After you've defeated the local Covenant force, you'll get a new Mission Objective. You need to defend the building from attacks until the Pelican arrives. Pay attention to Johnson's audio cues in the next part as they'll help you target and dispatch foes quickly and effectively. | After you've defeated the local Covenant force, you'll get a new Mission Objective.

An Elite appears on the roof of the building on the other side of the street. The rest come through the two smaller lanes uner it.

Jackals and at least one Elite will appear in alleyway leading from the crash site to the courtyard. A well aimed grenade should do the trick. You can also use the machinegun mounted on the second floor. | Jackals and at least one Elite will appear in alleyway leading from the crash site to the courtyard.

After several waves, an enemy Phantom will make an appearance. Take cover inside to evade its fire. (Or destroy the guns with your machinegun.)

The pilot | The pilot says the courtyard's too small and announces its intention to land on the other side of the buildings. After the Pelican flies away two Hunters will break through the metal gates. The easiest way of disposing them would be the machinegun. However, if you prefer you can just as well engage in a good old fashioned melee. Do note that it's now much harder to kill a Hunter by shooting its back than it was in Halo: CE. If you go for the machinegun, take cover when the Hunter's weapons start to glow. | ||
After the Hunters are down, trade your somewhat useless SMG for the not so useless sniper rifle and head through the gate and down the alley. Johnson didn't need it anyways, he's going to leave. You should turn a corner and see 3 Shield Jackals and one Sniper Jackal hidden on a platform. Equip your BR-55, zoom in, shoot. As you are shooting at these Jackals, two more rush around a corner. Give them the same lead-injection treatment. | After the Hunters are down, trade your somewhat useless SMG for the not so useless sniper rifle and head through the gate and down the alley.
