Hello again, today, distractions are a major part in the daily challenges and not just in the normal sense. Let's get right in today.
Points, Points - Score 15,000 points in a Firefight Matchmaking game. - 1500 cR
That's a nice set of cR there, It's not always possible to get that in a Gruntpocolypse so you've got 2 ways of doing this. Enter a 3 Round Firefight game, possibly with rockets, or, do a Score Attack Sniperfight. If you do it on an open map such as Beachhead you should be able to survive (I find taking a hologram will save your life)
Leadership Element - Kill 45 enemy leaders in the Campaign today. 1500 cR
Now, I'm not fully sure what classifies as an "Enemy Leader" so I'll have to get more info of that when I get home. If you want to attempt to get it before then, go out there and kill and give me some info please :D.
Shootin' and Lootin' - Kill 150 enemies in any game mode in Reach. 1500cR
By the time you've done the previous two you'll already have this one.
Those 3 are worth 4500 cR all together. More than the weekly and in a much shorter time, they also have no effect on the weekly challenge, distracting us from it. The final challenge involves you to distract in a more literal sense.
Secondary Fire - Earn 25 assists today in multiplayer Matchmaking.
Team up, use melee, Plasma weapons and Snipers to take down those shields and let your friend finish them.
So there we have it, 5000 cR and none of the challenges themselves help the weekly so you'll need to find time for that, is it worth the 5000 cR though, Hell Yes. So there's my take on it all, what you do is up to you. Have fun and I'll be back later.

Halo Reach Weekly Challenge 25/10/2010 (Grindtacular)
Right, I thought I'd separate the weekly from the Daily as this one, is a bit of a grind.
All in a Week's Work - Kill 1000 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking this week. 4000 cR
It's not the standard add 1 extra 0 to the amount of enemies. Overall, the effort doesn't reflect the reward. However, it's a nice amount, so I'll go for it. Now, this isn't really something you can overly aim for, it's a case of slowly achieving it over the week. If you just do 125 a day for the weekday (I'm expecting most people work or have school so can't play all day) then you only need 375 over the weekend, you could even do 100 a day and leave 500 for the weekend which wouldn't take too long. It's just a case of finding the right amount for the day, hopefully the daily challenges this week will be MP focused to help us along, we already have 50 kills for today.
So do what you feel like doing, do the gametype that you play well in, or not, you've got time to retry.
Have fun and don't over do it. I don't really want to see anyone complete it before Friday. Just proves how much free time you have :P

Halo Reach Daily Challenge 25/10/2010 (Grindtacular)
Hello all, welcome to this very Grindpocolypse start to the weeks challenges. The Bungie guys really want us to kill everything we come across. So lets get started.
Short, Controlled Bursts - Kill 50 enemies with automatic weapons in the Campaign today. 500 cR
Automatic weapons are the Assault Rifle and the Needler to name a couple, I also believe the Plasma Repeater and Spiker are also classified auto, although I find the repeater quite useless. Try to play games with as many grunts as you can find. They'll just fall.
One Spartan Army - Kill 400 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking. 2000 cR
More killing, this time in Firefight. I'm going to stick with my good old fashioned, Gruntpocolypse. 4 games of that (about 40 mins of gameplay)
Aggressive Negotiations - Earn at least 17 kills in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. 1200cR
I'm going to go with my new found love, multi-team. Any game mode other than Rocket Race will give you enough time and points to get this challenge. Big team and Invasion (Slayer & Normal) would also both be viable option.
Fire When Ready - Kill 50 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking
More grinding but no real rush. Do what you feel like.
So yeah that's the daily challenges, I'll add the weekly in a moment or two after I get a drink. See you in a bit.

Halo Reach Daily Challenge 24/10/2010 UPDATE
Points Pyramid - Score 25,000 points on any Campaign mission. 2500 cR
Right, Found the easy way to do this. Start on "The Package" Stick it on Heroic. Now, put on these skulls. Tough Luck, Catch, Cloud and Famine. As this mission gives you a Scorpion shortly after you start, these skulls don't hinder you that much. As you're in a Tank this gives the AI the excuse to throw Banshees at you. 1 shot from the Scorpion and you've got 800 points. Revenants are worth over 2000 each, Ghosts range from 1000-1500. Now, the easiest part, the big AA guns, if you shoot them in the back of the gun 7 times, they blow up, causing you to get an extra Multikill and more bonus points.
With these setting I managed to get all the points by the time I reached the Gates leading to Swordbase where I need to exit the tank anyway. If you're still short by a bit, stay around for a while and more Banshees will fly over to meet you.
There we go, If you're still short, head into the base and it shouldn't take too long to get the rest of the points. If you believe you can, stick it up onto Legendary or Add more skulls to get it even faster but I believe this is the foundations for the quickest way.

Halo Reach Daily Challenge 24/10/2010
Hello, It's Sunday once again and therefore your last chance to get the weekly challenge. Today, you'll be doing a bit of everything.
Gunslinger - Kill 150 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking. 1500 cR
Not really challenging but certainly a time consumer. Just go out there in a gamemode and kill as much as you can. Like a said yesterday, multiteam and its crazy king is brilliant for this.
Scoped - Kill 100 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking with precision weapons. 1400 cR
Covenant-Cide - Kill 75 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking. 700 cR
Gruntpocolypse, It gives you a DMR and 120ish enemies to kill. It's become that point in the seek where we're just running through the regulars.
The odd one this week is this:
Points Pyrimid - Score 25,000 points on any Campaign mission. 2500 cR
It doesn't matter about dying but time is important. I'm currently attempting to find the quickest way to do this so stay tuned. For now just attempt the other ones.
