The Challenges: 
One Spartan Army - Kill 250 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking. - 3500cR
Firefight today, as usual per a Thursday, and you, as usual, have this single challenge asking you for a bunch of kills. Unlike most other days, however, this challenge will not be covered by the other challenge only just barely. The other challenges today will likely get you about a two-hundred and forty kills. This means that you need to play at least one more game to get the remaining ten kills. I would recommend Crashsite.


Scoped - Kill 100 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking with precision weapons. - 2000cR
Precision weapons in Reach include the DMR, the Sniper Rifle, the Needle Rifle, and the Covenant Focus Rifle. For most of your kills, you are best off using the DMR in the right gametype. For most, that will be Gruntpocalypse in the Score Attack playlist. You can eliminate every Grunt you see with a simple headshot and you can score a hundred and twenty kills in a single game.



The T.G. Opposition - Kill 40 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking with the Shotgun. - 2000cR
There is really only one easy way to get a Shotgun in Firefight Matchmaking and that is to enter the standard Firefight Matchmaking playlist and vote for the Arcadefight gametype on a small map like Courtyard or Corvette. One of the loadouts in Arcadefight features the Shotgun and you will need to exclusively use it to if you want to reach forty kills. Do not be surprised if you fall just short and this needs a second game.


Survivor - Earn 9 Sprees in a Firefight Matchmaking game. - 2000cR
A spree in Firefight Matchmaking is earned when you score ten kills in a row without dying. Now, you can stack these up to five sprees and then you need more than ten kills. In a standard Firefight Matchmaking game, you will likely only get six in a game if your survive the whole time. The trick, however, will be to die on purpose once you reach fifty kills. This way you can start the sprees over and hit nine sprees.
