*Sniper Jackals patrol the roofs everywhere. Scan using ranged weapons and pick them off first. Use your VISR to get an idea of their position and never reveal yourself to more than one at a time. They will punish you mercilessly for any mistake.

*Jump Pack Brutes come up quick but by gauging their landing nearest to you, you can get behind and assassin melee them for the quick kill.
*Jump Pack Jiralhanae come up quick but by gauging their landing nearest to you, you can get behind and assassin melee them for the quick kill.
*Brute Stalkers have a nice yellow outline, and due to the fact that they think you can't see them they almost never use cover, presenting you with a nice fat target to shoot. Beware of [[Type-3 Antipersonnel/Antimateriel Orgudam Workshop firebomb|Incendiary Grenades]], close in so they can't throw at you and finish them off.

*While sniping your enemies at range is nice, your primary use for Scoped weapons should be to explore upcoming areas so you can determine your attack plan. Always carry one ranged weapon. If you can use a Sniper Rifle with and without the scope accurately, it's a much better choice than the SMG.

*As good a weapon as the [[MA5C Individual Combat Weapon System|MA5C Assault Weapon]] is, unless your desperate for a weapon stay away on this level, there isn't enough ammo around to make it worth while picking up.

*Engineer shielding is annoying. If you want to earn the Engineer achievements go back on a lower difficulty and replay. On Legendary, shoot the Engineers. In the end it will use less ammo than trying to kill the Overshielded Brutes. Of course if you're clever, you can kill the control Brute first, which will blow the engineer and drop the Overshield for everyone else.

*Once you get your Mongoose, never get rid of it. There are plenty of reasons, but mostly you can speed past everything and the Snipers can't get a bead on you quickly enough. After each mission, your Mongoose will be near you but probably not where you left it, turn on your VISR and locate the blue outline.

*Keep your VISR mode on at all times, as it will help you see better and find supplies to use easier.
