Halo Reach Daily Challenges Guide - 8/8/12

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

The Challenges:
More than a Handful - Kill 125 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 2500cR
A hundred and twenty-five kills in multiplayer Matchmaking is a pretty solid day of playing, depending on what playlists you typically inhabit. I would expect this to take about ten games in normal playlists, five or so in ones like Grifball. Now, we do not know what challenge is going to replace "Linked up with Bungie.net" and it may very well be a multiplayer Matchmaking one or it may be Firefight or Campaign. If it is multiplayer Matchmaking, do the new challenge and then this one, so these a hundred and twenty-five kills will be a lot easier.

Killagruntjaro - Earn 10 multikills in a Firefight Matchmaking game. - 1100cR
This is a pretty easy challenge, hence the low credit value from 343i. A multikill is earned in Firefight Matchmaking whenever you score multiple kills within one second of each other. The most you can get in one grouping is nine and then it has to reset (aka just wait a few seconds). Depending on what playlist you are in, these are very, very easy to get. Now, Gruntpocalypse in the Score Attack playlist is great for this, as is 2X Score Attack. You should have this done in about your first twenty to thirty kills. Might as well finish off the game then, and grab as many credits as you can.


Linked up with Bungie.net - Link your gamertag with Bungie.net and play a game in Halo: Reach Matchmaking. - 1cR
You would have figured by now that they would have made these challenge stop appearing. They clearly edited it as the credit value is now at one. That challenge is impossible to complete regardless so you will never get that one credit. They will change this a little later in the day, once they wake up on the west coast, I would assume. I will be at work and unable to post the new challenge so please post it in the comments if you can. Thanks ahead of time if you do post it in the comments.

Close Talking - Earn 40 kills with close quarters combat in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 2600cR
Like anytime we have a challenge for close quarters combat kills, which are kills typically made via the Shotgun, Energy Sword, Gravity Hammer, Melee, or Assassination, I always urge you to head to Grifball. Today is no different. Grifball will allow you to get all of these kills short of Shotgun kills. You should be able to get forty kills done in about two, or even one, games if you are lucky since you will typically score about twenty-five to thirty kills a game with the possibility of hitting much high depending on the teams. Have at it.

  1. Helping Hand - Earn 10 assists today in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 2000cR (From 7/14/12 Post)
    "In multiplayer Matchmaking, an assist is awarded whenever you deal forty percent damage to an enemy that is killed by another teammate before recovering that lost health. Slightly complicated but let me summarize: you get an assist when that asshole steals your fucking kill! Now that everyone should understand what this mean, you need to get ten over all your games today. Me, I average about two to three assists a game when I am not trying and I imagine that it is similar for most people. If you are having trouble Multi Team is a great place to get this done as there is some much going on and lots of kills being stolen."
