K, thanks Fusion. I'll be sure to do that.

This is why I don't like overcomplicating it all with ranks and medals and whatnot. In order to get challenges and the like you often have to cheapen your gameplay style.

I just get them that way because I don't exactly have the best aim in the world.


Oh, and the Jetpack challenge can die in a fire. I know you can get it by doing a quick jump, but that requires me to clutch the top part of the controller in a very uncomfortable hand position and hope that I timed it right.

At least I'm halfway there, 8/16 for Dedication/Time.

Wow, I only got 3 so far. lol

So Bungie.net says there are more achievements, but I haven't checked my 360 yet. I was almost done !

Anyway, here are the achievements-

I hate luck-based achievements. I really do.

The way I see it, achievements should be some long task you set out to do, like Zombie Genocidest in Left 4 Dead. These tend to make me not want to get them because I've already gotten most of them. I got a Rocket Race kill, I got a double kill from the grave (actually three in one match, each one was sticky related), I destroy vehicles using Armor Lock all the time, so why do I have to do this again? At least they aren't all locked to DLC maps like the Halo 3 ones were.

Oh, and I'm glad none of the Reach achievements in general are connected to one playlist. Mongoose Mowdown was quite stupid, and Two for One can die in a fire that causes freezer burn and regular burn.

I am haunted to this day that I was never able to get Two for One...*shivers*

Oh, Two for One. Hardest achievement ever. Also the last achievement I needed to get all of the H3 ones
Also how the [Diet Dr. Pepper] do they expect people to get kills in rocket race?

Splatters still work, splash damage can push people out into the water...

Dude, I really hate assist challenges. They may seem easy, but they're not. I've only gotten like 13/25 and I think that's all I'm gonna get today.

I never thought I'd say this, but I recommend Elite Slayer for those. Plasma Pistoling makes them so easy.

Well I got 16/16. That boosted me back up to about 30000 cR after I spent everything on Gold Visor last night.

Now to just save up 180000 for the Mark V Shoulders and I'll be happy until I suddenly want to get Gungnir.

Dude, that's awesome. I so far only have 9/16 and that maybe all that I'm gonna get.

Today's challenges were pretty easy. I still haven't gotten 200 grunts killed yet and I don't think I will. I only feel sorry for all the Moa I killed today. lol

I only need 4 more! Though this won't do much for me, I'm going from Warrant Officer Grade 3 to Captain... taking a long time... only 30,000 more Cr to go....

You wanna kill grunts? Play the Gruntpocalypse mode on Firefight a few times. There's easily 75 to 100 that'll spawn over the course of the game, then just rinse and repeat.

The Challenge had to be done in Campaign. It wasn't that bad, I got it in about 2.5 missions, it just takes time and gets annoying when the AI kill them first.

I got the weekly today. I must say, two of the challenges today screamed "ONI SWORD BASE!" to me.

You mean the kill 400 enemies & 45 covenant leaders?

Got the weekly today, it boosted me to Captain

I am sooo close to getting the weekly challenge. I only have one more to get and I'm halfway done with it (72/125 players killed on multiplayer today).
