The Challenges:
More than a Handful - Kill 77 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 3000cR
Well, multiplayer, multiplayer, multiplayer seems to be the theme of today as every challenge, including the Weekly challenge, is supposed to be done in multiplayer Matchmaking. It is my hope that seventy-seven kills in multiplayer Matchmaking today is well taken care of due to the other challenge. The "Put You Quarter Up" and "Who's the Big Winner?" challenges both have you playing at least fifteen games today. Clearly, even if you only average about five to six kills a game, that challenge will be completed. Just do well in those games and you should be all set.

Go Right Ahead Folks - Earn a First Strike in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 2000cR
A First Strike in Reach is awarded when you score the first kill of a round in any game. That is right, "round" not game. This means games with multiple rounds, like Grifball, Living Dead, 1-Flag CTF, etc., give you multiple chance to score a First Strike and are your best options for this challenge. What gametype you choose is entirely up to you, but my recommendation are on Grifball since the games can be won easily with a good team and are short, therefore helping with the "Who's the Big Winner?" challenge.

Put Your Quarter Up - Complete 15 games in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 2750cR
This challenge is a toss away and no guide is needed. It is, actually, just supplementary credits for the "More than a Handful" challenge. You will, at least, need to play fifteen games to win fifteen games for completing the other challenge takes care of this one. Seriously, nothing to see here move on.



Who's the Big Winner? - Win 15 games in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 3500cR
This one will be the hardest of them all and should be worth well more than three-thousand credits. Fifteen games is an immense number of games for most people to win in a single day. Here are some tips to help you along. Pick gametypes with no more than two team of five players. This way you offs are better and you are more of a factor. Next, take breaks as try to do this all in one sitting will cause serious aggravation. It also just is not healthy. Try to play in gametypes you already do well in and that you enjoy. Now would not be the time to discover which new gametypes irritate you the most. Finally, try to play with friends as you will likely perform better with them.

The Weekly Challenge:
Camp Froman, Indead - Earn 300 kills with Precision weapons in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 28343cR

I am amazed that this challenge, being not all that hard, warrants an almost thirty-thousand credit reward while completing one of the more difficult levels on LASO difficulty only warrant thirteen thousand. It sure boggles my mind. Anyway, Precision weapons in Reach include the DMR (Designated Marksman's Rifle), Needle Rifle, Sniper Rifle, and the Covenant Beam Rifle. Team SWAT and Team Snipers will give you very easy access to DMR and Sniper Rifle kills, respectively. Three hundred kills is about forty-five kills is day which is very easy to obtain in the above-mentioned playlists. Likely, you can get even more than that done per day and get ahead of the curve for this challenge.
