Halo Reach Daily Challenges Guide - 12/17/11

Please subscribe above this and/or follow me on twitter! Have any ideas or comments about the challenges? Post them down below! As a note, I am no longer writing on Examiner.com due to a lack of time.

The Challenges:
Covenant-cide - Kill 120 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking. - 3200cR
A few easy challenges today along with a few grinding challenges. First off is this challenge asking you to get a hundred and twenty kills in Firefight Matchmaking. A typical game in the Score Attack playlist will give you around a hundred and twenty kills. Now this will definitely be dependent on the gametype that you choose, but 2X Score Attack is typically one of the better ways to go as the enemies are plentiful and easy to kill but not as prone to kill themselves. Try for an exterior map as you might get a drop-pod and a few extra enemies to make this a one-game challenge.

This is My Rifle... - Earn 40 kills with precision weapons in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 2600cR
Team SWAT and Team Snipers will always be the go to playlists for any challenge asking for Headshot or precision weapon kills in Halo. The issue for you is which playlist is better for you. SWAT games tend to be faster and involve less, uhh, stationary tactics as Snipers. Both games have one-shot headshot kills which you should be aiming for no matter what. The SWAT game are shorter games which means more kills per your time playing, but you will need some faster reflexes. Forty kills should take you about three to four games.

Killagruntjaro! - Earn 35 multikills in a Firefight Matchmaking game. - 1750cR
You will hopefully get this challenge while working on the "Covenant-cide" challenge. A multikill in Firefight Matchmaking is when you score consecutive kills within about a second of each other. You will get a "multikill" counted for every multikill medal you earn. You should be scoring tons of these in Firefight and this is another reason I urge to play 2X Score Attack as the kills are so easy to come by that multikills happen all the time.

Deathless Package - Complete The Package on Legendary without dying. - 4400cR
We had this challenge on Wednesday so I will just reiterate what was already said: Like all of these "Deathless" challenges, you do not have to actually complete it without dying. What you need to do instead is to play through the level on Legendary with no skulls on and die as much as you want. Once you get to the last objective, which is hitting the switch to enter Halsey's lab, you will Save and Quit the game. Resume Campaign and hit that button to complete the challenge. Here is the LASO guide which has some useful strategies for getting through the level in general.
