Halo Reach: LASO Guide - Part 5: Long Night of Solace - II

See Part I here.



Now you will be assaulting a Covenant ship and using it to deliver the Slip-Space bomb. You will receive significant backup from the UNSC Frigate Savannah and you can use the Frigate to hide yourself while recovering shields and armor. The game will encourage you to attack the engines, but hold off until you have eliminate the ships initial escort, which consists of Banshees and Seraphs.

Some Help.

Once the escort is eliminated, maneuver behind the vessel and pour cannon-fire and missiles into the engines.

Engine Stopped.

Has it already been two weeks?  That was a fast almost-fortnight.  I must apologize beforehand if there are some errors or mistakes.  I'm posting this quickly in the morning since I start a full-time job today.  (Wish me luck!) Any mistakes or errors will be fixed in the evening after I get back from work.

Now, Long Night of Solace on (S)LASO difficulty is a controller-breaker, without a doubt.  There are a few tricks that make this level easier, but not on the same level as Nightfall or Tip of the Spear.  The only one close to that is at the end of the mission.  This is another level that I would not do co-operatively because of Sabre space combat and the final part of the mission.

A major shout out is owed to Tyrant's Reach Mythic Guide at halo.bungie.org for the help it provided in a few key parts.  We see some of the strategy differently, but he does write some fantastic and comprehensive guides.
