Blue Team (level)/Walkthrough: Difference between revisions

Line 81: Line 81:
When most of the Elites are dead or falling back, the Jackal Rangers will come up and harass with their storm rifles. There's a lot of them and they have long sightlines, so use cover and carefully headshot with your pistol, as well as having Blue Team target them. They often like to take position at a platform on the left, so don't move up until they appear to be dead or retreating.

When the remaining Covenant are on the two-storied platform, you have two ways of fighting them. The first is to walk up the platform via its stairs to engage them. This lets you up there quickly but is risky because they have the high ground, so they might charge you on the narrow stairs. The second is to try and flank them by climbing up the crates on the right. This lets you keep some distance from them, though clambering takes time and you may need to jump off if they toss grenades. Pick off the Grunts, and order Blue Team up the stories ahead of you to lure out Elites for noob combos. The last will usually be the Zealot, who will first hang back firing a storm rifle before moving in with a plasma pistol. Do not head up his stairs to engage him; wait for him to charge your teammates for an easy noob combo.

When the music slows, the area is clear. Your pistol is probably half-empty, so swap it for a DMR hidden under the platform's first story. Grab a plasma pistol as well, or if you're using the SMG you can find some ammo for it behind the crates on the back right of the bay.
