Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

library is actually one of the easier levels as far as i'm concerned. however there is on part that is difficult and that is about half way through it when you get stuck between two blast doors waiting for the monitor to open on of them and the flood come at you from both sides of the room. that is really the only part i ever die in.

Yeah, the Library is pretty fun on legendary.
I find Truth and Reconciliation to be harder.

The Library is the easiest level if you know how to play it smart. Don't put yourself in a position to be surrounded. Watch the radar for movement and act accordingly and remember that the Flood is attracted to sounds of gunfire. If you're getting swarmed then retreat and bottleneck them around a corner or doorway.

when you get stuck between two blast doors waiting for the monitor to open on of them and the flood come at you from both sides of the room. that is really the only part i ever die in.
You can hide in the corner and wait for the Monitor to return. When the doors open the Monitor will bring Sentinels to fight the Flood that will amass in that room. You can slip out without even firing a shot.

The last part is the hardest, I don't care what you say.
The last part is the easiest fight IMO. When you get close to the door it will begin to open revealing a huge army of Flood forms on the other side. If you retreat before they see you then they won't pursue. Just peak out at your convenience, carefully aim a toss and nade spam them until they'll notice you then retreat around a corner. The Flood will bottleneck themselves on the corner making them easy targets for a shotgun and grenade. Once that's done pistol the three remaining Flood targets inside and head for the index. Flood should begin to spawn as you approach your objective so instead of shooting them you can simply evade them. Circle around the index by crouch jumping over the low walls until you come back to your starting point. The Flood should be scattered all over the level trying to pursue you so it shouldn't be a problem to walk over to the index and end the level.

I play on co-op, and I consider the opposite. Truth and Reconciliation is easy, but the Library is hard.

I've played it many times through solo and co-op legendary and the hardest part for me is the last part. You think it's clear to run to the index and bam! there's another wave of covie crawling out of the woodwork. The part where you get trapped between the two doors is actually kind of easy with the right weapons and some well timed grenades.

The easiest legendary levels are POA and Maw, imo.

I repeat, sing along with me, I run the streets the streets don't run me.

You just need a pistol and a shotgun. You are good.

Yeah, l don't know what you're talking about. l found the Library easiest actually. WAY easier then, say, Truth and Reconciliation.

In high definition baby!

My friend and I beat the Library on Legendary years ago. I still remember it. The hardest part when there was many infection Floods and combat Floods. When the combat Floods took my energy shields down, the infection Flood just jumped me and start eating me! "Get it off, ahhh, get it off!"
