The Challenges:
Covenant-cide - Kill 120 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking. - 3200cR
Well, sparing this challenge today, you will be in multiplayer Matchmaking today so do not expect any help from the other challenges to get this one done. A hundred and twenty kill, however is not a lot and should be completed in a single game. For this challenge, turn to the Score Attack playlist and then either 2X Score Attack or Gruntpocalypse. Whichever on is completely up to you but go for a large map so enemies do not accidentally kill each other or themselves.


Explosive Ordnance Distribution - Earn 5 kills with ordnance weapons in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 1250cR
Explosive Ordnance Weapons in Reach include the Rocket Launcher, Grenade Launcher, the Concussion Rifle, and the Plasma Launcher. These weapons are not easy to find anymore since the Action Sack playlist was taken down. Now, your best chance is the third phase of the Invasion gametype in which you will have access to either the Concussion Rifle or the Grenade Launcher. You will have two chances at this if the game is pretty even and you only need five kills in a single game. I would expect this challenge to take multiple tried and you might want to attempt Invasion Slayer as well.

Cook 'em, Clean 'em! - Kill 5 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking while you're jet-packing. - 1000cR
So, to score a kill while jet-packing, which earns you a specific medal called "Firebird", you need to be actively jet-packing when the kills is scored. Not just in the air and not falling, but actively using the jet-pack. For grenades, using the jet-pack when the opponent is hit, not when the grenade was thrown, will score you a kill while jet=packing. Now, regular Team Slayer or Multi Team is likely your best option for this challenge since those playlists tend to have gametypes that allow jet-packs in the loadout selection. Probably take a game or two to complete.

The Magic Number - Complete 7 games in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 3000cR
Well, this challenge will likely not be completed by the other two multiplayer Matchmaking ones today, "Explosive Ordnance Distribution" and Cook 'em, Clean 'em!", as they will probably be done in two or so games. This means you will need to play some additional games to complete this challenge. The choice of playlist and gametype are completely up to you. Remember that quitting, disconnecting, or getting booted from a game will cause it to not count towards this challenge. As well, having this happen a lot can cause you to incur a credit ban so be careful.
