Halo Reach Daily Challenges Guide - 9/1/12

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 100 enemies in any game mode in Reach. - 2000cR
This challenge is well taken care of today by the other Daily Challenges. Hell, you can just do the "There Are Many Like..." challenge, which has you scoring two hundred weapons with precision kills in campaign, and be done with this one. You simply need a hundred kills in Reach, any game mode you wish. This can be custom games if you really want it but, as I have already said, the other challenges take care of this one. Simply move on and do not worry about this challenge at all.

Explosive Ordnance Distribution - Earn 3 kills with ordnance weapons in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 2000cR
This will, actually, be one of the hardest challenges to complete today due to the loss of Action Sack in multiplayer Matchmaking. This means we will have to do this the good 'ole fashioned way. Now, a few playlists, like Invasion or BTB, and maps, like Powerhouse, will always have explosive ordnance weapons (Grenade Launcher, Rocket Launcher, Concussion Rifle, and the Plasma Launcher) on them. You will want to aim for Objective gametypes on the smaller maps with these weapons to maximize your chances of scoring these kills. Now, this will definitely take multiple games unless you get really lucky as these weapons are typically highly sought after in most games. Have patience and try and camp the spawns if need be.

There Are Many Like... - Kill 200 enemies with precision weapons in the Campaign today. - 3000cR
If you have yet to complete the Weekly Challenge, do so today. You are likely to score a lot of precision weapon kills while doing the Package on LASO difficulty, so might as well have them go towards this challenge. Now, once that is done, you will likely still need to score some kills via the DMR, Sniper, Needle Rifle, or Covenant Focus Beam in campaign. The best way to do this is to load up ONI: Swordbase on Heroic an just play through until you hit the kills you need. You may even need to play through Nightfall as well. The reason for Heroic is so that friendly AI teammates are not stealing kills from you. As long as you damage the enemy, it will count as your kill. On the lower difficulties, you will not even have a chance to damage them before they are killed. Expect this one to take a while.

The Magic Number - Complete 7 games in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 3000cR
Well, next to "There Are Many Like..." this will be the longest challenge of the day. As long as you play through an entire game in multiplayer Matchmaking it will count for this challenge. You do not need to win at all, just complete. Quitting the game, losing connection, or being kicked will result in the game not counting, so do not do that. Once you have completed the "Explosive Ordnance Distribution" challenge, you can hit up the Living Dead or Grifball playlists, as those tend to have the fastest games, or you can simply play whatever you want and enjoy your day. Remember the Weekly Challenge, though. Only today and tomorrow to complete that sucker.
