The Challenges:
Covenant-cide - Kill 120 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking. - 3200cR
Hopefully you will have no issue with this challenge today thanks to "The T.G. Opposition" challenge. Done below I am urging you to play Arcadefight so you can easily get Shotgun kills but there is a chance that you will end up just short of the a hundred and twenty kills needed for this challenge. If that does occur, I would recommend loading up a game of Crashsite in the Score Attack playlist. This will allow you to get the few kills and then end the game legitimately by dying or letting the generator explode. Your choice.

The T.G. Opposition - Kill 40 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking with the Shotgun. - 2000cR
Due to this challenge, requiring that you get shotgun kills in Firefight Matchmaking, I am urging you to play in the Score Attack playlist and choose the gametype Arcadefight. In Arcadefight, you have five different loadout option and one of them features the Shotgun. Forty kills will be easily done in a single game and I would recommend getting it done at the beginning where there is more likely to be weaker enemies. Try to get a small map to make this even easier because the Shotgun is a short range weapon and useful very close up. You should have this done in a single game.

Put Your Quarter Up - Complete 15 games in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 2750cR
Well, it is the final day of the Weekly Challenge from hell (for some of us) and 343i seems to be assuming that all of us who do not yet have it done will be going all out to get it done. Well, I will not because I have work. But, if you are following the Weekly plan and still have eleven to go, then this challenge is likely right up your alley. I only have two suggestions for this challenge. First off, stay away from objective games as they tend to go on a lot longer than slayer games. Secondly, take breaks. You should never, ever, ever be sitting for that long as it is not healthy and can lead to the creation of Kidney stones. Trust me, I had one.

Roast 'em, Toast 'em - Kill 10 enemies while jet-packing in Exodus on Normal. - 2400cR
Well, at least it is not thirty five kills while jet-packing like it was before. Isn't it odd, however that twenty-five less kills is only worth six-hundred less credits? Now, the trick to scoring kills while jet-packing is that you need to actually be using the armor ability when the kills is scored. It doesn't matter what you were doing when the grenade was thrown, but what you are doing when it explodes. Falling or just being in the air does not count as a kill while jet-packing either. Load up Exodus from Rally Point Alpha and you should be all set.
