Players start with a [[Sniper Rifle System 99C-S2 Anti-Matériel|Sniper Rifle]] and an [[MA5B Individual Combat Weapon System|Assault Rifle]]. You only need the Sniper Rifle for the first half which is the key weapon in this level. Remember to spend only the necessary ammo of the weapon; there is almost no ammo for the sniper rifle. The assault rifle is not so important and can be swapped for other weapons. | Players start with a [[Sniper Rifle System 99C-S2 Anti-Matériel|Sniper Rifle]] and an [[MA5B Individual Combat Weapon System|Assault Rifle]].

After clearing the turrets, concentrate on the Elites and Jackals. Two shots will drop the Elites. Use the plasmas to drain the Jackal's shields then melee them or use your sniper. | ||

When you're sure there's no [[Covenant]] left in the vicinity, whip out your Assault Rifle and get in a shade, then start shooting the reinforcements. They won't all come within the range of your shade after losing the first squad so you'll have to go occupy the shade at the far end of the area. | When you're sure there's no [[Covenant]] left in the vicinity, whip out your Assault Rifle and get in a shade, then start shooting the reinforcements.

Move your scope down and scrub those two Jackals on the natural bridge, and any Shade Gunners you can see. After they've bit the dust, jump down from the perch and move forward a little. You should see another large rock at the edge where the ground elevates into the natural bridge. Jump on the rock, then on the ground above, and crouch close to the first shade you decommissioned.

Once you’re back at Sniping spot #2, take a moment to access the situation. You have just sniped a whole Gulch-load of Covenant. Think you're done? WRONG!

As soon as they are dead, scour the place for ammo and grenades. Remember to take the frags from the dead marines because you'll need them. You may notice that the graphics in this game aren't exactly top notch (though they are pretty good for a 2001 game), but there are some scenes which just leave you staring at the breathtaking view, like the arc of the Halo extending over the sky, the ending cinematic, the silent cartographer level, the first level, the huge chasms and gorges, large indoor outdoor scenes, ice bridges, flood-covenant battles, Halo's Control Room, the light bridges, Proto-gravemind, the crashed Pillar of Autumn at "The Maw", etc, etc. | As soon as they are dead, scour the place for ammo and grenades.

So, try to lure them through ONE SIDE on first contact. As soon as they're just around the curve, run as fast as you can to the other side (a whole lap around the platform), sniper rifle in hand, and you'll be looking at their backs, hit the orange part of their backs from behind with the rifle. He'll drop dead in one shot if you hit the orange spot. Now the other will realize he lost his bond brother and come after you, repeat the same trick and go around the platform and shoot him from behind. In the best-case scenario, it should be a 1-shot 1-kill deal in a row. | ||
