Midnight/Walkthrough

This is a walkthrough for the Halo 4 campaign level Midnight. It is written for play at the Legendary difficulty, but contains notes for lower difficulties. It is important to note that as this walkthrough at the Legendary difficulty, all strengths of enemies reflected are at the Legendary level.

Blow this Thing and Go Home
This section is quite repetitive, so here are a few tips for getting past the trench:
 * Always destroy the point defense guns, especially when they are in your way or are clustered in one area. Doing so would lower the chances of getting hit.
 * Sometimes, there are some tunnels are on the sides and their entrances and exits are blocked by orange energy orbs. If you destroy them, you can use the tunnel as cover.
 * Boost if you are in open space, but beware of the moving doors.

Once you have made it past the "trench run", you will be deposited in the first real combat section. The large, bowl-like area you will find yourself in is the top of the Didact's ship, and your job is to get inside it. To do so, you must destroy the four anti-ship cannons around the ring of the bowl. Their power cores will be marked with way points; simply pick one to start with as a target and fly in a slow circle around the bowl. Along the way, destory any point defense guns that you can. Each one you take out reduces the amount of fire you have to dodge, meaning that you can destory the main power cores easier. The moment the last one is eliminated, a cutscene starts, ending the vehicle segment.
