Nice imagery there Chiecken. :-) [i]Cortana[/i] can be a sucker to get through, but once you do it once it becomes significantly easier on subsequent playthroughs; for example my first successful run was the product of over 30 attempts, yet several months later I tried again and did it first try. As long as the enemies spawn with reasonable weapons (aka not swords and shotguns on Shielded Forms) you should be fine as long as you aren't afrais to get up close and personal with the weaker human and Brute combat forms. Good luck.
