As the tittle says which is harder im doing it on heroic currently ( i gave up on ledgendary snipers annoy me) and i cant really say which is harder so in your opinion wat is the hardest level for arbiter and hardest for spartan

Halo 2 > Halo 3 > Halo 3 ODST > Halo Reach > Halo CE

Based on campaigns.

Personally I'd say Arbiter

Sacred Icon and Quarantine Zone can be a real killer

Arbiter missions are harder. I only use MC levels to goof around on and get out of the map. But when I play as the arbiter I actually try.

Sutracting Flood levels from the equation,

Chief levels: 90% of levels are against a whopping number of Elites. Very engaging.

Negative aspects: Jackal snipers, Regret. But this is compensated by how Jackal sniper infestations only become a problem on Regret and how Regret had Honor Guard Elites. They are almost as fun to kill as Ultra Elites.

Arbiter levels: 1 level against Heretics, 2 levels against Brutes. Both are annoying enemies.

Negative aspects: Jackals, Brutes, Drones. Damage sponges, annoying concentration of gun fire. No headshots for Drones, hard to get headshots on Jackals. As for the Heretics, freaking needlers and carbine shots are very annoying. And there's hardly any cover!

Ding! Ding! We have a winner: Arbiter levels

I'd rather face 20 Ultra Elites than to have to face Jackals, Brutes, and Drones again.

Does flaming people on forums count as an esport?

Chief. There were more Jackal Snipers for all the chief levels. Also the Arbiter has the camo which adds a whole new element to it, and if used properly can be a huge asset.

i say the Arbiter's missions are the hardest

Yea it was cruel and a pain to get through.

I let Monopoli pick for me. For SLASO, they are even.

He has 8 levels to complete single segment, 4 are MC and 4 are Arbiter. These are the hardest of the hardest levels that he could not complete.

can't think of an arbiter level that was as difficult or more difficult then that part

  • 02.12.2012 2:20 PM PDT

Hanger one I just shredded with the SMGs until ammo was out and I just threw 'nades like a boss while BRing.

My experience playing Cairo Station on Legendary

Arbiter's Campaign was much harder on the higher difficulties. Mainly because you didn't start off, or could find useful human weapons. Although, Gravemind was a pain on Legendary.

i just don't understand how people get through those speed runs, swear i've seen a video where 3 brutes on legendary were taken out with a single PP and the player didn't take cover once!

Looking for clan that isn't too serious? Then join the ODST 501st Airborne Battalion. Go to http://www.501st.forumclan.com for more info.

I think the Arbiter levels are harder, considering all the Flood he has to face.

  • 02.13.2012 8:56 PM PDT

Industrial Strength , No Brain Required.

Arbiter levels, yes because of the Floods but also because Arby doesn't have the lamplight on his helmet, and he is travelling through dark places, so you can't see very well where you are going on.

You could say the same thing about Master Chief and the Brutes. I would have to say that the harder missions are with the Master Chief, but that's just me.

  • 02.23.2012 10:32 AM PDT

I can't choose between those two. They both have their hard and easy levels. I'd say they're equally difficult.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Master Chief hands down.

Regret and Gravemind alone make it harder than the rest of the Arbiter missions.

I'd say MC's missions were harder because the Arbiter missions were easy thanks to the active camo. You could ninja your way around the Arbiter missions and stalk your enemies to death, lol. Though I wish I could killed some humans while as the Arbiter, killing the flood and fellow covenant don't satisfy my need to kill.

true, camo did change the odds of gameplay, especially when evading the flood.
