The Challenges:
Shootin' and Lootin' - Kill 100 enemies in any game mode in Reach. - 1000cR
Considering that you need to kill a hundred and twenty-five enemies for the "More than a Handful" challenge and two-hundred for the "There Are Many Like..." challenge, I think this challenge of gaining a hundred kills today in any mode is taken care of, don't you think? But seriously, this challenge will be completed by working on the other ones.
More than a Handful - Kill 125 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 2500cR
So a hundred and twenty-five kills in multiplayer is a decent chunk of kills for a single day, however, Grifball is your friend. What you want to do is play some long games of Grifball to really rack up the kills. You have to play five games for the "Credits for Completion" challenge and, with Grifball, you can definitely hit a hundred and twenty five kills in five games. You might also have horribly matched teams and either get spawn camped or have the game end in three very quick rounds. Just a fore-warning.
I am encouraging you to tentatively speed-run Nightfall multiple times for the Weekly challenge. You do not have to speed run it, however. Instead, you can actually play through it once or twice and that would be a fantastic way to get this challenge done. Precision weapons include the DMR, Sniper, Needle Rifle, and I believe the Focus Beam Rifle. Nightfall is a great level in which to get kills with the Sniper, and then the DMR later in the level. It will probably take two playthrough the hit two hundred kills however. But try to stay a little ahead of Jun so he does not steal all you kills.
Credits for Completion - Complete 5 games in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 1250cRI would of liked to have this challenge Saturday instead of the "Win 10 games" that was thrown at us but, alas, we have the challenge now. Now, five games is a relatively low number but you also need to get a hundred and twenty-five kills for the "More than a Handful" challenge. So, keep to long games to ensure that you get the maximum number of kills.
The Weekly Challenge:
Look at Bungie, trying to give us a little trip down memory lane. Unless I am mistaken, this is the very first weekly challenge that was given to the players upon the launch of Halo Reach. I'm pretty sure that most people accomplished this feat by initially playing through the campaign for the first time on Heroic. Looking at it now, I do not see anything saying that the player has to play through all the various campaign mission.
Let me say first, that I have yet to test this, but you can plausibly play the same mission nine times this week and get the challenge. Guess what mission that is? That is right, Nightfall. You can speed-run the level using this LASO guide for the trail. I will be trying this tonight, but for anyone who tries this multiple times, I would love to know if it works. If it does not work, than clearly you will need to play through every level of the campaign, which is not too bad of a task on Heroic.

Just confirmed it. you can do the same level over and over. I actually did mine on Winter Contingency, there is a little trick at the end so I only had to beat the level once. easy weekly challenge.
ReplyDeletethat little "trick" you can do it on nightfall too...that's what i did and the entire 9 completions took under 10 minutes.
ReplyDeleteWinter contingency even with a speed run takes about 12 to Get to the "trick" ;)
