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

The Challenges:
Threading the Needle - Kill 8 Players with a headshot in a single match. - 1000 XP
Well, I did say that these large credit values would likely not last forever. Now, to score a headshot in Halo 4, you need a headshots capable weapon, which include the DMR, the BR, the Magnum Pistol, the Sniper Rifle, the Covenant Carbine, the Beam Rifle, the Light Rifle, and the Binary Cannon. You can also apparently score headshots with the Bolt Shot, but I hate that weapon. Anyway, since you will playing in the Team Objective or FFA Regicide playlists today, you can easily score headshots in those. If you are having trouble scoring those headshots, however, head for SWAT. SWAT gives everyone a DMR or BR and a Magnum pistol and no one has shields. That means lots and lots of headshots. Now, eight is not at all a lot so you probably will not even have to go to such extreme measures to secure these kills.

Rolling Thunder - Earn 2 Killing Spree medals. - 750 XP
A Killing Spree in War Games is earned when you score five kills in a row. As this challenge stipulates "Killing Spree medals" other sprees such as weapon and miscellaneous sprees will not count so do not worry about them at all. Now, you do not need two in a single game, just overall but even that can be a bit of a task with the current state of War Games Matchmaking. Generally, you will want to aim for objective gametypes, like Capture the Flag or Dominion, or gametypes with large amounts of players, like Big Team Battle. This is all really up to personal preference but I would recommend doing this challenge first to take care of the "Threading the Needle" challenge.
