The Challenges:
Covenant-cide - Kill 120 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking. - 3200cR
This should just take you a single game of Firefight Matchmaking to complete if you are doing Score Attack. However, I am urging you to play in the Firefight playlist so you can make progress on the Weekly Challenge. Another option is Firefight Doubles which will likely allow you to get these kills in a single game. Now, you also need to be scoring headshots for the "Hyper Lethal Vector" challenge, so do not forget that.


Hyper Lethal Vector - Kill 150 enemies with headshots in Firefight Matchmaking. - 2125cR
Regardless, this challenge will likely take you two games to complete as a hundred and fifty headshots is a lot for one game. I am urging you to play in the Firefight playlist so you can complete more rounds for the Weekly Challenge. Now, Sniperfight is a great option for this as it will start you with the Sniper and allow you to score one-shot headshot kills on everyone, at least through the first round. Arcadefight is an okay alternative, but expect that most people will be using the Rockets or FRG, which will make the Sniper a little too slow to keep up. Arcadefight in Firefight Doubles, with a friend might be a good alternative.

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

We are seeing this one more and more often now but it is actually one of the easier BoBs (Born on Boards or Gold-Ranger Class Elites) to kill. You will want to load up New Alexandria on Legendary difficulty and fly near Club Errera. Hover at around two-hundred meters and wait for a constantly boosting, combat-avoiding Banshee to appear from the Northwest. The amount of time he takes to appear is varying and make take anywhere from five to twenty minutes. The game has to be on Legendary as the BoB will not appear on other difficulties. Video of how to snag this BoB is here on youtube.

The Love of the Game - Complete 20 games in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 4200cR
Yikes! Well, this one is going to suck for anyone who has work, though all the kids on summer break can probably hammer it out. Twenty games will take a while to complete possibly about four to five hours. I do have a few suggestions, however. First off, do not quit, disconnect, or get booted from any games as that will make the game not count. You must complete it from start to finish. Secondly, Team SWAT tends to have faster games since players die faster. This also means that you should be choosing the Slayer gametype when the option comes up. Stay away from objective games types as those will take longer. As well, smaller maps typically have shorter games as well. Finally, take breaks. Do not try to do these all in one sitting.
