FLAMETHROWER VS FLOOD HALO FULL

FLAMETHROWER VS FLOOD HALO FULL

There are four Shotguns in the Storage Area, along with Battle Rifle ammo and the Assault Rifles dropped by your fallen allies, so make sure you have a full amount of ammo before moving on. Scour the area for more Shotgun ammo-this is your main weapon during this mission, so always be on the look out for more cartridges. The Flood don't carry weapons until later on in the level, so melee weapons are quite useful against them. Make sure you have your Gravity Hammer at the ready, and take full advantage of its splash damage-a single blow can usually wipe out several Combat Forms. Jumping in to save the Marines is a risky decision-seeing as a single Pod infector can make easy work of one, their chances of survival are close to nil, so rushing in an effort to save them will only leave you surrounded by enemies. The safest course of action at this point would be to hang back and wait for the Flood to approach you. Collect Frag Grenades, a Gravity Hammer, and a Shotgun en route to your first encounter with the Flood.Īs you approach the Marines-some of which are gathered behind a pile of sandbags, standing next to weapons lockers-Combat Forms will drop down and start attacking your allies. If you kill this Flood during his jump (or right as he starts to jump), he will drop the Fog skull. Just after the checkpoint-right when a Marine says, 'All squads, report!'-a Flood Combat Form will appear on the roof and jump over the street. Make your way down the hill, and enter the Storage Area where you previously fought the Brute Chieftain. When you're done with that, proceed as you normally would.īacktrack down the path you took to get to the Anti-Aircraft Battery. For quick kills without using a lot of ammo, aim for their chests to kill the Pod infectors that reside inside of them. They will begin to retreat, though if you fire at them, they may turn to face you, and strafe instead of running away. There, in the distance, if you are quick enough, you may see several Flood Combat Forms assault a small group of Marines. If you're skilled with the Battle Rifle and are trying to get the Exterminator achievement, you may want to look to the right of the path that is about to be described.

Weapon instructions in this level can be freely followed, as you will receive new weapons after this level - the Battle Rifle and a Sniper Rifle. Tilt is not recommended on this or any other Flood level. Mythic is a consequence-free multiplier, as there are no Covenant enemies present on this level. Due to its short length, this level is arguably the easiest level to beat with Iron activated. You may not want to activate Fog if you aren't skilled at close combat with the Flood. All other skulls except Famine are okay on this mission, so try activating one of them too. Catch is, as in all other Flood-only missions, a consequence-free multiplier-the Flood don't use grenades, so leaving it inactivated is a waste. Tough Luck may cost you a few multi-kill bonuses, but grenades aren't a vital part of your arsenal during this mission. The recommended skulls on Legendary are Tough Luck and Catch. You can test the best technique of dispatching them without dying, because although there are some instructions about where to go and what to do, there are a billion other techniques that work just as well. This is a good starter mission for engaging the Flood. Keep in mind the useful weapons when in combat with them and any other Flood, especially on higher difficulties. This is the first mission in which you fight the Flood, making it a new experience when fighting the newly evolved Pure Forms. 4.2 Shadow of Intent (Rally Point Alpha)įinding your way around Floodgate shouldn't be much of a problem-you're backtracking your footsteps all the way to Lakebed A in the previous level.3.2 Shadow of Intent (Rally Point Alpha).3.1 It Followed Me Home (Mission Start).
