So despite Halo 2 being my first fps and possible my favorite video game every I never played it on legendary except for the final level once with a friend (took us at least 5 hours). So I've decided that this quarter at college I will complete a solo legendary run. I've beaten the first two levels in about 3 hours today but I know that they were always the easiest levels for me.

I'm hoping someone can give me some ideas or tips or just advice for how to complete the whole game.

And if you don't have any tips please discuss your experiences with solo legendary I'm sure I'll learn something anyways.

Thanks

My best advisement to you would be to take it slow, seriously. Although it takes a long time, you save yourself considerable time by strategic planning rather than knee-jerk rushing the enemy.

Whenever engaging an enemy, weigh your odds. Never attempt to combat an elite with any non-certified CQB weapons. (IE: Unless you have the sword or (maybe) the shotgun, stay 100 feet away.)

ALWAYS hide. Unfortunately, you must do this whenever you don't have FULL CHARGED shields. Otherwise, you will have little chance.

Lastly, as you may know, there are a TON of glitches in game and you could probably beat every level merely by using a stairway. (Figuratively.) The previous advise is of course if you want to win like a spartan wins.

"No Mission Too Difficult, No Sacrifice Too Great—Duty First!" - The fighting first's motto.

Losing internet 9/7/2012 until i don't know when. See you starside folks.


Fada beo Halo 2!

First, when you spawn with a Battle rifle, drop your secondary and grab a Plasma pistol, if you over charge the elites their shields go out and you finish them with one headshot.
And on flood levels, don't stay around to fight the flood, run on through, when you find the right place.
