| Level 8:
Two Betrayals |
| |
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
| When
this level begins, you're being pounded by the Sentinels. Immediately switch
to your shotgun and run forward - there's a transparent barrier that you
can take cover behind. |
|
When your shields are recharged,
head into the open and take on the Sentinels - a shotgun blast or two will
do the job. The trick when fighting Sentinels is to never stand still, or
their lasers will get a lock on you. |
|
When Cortana tells you to
hijack a Banshee near the bottom of the pyramid, don't head all the way
down into the snow just yet. Continue along that same level through the
short tunnel and grab the rocket launcher. |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| Use rockets to take out the
tank, clear out the remaining Covenant, and snag that Banshee. |
|
As you fly toward the waypoint,
use the Banshee's firepower to clear out the landing area, then touch down
and head inside to the first power generator. To hover with the Banshee,
hold [S] on the left analog joystick, and you can snipe at your leisure. |
|
After you step inside the
pulse generator's beam, which trashes it and depletes your shields, you'll
be swarmed by Sentinels. The safest move is to immediately run to the side
of the room that's opposite the door and take cover until your shields recharge.
You can then either fight the Sentinels or just leave them behind and head
out to your Banshee. |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| Fly the Banshee down to the
lower bridge, use its weapons to wipe the bridge clean, and battle through
the interior to Canyon B. It's a somewhat long but - by now - standard fight. |
|
When you arrive at Canyon
B, you'll have several Covenant vehicles to take out. First target the Ghost,
then the Banshee, and lastly the tank. |
|
When all is quiet, ride the
spare Ghost ahead a ways until you reach the scene pictured above. To your
right are two Hunters and to your left is a tank and some Elites. |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| First, though, dismount and
deal with the Banshee overhead. Then mop up the area using your Ghost's
lasers and your rocket launcher. If you run out of ammo early on, you can
always climb into one of the Banshees and use its weaponry. |
|
When all is clear, take a
Banshee up to the waypoint that marks the second pulse generator. Right
nearby, you'll find a Covenant "airport." Depending on your mood,
health, and ammo, you can either wipe the Covenant out or just ignore them,
or you can land the Banshee, and head inside for the pulse generator. |
|
At the pulse generator, you'll
find Sentinels battling the Flood. Hang back, let one side win, then clear
out the rest. Step inside the pulse generator's beam to trash it and be
prepared for the Flood to jump you while you're vulnerable. |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| Fly your Banshee down from
the generator and into the tunnel toward Cortana's waypoint. Use its weaponry
to clear out the enemies in the tunnel and fly it forward until you're forced
to ditch it. Soldier on until you reach Canyon A. |
|
Once you're there, grab one
of the Ghosts and ride forward. You'll have to deal with one small skirmish
between the Flood and Covenant. |
|
Just beyond that, you'll arrive
on the scene of the biggest battle you've seen yet. You're simply too outnumbered
here to actually win the fight, so creep along the right - hand wall instead
and do your best to avoid drawing attention to yourself. |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| Your goal is one of the Banshees.
Slip into it and take off - fast - before the Covenant wise up. When you're
airborne, head for the waypoint. |
|
The landing area is fiercely
guarded by some Sentinels, which are actually really good at taking out
Banshees, so your best move is to practically crash - land the Banshee and
run inside before you're blown out of the sky. The third pulse generator
is guarded by more Sentinels, and once you've cleared them out and trashed
the generator, the level is over. |
