===Hunters in the Dark===

Now comes the tough part. You and your teammates are put up close against two [[Mgalekgolo|Hunters]] in this fairly small lab. While Hunters' melee range isn't quite as large as it was in ''Halo: Reach'', they've got a lot of health and most of their attacks will down you in one shot. Additionally, if you get too far out of their range, instead of firing a complete fuel rod, they'll fire a dozen mini-shots that will track you and quickly strip your shield. While this attack is slightly less deadly because it's not instantly fatal, it does screw up attempts to try and pick at them from long range, because they're now better at doing that than you. What you've got on your side is your teammates and any of the weapons you've brought down here.

When the fight starts, one of the Hunters will emerge by the elevator while the other one will stay back for now. The first Hunter always turns its back for some reason at the start, so target him and try to stick his back with plasma grenades. When he turns, duck into the elevator. The elevator is the safest place in this room; despite the cracked glass, it actually can't break and they never enter inside it. Blue Team, at your targeting, should open fire on the Hunter with their two Hydra launchers. They've got enough explosive firepower to blow off the Hunter's backplate and keep him defensive, but it can still overwhelm them. So when his back is exposed, sneak up behind the Hunter, scope in the Blaze of Glory, and then shoot it in the back. Two meatshots should be enough to kill it. ''Run'' if it turns midshot because the Hunter dominates at close range. If you're using the energy sword, it could take faster, but you'll be even closer to the Hunter than with the shotgun. Strike hard, but don't get impatient.

When the first Hunter dies, the second Hunter will go berserk. Its eyes will glow, green electricity will spark between its spines, and it will increase its rate of fire. The enraged Hunter can fire two fuel rods at a time, and will charge for you for longer. You need Blue Team to keep it on the defensive. When the first Hunter dies, target the second and fall behind cover. Blue Team's grenade barrage will force it to defend, letting you sneak around to blast it in the back again.

When the Hunters are both dead, follow the waypoint to the vent you need to open to progress. The Blaze of Glory isn't necessary after this section, especially on Legendary, but the only weapons you'll find here are assault rifles and battle rifles. Grab more grenades if you need them then follow your team down the vent.
