===Brutes. Even Jackals Don't Like Them===
===Brutes. Even Jackals Don't Like Them===
Exit out the door and a Spirit will pop up with a pack full of Brutes. Ignore them and head left quickly down the stairs and kill the Brute harassing a civilian. If you are quick enough you can sneak up behind him and land an assassination. ''Alternatively: you can use your Magnum or a Needler if you have one to kill him.'' As you link up with UNSC forces, kill the next Brute ahead of you as they "play" with the civilian. The Spirit will drop off three additional Brutes and another one is in the back near the food kiosk pestering another civilian. The Needler really shines in this section as it only takes 6 needles to supercombine on a non shielded target. Once they are all dead, a door will open and an additional Brute with three Skirmishers will emerge. Take them out. A well placed frag thrown at the door can yield good results as well. With all enemies in the area dead, head back the way you came and go up to the upper level. There is some Sprint you can swap out and a Sniper Rifle! You will be needing this in next area and throughout the end of the mission. Once your set, head to the atrium doors to the west.

After you hit the button, two Phantoms will fly in to drop off reinforcements in the upper and lower courtyards. The lower courtyard consists of a pair of Brutes, some Skirmishers, and a Brute Captain wielding a [[Gravity hammer (fiction)|Gravity Hammer]]. The Upper courtyard consists of an additional pair of Brutes, a group of Grunts, and ''another'' Brute Captain with a Hammer. This guide will start with the latter as you are close and have a elevation advantage over the enemies entering in the lower part of the atrium. The Sniper Rifle is key here. '''Note:''' If you are not adept to sniping you can use the DMR and the Needler to take out enemies as previously mentioned.

As the Phantom lands in the upper courtyard, take out your Sniper Rifle and wait for the pair of Brutes to get out. Drill them with a headshot. Kill the group of Grunts next with a well placed grenade or headshot them with the DMR or Magnum. Immediately switch back to your Sniper Rifle and snipe the Captain as he gets out. Once the upper courtyard is clear, move to focus on the lower courtyard invaders. Mind the Skirmishers and focus on the Brutes. Kill the Brute pair and nail the Captain with some sniper headshots. Clean up the area by eliminating all the Skirmishers and head to the elevator.

After exiting the elevator head to the outside where the ODST’s (aka The Bullfrogs) are engaging in fighting some Banshees. There is a DMR crate to your left (which also contains a shotgun) and one of the ODST’s has a Rocket Launcher you could swap out for. The choice is yours. Watch your footing and head to the right to the gates that contain the jetpack and equip it.

There are multiple routes through the next area and it will be up to you how you want to fight the Covenant forces. A good tactical advantage is to pick off the enemies from afar with the DMR and/or Sniper Rifle.

This next area is somewhat of a shooting gallery as you can eliminate enemies across the way. However they can shoot at you too so take cover when needed! There will be some more Grunts, Jackals, two Brute Captains and another Jackal Sniper with a Focus Rifle. Kill him first otherwise he'll annoy you stripping your shields. Clear out the cannon fodder and use a head shot capable weapon on the two Captains. Once clear, cross the bridge and keep moving up. A good strategy is to hang a left at the stairs after the bridge and go West up a ramp to the level the Marines are standing on. This will trigger a checkpoint but will also trigger another Captain wielding a Hammer. This Brute is thirsty for blood and will kill everything in his path. Hang back and use your Sniper Rifle to nail him dead but be careful of your allies and the civilians when you do this.

Before you join the rest of your allies at the big stairs, you should note that at the very top of the level you need to get to, there will be a Captain with a Concussion Rifle. On Legendary difficulty, this will be a Brute Chieftain with a FUEL ROD GUN! Take cover quick and use your sniper rifle to kill the nasty Brute up top. Note: He tends to hide around up there so be patient with locating him. Climb the long stairs (or jetpack) up and kill the small group of Grunts here. There is some ammo in an upper balcony above some bathrooms to your northwest you can use. Eliminate every alien and head east to the landing pad.
