Super easy on Legendary

In Response To: Re: Majestic Rescue: more fun on foot. (munky-058)


: Click in left thumbstick to give them a target area... That would be nifty.

So right. I hope 343 is listening.

: In my experience, if you shoot the vehicle a couple of times, they don't
: drive off. Usually.

I will try that in future but didn't pick up a Hog until all turrets were down. My first death was by Wraith when I drove the Hog. I may try again and kill my allies (is that possible?) then I can snipe from the Hog.

When the level starts do a 180 and run to the Sphere that is approached via the rock tunnel. It's the caves where you scanned the UNSC gear the last time you were here. This is the only sphere were you fight up close. Kill the Covies, kill the sphere.

Then you can pick off the second sphere for that turret from the caves, you will take limited fire from covie soldiers that is easy to avoid. Shield recharges can be done from cover.

Once the first sphere is down they will retreat from that area and you can take out three of the last spheres from around there without taking enemy soldier fire. Go back for ammo to give them time to vacate the area then return. Aim with scope then unscope and watch for turret fire. You will also get verbal warnings. There is ammo for: carbines near the Hogs and there is ammo for DMRs and BRs in the caves.

You have to go in front of the first turret plateau to sight the last sphere. Where I stood did not come under fire from either soldiers or turrets.

I took the sphere down to a one shot kill then went back for the Hog then dismounted and took the shot then boarded really quickly.

Using the Hog was my downfall. :-)

343 Please, please, please fix the Hog in campaign. It is literally better without it.
