Halo 3 – Meta-game finished

Well that was rather tedious. Playing through all the levels wasn’t so bad (except the peultimate one) but getting the fine balance of skulls right so that the enemies were never too hard, but would provide enough points. In the end, I just decided to stick on about 6 skulls, giving me a 10x multiplyer, meaning I never really had to worry about time. I was averaging 2x the required score on each level, including the 50k ones, which I got at least 100k on.

The only problem is that at the start, I had the silver skulls on as well, except Blind. As some of you may know, one of these skulls makes explosions bigger…not smart when the enemy are throwing nades every 5 seconds. So that was quickly turned off, and it made everything so much easier. Aside from that, nothing ever really became difficult.

The only achievements left in the original 1k are the online ones, which isn’t too bad, so I can do them quite easily, then hopefully I can get the Vidmaster achievements for doing the final level with the iron skull on legendary, but i’ll have to find some friends to help out with that. Nokkon has already agreed to help, and i’m thankful, providing he doesn’t use the shotgun again….
