Halo Reach Daily Challenges Guide - 7/21/12

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

The Challenges:
Shootin' and Lootin' - Kill 400 enemies in any game mode in Reach. - 4000cR
So, I am assuming that no one is really balking at the four-hundred kill count for this challenge because it can be done in any game mode in Reach. The other challenges today will likely get you around a hundred and eighty to two hundred plus kills but will not get you to the four hundred needed for this challenge. After completing all of the other challenges for today, I would jump into Firefight and do some custom challenges. Might as well get some more credits out of it.

Killagruntjaro! - Earn 25 multikills in a Firefight Matchmaking game. - 3000cR
This should be one of the easiest challenges today and you will be best able to complete it in the Gruntpocalypse gametype of the Score Attack playlist. Now, a multikill is rewarded in Firefight Matchmaking when you score multiple kills within about one second of each other. You can get up to ten (a Killionaire) but it is a waste after that. Now, Gruntpocalypse is best for this because the enemies are really easy to kill and can be killed as they spawn via grenades with relative easy. Should take a single game, but be prepared for two.

Now I have a Machine Gun - Earn 60 kills with automatic weapons in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 2350cR
As you should know, automatic weapons in Halo Reach include the AR (Automatic Rifle), Needler, Plasma Rifle, Plasma Repeater, and the Brute Spiker. Definitely more heavily favoring Covenant in terms of variety, but the AR is probably the most common weapon in Reach. In terms of strategy, try to poach kills when you can, especially from melee battles. Playlist wise, your best bet is probably the Multi Team playlist as there will be a bunch of kills for everyone. Just try to actively focus on using whatever automatic weapons you get (You will likely start with the AR) but definitely expect this to take five to six games or more to complete. Good luck sprayin' and prayin'.

The Magic Number - Complete 7 games in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 3000cR
To be honest, I was really expecting this challenge to be a "win # games today" but it seems that we lucked out. It will probably show up tomorrow knowing our luck. Either way, you need to go for sixty kills with automatic weapons today in multiplayer and that will definitely help this challenge along. If you have completed "Now I have a Machine Gun" and still needs to get some games played, I would recommend gametypes like Living Dead or Grifball as they tend to be some of the fastest games.
