The Challenges:
Blastin' and Relaxin' - Kill 180 enemies in any game mode in Reach. - 2343cR
The other challenges today will most take care of the a hundred and eighty kills needed for this challenge. "Katanarama" will get you a hundred to a hundred and twenty kill, "A Side of Huevos" will get you around sixty kills, and "Neuroscience" will get you about ten to twelve kills. All of this depends on how efficient you are but the less efficient you are, the more likely you are to complete this challenge by doing the other challenge. Get to it.


Katanarama - Kill 1 enemies using the Energy Sword in Firefight Matchmaking. - 2000cR
You have two options for this challenge and both are pretty easy. The first option is to head to the standard Firefight playlist and get a game of Arcadefight. One of the loadouts there has the Energy Sword, so just score a single kill with it. The other option is going to the Score Attack playlist and doing 2X Score Attack. The final wave is always Elites and a few will have swords. Kill one of them, get his sword, and score the kill for the challenge.


A Side of Huevos - Kill 60 enemies with Sniper Rifle headshots in Nightfall on Normal. - 2500cR
Sniper Rifle headshots on Nightfall are actually not as easy to come by as you might think, especially due to how much the targets move. Load up on Heroic so Jun doesn't steal too many kills and get to the first section with a ton of enemies. Replay this section to score as many kills as you can. Probably will take about two tries to reach sixty kills, but three if you get a lot of body shots.



Neuroscience - Kill 10 enemies with headshots in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 2400cR
So headshots are easiest to score with precision weapons in Reach, the best of those two being the DMR and the Sniper Rifle. Team SWAT and Team Snipers give those weapons, respectively, and allow you to score one-shot, headshots kills. Ten kills in a game is slightly below average but maybe be challenging for some who are unused to those gametypes. SWAT is the easier of the two so your best luck is likely in that playlist.
