The Challenges:
Blastin' and Relaxin' - Kill 180 enemies in any game mode in Reach. - 2343cR
A hundred and eighty kills is not really a lot nowadays, is it? Yeah, not really. Now, your other challenges today will help with this challenge, but I do not think that they will actually finish off this challenge completely. The "Survivor" challenge will earn you a hundred and twenty kills or so since it will be one game in the Score Attack playlist, "L.D. Alexandria" will probably get you about fifty or so kills, and the "Double Double" challenge may bring in twelve to thirty kills. "Double Double" depends on what game mode you play in and will likely depending on whether or not this challenge will be completed without any extra work.

Survivor - Earn 7 Sprees in a Firefight Matchmaking game. - 2000cR
A spree in Firefight Matchmaking is earned when you score ten kills in a row without dying. You can get up to five sprees, two short of what you need for this challenge, by scoring fifty kills without dying. You should be scoring these quite easily so this challenge should take little time to complete. This challenge does not stipulate just Killing Sprees so weapon and other miscellaneous sprees will also count. Once you hit fifty kills I would just die so you can start those sprees over and have this done in no time flat. 2X Score Attack and Gruntpocalypse are the preferred gametypes for this challenge.

L.D. Alexandria - Complete Alexandria, without dying, on Legendary with Mythic, Thunderstorm, Tilt, and Tough Luck on. - 5000cR
New Alexandria is, actually, one of the easier levels. Large portions of it can be skipped or simply run through. See how to get through it fast using my LASO guide. As well, you can die during these challenge. All you need to do is "Save and Quit" before the final objective and then load it back up and finish off the challenge. For New Alexandria, you want to save just before you land at the pad at the ONI building. After landing there you will have completed the mission so enjoy these easy, practically free credits.

Double Double - Earn 2 Double Kills in the same match in Multiplayer Matchmaking. - 2000cR
Now, a Double Kill is when you score two kills within four seconds of each other and this is the most common type of multi kill. You will need to space these out so you do not stack to high multi kills, which will not count for this challenge. Your best bet for getting these Double Kills is, without a doubt, Grifball as it allows you to score tons and tons of kill and multi kills. However, you will definitely have the chance to get Double Kills if you are working with explosive ordnance in a playlist like Invasion or such, so to try to get some there as well. Grifball is still your best bet though.

The Weekly Challenge:
Ride The Wave - Complete 150 Waves in Firefight Matchmaking. - 30000cR

It seems that, instead of being inventive with these challenges, 343i is simply content to regurgitate challenges that we have already seen. It is not too surprising, but one can hope right? Well, this challenge is by far one of the easier weekly challenges. This challenge will require you to, at least, complete a whopping ten games of Firefight Arcade over the next week. Every game of Firefight Arcade, if completed, consists of sixteen wave (this includes the bonus round which counts as a wave.) A game like Score Attack only consists of five waves, so it is smarter to play Firefight Arcade. A person could actually get this challenge done in a single day but most likely you will have it done by the weekend. Good luck with this exceedingly difficult challenge /sarcasm.
