Nightfall/Walkthrough: Difference between revisions

Head to the center of the area; the civilians (if any survived) and Jun will gather here. There will be ordnance here including [[M392 Designated Marksman Rifle|DMRs]], [[M41 SSR MAV/AW|Rocket Launcher]], sniper ammo and most importantly a [[Armor Abilities#Drop Shield|Drop Shield]]. Swap your now nearly empty pistol for the DMR, grab the Drop Shield and head up to a roof. Keep Active Camo if you prefer it, but keep in mind this is a long fight and you will probably have to regenerate your health more than once. If you have civilians left they will most likely die here, though on lower difficulties you may be able to save them. At this point in the level the Sniper Rifle isn't completely essential. If you're talented with it, hang onto it, it's very useful, but if you can't use the Sniper Rifle well you can get through this section with the DMR without too much trouble. The first [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Phantom]] Dropship is going to let out a pair of Elite Majors and a bunch of Jackal Majors and Grunts. You are mostly going to play hit-and-fade here, moving into position killing a few enemies then moving to cover to recharge.  Use the DMR to pick off the Jackals and Grunts and Snipe one of the Elites if you get the Chance. The second dropship will come near the bridge and will Drop more Grunts and Jackals and a couple of Elite Ultras with [[Type-50 Directed Energy Rifle/Heavy|Concussion Rifles]]. Take out as many Jackals and Grunts as you can and if you get a clean shot at the Ultras take it. Eventually Jun is going to displace. You should too. Head towards the bridge as fast as possible, pick up some DMR ammo and pick a good place to Snipe. The third dropship is going to come in and drop a couple more Ultras and their entourage. Snipe the Ultras, the best method seems to be to pick one, kill it and displace, rinse, lather, repeat. Use the DMR to finish off any minor enemies that remain. Once you've pacified this area Jun is going to call you to the riverbed so you can follow up on [[Catherine-B320|Kat's]] theory. Before you go swap the Rocket Launcher for your Sniper Rifle and load your DMR with all the ammo you can find.
