The Challenges:
Shootin' and Lootin' - Kill 250 enemies in any game mode in Reach. - 1875cR
As usual, this challenge will be completed well before you finish all the other three. Going for the fifty infantry-class kills in Campaign will probably net you about a hundred kills and you are going to need to play at least two games of Firefight for the "Hyper Lethal Vector" challenge. That already has you at about three hundred and forty kills. Then add in however many kills you will get from Multiplayer today. Yeah, you should not have a problem hitting two-hundred and fifty.

Cannon Fodder - Kill 50 infantry-class foes in the Campaign today. - 1000cR
For this challenge, you want a level that has a lot of enemies at the beginning. One of the better ones to fit that description is ONI: Swordbase. There are tons of enemies right at the start but you would be surprised at what does not count as "infantry-class." This includes Elites, Jackals, and Skirmishers. So really, this challenge is just telling you to kill fifty grunts. The whole issue of what is a Specialist, what is Infantry, and what is a Leader in Reach is still very confusing, actually.

Hyper Lethal Vector - Kill 150 enemies with headshots in Firefight Matchmaking. - 1125cR
This will require two games of Gruntpocalypse to complete. You can probably hit about a hundred or so head shots in the first game and then you have the second game to mop up the remaining fifty. I prefer smaller maps, like Courtyard or Corvette for this challenge since the games will go a lot faster. You can also try Crashsite for the second game if you really want to save some time.

... Got a Triple Double - Earn 3 Double Kills in the same match in Multiplayer Matchmaking. - 1500cR
This might be one of the challenges to throw a wrench in your day. But, if you pick the right playlist, you should not have a problem at all. The two best playlists for this challenge are Grifball and Multi Team. Not exactly a surprise, but one has a target-rich environment and the other allows you to very easily kill your opponents. Try to go for objective games in Multi Team and do not try to score the ball in Grifball until you have completed the challenge.

Last day to complete the Weekly Challenge. See how to here.
