===What We Have Here is a Failure To Communicate===
So the Slipspace Portal has delivered you somewhere.  Look to the sides of the hallway and swap out your hardlight shield for an [[Z-2500 Automated Protection Drone|Auto Sentry]].  Advance forward.  You'll arrive at a console that you'll insert [[Cortana]] into and she'll tell you that you need to deactivate some power lines to Communicate with [[Infinity]].  Hop through the Portal that appears and get ready to fight.

As you come out of your little start area you'll encounter a few crawlers that run away.  Don't waste your ammo here, wait for the real fight.  Advance again and your going to encounter a pack of Crawlers.  They'll fall easy enough to a headshot so use your magnum and dispatch them quickly.  Move again and activate the light bridge.  Cross it and you'll encounter your first Knight in a similar fashion to the Sangheili from [[Dawn (level)/Walkthrough|Dawn]].  Watch him run away and advance again. You're going to encounter another pack of Crawlers, a Watcher and a Knight.  Deploy your Auto Sentry here.  It's very good at keeping the watcher out of your hair while you deal with the Crawlers.  Kill them with headshots then redeploy your Auto Sentry and finish off the Watcher.  With any luck it will only take a single burst from your Assault Rifle thanks to the Auto Sentry.  Now the Knight, on Legendary these guys are hella tough.  they regenerate shields quickly, they teleport out of your line of fire and they close really fast and can melee you to death before you can think about it (And if you don't kill the watcher first they get to have a hardlight shield and someone to resurrect them after they die).  Use the Auto Sentry to distract and short bursts to kill him.  Swap out your Assault rifle for the light rifle he dropped.  It's similar to a [[Battle Rifle|BR85 Heavy Barrel Service Rifle]]/[[DMR|M395 Designated Marksman Rifle]] combo.  It has the three round burst when not zoomed and a single high power shot when zoomed in.  Advance into the structure.  If you don't have any ammo left for your Magnum (and you're not trying for the [[This is my Rifle, this is my Gun]] achievement) grab a suppressor off the ammo crate on the wall.  Advance again and you'll encounter another Knight.  Deploy your Auto Sentry, close and using the suppressor in short bursts take it out.  If you go to the right you'll encounter another Knight several Crawlers and a Watcher.  If you go straight to the left you'll skip them and save some time and ammo.  Stay left and advance to another platform.  Several Crawlers will jump up onto the platform, kill them with head shots then look to the far right wall, you'll see some more crawlers climbing here.  Headshot them then refill your lightrifle from the crate on the right hand side.  Look down and forward and you'll see a [[Knight Battlewagon]] deploying a Watcher.  Take out the Watcher then deploy your Auto Sentry and take out the Knight when he jumps up to the platform.  Finish off any crawlers you see below and swap your suppressor for the Knight's Scattershot.  Advance into the hallway.  On the left there is an alcove with reloads for your Lightrifle and Scattershot.

Advance again to the door but do not go through yet.  There is a large Forerunner structure.  To the right side you should see a Knight deploying a Watcher.  Kill the Watcher then the Knight using your Lightrifle and Auto Sentry.  Run back to the alcove and refill your ammo and Grenades if you need.  Once your full up advance out of the hall but don't leave the ledge.  Kill all the crawlers you can see, there are plenty around, and if you can spot the Watchers kill them too.  Once everything you can '''see''' is dead drop down and go to the right side of the structure.  You will be directed to destroy three power spheres that control the shields to the place you need to go.  Kill the first one with a melee then look out the other side you should be able to see the second one well enough to shoot it with the Lightrifle.  Once the second one is dead finish off the crawlers and the Knight.  Before moving to station three, finish off the remaining ground floor enemies.  There are a few crawlers a Knight and a Watcher.  Now take a minute and go into the central structure.  Using the Scattershot clear out the Knight Battlewagon on top. Reload your weapons and go back to the entrance to the central structure.  On the '''opposite''' side to the power core you need to destroy deploy your Auto sentry.  Now run to the core and blow it up.  Two Knights will appear at the entrance to the central tower.  If you were quick enough you will have enough time for the Auto sentry to distract them while you sneak behind them up the tower to the Pylon.  deactivate the Pylon then jump through the Portal.
