Halo 4 Campaign Weekly Challenges - 11/19/12

The Challenges:
The Ancient One - Complete Forerunner solo on Legendary difficulty. - 4750 XP
As expected, we are now running through Forerunner, the third mission in the Halo 4 campaign on Legendary in a solo manner. Forerunner is the first level in which you encounter the Prometheans and here are some strategies for them. First off, kill Watchers first. These annoying pests spawn Crawlers, can resurrect Knights, and can randomly shield whoever they feel like. Killing them should always be a priority. For taking down Knights, any sort of automatic weapon (i.e. the AR, Storm Rifle, SAW, Suppressor) are fantastic for taking down their shields. Knights have a very small area in which you can headshot them with precision weapons to score the kill after the shields have been taken out. Remember that when the Covenant shows up, let them and the Prometheans fight. No need to jump into that battle. I actually found this level easier than Requiem, to be honest and hopefully you will too.

Pinball - Complete any Campaign Mission on Heroic or higher difficulty with the Tilt skull. - 2000 XP
So, I'm sure you noticed that "The Ancient One" challenge above and you are most likely thinking of trying to kill two birds with one stone. Well, hold onto that thought for a moment. Basically, the Tilt skull amplifies the strengths and weaknesses of all enemies. As is typical with a Halo game, the enemies in campaign have more strengths then weaknesses. Running through the level Dawn, which is the first level of the campaign, is likely your easiest option until the community figures out which level you can basically run through. This will also be easier with a teammate if you happen to be going for the "Bromageddon" achievement.
