Halo Reach Daily Challenges 03/08/2011

Gunslinger - Kill 40 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking - 1200cR

A few games of... Anything that involves killing should be fine. Can't force this one so just let it be.


Hyper Lethal Vector - Kill 100 enemies with headshots in Firefight Matchmaking - 1000cR

Gruntpocolypse works well as usual. DMR, Pistols and a bunch of Grunts. The Grunts go down with a single shot to the head, a couple if the have a helmet. Just take your time.


Nature vs. Nurture - Kill 15 Moa in Winter Contingency on Normal or harder - 2000cR

Well as they don't shoot back this isn't overly hard. Just need to remember where they are. At the beginning, Before the Jeeps and around the area you drive the Jeeps.


Put Your Quarter Up - Complete 15 games in multiplayer Matchmaking - 1750cR

The easier version of the challenge from yesterday, this time you don't even need to win and if you win 50% of them, you've reached your daily par.

Halo Reach Daily Challenges 02/08/2011

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

A couple of games of Scoreattack x2 will work out perfectly, If you keep going until you get Courtyard too, you can combine 2 challenges into one.


Fortified Court - Kill 150 enemies on Courtyard in Firefight Matchmaking- 1125cR

This challenge will require a double playing of Scoreattack also, so go for the Scoreattack x2 if you can to combine it with the above challenge.


Leadership Element - Kill 45 enemy leaders in the Campaign today - 1100cR

Leaders are generally high ranking Elites or regular Elites with a group of Grunts to control. Nightfall has a lot of Elites as does Long night of Solace (From Point Bravo Onwards) so how you play this is up to you.


Who's the Big Winner? - Win 15 games in multiplayer Matchmaking - 3000cR

A nice little mini version of the weekly challenge. More than twice the daily amount of wins needed for the weekly (7 per day with 1 extra) but it never hurts to get a leg up on these things. Like the weekly, stick to games with out right winners, avoid FFAs and Objective.

Halo Reach Daily Challenges 01/08/2011

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

A single game of Scoreattack x2 will get you this, however, combine this challenge with the one below. If you get Glacier in the mix with Scoreattack x2, you can get 2 birds with 1 stone. Any other scoreattack gametype on Glacier will leave you a few kills short and Firefight only lets you have a few Vetos, if it doesn't turn up, that's wasted time.

Grunt Spelunking - Kill 125 enemies on Glacier in Firefight Matchmaking - 1100cR

See above.


Blast Radius - Kill 40 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking with grenades - 1000cR

Combine, once again with the challenge above. You get a bunch of grenades but remember to keep them stocked. Keep nabbing plasma grenades and remember that if you shoot them and get a kill, that still counts. Also, don't be afraid to die to get a new stock of them.


Aggressive Negotiations - Earn at least 17 kills in a multiplayer Matchmaking game - 1700cR

Remember the weekly challenge where we had to get 30 kills? That was fun. Anyway, best route for this, Bit o' Grifball or possibly even Multi-Team. MT is only 4 teams now but that slayer gametype is still up to 50, just make sure you get the most kills and any objective gametypes, just have fun.

Halo Reach Weekly Challenge 01/08/2011 Clear Eyes, Full Hearts

Clear Eyes, Full Hearts

Win 50 games in multiplayer Matchmaking this week.

7777cR

Well we've got a bit of a grind here. Best thing to do is play those short & Sweet games that are team based and don't often end in stalemates. Attack and Defend game type where you each get a turn at attack & defending will either be really one sided, or a steam-roll I've generally found. That is less likely to occur when you need to attack & defend at the same time but it can still end in stalemates. Avoid, Living Dead, Invasion, Juggernaut... can you even get that in Reach Matchmaking? and Rumble Pit.

Best way to avoid stalemates is to play fast paced games & slayer. Action Sack games are often a laugh and end up with a clear winner, Grifball has the fast pace and the usual, Snipers, SWAT, Slayer all end in about 10 mins anyway depending on the map.

So stick to slayer, and make sure to not leave it all to the last day. I managed to hit the cR limit doing this challenge last time.

Halo Reach Daily Challenges 31/07/2011

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

100 is such a small amount. 1 game of Scoreattack/Firefight.


Golden Opportunity - Find and kill the Gold Ranger-class Elite in any Campaign mission on Heroic or harder - 2500cR

A list of BoBs for you. http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=50377939


Flat Tire - Kill 5 enemy vehicles in Firefight Matchmaking - 1000cR

ArcadeFight (Provided you're on a large enough map) will give you 1 a round (Go in for doubles, less competition).


Short, Controlled Bursts - Kill 100 enemies with automatic weapons in the Campaign today - 1000cR

Winter Contingency has a very large amount of grunts and gives you a lot of AR ammo (600 rounds) so that's a match made for this challenge. This would also get you the first challenge and if you search, possibly a BoB.
