I've never played Halo CE or Halo 2's campaign. Beaten Halo 3, ODST and Reach on Legendary with little to no problem. Going in balls to the wall. No tips or strategies. Wish me luck. :)

Plasma weapons are more useful than human for killing Elites and Sentinels.

No tips or strategies.

Play on tube television for vastly superior experience.
Zoom in on spent shotgun cartridge with sniper rifle for hippo.
Use only needler against hunters for massive win.
Frog blast the vent core.

Wish me luck. :)
If "luck" is measured in such a way as to be approximately normally distributed (quite likely, considering that luck in a playthrough depends on many instances of small-scale luck having an influence), then there's a roughly 95% chance that yours will fall within two standard deviations of the population mean.

AKA: "TSB Lurch"

Over charged Plasma Pistol for Elite & Jackel Shields without question. Human Pistol for the headshot, and lots of grenades.

Except when fighting Sentinels.

Name's John. I'm a 21-year-old firefighter/EMT from lolhio who doubles as a die-hard Halo fan. I've been enjoying the franchise since 2001. My favorite iteration of Halo would have to be Halo 2 simply because I never got to experience the joy of a full-on Halo: CE LAN.


If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Oh yeah, and boot Zome.

Tip? When I did my first Legendary Halo: CE (which has the hardest campaign, in my opinion) attempt, there were was only one thing I learned was a feasible option when in a jam:

SPRINT YOUR ASS!!!!!!

/cruisecontrol

I ended up running through about 1/3 of the encounters in that game the first time, except The Library. There I fought everything as it came because I didn't want to get surrounded.

To me Halo CE was the easiest and Halo2 was the hardest. Good luck!

I never bothered with most of Halo 2 on Legendary. Just the first and last levels.

Basically everything was a 1-hit-kill. No fun to fight against something that you don't have a chance against.

The funny thing is, that outside of the first two levels Halo 2 was easy as pie.
