Halo Reach Daily Challenges 10/09/2011

Shootin' and Lootin' - Kill 150 enemies in any game mode in Reach - 1125cR

Any game mode, once again one of those, do the others and come back to this. Firefight is always a good way to round it off.


Up Close and Personal - Kill 5 enemies with close quarters combat in a multiplayer Matchmaking game - 1100cR

Grifball. Hammers, Swords and then your fists. Not much range in this battle of chaos.


Neuroscience - Kill 10 enemies with headshots in a multiplayer Matchmaking game - 1200cR

This one can be a bit more tricky. SWAT & Snipers work well as they're games tailored towards headshots. Objective based games also work, mainly for the extra time they give you.


The Magic Number - Complete 7 games in multiplayer Matchmaking - 1350cR

Just play 7 of the buggers. Not that hard if you ask me.

Halo Reach Daily Challenges 09/09/2011

All Multiplayer today.


More than a Handful - Kill 125 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking - 2500cR

Kill stuff. Go for other challenges first and then pick this one up if you still need to.


This is My Rifle... - Earn 30 kills with precision weapons in multiplayer Matchmaking - 1250cR

Snipers & SWAT cover your Sniper & DMR usage. Also weapons of choice for this are the Needle Rifle and Focus Rifle. Invasion is another good gametype to pick those up with.


Single Wield - Earn 77 kills with small arms weapons in multiplayer Matchmaking - 1400cR

SWAT and you pistol work rather well together. Though the other weapon you can use is the Plasma Pistol. Invasion can also work here.


The Love of the Game - Complete 17 games in multiplayer Matchmaking - 1850cR

Just play and get the other challenges.

Halo Reach Daily Challenges 08/09/2011

One Spartan Army - Kill 250 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking - 1875cR

Rather simple, it'll require a few games but I really think that Firefight games such as Arcadefight and Rocketfight will really help here.


Demon - Kill 40 Elites in Firefight Matchmaking - 1400cR

once again, Arcade fight has many Elites. If you get Heretic waves, they're 100% Elite, though depending on how late into the game you get them they could be a blessing or a curse. Scoreattack x2 is a good solo way around it.


Points, Points - Score 20,000 points in a Firefight Matchmaking game - 1750cR

Any Firefight game is good here, just remember to get out there and do as much damage as you can. Scoreattack x2 and Sniperattack are also ways of getting this, although you are left cutting it a bit fine.


A Simple Spree - Earn any spree in Firefight Matchmaking - 1000cR

10 kills, or 5 kills with a specific item (Vehicle, Sniper, Shotgun etc.)

Halo Reach Daily Challenges 07/09/2011

More than a Handful - Kill 125 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking - 2500cR

Well it's rather self explanatory if I'm honest. It's a fair few I'll give you that though. Maybe try some Grifball & Multi-Team.


A Satisfied Thirst - Kill 250 Grunts in Firefight Matchmaking - 1875cR

A few Gruntpocolypse games... will leave you ever so just short. Still play a couple of them and finish the rest of with some Limited Firefight maybe? Quick, simple and you can just run into danger to finish the game early.


Leadership Element - Kill 30 enemy leaders in the Campaign today - 1000cR

Leaders are mostly Elites and I found that the best mission for this is nightfall. Take that sniper and pop some heads.


Home Field Advantage - Win 2 games in multiplayer Matchmaking - 1300cR

Go into multiplayer and kill stuff/take objective A from Point A to Point B. Very simple.

Halo Reach Daily Challenges 06/09/2011

Shootin' and Lootin' - Kill 100 enemies in any game mode in Reach - 1000cR

Simple again as always. Just shoot stuff.


Demon - Kill 50 Elites in Firefight Matchmaking - 1500cR

Scoreattack x2 and Arcadefight work well here. Both have an Elite wave for each round (Heretics for Arcade, Invisible for Score) Will take a couple of waves of them though.


Linked Up with Bungie.net - Link your gamertag with Bungie.net and play a game in Halo: Reach Matchmaking - 3000cR

Log into Bungie.net with the same E-mail address as your XBL account. Then just edit your profile a bit and add a name tag. You are done.


This is My Rifle... - Earn 20 kills with precision weapons in multiplayer Matchmaking - 1000cR

SWAT & Snipers works very well. Doesn't need to be done in one game so as long as you get kills with a: DMR, Sniper, Needle Rifle or Focus Rifle, you're fine.

Halo Reach Daily Challenges 05/09/2011

Light Fare - Kill 100 enemies in any game mode in Reach - 1000cR

Any game mode so take your pick at how you want to do this. With the other challenges demanding so much though, this will just be background noise.


Gunslinger - Kill 150 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking - 2750cR

Go around and kill stuff. Just pick games where there a lot of killing. Might I suggest Grifball or Multi-Team. Though you need to play 17 games anyway, so, yeah.


Return of the Mack - Kill 50 Elites in Campaign today on Normal or harder - 1700cR

Levels with lots of Elites, Long Night, Nightfall and Lone Wolf. Pick one, find a bunch of them, kill them, revert to saved.


The Love of the Game - Complete 17 games in multiplayer Matchmaking - 1850cR

Just play them. Finish them and get other challenges while you're doing this.

Halo Reach Weekly Challenge 05/09/2011 The Pillar of Autumn: LASO

The Pillar of Autumn: LASO

Complete The Pillar of Autumn, Legendary, All Skulls On (LASO)

17777cR



A bit anticlimactic but, still a rather fitting end (Although personally, if they had of started the whole LASO challenges so we had one a week till today, I think it would of been better. Either way, this is our 52nd weekly challenge. A whole year of the buggers. I don't claim to know LASO, I just go Co-op with a hammer. This one was challenging though, the Elites at the end were a bastard.

Back to HBO for their rundown.

They know how to do it and I'm not one to disagree.

Halo Reach Daily Challenges 04/09/2011

Blastin' and Relaxin' - Kill 180 enemies in any game mode in Reach - 1350cR

Any game mode it is. Work on the other challenges (Those will take a good chunk of time) then finish this off with whatever you want.


Who's the Big Winner? - Win 12 games in multiplayer Matchmaking - 2800cR

Can't really force this one. play games you're good at, or team up with some guys who are good. Then just play. That's all you can do.


Deathless Exodus - Complete Exodus on Legendary without dying - 2000cR

Following on from Long Night, This one is easier to begin with, a bunch of Grunts. As far as I'm aware, the whole, reach the last checkpoint then exit and start from saved game trick still works. As for going through without dying legit, Use the Jet pack to skip out parts and the DMR to fight at long range. You're fighting Brutes, Not Elites.


I'm Rubber, You're Glue - Earn 2 sticky grenade Kills in a multiplayer Matchmaking game - 1100cR

Games with Elites (Elite Slayer/Invasion) will have more plasma Grenades. Use that to your advantage. By that I mean spam the hell out of them.
