Once out of your space fighter, two [[Sangheili Ranger|Elite Rangers]] will pop out of the shielded area. Kill them quickly before they drop back in to the ship. This will leave you with the not insurmountable goal of only six elite Rangers to kill. From where you start there is a walkway that lays perpendicular to you inside the ship. When you and the soldiers drop in stay to the right side. When you hit the bottom, head right to the door and get behind the Weapons holder with the Plasma rifles in it. Use your DMR to pick off the Rangers (It only takes about 5-7 headshots), any that get close, use the Plama Rifle to kill up close. This is not the only way to do this. If you're an absolute artist with the Plasma Rifle you can run around the upper ring and lay waste to them, but this requires tremendous skill as the Rangers are extremely agile and quick and if you get surrounded, which can happen quite easily, you will die. Another school of thought is to stay on that upper beam and hop out if you need to heal up, downside, you have plenty of blind areas and you can be attacked from multiple angles if not careful. In any case whatever strategy you choose here will have inherent drawbacks, but all are viable, it's simply a matter of finding which is most comfortable for you. When you're through here move quickly away from the door. As soon as it opens toss a grenade and follow that with a flurry of Plasma fire. That should kill anything in the hallway. Before you go down the hallway, head to the upper ring and right above the door there is a weapons case with [[Type-31 Rifle|Needle Rifles]] in it. Swap your DMR for this and head into the hallway. As you get to the far end, the door will open and you will see many grunts in the center with [[Huragok|Engineer]] shielding, to the far left on a raised platform there are two Elite Ranges with [[Type-52 Special Applications Rifle|Focus Rifles]] and to the far right on the raised platform there are two more Elite Rangers with [[Type-51 Directed Energy Rifle/Improved|Plasma Repeaters]]. Take out the two Rangers on the left. Then the two on the right. If Grunts come into your field of fire kill them, but otherwise leave them for now. Once the Elites are dead mop up the Grunts. If you need to, take out the Engineer first, then mop up. Go deactivate the shield to let the [[Dropship 77-Troop Carrier|Pelican]] in.
Once out of your space fighter, two [[Sangheili Ranger|Elite Rangers]] will pop out of the shielded area. Kill them quickly before they drop back in to the ship. This will leave you with the not insurmountable goal of only six elite Rangers to kill. You should be able to get the drop on a few of the Rangers below, so assassinate them if you can, or use the Energy Sword. Use your DMR to pick off the remaining Rangers (It only takes about 5-7 headshots). The Rangers are extremely mobile so don't allow yourself to get surrounded. When you're through here move quickly away from the door. As soon as it opens toss a grenade and kill whatever Covenant are left with the DMR. Head down the hallway to get to the hangar. There are many Ultra Grunts in the center with an [[Huragok|Engineer]] hovering above them providing shields for them. On the far left, standing on a raised platform, are two Elite Rangers with [[Type-52 Special Applications Rifle|Focus Rifles]] and to the far right on an identical raised platform are two more Elite Rangers with [[Type-51 Directed Energy Rifle/Improved|Plasma Repeaters]]. Kill the Engineer first, then take out the two Rangers on the left to get rid of the Focus Rifles. The other Rangers will probably move around, either on the floor or jumping up to your area, deal with them appropriately. If Grunts come into your field of fire kill them, but otherwise leave them for now. Once the Elites are dead mop up the Grunts. Go deactivate the shield to let the [[Dropship 77-Troop Carrier|Pelican]] in.
