Methods

Method 1

On Normal, activate the Tough Luck, Catch, Fog, and Famine Skulls. It would be a good idea to use a shotgun/energy sword in combination a battle rifle/carbine. Also, try to get as many style points as you can (for example, grenade sticks or headshots).

Trivia

The name Orpheus was ancient Greek; in Greece, Orpheus went into Hades to find his wife Eurydice and bring her back. In the Halo 3 level Cortana, the Master Chief (symbolizing Orpheus) goes into High Charity (symbolizing Hades, after it was infested by the Flood) to find Cortana (symbolizing Eurydice). Unfortunately for Orpheus, Eurydice never made it out of the underworld.
