I'm gonna say The Covenant, because it's so long. Possibly the best level though

The Covenant to me was not easy at all. The 2 Scarabs pissed me off so much where I was about to snap the disc in half.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Tsavo Highway and Cortana were the levels I found particularly tricky. And by tricky I mean downright impossible at some sections.

I did the Covenant on legendary with 3 deaths on my first try, then again it is my favourite level and I've played it a thousand times over.

Ha yeah, I know the feeling. As one of the levels I managed to complete SLASO, I still have no idea how I got out of the scarab part alive

And since Cortana was confusing, I gave up. I'm sending Halo 3 back to GameFly.

I am the predator clown I will find you.

Cortana was so tough I don't want to play that by myself on legendary.

I'm sure this is a joke, but just to be sure: this is a joke right?

dont be a sissy.

I have to say Cortana with her and the grave mine talking to you half the level and the flood on the roof that you cant hit with the flamer and the elite flood that dont die

HARD
(but i did it on legendary with my dad)

  • 11.14.2010 8:13 AM PDT

Use a BR and a plasma rifle.That usually works for me on legendary.

I found Tsavo highway,kind of frustrating on legendary.

No. When I got Halo 3 ODST, I hated the campaign. I compared it with Reach's(Which is one of the best Halo campaigns BTW) and A lot of my friends gave me warnings saying "Halo 3 could be a bit too tough for you." I didn't trust them and this is what I get. After Call of Duty 2 ships to my house, I'm sending Halo 3 back.

I had brief trouble on Tsavo highway. It was near the end. I stole a Wraith earlier in the level and the Brutes keep on throwing their grenades and energy drains.

  • 11.14.2010 10:10 AM PDT

Contana for me because it was hard to find the path sometimes and Id get turned around, stuck against something and killed alot. And I hate pink/purple levels.

  • 11.14.2010 12:37 PM PDT

Tsavo Highway for sure.


Cortana isn't actually very difficult, it's just that playing it in a normal fashion requires you to stand around waiting for the flood to come to you; there are numerous places where the only way to get through them without using insane speedrunning tactics is to stand around and repeat a certain action 90 times until every flood pure form is toast. Which is boring and stupid. But that doesn't mean it's hard.

Cortana. I charged in without watching the Mythic strategy guides and I got -blam!-. I once got a checkpoint after wasting active camo and I had to restart the level.

Here's a list of other levels I found difficult:

Crow's Nest (hangar fight is frustrating)
Tsavo Highway (I used to play it safe and used the Wraith and sniper rifle to kill the enemy Wraiths)
The Storm (the warehouse fight was frustrating, which is why I hate the level)
The Ark (not really difficult, just too long and some frustrating moments)

Imho, The Covenant is the easiest Halo 3 level. Mission Start can be bypassed within 10-15 minutes.

Rally point alpha isn't really that hard. It just takes some preparation.

Rally point bravo can also be bypassed within 10-15 minutes. The fight with the Scarabs can be difficult... if you approach the one on the left. I can't time it correctly so I always approach the one on the right. I find it is more easier to retrieve the Hornet after destroying it's core.

Revelation is easy.

Part 1: Headshot the Grunts that are nearby and the Heavy Grunts. Then melee Arbiter until his shields go down. Arbiter is most effective at this part.

Part 2: Use Active Camo to bypass Brutes. Propel yourself to the other side and trigger cutscene or do my preferred method: four Arbiters glitch.

Cortana was so damn confusing. I swear I was trying to get out of one of the atria of High Charity for like ten solid minutes.

Cortana, on Legendary, for all Eternity

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

Cortana, easily. Probably the only difficult Halo 3 level, especially on Legendary.

But The Library in Halo CE was even more of a -blam!-.

I would like to be a Mythic Member, or a mod.

REALLY BAD. I believe I deserve it, I am very loyal to the dear Bungie forums and want to keep everything in tip-top shape. Its always a real pleasure to be on the forums and I want to be recognized here.

Covenant for me.

I broke one of the cords for my X11s because I couldn't get past the final American course in Doritos Crash Course.

I would say Cortana, the first big pack of Brutes on Crow's Nest was a pain too.
