The Challenges:
Covenant-cide - Kill 120 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking. - 3200cR
A typical game of Firefight Matchmaking in the Score Attack playlist will typically allow you to get about a hundred and twenty kills. You will need to likely play more than a single game today as the "Flat Tire" challenge always requires more than a single game and then you will likely not be able to complete "J.H. Death Challenge" in the same game as the "Flat Tire" challenge. A hundred and twenty kills is the least of your worries.


Flat Tire - Kill 5 enemy vehicles in Firefight Matchmaking. - 2000cR

Hopefully, you will be able to complete this challenge in a single game but possibly not. You have two routes for this. You can either try for it in the Score Attack or in the Firefight Arcade playlists. For Score Attack, Banshees will spawn regularly on the Holdout and Installation 04 maps but you will need to be on Sniper, Rocket, or FRG Attack. Expect it to take two games with that strategy. The Firefight Arcade strategy will require you to play a game on the map Beachhead where regular vehicles drop regularly. You will have to compete for these vehicle kills though, which might make the Score Attack method more appealing.

J.H. Death Machine - Kill 70 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking with the Grenade Launcher. - 1250cR

You should be able to complete this challenge in a single game in the Score Attack playlist and you will want to pick the 2X Score Attack gametype. One of the five loadouts will feature the Grenade Launcher. In 2X Score Attack, the Grenade Launcher is exceedingly deadly due to its increased kill radius. Hitting enemies while they spawn will allow you to get some nice multikills on stationary targets. You only need to get seventy kills with the Grenade Launcher so feel free to switch to a different weapon after you have complete the challenge to speed things up.

The Magic Number - Complete 7 games in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 3000cR

For this challenge, your just need to complete games, you do not need to win any games, which is a relief. Your best challenge to complete this challenge is to find the games which are fastest to complete. I would aim for games in playlists like Team SWAT or Living Dead. Team SWAT will be fast as long as you are on a small map. Large maps will have you in for a long game. Living Dead, on the other hand, has been sped up significantly since the introduction of Alpha Zombies. Pick your poison, though I would play whatever I wish if I have the time.

The Weekly Challenge:
Your Daily Dose - Complete all of the Daily Challenges for a given day. - 20343cR

Well, this will be pretty much the easiest Weekly Challenge that you will ever need to worry about as all the other Daily Challenges you will complete today will take care of this challenge for you. The challenge asks you to complete all the Daily Challenges in a single day. That is it. All you need to do is complete all four challenges today and the challenge is yours. You can do this any day this week and complete the challenge. Just do not worry about it.
