The Silent Cartographer (Level): Difference between revisions

Proceed down the hall you just came from and enter the room that previously held Hunters. You will be met by Elites with Active Camo. They are unshielded so simply find them and kill them with a flurry of bullets. If you are playing on a harder difficulty, you may wish to try and just run through the room to the ramp. They will not follow you into the room but will stand at the doorway. You can then shoot them down or stick them if you wish. If you would rather, just ignore them. Head up the ramp and to your right there will be three overshields. Pick one of these up. Now take your pistol and snipe the grunts off of the mini island on the beach. You now have two options. You can go back the way you came, kill a number of Jackals and make your way to the Warthog, (assuming you left it behind) and proceed around the island. The other option is to look two your left of the cliff you are standing on next to the overshields and find a small narrow slope. Position yourself looking at the slope with the lower part below you and the higher part in front of you. Walk onto it being careful to hug the wall. Turn around and walk down the slope and off the end and fall the remaining distance to the beach. You can kill the Jackals or ignore them. Grab the Warthog and drop your MA5B for the Rocket launcher if you choose. Drive the Warthog around the island the same way you have been for the duration of the level until you get back to the structure with the locked door. There will be a small party of Jackals waiting nearby the facility, just run them over. In front of it will be two Hunters. You can use the Rocket Launcher on them or my personal choice, the pistol. Drive the Warthog into the hallways of the facility as far as you can go and to the right down the ramp. You'll need it later. Proceed down the corridor and back to the locked door. You should see that it is now unlocked and open.  

==Part 3: Shafted==

You can take a right and see a short movie clip or just proceed to the left and down the hall. Melee the Elite in the back who was standing with his back turned to the door. Now carefully get a idea of your surroundings. There is a Elite out of the door right next to the dead Elite with a column almost immediately. Around that is an Elite and a Grunt. There will be other grunts circling the floor and a couple on a balcony circling the top of the room. Eliminate these anyway you wish. To your left is a door that immediately on the other side of there are jackals. Kill them and proceed down the ramps. In the next room there will be Jackals on Patrol in a long U-shaped hallway. Here is also a weapon stash. In the adjoining room are a pair of Hunters and sometimes a Jackal. Kill them and proceed down the ramps just behind them. In the next room there will be a door on the floor level which you can enter and immediately turn left. Sitting there just for you will be your very own active camo. Grab it and jump off of the platform you are standing on. Melee all of the grunts and Elites and proceed down the ramps to another control room. Activate the map (the Silent Cartographer). Head back upstairs.
