Official Halo 3 *Mythic Difficulty* Guide (ALL SKULLS ON!!!) on HBO

[quote][b]Moderator-Approved[/b] - Please note that all forum rules apply and are enforced with extra strictness in this thread. Thanks. ~[i]Foman[/i][/quote] [quote][u][b]Mythic Update 9/11/2010[/b][/u] You can now keep yourself up to date with the Mythic madness by following [url=http://twitter.com/MythicTyrant]the Team Mythic Twitter page[/url]! Stay tuned for the latest Mythic updates :-)[/quote] [quote][u][b]The Halo 3 Mythic Update 4/8/2010[/b][/u] Reach is right around the corner, and you know what that means, the time for Mythic ODST is running short! With only a few months left until the release of the highly anticipated Halo: Reach, we're now kicking Mythic into high gear in oder to churn out the ODST walkthrough over the summer to give Halo fans everywhere a better chance at conquering one of the greatest games of all time on the hardest setting ever recognized by the community. Stay tuned for more! -------------------------------------------------------------- I'd also like to take the time to thank Bungie for the massive support they've shown towards our community, and a special thanks to both Tom and Urk who went out of their way to make it all possible. You guys rock :-) Thank you, Louis (HBO Head Honcho), for not just hosting one, but rather [i]two[/i] of my Mythic walkthroughs and making it easier for players around the globe to get a better grasp of the Mythic Challenge. Couldn't have done it without you! And also a big thanks to AJ at Halocharts for implementing Mythic into his epic campaign challenges. Those shiney new Mythic medals are items that our conquerors wear with pride and still are a major incentive for those who are currently still getting their feet wet in the ocean of Mythic greatness before them. You guys are ALL awesome :-)[/quote] [url=http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/5669/mythiciconna4.jpg]Halo 3 Mythic Difficulty[/url] (logo design by Vincent K) [url=http://www.bungie.net/Online/Halo3UserContentDetails.aspx?h3fileid=52260145]Team Mythic[/url] (taken by Tyrant) [u][b]Take the "Mythic Challenge" Today![/b][/u] What exactly is Mythic difficulty? Completing the campaign on Legendary, all 13 skulls activated, scoring enabled, and making it from start to finish on each individual mission without dying. This applies to both Solo Mythic and co-op (aka Multi-Mythic). My Halo 3 Mythic Walkthrough is now available to view on [url=http://halo.bungie.org/]HBO's[/url] website. This guide includes a text-based walkthrough of each segment of all nine missions and contains videos of all critcal areas. All nine videos will remain on my file share. A special thanks goes out to Louis Wu for not only hosting the walkthrough on his site, but also for all the hard work he has put into cleaning up my Mythic guide mess and turning it into something legable XD All nine missions are available on his site along with videos of all criticals areas and even a special "Tips" section to help get you started. [b]Coming Soon![/b] [b]Mythic 2.0[/b] is now on the horizon. New strategies are being implemented into most of the missions in order to provide you easier avenues of success on your Mythic quest. These "upgrades" are not meant to fully take the place of the original walkthrough, but rather enhance it. Each 2.0 Strategy Guide will contain step by step instructions on the altered strategies, and a full file share video will be included as well. Look for the "2.0 Guide" link below each each mission to simplify [i]your[/i] experience! :-) And now I give you... [url=http://halo.bungie.org/gameplay/halo3_slaso/]"The Halo 3 Mythic Walkthrough" by Tyrant[/url] Also, be sure to check out the [i]massive[/i] update given to the walkthrough pages courtesy of Louis Wu.

Read the rules BEFORE posting! [quote][/quote] [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=31741231]The Quest for *Multi-Mythic Difficulty*[/url] Taking it up a notch, watch as Team Mythic Alpha fights for first place titles in the Multi-Mythic Marathon (Coop + Legendary + all skulls + scoring + zero deaths/saves). [quote][/quote] [b]FAQ[/b] Q. What is Mythic?? A. Solo Legendary All Skulls On with zero deaths and zero saves. Each mission must be run from start to finish without dying, saving, or quitting. Q. What is the difference between Mythic Difficulty and SLASO? A. Not much. However SLASO simply defines the game as being played solo legendary all skulls on. Mythic, however, states that there must be zero deaths and zero saves per mission, thereby making Mythic a far greater and more specific challenge. The same rules apply to co-op in the sense that no player may die in order to successfully complete the mission on Co-op Mythic. Q. Is there any special ending for beating the game on Mythic? A. No. It's the same as the Legendary ending. I imagine the people who would've been able to witness a Mythic ending would have been too few for such an effort. Bungie knew this. Q. Do you get any new armor or reward for beating it on Mythic? A. No. You do not unlock anything simply for beating the game on Mythic. That is unless you have yet to beat the game just on Legendary in which you would obtain the normal achievements associated with it. Q. Do I have to have the silver skulls on for it to count as Mythic? A. Yes. All skulls means [u]ALL[/u] skulls. Q. Can I have a friend help me complete the game on Mythic? A. Well then it wouldn't be solo Mythic now would it? Q. Do you have to turn on campaign scoring? A. I've decided to update this to cause less confusion. In a word... yes. While it doesn't effect game-play directly, it's the simplest way to prove your success to the rest of the world and is a [i]requirement[/i] to become a member of the Quest for Mythic group. Q. What are the "Kamikaze" videos? A. A separate, speedier, and more skillful avenue for certain areas of the game. Just like the "Slow & Steady" methods, they have been tested multiple times and are proven to work. However they do require excellent reaction time, a vast knowledge of the road ahead, and a fair bit of experience with Mythic. Q. Why was I rejected from your group? A. Simply put, read the rules. 99.9% of the time, it's because you haven't completed a Mythic level with scoring on and uploaded it to your file share. This [i]must[/i] be done in order to gain acceptence into the Mythic group.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Gazas Damn.. I don't remember, but that method was cool, looks hard though. Plus, you're kind of screwed when you're on board anyway. Don't know much about the rest, I would obviously just do my own method. Dealing with the Hunters are easy for me when there are no Marines around because I can just melee them with a Brute Shot or a Spiker. Should be noted that I haven't played in a long while so there's a lot to it that I probably don't even know.[/quote]It's only hard without the equipment to guarantee your safety. Yeah, but I'd prefer skipping the battles. Well, I'll be getting Halo 3 films out soon and I'll include strategies (i.e. faster shortcut to elevator in third tower).

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Gazas Never heard of using the Gravity Lift at the Hunter part. If it helps you then do that, but then you need to find a way to the Scarab. You could use the Missile Pod and try to shoot its back, or even get up on a crane and snipe it. Also, you can get a Mongoose up on the crane and jump to it, but it can get annoying if it only backs up.[/quote][url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCIYoLrY9hg#t=9m3s]Here's the video[/url]. Pause at 9:10. If you didn't kill any enemies you can deploy a bubble shield here or drop down and use the gravity lift. Also, he gets on the Scarab by grenade jumping. Is there a regenerator on this level at that point or is using the missile pod/gravity lift the only reliable methods?

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Gazas [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Sliding Ghost How do I board the Scarab on The Storm? It always backs up and doesn't come any closer.[/quote]Watch my film, it should be like any other film. You're supposed to jump in the Gravity Lift when the Scarab lands. When it lands, it will kind of bob its head forward and then back, that's when you step in the lift so you can land. It takes practice though, like everything else.[/quote]But that's the problem. I want to use the grav lift to skip the Hunters and Chieftain. There's a way to exit the level. I saw it in a speedrun video and used it for the level's megabattle. Grav lift makes it more easier to do it but the bubble shield also works (as cover). But I have successfully done the gravity lift method before, albeit not on Mythic.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Leumas786 Another question, I was inspired to try halo 3 mythic due to the fact that my internet sucks and I keep getting disconnected. My question is, is a video of the playthrough enough to count? Halfway through my sierra run I lost connection so I'm assuming that wouldn't show up on campaign scoring[/quote] This happened on my successful run of The Ark. As long as you're connected when you start and end the mission, the gamestats show up. I disconnected from live just after killing the Scarab on The Ark, reconnected and finished the mission. The stats showed up. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Leumas786 So on Sierra 117 i'm trying to do the method in the guide to skip the first battle but once I get around the first set of brutes the 2 phantoms are still spawning, what's the dealio? Nvm, figured it out, I was taking to long to make it up the rock i think. When I made it up there on the first or second try the phantoms don't appear[/quote] Sierra 117 is my favourite mission, of all time. For the first jump, if you back up too much before jumping, you can hit the loading zone. You also need to be fairly quick making the jump. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Leumas786 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Michael_Archer Hey, good luck Leumas! I thought Halo 3 was easier than Reach...if you got through Reach, you can get through Halo 3.[/quote] Yea, from what I can tell so far, the enemies themselves are easier to kill but the fact that the grunts spam grenades non-stop with precision accuracy is terrible. I think nearly all of my deaths so far have been from grunts with the exception of my most recent attempt where I got sniped. Sierra 117 is pretty tough, the farthest i've gotten so far is into the sniper forest, been trying to beat it most of the day[/quote] I found Halo 3 to be harder, it takes less damage on Halo 3 to die. And punching an enemy doesn't instantly regain your shields/health, they take around 3-4 seconds to fully recharge. Sierra 117 isn't that bad. Wait untill you play The Ark. :)

  • Started Halo 3 mythic today, beat floodgate, nothing special but its a start. I also attempted Sierra 117 got past the first two skirmishes then died in a stupid way. Is it just me or can you absorb more damage on Reach mythic than on Halo 3?

  • Yeah if there was a lazy way to turn on the Skulls then I would most definitely try it. :P But that's the thing too...Skulls were kind of like easter eggs in Halo 2 so it's OK that it the game might be impossible with every single Skull turned on. In Halo 3 they were a feature, difficulty multipliers, which is something every person would use, at least for achievements. So turning all on [i]shouldn't[/i] make the game impossible. That's what I think.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Gazas Space is a factor, that's for sure. The thing is that Bungie [i]didn't[/i] reduce the space in Cairo Station, which makes it fair. I also haven't played Halo 2 SLASO so I don't know whether or not it's fair on that difficulty. But so far I haven't seen anything [i]unfair[/i] in Reach, maybe the ending of LNoS but we did find the Pelican.[/quote]Well I can say from experience that the area needs more space (or cover). Going to the big box on the left side will cause Elites to approach you (one will climb onto the box, giving you some time to nail him with overcharged bolts). I managed to take out 1-2 Ultra Elites with this method, but an Elite went onto the railing and shot me from the side. If that railing could be blocked, I think the last part would be doable on Mythic. Of course, staying back in the elevator also works, but I think it's more riskier.
