Halo Reach Daily and Weekly Challenges Guide - 6/20/11

Please subscribe above this and/or follow me on twitter! Have any ideas or comments about the challenges? Post them down below!

The Challenges:
Light Fare - Kill 100 enemies in any game mode in Reach. - 1000cR
Between a single game of Griffball, two games of Score Attack, and a run-through of Tip of the Spear on Legendary difficulty, you should have no trouble capturing this challenge in short order. Like we usually do with these challenge, do not worry about it since it is basically just free credits.  Get working those other challenges though, they might take a little bit of time.

T-Hug It Out - Kill 4 enemies with close quarters combat in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 1000cR
A quick game of Grifball will get this challenge done for you very quickly. No need to overanalyze this. Close quarters kill are kills at close range with the Hammer, Sword, a melee, or a Shotgun. You only need four and every kill in Grifball will count for this challenge. Enough said.

Flat Tire - Kill 5 enemy vehicles in Firefight Matchmaking. - 1000cR
You know the drill for this challenge. It will take about two games in Score Attack for this challenge to be completed. Like usual, Sniper Attack on Holdout is your best option since it will spawn two to five Banshees per game. Just make the game last till the very end. Do not try it on 2X Score Attack since, it seems, that the increased damage does not let the Banshee kills count towards the Challenge. Do kill the final enemy though, so you get a full five Waves to go towards the Weekly Challenge.

Deathless Spear - Complete Tip of the Spear on Legendary without dying. - 1800cR
This challenge should not be too much trouble because there is a large amount of fighting on this level that you can simply skip. Use this LASO guide to see where you should go and what you should do. I do not know if this challenge is like the LD challenges where you can die as long as you Save and Quit and then reload the game. But this challenge is doable without having to die. Follow the LASO guide and you should be all set.




The Weekly Challenge:
Ride the Wave - Complete 150 Waves in Firefight Matchmaking. - 12000cR
So, this Weekly Challenge is much more doable than last week. It asks you to complete a hundred and fifty waves in Firefight Matchmaking over the next week. Firefight matches consist of Wave, Rounds, and Sets. Five Waves in a round, three Rounds in a Set, and, at least online, one Set in a game. Now, if you do Score Attack, there will only be on round per game. While you will get more kills this way you will not get as many Waves done. So, I am urging you to play with other people in either Firefight Arcade or Firefight Limited.

A game in Firefight Limited or Arcade is typically a single Set. A Set contains fifteen Waves then. If you look at it, you only need to complete ten Firefight Arcade or Limited games this Week. And you can divide that up however you want. A think to note, however, if you have a large map, make sure you pick a gametype that gives you ranged weapons. Fistfight on Outpost will probably not have you completing all fifteen rounds. As well, the Bonus Round does not count as a wave. Sorry.
