The Challenges:
Covenant-cide - Kill 120 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking. - 3200cR
A hundred and twenty enemy kills is what you should be hitting on average in Firefight Matchmaking if you are playing the right gametypes. Stick to the Score Attack playlist and aim for gametypes like 2X Score Attack and Gruntpocalypse. Both of these gametypes will get you that a hundred and twenty kills average but be aware that you may fall just short. To finish off the final kills, just play a second game of either two or go for Crashsite if you want to save time, as you can just die to end the game..

There Are Many Like... - Kill 50 enemies with precision weapons in the Campaign today. - 3200cR

After completing "Short, Controlled Bursts" work on this challenge. Hopefully, you will be on ONI: Swordbase or just starting Nightfall as you finish start this challenge. There are precision weapons around everywhere on those two levels. You need to score fifty kill with the weapons (you will likely be using the DMR and Sniper, if you are on Nightfall) and they can be headshots or body shots. Does not matter as long as it is a kill. Your AI teammates can also kill the enemy and you will get credit for it if you first damaged the enemy with a precision weapon.

Short, Controlled Bursts - Kill 100 enemies with automatic weapons in the Campaign today. - 1500cR

Automatic kills are typically easy to come by, though you will likely have a lot less of them than precision weapon kills. Basically, you will need to score kills with either the AR, Needler, Plasma Rifle, Plasma Repeater, or the Brute Spiker. You do not actually even need to put the killing shot on the enemy, as you AI teammates can do that. All you need to do is damage them and the kill counts as yours. I would suggest playing through Winter Contingency on Heroic and then you should be able to transition to the "There Are Many Like..." challenge during ONI: Swordbase.

The House of Blue Leaves - Kill 111 enemies in a single Firefight Matchmaking game on Heroic. - 2000cR

You should have no problem completing this challenge in the Score Attack playlist. On average, you will hit about a hundred and twenty enemies in a single game of Firefight like Gruntpocalypse of 2X Score Attack. That does give you a healthy cushion to complete this challenge and you should have no problem getting it done in a single game. As well, you will likely complete this challenge and "Covenant-cide" at the same time giving a good haul of five-thousand credits. Enjoy.

The Weekly Challenge:
Play to Win - Win 77 games in multiplayer Matchmaking this week. - 20343cR

This will be an irritating Weekly Challenge as it requires you to win seventy-seven games in multiplayer Matchmaking this week. That means you need to win eleven games every day this week on average to complete the challenge. Really, just play in the playlists you enjoy and pick gametypes you excel at. This challenge will require a ton of work so be ready for the long haul. Here are some other helpful tips. First off, play with your friends, as you will be more comfortable with them and will communicate better. Secondly, don't not play in gametypes with more than two teams, which includes free-for-all. The more teams, the lower are your chances of winning. Secondly, stick to gametypes with no more than five players per team. The more players, the more insignificant you may be in the game, and therefore less in control of gaining a win. Remember, eleven a day will do it for this challenge.
