The Challenges:
One Spartan Army - Kill 150 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking. - 2250cR
This is the only challenge today in Firefight Matchmaking so you will need to go out of your way to get this one. The Score Attack playlist is the easiest option as you can play Gruntpocalypse or 2X Score Attack. Both of these gametypes will allow you to score about a hundred and twenty kills per game so you will undoubtedly end up short of your goal. Therefore, expect to play two games to hit the total for this challenge.


Throwing Fireballs - Kill 8 enemies with grenades in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 1600cR
Eight grenade kills in a single game will actually be quite the challenge. You can use Fragmentation (Frag) Grenades or Plasma (Sticky) Grenades to score these kills. Gametype is important and Multi Team has always done the best for me since you have nine targets and all of them are also trying to kill another nine targets. Go for small maps like Countdown (Swordbase is a little too big) and head to the middle. Just toss your grenades as people are attacking each other and you should be all set. Expect this to take a few games to complete.


There Are Many Like... - Kill 50 enemies with precision weapons in the Campaign today. - 1500cR
Precision weapons in Reach include the DMR (Designated Marksman Rifle), the Sniper Rifle, the Needle Rifle, and the Focus Beam Rifle. The easiest and quickest access to these is the start of ONI: Swordbase where your are immediately equipped with a DMR. Playing through the level on Heroic will allow you to not have all your kills stolen but still have a not too difficult time getting the kills Remember that as long as you damage an enemy, AI teammates taking the kills will still count as yours.

Participation Counts - Complete 4 games in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 2400cR
Well, there is one other multiplayer Matchmaking challenge today and there is a chance it will get you to four games completed. If not, afterwards just play whatever gametype you enjoy. Remember that in Reach, you need to play a game from start to finish for it to count as a completed game. If you drop, get kicked, or quit the game it will not count for this challenge. Do this too much and you risk a temporary ban so be careful.
