Halo Reach Daily Challenges Guide - 9/20/11

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

The Challenges:
Blastin' and Relaxin' - Kill 180 enemies in any game mode in Reach. - 2343cR
This challenge will take care of itself today as you will be hitting at least two hundred kills in Firefight Matchmaking today doing the "Hyper Lethal Vector" challenge. So not much at all to worry about for this challenge as it will pop probably in the same game as "Hyper Lethal Vector." Do not worry about it and move on.

Hyper Lethal Vector - Kill 200 enemies with headshots in Firefight Matchmaking. - 3000cR
Two hundred head shots will be really easy to come by in Firefight Matchmaking due to the Gruntpocalypse gametype. Every enemy can be killed with a headshot. The game starts you out with a DMR but there is not unlimited ammunition so you will need to stay near a ammo crate. On average, you can get a hundred and twenty kills a game with this gametype. This means that this will take you at least two games and maybe more depending on how many headshots you get per game. Expect it take two games however and to get this challenge and "Blastin' and Relaxin'" at the same time.

If It Bleeds... - Find and kill the Gold Range-class Elite in any Campaign mission on Normal or harder. - 5000cR
The easiest Gold Ranger-class Elite (otherwise known as a BoB) to kill is on the level ONI: Swordbase. Load up Rally Point Bravo on Heroic difficulty and get to the garage. At the garage, make your way up the ramp and go to the left. There is a chance that you will see a huge Elite dual wielding plasma rifles. He is your guy. Kill him as fast as you can and the challenge should be completed. If he is not there, than he might spawn later on in the level near the shotgun spawn on what would be the multiplayer map. You can sneak by him easily and just assassinate him. There is also a chance that he will not spawn at all, so then you will need to start over.

Make a Wish... - Earn a Running Riot in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 5000cR
This will be the most irritating challenge of the day, but it is good to see these challenges finally get some higher credit rewards. Anyway, Living Dead is the best playlist for this challenge as it is one of the few places these streaks happen normally. For those of you who do not know, a "Running Riot" is fifteen straight kills without a death. You will need to be one of the survivors and probably be on a map like Boardwalk or maybe Swordbase with the regular Zombies gametype, not Alpha Zombies. I have never been extremely good at Living Dead on Swordbase, but I am on Boardwalk so my opinion skews towards it. Try to stick around other survivors to watch your back. As well, be jealous with your kills. You have a limited amount of time to reach fifteen.

  1. Fif...teen. I pulled it off (Living Dead), but you need a lot to go your way. Wow.
    This is the only time where the 12-year-olds and guests are more than just "Paperweight & Friends".

  2. Your instructions for "if it bleeds..." were spot on, but when i found my elite it was platinum, still counted though...i can probably upload the vid if it hasn't been written over.
