You can take a right and see a short movie clip or just proceed to the left and down the hall. Melee the Elite in the back who was standing with his back turned to the door. Now carefully get a idea of your surroundings. There is an Elite out of the door right next to the dead Elite with a column almost immediately. Around that is an Elite and a Grunt. There will be other grunts circling the floor and a couple on a balcony circling the top of the room. Eliminate these anyway you wish. To your left is a door that immediately on the other side of there are jackals. Kill them and proceed down the ramps. In the next room there will be Jackals on Patrol in a long U-shaped hallway. Here is also a weapon stash. In the adjoining room are a pair of Hunters and sometimes a Jackal. Kill them and proceed down the ramps just behind them. In the next room there will be a door on the floor level which you can enter and immediately turn left. Sitting there just for you will be your very own active camo. Grab it and jump off of the platform you are standing on. Melee all of the grunts and Elites and proceed down the ramps to another control room. Activate the map (the Silent Cartographer). Head back upstairs. On your way upstairs you may notice | You can take a right and see a short movie clip or just proceed to the left and down the hall.

Head back upstairs. On your way upstairs you may notice an Overshield. Grab it. There is a Catwalk in the room where all the Grunts and the elite were. Walk up the ramp and follow the Catwalk to some ramps at the end. Kill the Jackals on the ramps and proceed up it. On the other side of the door you will face about eight to ten Jackals and directly above you but unable to hit you are a group of Grunts and an Elite. It is suggested that you kill the jackals with your pistol from a distance if at all possible. Then move quickly to the ramp on the opposite side of the room. You should climb this and see the Elite and grunts on opposite side. You may snipe them or walk around the hallway to engage in close quarters. When you have eliminated all opposition in this area, proceed down the hallways to meet several Jackals. Kill them and proceed up the ramp to the room which originally had the Hunters in it. There is a group of Jackals on the left side of the adjoining room and a party of Grunts and an elite on the right. Eliminate them and stock up on ammo. It is entirely your choice as to whether you keep you rocket launcher or not, but I suggest that for now, you do if you still have any rockets. Proceed to the upper level and remove the Covenant in that first room you encounter after the "Shafted" text that appeared on your screen. Then proceed '''very''' cautiously into the hallway that leads back to the originally "locked" door. In that doorway there is a Golden Elite with an overshield and an Energy Sword. I suggest that you pop around the corner and stick him with a Plasma Grenade and run. Your Rocket Launcher works well too. If you were successful in sticking him, your work is short. If you didn't, remember that he is faster, better shields, and the Energy Sword is pretty close to a one-hit-kill if it isn't exactly. But, if you were careful, you still have some rocket ammo! Once you have killed him head to your Warthog. Drive your men to the top of the ramp and prepare for Elites with active camo. Once they are killed, Echo 419 will come and give you a ride. Hop in, you're done! | ||

When you get dropped off, quickly look to the left, switch to your pistol, and headshot the two [[Unggoy|Grunts]] who are trying to flank you. Switch your [[MA5B Individual Combat Weapon System|Assault Rifle]] for the [[Type-25 Directed Energy Pistol|Plasma Pistol]] one of them drops, and clear the remaining Covenant using the [[Noob Combo]] that you just picked up. There will be plenty of Plasma Pistols, so don't worry about running out of ammo. If you prefer, you can use the Needler, but the [[Kig-yar|Jackals]] will be a problem. Use grenades as appropriate. Most of the time, all of your Marines will die. | When you get dropped off, quickly look to the left, switch to your pistol, and headshot the two [[Unggoy|Grunts]] who are trying to flank you.

As you leave the substation, you will have a rough-in with 5-6 stealth Elites. They don't have shields, even on Legendary, so they will die to headshots. Alternatively, you can stick them, and if you have an overshield, you can simply run past them. | As you leave the substation, you will have a rough-in with 5-6 stealth Elites.

At the end of the first tunnel (if you go by the cutscene, you can jump with an overshield to the lower floor to the cartographer unharmed), you will find a Major Elite working with a drop pod; use this opportunity to assassinate him. Note the location of the door, but do not use it. Instead, go up the ramp to the “balcony”, quietly, and kill the sleeping Grunts. You will not be able to kill all of the enemies in this room without alerting them, so be ready for a fight. | At the end of the first tunnel (if you go by the cutscene, you can jump with an overshield to the lower floor to the cartographer unharmed), you will find a Major Elite working with a drop pod; use this opportunity to assassinate him.
