Halo Reach Daily Challenges 11/05/2011

More than a Handful – Kill 25 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking – 1000cR

Go into multiplayer and start shooting, punching and explode your way to victory. Play games you like or are good at and keep on killing.


Flat Tire – Kill 10 enemy vehicles in Firefight Matchmaking – 1125cR

Holdout will give you a Banshee or 2 when you play so that's a good way to start off this challenge. Another way to get vehicles is to play large maps such as Beachhead in Firefight. Scoreattak doesn't give you many vehicles to destroy.


Harder Than Some – Complete a Campaign mission on Heroic with Thunderstorm, Famine and Tilt on – 2500cR

There's no Iron skull and there's no need to not die. So this challenge is already rather easy. Most levels are easy already. You can sprint past 90% of the combat in the early missions. Do it right in Nightfall, you only need to kill 5 enemies, not a single shot need be fired and you won't be shot at. Just stick to the right and run.

Participation Counts – Complete 4 games in multiplayer Matchmaking – 1200cR

Exactly as it says on the tin. Just play and complete 4 games. Don't AFK though, you can be caught and have a cR block. Plus it's a dick move.

Halo Reach Daily Challenges 10/05/2011

Covenant-cide - Kill 120 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking - 1100cR

Scoreattack x2 will give you everything you need. More than 120 enemies to kill and weapons and ammo to kill them with.


Support Structure - Earn 30 assists in Firefight Matchmaking - 2250cR

Don't think we've had one as high as 30 before. Anyway, Firefight is where you need to be, best when done with 1 or more friends. If you coordinate your fire and have a few plasma weapons on hand, you can do a lot of beginning damage and let a friend finish them off.


A Side of Huevos - Kill 40 enemies with Sniper Rifle headshots in Nightfall on Normal - 1000cR

We had a weekly involving this a while back. Best thing to do is to start from the beginning and find the first large congregation of enemies. Once you've done that, take aim and fire. Once you've got a nice few kills, revert to saved. This way, your ammo stays replenished and there's always enemies to kill.


Now I have a Machine Gun - Earn 40 kills with automatic weapons in multiplayer Matchmaking - 1300cR

Assault Rifle, Plasma Repeater and Needler are you main weapons here. Invasion is nice as all those weapons are available from the start. Now you just need to kill with them. Shouldn't be too hard.

Fire When Ready - Kill 30 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking - 1100cR

Starting off simple and keeping you on track for the weekly. Just jump in to any game you want and kill your way through the enemy. Slayer games won't allow you to get this in one game (Unless you're very skilled or Lucky) Objective is where that's at. Although, doesn't need to be done in one game anyway, so enjoy yourself.


J.H. Death Machine - Kill 70 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking with the Grenade Launcher - 1250cR

Your normal Scoreattacks or Firefights will give you your GL but your effectiveness lessens as the enemies get harder to kill. Scoreattack x2 however, keeps you relatively strong throughout the entire game. Provided you keep that GL loaded, you've got few problems that can't be fixed with a small explosion.


Credits for Completion - Complete 5 games in multiplayer Matchmaking - 1250cR

Simple, just play. Nout else to say to this one. Just don't quit.


Demon - Kill 40 Elites in Firefight Matchmaking - 1400cR

The amount of Elites you'll kill in games varies. More so in Firefight as you'll be fighting for those kills. I'd suggest more Scoreattack x2. The final wave gives you a good set of elites to kill. Not sure how many, but usually at least 15. Sniperattack will give you 4 - 16 and Scoreattack normal will give you a very strong, 6 gold.

Halo Reach Weekly Challenge 09/05/2011 Best Served Cold

Best Served Cold

Take your Revenge on 77 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking

7777cR



Well here we go. A nice challenge here. All you need to do is play multiplayer. Revenge medals come by killing the guy who killed you. Over all, not that hard. The quickest ways to get Revenge Medals that I've found, is to go into some Doubles games. With a 2 Vs 2 combat area, it's a 50/50 change of getting the guy who killed you. Other games such as Grifball are other good ones as you usually just plough through the enemies anyway. If you just play online and get 11 revenge medals per day, you're on track to get it.

Halo Reach Daily Challenges 08/05/2011

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

Nice and simple start to your Sunday with. The other challenges will require you to kill more than 180 enemies anyway. So just go for them and see what comes out.


There Are Many Like... - Kill 200 enemies with precision weapons in the Campaign today - 1500cR

ONI Sword Base and Nightfall give you plenty of ammo and precision weapons so I'd suggest starting there. Lone wolf can also be a viable solution, there's a bit of DMR around & a sniper. So take your pick.


Flat Tire - Kill 10 enemy vehicles in Firefight Matchmaking - 1125cR

Outlook is good. Almost guaranteed a Banshee or 3 over the course of the game. Other large maps such as Beachhead are likely to give you vehicles, but it's a random amount.


You Want This, Don't You? - Earn 12 kills with precision weapons in a multiplayer Matchmaking game - 1500cR

SWAT, Snipers and Invasion are what you want. Invasion is good if you need a little more time to kill.
