*It is possible to methodically set-up for the final battle first by triggering the Brute Chieftain spawning in. Next, if playing on fan difficulties SLASO or CLASO, kill the remaining Brute Stalkers and/or Jackals, and stockpile Plasma Pistols and/or Equipment via taking them to where the Chief activates the Cartographer. It is possible for the Chief to drop Plasma Pistols and Equipment down to the bottom level from the terminal. Once the Chief is set-up, it is also possible for him to carefully fall down from the terminal down onto the bottom level, where the Chieftain will only cheer and will be alone. In order to fall down safely, it is best to slowly inch your way off the top level of the terminal until you fall or, alternatively, fall down back first into the Chieftain, killing him. After that, it is best to stockpile any spare Plasma Rifle, Covenant Carbine, Equipment, or Plasma Pistol for the deloaded Jetpack Brutes. In order to spawn the Jetpack Brutes in, after setting everything up, backtrack to the area where you recently killed the Brute Stalkers and turn around. If done right, you'll hear Johnson say "Hang tight, Chief! We're on our way!" This provides you with a better chance in the aforementioned fan difficulties. | *It is possible to methodically set-up for the final battle first by triggering the Brute Chieftain spawning in.
