get the Pelican except the last, drop off a marine at Club Erra, get your Pelican, pick the marine up, position the Pelican horizontal, but high-ish up in the air. The marine will shoot at Banshees for you, and it treats it as your kill.

Send me a message if you want more details.

Coming soon: http://dpadawan.com/

The "Nice Arm" trick works just as well & a bit faster on "Long Night of Solace", mission start.

You have to kill off everyone on the hill just before the base. Then go up the hill, wait for the drop-ship to come in, and right as it's dumping out the enemies, toss a grenade down the beach in their direction, and walk backwards over the checkpoint mark (which you should be directly in front of before throwing the grenade). That way, you can get the checkpoint JUST before the grenade goes off. And if you aimed well enough (it takes practice and quite a few tries), you can get an overkill, or a killtacular if you're lucky. Then, revert to last save, repeat.

It's far trickier to do, but I've done it once. I never continued to farm it though. I will try again tomorrow, however, and see how well it works.

It also works, unlike the Nightfall way, towards Cannon Fodder, AND SpecOps (I believe), AND Walking Tank,
AND Leadership Element (if you're lucky).

You can achieve the same effect with stealing the Marine's rocket launcher, firing it, and walking backwards over the checkpoint before the rocket hits. It doesn't get as many kills as the ONI Sword Base trick with the target locator, but the time you save by not having to walk from behind the pillar on ONI, charging the locator, waiting for the missiles, etc., makes up for it. You can get 15-18 kills in a matter of 3 seconds, rather than 10-15 seconds.

Bungie doesn't see gamers any more. They see walking credit cards.

I think I found a pretty decent area for Nice Arm(grenade kills).

While farming Long Night of Solace(thanks for the pro movie + farming spot for Banshees), I decided to finish the level.

Once you put the Corvette on the refueling track, you have to defend the area for a little bit.
One of the waves is a group of 6 grunts that come from the opposite side of the bridge.

The checkpoint triggers as soon as the door opens, so all you have to do is throw the nade(I was using stickies), wait for it to blow up, and than you get 6 kills.

I know it isn't like the other one you have posted where you throw the nade than get the checkpoint, but if you set it up right, all you need to do is throw the nade than revert.

I can get a video if you want too, just pm me.
