What is the hardest mission to complete on legendary?
I vote for Regret
>>344321763
literally anything in Reach, partly because it's difficult and partly because the campaign is so horrible you don't even want to play it
>>344321978
Kind of like every Halo SP
>>344321978
>reach
>difficult
what
>>344321763
>that one room on Crows Nest with all those brutes and almost no cover in Halo 3
>fighting 3 Warden Eternals at the same time in Halo 5
>any area in Halo 2 with snipers
Those are probably the hardest areas for me in the series. But overall I think Cortana in Halo 3 is the mission that gives me the most trouble on legendary.
>>344321763
Gravemind you idiots
>>344321763
The part of Halo 2 with Flood controlled vehicles.
>>344321978
Reach wasn't bad. I have the achievement for beating it solo on legendary and I suck at vidya.
>>344323090
I have the achievement for beating all 4 campaigns in the MCC solo legendary in 4 days and it was my first time playing them
>>344321978
>the campaign is so horrible you don't even want to play it
This part at least is very true.
>>344324257
Fuck that shit, the Halo Reach campaign had great set pieces. There isn't a single level in the campaign that's similar to the one before it.
>>344321763
>yfw Bungie joked about Cortana controlling the galaxy in the Halo 1 commentary
Not the hardest, but the start of Two Betrayals is dumb.
>>344321978
Reach has the better designed campaign than the others, its no way the hardest or the worst.
>>344326054
Why
>>344325925
>343 is made up of people who didn't get that it was a joke
>>344321978
>Reach
>hard
It had a solo legendary achievement and that shit was easy.
>tfw 5 doesn't have daily/weekly/monthly challenges
>literally no reason to ever touch campaign outside of achievements
>all to keep the REQ system inflated and sell packs for real money
Depends on what game. Twin Betrayals was the hardest for me on CE because it was so fucking long and there's no specific strategy for getting through the level any faster than a normal run.
>>344325802
I like how the army and marines are doing all the cool stuff Chief does why you and garbage team is too much of a chicken shit to actually do anything unique. The only thing good about Halo: Reach missions were the set pieces since the levels themselves weren't interesting at all.
>>344326283
There is one where you can despawn the enemies at the beginning, then take a banshee and take it the top so when you spawn the enemies you can just fly away
>>344326252
halo 5 has like 4 different daily req packs you can get along with a shitton of commendation packs
>>344326115
>Reach campaign
>better designed than the others
Nice joke I'm sure you loved taking out AA guns while the soldiers in the background did the real work in Tip of the Spear didn't you?
>/v/ has already forgotten The Library
>>344323702
I'm 2 month old infant and I beat every halo game on legendary with melee only
>>344321763
Gravemind's first area
Cairo station's second boarding party
Sniperland
>>344326601
Two betrayals and keyes are worse.
Regret gravemind are the hardest though with honorable mention for coastal fucking highway. 3 was overall not bad, you can run through most of cortana because of leashes
>>344326601
Library was rather easy. Shotgun or pistol takes out everything easy and when any huge group spawns you can just run back and wait for the door to open. Also the only enemies are flood, which are dumb as shit and you can stand by a corner and gib them as they walk around it, one by one.Then again it might be that it's my favorite level and I've played through it over 700 times.
>>344326126
Because it starts you with just a plasma rifle (I think) and there's a bunch of sentinels and barely any cover. It's easy to just get melted right away.
>Anything involving Snipers in Halo 2
>Anything Hunters in Reach
>Anything Prometheans in 4
>The towers section of Midnight
>>344327130
Theres 4 sentinels and a plasma pistol. Full charge intlstagibs then. Its pretty easy
>>344327130
Plasma pistol and a shotgun. Pistol is there to overcharge and ohko the sentinels easily. Just don't stay still and you'll barely take any damage due to the large glass plates that act as cover. The irritating parts of the level are more the bridges and the rooms with rocket flood.
>>344326525
Yes, but they're awful and not interesting in the slightest. And still none of them come from campaign.
Reach and 4 had stuff like "get 50 pistol kills for 1000 credits" which was fun and made matchmaking varied each day.
>people say two betrayals was hard
>no one mentions the section with a small army of enemies and a tank preventing you from getting the banshee
I mean sure you could cheat by going down the center but then you'd miss the rocket launcher.
>>344327976
Was that during the final area of the level? because if so, i can agree that battle was a bitch.
Gravemind is easily the hardest.
It's also a fucking hour long just playing casually on normal / hard.
>>344328449
First area.
Final area's banshee grab is easy af because you can just dash in with a ghost and hold up on the banshee control to escape.
>>344321763
>daylight Halo thread
>no shitposting
This can't be right
Fuck off halo babbies
>>344328621
If you're not gunned down by flood with rockets or the two wraiths, that is.
>>344329109
If you immediately dash by the flood they will almost never hit you. Also you can snipe one of the tanks with a sniper zoom and a rocket launcher from the are just before. You might die a couple times but it's the best way to do it.
>>344328980
>>344327130
That's easy. The harder part is the next hall which has zero cover and both Sentines and Covies teaming up on you. Then there's the outer door, with a bunch of covies outside with no cover for you but lots for them.
After that it gets easier.
>>344322998
Eh. Worth it for Sputnik.
>>344329696
>mfw hiding behind a shield
>nade the two elites hiding in the corner and they can't jump out of the way because they're walled in on 3 sides
Off-topic question:
I do not have an xbox of any sort, and I absolutely am not getting win10
What GOOD Halo games can I play on PC?
>>344321763
Tsavo Highway was a pain in my ass on solo legendary
>>344330015
No.
>>344330180
forgot to add
>tfw it's been ~8 years since i got that achievement
jesus christ
>>344328449
I just take a ghost rush to the other side, Wraith always misses me and hide behind the two big rocks. I then use my Rocket Launcher on the Wraith and use my ghost on the other Wraith and after that go back behind the rock and jump between the two rocks firing my rocket at the shade turret and then I jack a Banshee. The Banshee is at half health by the time I reach the air but now the Covenant and the Flood will stop firing at me and I didn't even waste any health. If you want to finish the enemies off you could just stay in the air and Banshee bomb everyone and when you are finished look for the Stealth Elites that hide around the small cliff near the second area and the center of the massive area where you fought the Wraith. Hope this helps.
>>344322058
>any halo
>difficult
I will give you Halo 2, simply because I've only seen it played Co-op by my brothers over Christmas break, and that shit just looked infuriating. All the Halo games I've played just involve picking off minions with precision weapons and then finishing the big guys with plasma/precision combos or a power weapon. Halo 5 required a moderately greater amount of effort to get past Wardens, but even that was only a minor obstacle in the grand scheme of things.
>>344321978
Reach had the best designed Legendary in the series. Tough but fair. CE was good, 2 was retarded, 3 was easy, ODST was complete babby mode.
>>344330857
>Halo 5 required a moderately greater amount of effort to get past Wardens
Not even on solo legendary. Wardens were easy as shit, and that's before factoring in that the final Warden fight is optional.
>Next Level: Cortana
>>344330616
This does work but since the banshee is essentially the end of the level you need not worry about health. Ghosting straight for the banshee works too.
Cortana was my personal hard one. But that was because I was trying to do that one right after doing CoD4's airplane level on veteran too.
>>344330015
1 and 2 are the only ones on pc, both are good
>>344331302
oh jesus christ, dont remind me of that shit
>>344331302
That's the level with all the zombie aliens inside their ship in Halo 3 right? That level is really easy, just run past everyone.
>>344330857
5 is one of the easiest though
Regret
>infinitely spawning honour guards
>>344330857
Legendary can be hard depending on the game but none of them are bad. SLASO on the other hand is imo one of the hardest thibgs in vidya
I found cortana terribly hard, mainly because i didn't really know how to approach it I guess, but it sticks out in my memory as my least favourite and hardest. Also I remember it being really long, was it?
>>344331802
>mfw I killed them all with energy swords and shotguns
>thought I was done with them
>infinite grunts start appearing instead
>more honour guards appear near regret despite none spawning near the door anymore
I ended up going to the bridge on the top and jumping on him, rinsing and repeating.
The Ark on Mythic is stupidly difficult.
12 brutes in the last room, and all of them have tilt stats.
How much HP do white elites have compared to brutes in Halo 2? They take so many less shots but brutes die in 1 grenade.
>>344332748
Brutes have more HP, but Elites have a ridiculous amount of shield so they're pretty much invincible unless you shoot them with a noob combo
>>344332748
I think they have a fair bit more, the Elites, I mean. But you have to remember damage scaling is not the same in transition from 2 to 3. Carbine shots do less damage in 2 than they do in 3.
>>344330015
1 and 2, that's itand 1's campaign hasn't aged we.. It's still fun, but you really need to keep in mind it was made in 2001 because it can get pretty tedious due to decisions made due to hardware limitations at the time.
>>344331219
>ODST baby mode
What? I agree with your other rankings, though,
>>344332870
>>344332896
Ah. Well that would make sense. I hated having to dual needler every single brute in 2.
>>344332959
ODST felt like I took a lot less damage than 3 Legendary, and even Jackal Snipers didn't kill in one shot. Plus the levels were generally smaller and there was no Flood.
>>344321763
Any flood level. especially "Cortana"
>mfw melee attacks were actually effective on flood in 2
>>344333542
>Cortana
I don't remember it being all that dificult.
>>344331559
>tfw i beat it on legendary that way
felt like such a shitter making mad dashes to checkpoints
>>344333668
Are you sure you're not confusing it with Halo 3?
>>344333183
Adding onto this, the only hard level is coastal highway because of all the god damn fhosts and fuel rods and buck shootibg the wrong thing
>>344333816
Nah, I know they worked really well in 3 (especially on brute forms) but it was more astonishment that a melee (from a brute shot) killed one in 2, since it was useless to melee one in CE.
>>344321763
i thought it was cool that you actually got to fight regret. the prophets were pretty cool villains overall.
>>344334038
>Brute shot
>Flood
That only applies to High Charity, then.
>>344335103
I thought it was cool how he was a pushover and then lollegendary turn ot up to 10. Also one of the few good things mcc did was prophet birthday skull
>>344334038
>mfw snipers dealt zero damage to flood in Halo CE
>>344335462
Yeah, a bit less of a surprise for the energy sword considering it's a sword, but still quite a surprise because despite the blade, I was always used to avoidng meleeing flood unless you needed to quickly stun one.
>>344335723
It does deal damage, but you need like 16 shots to kill one.
>>344335723
>tfw carriers don't even make the reticle red unless you point at their crotch
>>344335723
Halo CE is the only Halo game that did flood right
>>344336029
Depends on what you mean by did it right.
The flood were the funnest to fight in CE thanks to how meaty the AR and shotgun was in CE, but how they worked in Halo 3 made the most sense.
Covenant weapons, explosives, and the flamethrowerdo the most damage since they just melt it, brute weapons are second best since they fire superheated metal and have blades on fucking everything, normal bullets are the least since they just pass right through them
>>344335462
Brute shot made High Charity easy since it's a good as a sword but never runs out.
>>344336281
I thought it was weird that covie weps worked in 3, considering that the reasoning of them being ineffective in 1 was that they were intended to cause crippling pain and skin burns so flood were nigh immune due to inability to feel pain.
>>344336281
god i miss the flamethrower in 3. it was pretty underused too.
>>344336646
It was cut from 1 and 2 for a reason and only available a few times in 3. Too fucking op
>>344336913
it was in the PC version of 1
>>344336459
I totally forgot it was a 1 hit kill melee in the air
>>344321763
For me, it's still the Library. It's not even just the difficulty but the years of baggage always throw me off my game
>>344337569
If you can't take the hordes (few can), most of the time you can run back to a safe spot and wait for the door to open. That or shoot, run, and wait for the mob to gather, then throw a frag grenade.
>>344321763
Cortana in Halo 3 gave me the most shit out of all of them
>>344337447
Only in a the pc mp maps though, doesnt count wen were talking sp
>>344337873
Oh I can beat it, but it fucking kills any run or marathon I'm doing. It's such a dreadful experience every time.
>>344330015
CE and 2.
Halo Wars and Halo Wars 2 are about to be on PC though.
All future Halo games will also be on PC according to Spencer.
>>344321763
>Any Halo game
>ever hard
Every game you literally just throw all the skulls on, toss it on Legendary, and beat the game in five hours.
What?
>>344338549
Don't know about all future Halo games MS changed their stance to all games that were at e3 now.
>>344336913
the first few halos have so much fucking cut content.
>>344338549
So first Halo Wars is confirmed too? That's great news.
>>344322808
> 3 Wardens
That shit was such a pain in the ass without player controlled buddies.
>ctrl f Truth and Reconciliation
>nothing found
are you shitting me right now
also, Halo Wars has a level that is impossible to beat on any level without having it glitch out
>>344338723
>lying on the internet
>>344338723
you have to unlock the skulls first, dingus.
>>344322808
>Three wardens tough
Just jump over them
>>344338964
>also, Halo Wars has a level that is impossible to beat on any level without having it glitch out
Which would that be? I've completed it a bunch of times with no problems.
>>344338515
Ah. Well good luck with practicing it, it's my favorite level so I've memorized most of it over the course of ~1000 runs.
Cortana is a meme level, as is The Library. They're not actually hard, and you can easily run past most things in these levels. Halo 2 Legendary is hard but it's easy to tackle if you take it slowly while you can't really do this as easily in CE because of the health system. My vote goes to Two Betrayals. Fuck everything about that mission
>>344339273
Scarab is entirely luck based
>>344338964
Truth and Reconciliation was fucking brutal if you fucked up during the gravity lift but at least they gave you a checkpoint before the grunt level hunters appeared. Otherwise it's not too hard, lots of tight hallways so grenades are very effective.
>>344339553
Scarab is easy as fuck, you just destroy a couple of generators then you can bait the beam to one side permanently with a Warthog. You place your tanks and stuff to the left of the Scarab, then take couple of Warthogs and drive them through the beam to make it follow you to the side. Then you just keep triggering it over and over.

>>344339973
What is this?
>>344339973
Is this just h:a on pc
>>344340336
A big mod for CE that adds new sections to the levels, along with better graphics, more weapons (DMR, BR, Hunter fuel rod cannons etc) and more enemies (Brutes). So far it has Pillar of Autumn to Assault on the Control Room.
>>344340795
Also vehicles like the Mongoose, Gauss Hog, Rocket Hog and Wraith.
>>344322998
That one was a real doozy, it's just so easy to get practically instakilled there.
But while vehicle levels are generally horrible in legendary, Halo 4 had it worst: it was ridiculously annoying to survive vehicle sections when your vehicle doesn't regen off damage, it's hard to obtain a new one if current one gets broken and enemy vehicles are far more durable that yours in showdowns. Really fun to fight multiple Wraiths with slow-ass tank when you can't take even one direct hit, but they can take multiple and there are also Ghosts prowling around. Not that H4 SP wasn't shit otherwise too, but that was certainly the most tormenting part of it.
Uhm... quarantine zone:^)
>>344341743
Literally fuck that stupid gondola section.
I remember the very first part of Assault on the Control Room being stupid as fuck, putting you up against elites turrets and a horde of grunts
>>344341902
Gondola wasnt too bad, they come up the same pipe and you can kill most with grenades and swords
That level however did suck balls
>>344341902
You could walk to the top of the gondola on one of the beams and literally just wait that section out. It's cheese but works
>>344342038
>throw grenade
>fuck it was bad
>revert
>>344341902
I was actually joking, quarantine zone is one of the easiest levels in the game. If you have trouble facing down the flood in the gondola, you can hide either on the right side or in the back and they'll never find you. Just sit tight after that and on the extremely rare chance that a flood wanders in, camo. Also you can take a ghost and boost through the entire level without firing a single shot or ever using a melee attack.
>>344342038
The grunts and turrets were garbage but man, fuck those elites.
>>344342423
What about the section with rocket launching flood that one-shot you half the time?
>>344344494
Most of the time you'll speed by so fast they'll never hit you. If they do, no big deal since it's pretty easy boost by them again.
What is the point of the tiny sentinels?
>>344346880
Constructors repair damages to damaged Forrunner structures.
>>344347180
I mean in game. Do they do anything other than fix the edge of the entrance platform?
>>344347301
I think they helped with the construction of different facilities such as Installation 04B.
>>344330015
>I absolutely am not getting win10
I want this meme to end
>>344331802
I hated that first part of that level, you literally spawn and die immediately, you have to start dodging before the level even begins
>>344347596
I think all the non military sentinels helped with construction (i.e. the sentinel wall, the gas mine, etc.) What I meant was do they have a function, i.e. do you attract more normal sentinels if you kill one, trigger an event, or are they just background filler?
>>344339082
Not since ODST
The only truly difficult level in halo CE is T&R and that is because
A- you don't have access to the pistol
B- most of level is standing around shooting while you wait for the level to continue
Halo 2 is definitely the most difficult halo game by far, this is mostly because the enemies become complete bullet sponges on the harder difficulties, rendering any strategy apart from the noob combo useless.
The Jackal snipers are also considered bullshit as well, while i agree with this, their leathality is almost completely neutered by adopting speedrunning tactics. Every encounter bar one is skippable or at least easily bypassed by using a few speedrunning tricks. For these reasons, I would say that Regret and Gravemind are Halo 2's hardest levels.
Halo's 3, 4 and 5 aren't difficult at all.
Reach had it's moments but apart from the level where you ride a falcon to the spire no one level sticks out in particular.
Does anyone wanna play XBL with me? Looking to play some good ole halo
GT: HomedogJesus
Also, the answer to your question is 'Cortana', OP.
>>344348851
Aye, this is true
Although noob combo isn't the only viable one (unless you're in Cairo station)
>>344338964
That fight at the start is brutal
>>344347879
When I killed one in Halo 2 it alerted the security at the sentinel wall and I was attacked by the sentinels until I blew up the doorways that created them.
>>344351219
Ah. So they aren't just scenery. Thanks m8
>>344321763
The Library, seriously that mission was fucking annoying as hell. Everything else is piss easy with noob combo
I think the easiest legendary halo has to be reach, halo 2 and halo 5 and the hardest being 1 but I think its mostly because of dated mechanics.
I replayed cortana on legendary as well as beat halo 1 on legendary recently and it wasn't as hard as I remember, maybe its cause I got older or it wasn't my first try, but library is still a pain in my asshole.
