Hey everyone! You all know how annoying it is to get the point achievements. Dont know what i mean? They are the ones where you need a certain amount of point in the level to get an achievement.
Here is a list of them (Please tell me if i made a mistake)
Level - Points Required - Achievement Name
Sierra 117 - 15000 points - Guerilla
Crows Nest - 15000 points - Demon
Tsavo Highway - 15000 points - Cavalier
The Storm - 15000 points - Askar
Floodgate - 15000 points - Exterminator
The Ark - 50000 points - Ranger
The Covenant - 50000 points - Vanguard
Cortana - 15000 points - Orpheus
Halo - 15000 points - Reclaimer
So far, i have gotten every single one except for The Ark, and i have only been playing on Normal.
Here starts the Guide!
How to Start:
The best way to do this is on co-op, with the point score on (Press "X",) on free-for-all, and most importantly, on Normal Difficuilty.
The skulls you want: Every Gold Skull, excluding the 1st and 2nd. If you dont think you will die, leave the 1st one on. The 2nd one is trickier, but if you really think you can manage, leave that one on too.
What to Do:
Press Start
Once you are in the game realize this.
You enimies:
Are Upgraded (Grunt Ultras, Brute Leaders etc)
Throw more grenades.
Throw grenades right before they die.
Are immune to normal shots (not all the way, but its now hard to kill a grunt with only an assult rifle)
Drop less ammo.
You can't see them on your radar.
And so much more!
What i like about turning all these skulls on, is the ridiculous amount of points you get. A brute goes from 60 to 600. Scarabs go from 500 to 6000, even grunts and drones and jackals are now over 100!
What you do, is make your way through the level like you usually do. Make sure you go slow though, as everyone's weapon are now supierior to you, and you are the weakest link.
It will take a long time to get all the way through the level, so make enough time to do this.
My Strategies:
The reason i like Co-op is because you can get a friend to help you, or leave him behind to stay safe. Also, he can supply you extra ammo if need be. Just be sure to hide him well, and check back on him every so often to make sure he doesnt die.
Save the good weapons for when you need it the most! So many times during the game you are faced against invincible monsters, and you do not want to be in a situation like this with only a battle rifle and plasma rifle left...
Use the Plasma Pistol! Even with the skull on it drains brute shields right off! It also stops ghosts so you can hi-jack them easier.
Blow up the whole Wraith. Do not just kill the Brutes driving it. It you climb onto it from behind, and stick it, you will get over 2500 points! This is way better then the 1200 you can get from only the Brutes.
TAKE YOUR TIME! Too many times people rush through these. It doesnt work. When you die, you will lose TONS of points. There seems to never be a checkpoint when you need it most, so be on your toes!
Thats it!
If anyone wants to add, please tell me what i should add. I'm sure i will think of more things later as well.
And remember, Be Careful
