Three levels down, ten to go. A special thanks goes out to womyfts for the advice. Although I couldn't find the Gauss Warthog, I did manage to take out one of the Wraiths with a regular Warthog behind the trees, and that certainly did help. Once the Phantom came, I hid behind the structure from where you first come onto the road. The Phantom was just hovering around, so I stayed back because I didn't want to get killed again. Ultimately, I just decided to drive past the Phantom, and for some reason, the other two Wraiths were gone, so I was easily able to advance. Since I was hiding the whole time, I couldn't see anything going on. Does a Pelican appear at any time? I'm still trying to figure out why the two Wraiths just suddenly disappeared. Maybe it had to do with me staying in the same area for a prolonged amount of time? I honestly have no idea...
Anyways, the most difficult part for me was the area in the tunnel where you get out of the Scorpion and have to advance on foot. I kept getting sniped by those damn Jackals, until I memorized their spawns. Even after that, I had problems, because two invisible Elites kept killing me. It took me a few tries to finally figure out where they were hiding, lol. After that, everything in that area was easier.
The part immediately after the tunnel (in the courtyard) was also very challenging. I swear, I think I sniped at least ten Jackal Snipers in that area alone. If they saw me first, I would be absolutely screwed. Not only that, but then two Ghosts came into the courtyard. Once I sniped the pilots out of the Ghosts, my heart was pounding, because I thought for sure that a Jackal would come out of nowhere and snipe me. Fortunately, there were no enemies left in that area, and getting that checkpoint was one of the greatest things ever, lol.
Anyways, time to play as the Arbiter on The Arbiter. I honestly can't remember which parts are difficult, and right now, the only thing that really comes to mind is the Banshee part towards the end. Are there any snipers in this mission? I can't remember exactly, but I feel like there aren't any Jackals in this mission, but I also feel like there might be some Heretic Elites with Particle Beam Rifles. Can't remember, either way...2 Pelicans appear, one drops off more Marines and the other has the Scorpion. They come right after the checkpoint you get when the Phantom flies off. The Pelicans lay waste to the Wraiths.
Some checkpoints are golden. The Gauss Hog is driving around in a circle in that round area after the tunnel.
The Arbiter was hard for me until I discovered how devastating double needlers are.
