Halo Reach Daily Challenges Guide - 5/20/12

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

The Challenges:
Light Fare - Kill 100 enemies in any game mode in Reach. - 3000cR
As you will be playing a bunch of games for the "Flat Tire" challenge, and probably spending a fair amount of time on the "Golden Tree City" challenge, you really do not need to worry about this one. A hundred kills should be well taken care of today as you will be playing a bunch of other games for the aforementioned challenges. Now, you should be well more worried about getting the other challenges done, so go look at them. Seriously, you shouldn't have even read this one. Move on.

Golden Tree City - Find and kill the Gold Ranger-class Elite in a Banshee, fast and low, while on New Alexandria, on Legendary. - 4500cR

So the only Gold Ranger-class Elite (or BoB) in New Alexandria is found flying a Banshee fast and low if you are on Legendary difficulty. This has been known for a while, as this challenge first showed up more than a year ago, I believe, but it can still be hard to find. Hang around the Clue Errera location at a low elevation. Around the five minute mark, this BoB Banshee will appear from the North flying with a constant boost and not stopping to fight you. You will know you got it when the challenge completes. I will actually have a video up of this shortly as it will also help towards the BoB Hunt guide that will be up later this summer.

 Video is now up here.

Flat Tire - Kill 10 enemy vehicles in Firefight Matchmaking. - 2343cR
This challenge is not actually hard, it is just annoying. There are two routes to completing this, however. First off, you can do the Score Attack method which is actually still the easiest. You will need to load up the map Holdout with either the Sniper, Rocket, or FRG Attack playlists and kill the Banshees that spawn on the map every two to four minutes. You will need to make the game last to the very last seconds to try and get as many spawns as you can. You can get up to five vehicle kills, but three is the norm. Do not play in 2X Score Attack as those kills will not count towards this challenge. Expect this method to take three to four games. The other method is to brave Firefight Matchmaking where you will be competing with three other players for the vehicle kills that are available about once a round. As well, vehicle will only appear on certain maps. Beachhead is one of the best. Personally, I will be in Score Attack. As well, destroying a turret with an enemy in it counts as a vehicle kill, but you do not see that very often in Firefight.

Multiplier - Earn 4 multikills in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 2000cR
A multikill in multiplayer Matchmaking is whenever you score multiple kills within four seconds of each other. You can do this with up to ten kills. Now, this challenge is easily completed by playing in the Grifball playlist as multikills are exceedingly common here. I would suggest taking this route as all the other challenges will take up time today and you might as well take the easiest possible route for this one. You can get four Double Kills or even a Killtacular to take care of this challenge. Regardless, you should be able to get all of those multikills easily in Grifball. Good luck.
