Halo 4 War Games Daily Challenges - 3/24/13

The Challenges:
Fully Automated - Get 10 kills with an Automatic Loadout Weapon in a single match. - 5000 XP
Automatic loadout weapon in Halo 4 include the AR (Assault Rifle), Storm Rifle, and the Suppressor. You will likely not get as many kills with these weapons as precision weapons without actively trying for them since the effective range of the weapons is so much less. Which ever gun you pick is up to you but this info my help you make a decision. The Suppressor has the widest spread but seems to have the most powerful shot. The Storm Rifle has the smallest spread but the weakest shots. The AR is pretty comfortable with a medium spread and medium damage, therefore making it the most deadly, in my opinion. Large team gametypes or objective gametypes on smaller maps like Adrift or Haven will serve you best for getting these kills. Ten isn't too large of a number, it just requires you to only be using these weapons.

Got Backup - Get 15 kills with a Secondary Weapon. - 3000 XP
It has surely been a long time since we had a challenge based on secondary weapons. Thank you for switching it up, 343i. Secondary weapons in Halo 4 include the Magnum Pistol, the Plasma Pistol, and the Bolt Shot. You are only really likely to score kills with the Magnum and Boltshot as the Plasma Pistol will likely just end up getting you killed. If you are on a map with a lot of narrow corridors, the Bolt Shot is best but use the Magnum if you are in more wide open spaces. Now, you just need twelve kills over the day, not in a single game. The best place to get these kills, however, will be in a gametype like SWAT where you can just score easy headshots. If that is your plan, you will want a smaller map like Adrift or Haven, since the Magnum will get raped by a DMR or BR on the larger maps. If you are just playing normally, twelve secondary weapon kills will likely take three to four games to complete.
