It's important to note that playing on Heroic or Legendary will change the battle significantly, not just in the amount of waves but also in tactics. For instance, the turrets should mostly be ignored on Legendary. On the highest difficulty they will be at most just distractions, and are too far away to reactivate without getting swarmed on the way. Additionally, using a Banshee also changes. On Heroic, it's pretty safe to use a Banshee to rain fire down from above. But on Legendary enemy projectiles travel so fast and vehicle health is so weak that it's best to avoid fighting them lest you get shot down. Additionally, enemy Banshees will attack you, and a new one will spawn for each one you kill, so it's not worth it. | It's important to note that playing on Heroic or Legendary will change the battle significantly, not just in the amount of waves but also in tactics.

The safest spot in the bunker is right behind the sandbags. They can absorb huge amounts of fire, and you're basically invulnerable should you crouch there unless a grenade is tossed behind it, so stay alert. It's best to not go past the sandbags when fighting. Past there will be a lot of open land with no cover, and the enemies usually won't come past the sandbags unless they're berserking or kamikazing. | The safest spot in the bunker is right behind the sandbags.

Your loudout at this point, as said earlier, should be a Hologram, a fully loaded needle rifle, and a fully charged plasma pistol. After activating the first turret, head to the bunker with your team. Your priority here right now is to hijack a Banshee before the enemies turn up. This Banshee will be for dealing with the Wraiths that will spawn every two waves. Deploy a hologram to lure and distract the two overhead and look for a Jetpack (and grenade launcher if you want to save plasma pistol ammo.) Fly up to the roof of the bunker and EMP a Banshee when it comes close, then board it at the prompt.

You'll be stashing it here for now to keep it safe from enemies. Then grab a DMR and keep your needle rifle handy as you wait for the Covenant infantry to come. | ||

This wave is only on Legendary, and when you hear the percussion beats begin, that's when you've known it's started. It can start when there's a few Elites and the Ghost still alive, so keep an eye out and kill them quickly before the next Phantom arrives. | This wave is only on Legendary, and when you hear the percussion beats begin, that's when you've known it's started.

Soon a Phantom will drop off Hunters and some Brutes. But fortunately, you've got something set aside for the two behemoths: a Spartan Laser. Grab the laser laying in a case right in front of the closed door, then carefully aim at the two. It takes two laser shots to kill both, so don't waste any of the four shots. | Soon a Phantom will drop off Hunters and some Brutes.

It takes two laser shots to kill both, so don't waste any of the four shots. Hang back and crouch so the Hunters don't see you while you aim. If your teammates get in your way, it's best to stop charging and try again rather than risking a missed shot. If the Hunters survive, use any remaining rockets or plasma grenades. | ||
When they're dead, take out any remaining Elites, Jackals, and Brutes. It pays to keep tabs on your needle rifle in the previous waves, as it might despawn if you don't pick it up every once in a while. There won't be nearly as many infantry here as there were the previous waves, so this part should quickly pass. | When they're dead, take out any remaining Elites, Jackals, and Brutes.

When you hear Halsey say: "Well done, Spartans. I'm opening the laboratory door", it means the level is almost complete. Kill any infantry left alive then land your Banshee and hit the door's button to end the mission. | When you hear Halsey say: "Well done, Spartans.
