Halo 4 Campaign Weekly Challenges - 2/18/13

The Challenges:
Prediction Pain - Complete any Campaign Mission on Heroic or higher difficulty with the Famine, Luck and Thunderstorm skulls. - 10000 XP
So, unlike recent weeks, this challenge will not be completed by working on the other mission specific one. The addition of the Famine Skull to any already difficult challenge/level is never really a good idea so I am pretty much against the idea. For this challenge, you are most likely better off playing through the level Dawn as it is the easiest level in Halo 4. Now, the Famine skull will make it so all the dropped weapons in the level will have half as much ammunition, the Tough Luck skull will make enemies dodge more often, and the Thunderstorm skull will have all enemies upgraded, typically to their highest class. Probably won't actually be too painful, as long as you avoid any levels with Prometheans as they are the hardest enemies in the game.

Midnight Madness - Complete Midnight on Legendary difficulty with the Mythic, Tilt, Tough Luck and Thunderstorm skulls. - 30000 XP
Well, I will admit that I am a little worried to see what will come next week. Whether it be LASO or something else, only time will tell. For now, we will have to just take this lower difficulty challenge. Midnight is the final level of Halo 4 but the mission is not too hard until you come to the end. Once you enter the final area where the Didact is, this is where it becomes an absolute pain. Make sure that, whenever possible, you have either an Incinerator Cannon, Binary Cannon, or a Scattershot when approaching the top of the three various pillars around the Didact. Now, the Mythic skull will double all enemy health, the Tilt skull will make them stronger, the Tough Luck skull will have them dodging more, and the Thunderstorm skull will upgrade them. I would suggest bring a friend or two along for this one to help out with all the Knights.
