Halo Reach Daily and Weekly Challenges Guide - 2/14/11

Please follow this blog and/or follow me on twitter!

The Challenges:

Shootin' and Lootin' - Kill 250 enemies in any game mode in Reach. - 2500cR

• You should be able to get this done pretty quickly.  Play two games of score attack and do the two multiplayer challenges and this will be done.

That Pink Mist - Kill 70 enemies with a Supercombine from the Needler or Needle Rifle in Firefight Matchmaking. - 1000cR

• Go to Score Attack and pick FRG fight.  This will start you with a Fuel Rod Gun and a Needler.  Ammo is unlimited so spam away.  This might end up taking you two games, which is fine.  Just try to get as many as you can in the first game.  Pick smaller maps, like Courtyard, Corvette or Holdout.
• Update: Score Attack is terrible for this.  Whether it is a lower difficulty level or increased damage, a lot of the enemies die before the supercombine kills them.  Head to Firefight Arcade.  It will probably still take two games.  Go for Sniper Fight or FRG Fight.

You Want This, Don't You? - Earn 12 kills with precision weapons in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 1500cR

• We have seen this one recently.  Just head to Team SWAT or Snipers and this should be done in a jiffy.  Really, it is that easy.

Vengeance Found - Earn your 'Revenge' in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 1150cR

• To get a revenge medal, you must die and then kill the person who killed you before anyone else does.  SWAT has its pros and cons for this challenge, but you should not have much trouble getting it.  This can really be done in any playlist.  If the person just killed you, remember that unless they are holding a shotgun or sword, they will not be staying still.  They will move and you need to anticipate their movements and nail them before someone else does.

Weekly:

Ride the Wave - Complete 200 Waves in Firefight Matchmaking. - 15000cR

• So, in Firefight the progression is done in three phases; Sets, Rounds, and Waves.  A set consists of three rounds and a rounds consists of five waves.  Score Attack does one round, which is five waves whereas Firefight Limited and Arcade does a full set which is fifteen waves.  So forty games of Score Attack, fourteen of Firefight Arcade or Limited, or a combination thereof.  In seven days this will be easy, especially if there are days with lots of Firefight challenges.
