The Challenges:

Covenant-cide - Kill 120 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking.

Your best bet for this is a single game of Firefight.  Score Attack, or the 2X variety, is preferable to Firefight Arcade just so you do not have any competition or other people just being annoying.  Gruntpocalypse typically spawns about a hundred and twenty enemies.  That does not give you a lot of wiggle room, however, in case some Covies kill themselves.

Try for larger maps, like Beachhead, where you have a higher chance of getting a drop pod to land.  An extra four kills will help make up the difference if any of the Grunts do end up going kamikaze.

Reward - 1100cR

Now I have a Machine Gun - Earn 40 kills with automatic weapons in multiplayer Matchmaking.

The best way for me to get Automatic weapons kills (AR, Needler, Spiker, Plasma Pistol, and Plasma Repeater) has always been Multi Team.  All starts, short of Elite Slayer, are automatic weapons and so much damage is being dealt that you can simple spray and pray and rack up kills.

The smaller the map, the better as well.  Countdown, Sword Base, and Pinnacle, to a certain extent, are all good maps so head for those.  Objective gametypes on these maps would be ideal and would allow you to rack up as many kills as possible within the time limit of the game.

Reward - 1300cR

Not as Clumsy or Random... - Earn 5 kills with precision weapons in a multiplayer Matchmaking game.

Any playlist will do for this.  Seriously.  You can even get this while playing Multi Team.  Otherwise, head to SWAT or Team Snipers if you find this difficult.

Reward - 1000cR

Just a Shower - Complete any campaign mission on Normal or harder with Thunderstorm on.

The Thunderstorm skull upgrades all enemies, except Ultras and Generals which cannot be upgraded.  If you keep the game on Normal, Thunderstorm will not make a really big difference.  You can always run through Winter Contingency or Nightfall to get it done fast, or you can do whatever you want.  As well, if you have yet to complete the Weekly Challenge, doing it today will net you this challenge.

Reward - 2000cR

Only two days left to complete the Weekly Long Night of Solace LASO Challenge.  See how to do it here!
