Subject: I finished TAR on Legendary!!!

Today, I just finished Truth and Reconciliation on Legendary. It was on co-op, but it was still hard. It took me like 2 hours to complete it. Just wanted to let everybody know...

You make it sound like it's hard :P

Right before you get in the ship, and once you get it, are two of the high points in the game, dang that level is wicked fun. Yeah, Legendary is fun as heck.

Has anyone noticed that sometimes there is at least fifteen sword wielding gold armored elites when you first get into the ship(attacking in waves of course). While other times there is only a few.

Too me thats the only frustratingly challenging part. But on coop its fun as hell. *teamate screams*"OMG another one",*Screams again*"ANOTHER ONE".

Hilarious.

There are two groups of people in the world - those that hope, and those that wish. The first group hopes that nothing bad will happen. The second group wishes that they are there when it does. Which one are you?

Yeah, I could only beat the Maw legendary in coop as well. Well worth it though.

Yea, I agree that ToR is the hardest level on Halo:CE on Legendary. If you play it by yourself, it's seemingly impossible to finish it on Legendary if you don't carry the sniper rifle through the entire level.

And yes, Coop on that map is UBER fun.

Try beating it on legendary WITHOUT bringing the sniper rifle into the ship... THAT'S tough... I've never done it.

It's hard, even on co-op. 7 sword-wielding Zealot Elites at the top of the grav lift, I had to hide.

Did you defeat the 7 spec-ops elites? Or did you just skip it?

I fought them. How do you skip that part?

I always make sure to keep all my marines alive in the grav-lift sequence, so hiding isn't an option. Saving them all in the hanger sequence is a bit harder, but I've managed to get all 5 to the control room on ledgendary, where those bastardly invisible elites spoil all my hard work :'(
The key in the grav-lift area is to stick every gold elite right after they see you.They'll spend about three seconds roaring at you, plenty of time to stick and run. But you've gotta be quick or they might chase you and blow you to smitherines.

Wow I always made this level on legendary alone. Of cours I was bringing the sniper rifle but it is not that much good cause you have no ammo when you are out. Yeah hate those stealth elite were just killing my marines from behind and they get to me I was like WTF where are they and --blam-- they hit me if the front, I hit them too and just starting shooting him like hell and then another --blam-- in the back were just an elite charge me up with a sword in the ass. :(. Restart it, just let my marines go before me killing the first elite and after the second and I had like one marines to the end that stay behind, or I just kill them cause if were going in the group of ennemy just in front of us like a stupid ass so when he do that, i just stuck a plasma grenade on him let him run in the group and start shooting after. lol. So hilaring.

It is hard. Congrats. I beat it by myself though >_>. Just saying. Anyways, what makes it easier is to save your sniper ammo, then use it when you go up the lift. Easier than the AR. Oh, you can also use it against the Hunters and stuff before you go into the lift. You should have about 24 rounds.

Zealots and Spec-Ops are not the same. Not by a long shot on Legendary. I never experienced hiding as any good. After I hear the last yell of a dying Marine I can just forget about going back into the main room or they'll hunt me down.

The Plasma Pistol and the sniper got me through that fight. When you get in the TAR.

I still can't beat Two betrayals, that level is hard as Hell.

I think you're talking about the level "Keyes?" On that level, co-op is highly encouraged IMO.

You guys do know that there is sniper ammo scattered all over the covenant ship throughout the remainder of the level right? Even if you go empty, keep the rifle, you will find ammo, just search for dead marines, and it will turn up.

Seeing as one melee from any elite will kill you on legendary, the only big difference between a zelot with a sword and a blue elite is that zelots are ten times more aggressive and charge you immedietly. The reason why I didn't list the health diffrences between the two is that about 99% of the time elites are killed by stickies. (1 hit kill, no difference at all).

I've beaten the whole legendary mode using only the plasma pistol, no overcharge, no shooting from vehicles. If I didn't have a plasma pistol, I didn't shoot. Beating TAR without taking the sniper into the ship is possible. But that was back before Halo 2, when my plasma pistol was incredibly fast.

ToR is the hardest level in Halo C.E on legendary, because its the only level where you don't get the pistol.

l'm proud to say l have beaten both Halo games on Legendary, with no cheats or glitches. Truth and Reconciliation was one of the hardest levels. The part when you first enter the ship is a pain in the ass. There's about fifteen sword weilding elites! And then there's the part when you're in the large ship hanger and you're getting fired on from all three levels! Not easy. The plasma pistol and sniper got me through that.

Co-op is easy. One guy goes kamakize, takes out as many as he can while the other player stays back and lets him respawn. Reapeat until everything's dead. Beat it on single player... THAT'S a feat worth bragging about.

l also wish they didn't take the badged out of Halo 2. Like, when you beat a level in Halo 1 on Legendary, it showed the picture of the head on the plaque with the interlocking swords. That was solid proof. They don't have the in Halo 2, and none of my friends believe l beat it.
