Halo 4 War Games Daily Challenges - 4/26/13

The Challenges:
Spray and Pray - Get 50 kills with an Automatic Loadout Weapon. - 1000 XP
Well, this is more than it was worth last time, at least. Still needs to award a bit more credits, however. Automatic Loadout Weapons in Halo 4 include the AR (Automatic Rifle), the Storm Rifle, and the Suppressor. The Needler and the Chain Gun do not count for these challenges as you cannot equip them in loadouts. These fifty kills, luckily, do not need to be in a single game and can be earned over the entire day. Whichever weapon you choose will depend on several things, the first of which being what weapons you have unlocked, the next being the type of combat you prefer. The Storm Rifle has the tightest spread but is the weakest while the Suppressor is the most powerful but is the most inaccurate. The AR sits in the middle being the best compromise to both weapons with a decently concentrated spread and good power behind it. I would stick to objective gametypes as they will allow you to get in close quarters and score these kills. Expect this challenge to take a four or five games to complete.

Drop Bears! - Assassinate 3 Players in a single match. - 1750 XP
Well, this challenge is back down to demanding three assassinations in a single game before. This will be a moderately difficult challenge for most so expect to spend a little time on it. You can trigger an assassination animation by holding the melee button behind an enemy. The animation needs to mostly complete for it to count. Now, Team Slayer Pro had been the best playlist for me to get assassinations, but that is now gone so we need other playlists. I have had luck in FFA Regicide on maps like Haven or Adrift (more Haven than the other one) which means stick to smaller maps. Dominion might be worthwhile for some, but that maps are much larger so you will likely need to hide in the bases. Expect to spend two or three games working on this one. Utilize Promethean Vision and Invisibility when you can.
