Halo MCC - Halo 4 LASO (Part 2: Requiem) - Naked Tyrant - Guide

[@KJR4493]

Hey Silver, I'm sure you've gotten thousands of comments like this already but I just want to say thank you again for posting all these guides. I would never have been able to do LASO by myself and I was able to get the LASO Master achievement yesterday solely thanks to you. It's been a heck of a ride and I truly appreciate it. Thank you.

[@opfolf]

Same bro he helps so much

[@DROOPYSNAIL4813]

lmao pictures or it didn't happen

[@el_compa_alex_10]

LASO: HAHAHA, I'm invincible!! Scorpion: (Return back in to mission beginning) LASO: WAIT, THAT 'S ILLEGAL!!!

[@halolasomaster3900]

Why can't ever LASO level be this easy! 😂

[@lmncarlson]

Tip: if the elite and jackals stuck in the doorway are being aggressive, try hiding behind those pillars that Silver stands on to shoot with the plasma pistol. Under certain conditions, the door will close and splatter some of the enemies!

[@kennethmacleod9980]

Thank you so much! the elites never stood in one place and were jumping and even throwing nades from behind the barricade, but I stood were you told me to and eventually the doors did close and open a few times splattering the elites.

[@HelpIdkAGoodUser301]

Thanks man. For me, I had to go to the very right of the barricade to get the door to shut.

[@DJSMedicate]

The first 17 Minutes of this guide was this laid back, slow and steady strategy but then starting from 17:30 it became so hectic for 2 minutes. The contrast is so funny lol

[@halolasomaster3900]

2:13 Cortana: Hostiles! Chief: Wow you really are malfunctioning!

[@blahmaster6k]

I know this is a year late, but I found a couple tricks for this level that aren't in the video that some people might find helpful: 1) You can take a ghost up the ledge where the concussion elite spawns, this makes running to the structure and back much faster. Just get one ghost, park it next to the ledge, then get the other ghost and drive up the first ghost. Takes a little bit of time to set up but it means you can drive quickly to and from the second and third despawns. You can even take the ghost inside the cartographer, but it disappears when you trigger the cutscene if you drive it next to the button, so don't do that. It's probably possible to use it to kill the elites from afar much easier. 2) When you go to kill the elites that you blocked in the door, sometimes they won't cooperate, or will even throw grenades at you if you stand on the little wall things. But if you walk right up to the barricade you made, you can manipulate the door to go up and down and the enemies can be crushed by the door without you having to kill them yourself.

[@s3rlrules]

Man. Thank god I remembered the Invisibility. Those Eliets just kept telling my barrier to go fuck its self

[@MintyLime703]

That freeze is also present on an RTX 2080ti and an i9 9900k. So it's definitely the game's problem. Honestly not complaining though, it's useful. Also those crates were a complete waste of time imo. It's just a couple jackals and elites and the elites quickly figure out how to escape using grenades. I don't see why you wouldn't just carbine them from a distance like I ended up having to. I could have been done with this so much sooner.

[@ForrestHoward]

I dealt with the same thing

[@tomlloyd2603]

With the rectangle prisms, if you want to get them up a ramp and you have no grenades or concussion, do the trick in the video, but punch the top corners. It goes so quick.

[@opfolf]

Thank you so much for the guides i would have never had completed the gudies without you thank you so much!!!

[@browe091]

All the covenant were jumping around behind my barricade and would throw nades if I got too close. Somehow tricked the game into closing the door above them a few times and it splattered them all 😂

[@BlurrySolutions]

Hey everyone. Pro tip. Use Camo to make the jackals lower their shields for an easier headshot!

[@nooposite6025]

An hour 49 this took me, this was one of those levels where I was lured into a false sense of security by your guide haha

[@hanging4176]

Yeah lol, I had to do some improvising on the barricades when one of the elites got through, thankfully I assassinated him and idk what happened but the door housing the other elite closed and crushed him alive.

[@coker-jg6xn]

damn bro twice now those elites trapped in the door straight BEAMED me with a sticky. fucking fastest pitch unreactable i swear to god LOL

[@toddysseygaming]

The elites still got through the barricade. I do not know how that happened because i did it just like the guide. did this happen to anyone else

[@ForrestHoward]

Same thing happened to me. Even if I cleared the enemies in the room fast enough for them not to jump over they kept sticking me with grenades. Unfortunately, it ended up being less of a pain in the ass killing them the same way you kill the first 2

[@CrocBankRbbr]

Brilliant As Always Thanks Silver

[@ryaiariot]

Camo can help close gaps for melee hits on enemies especially if you're feeling cheeky.

[@route77productions]

My shock when I started to shoot plasma at the barricade only to see an Elite jump and stick me with a plasma grenade 😂 And then when I saved and restarted both elites made it over my barricade🤦‍♂️

[@halolasomaster3900]

11:26 That Elite doesn't know the five D's of Dodgeball Dodge Dip Duck Dive And Dodge

[@HelpIdkAGoodUser301]

I WAS WATCHING THE GUIDE AND THE ELEVATOR FADE TO BLACK HAPPENED AT THE SAME TIME LMAO

[@IAmNotARobotPinkySwear]

5:59 - this technique no longer works (blocking off doorway). Elites jump continuously till they can get out, even had 2 jackals get out as well. It does somewhat delay them but honestly if you keep your distance you can take them out without them shooting back. One elite I used carbine, the other I snuck up on and had a melee dance till I could assassinate him. Hate 343 for updating these games to make LASO harder. Thanks silver, with your guides I've done CE and ODST so far. Doing halo 4 right now.

[@channel-rc1gd]

Lots of back tracking in this one

[@mattfortney4734]

Remember at the end if your Co-op the ghost despawn trick doesn’t work, we still had to clear out just the bottom section. After jumping on the ledge the other despawn worked.

[@DJSMedicate]

I think if you are Co-op both players need to be in that area he went to at the same. Usually despawns only work when both players are in the correct positions.

[@mattfortney4734]

@@DJSMedicate yes bit really hard to get both ghosts and keep everyone alive, was saying as we did it with 4 players.

[@MW_147]

Just likelast time I did Laso, that barricade wasn't able to keep out the elites. They'd noticed me an were continually jumping, eventually managing to jump on top. I just hid behind a pillar and waited for them to pass me so I could pop out and back smack them. Did manage to clear the bridge section much quicker this time than last. 39/46

[@Knucklehead448]

Welcome back silver. Thanks for the walkthroughs.

[@kaischweitzer7836]

Very few enemies to fight... Impressive!!!🤓

[@TacitusSoldier]

For the section when you have to cloak and then hop into the banshee, I found it easier and took less damage when I would shoot the grunt sentry on the side of the phantom right before hopping into the banshee.

[@Wolfgenesis-117]

nicely done silver. I love your work.

[@TurboGuides]

For some reason my 2 elites was able to jump the boxes but luckily they did that one by one and i was able to kill melee-kill them. the 4 jackals kept jumping but couldn't do anything.I am not saying silver idea is not correct but maybe i set up the boxes wrongly. So keep that possibility in mind. Thank you silver as always you are awesome

[@KiyaWarrior]

These guides are so much better than Naked Elis. Thanks Silver.

[@AugustoM23]

Just found out that if you loose the concussion rifle you can jump in that white forerunner structure on the right side of the rock you're standing. You don't slide down and it's easier.

[@DragonArcadia]

Excellent guide as always. Is there any chance the normal Legendary guides will come back? I found them extremely useful in Halo CE and 2, and the LASO and speedrun guides don’t always work.

[@yougotaknife]

He never finished h2 he got to like delta halo then abandoned them for some reason. It made me sad

[@harrisonfrench3577]

If it works for Laso it will work for legendary?

[@tTaseric]

@@harrisonfrench3577 At best, you're just wasting your own time doing stuff that isn't necessary, and at worst those strategies simply do not work. I'm fairly certain there's a fair amount of Halo 2 and 3 LASO tutorials that rely on the Sputnik skull being active for skips. His Halo 4 LASO tutorials are simply inapplicable to a regular legendary run due to the lack of Catch skull.

[@m-h1217]

The barrier is not as effective as it seems, the elites just get stuck in an animation of throwing nades which either instantly hit you with pin point accuracy or blow up the barrier.

[@ForrestHoward]

the two elites consistently jumped over mine

[@m-h1217]

@@ForrestHoward That happened too. Trial and error.

[@Wolumeeh]

After what felt like +20 tries, I was finally able to pass this mission. Had to take it real slow towards the bridge and end section since for some reason the save & quit glitch doesn't work too well for me at the moment. This game hates me.

[@FrostmoonPlayz]

"I dont know if that freeze will ever go away with better hardware" PC player here. i7 10th gen and 3070, 32 GB RAM. It still freezes. it appears to be a game engine related issue rather than a hardware issue.

[@DutchWolf114]

2:21 My Series X still does the little freeze (running from the integrated ssd).

[@MintyLime703]

That freeze is also present on an RTX 2080ti and an i9 9900k. So it's definitely the game's problem. Honestly not complaining though, it's useful.

[@MrTehPenguin]

I'm having an issue where the Elites are routinely jumping up and over my barricades :/

[@s3rlrules]

And the result is fucking brutal

[@hanging4176]

I had the same issue, just try assassinating them if they get past, it’s your best bet.

[@MrTehPenguin]

@@hanging4176 ended up restarting the mission and redoing it!

[@s3rlrules]

Remember you have camo

[@MrTehPenguin]

@@s3rlrules I got past it probably a day after I originally posted the comment. I got to Reclaimer and MCC decided it didn't want me to start Reclaimer and kept crashing lol. I'll get back to finishing H4 soon hopefully as its my only game left in the MCC to finish LASO

[@slicedbread117]

Playing on the Series X now, even though I get the “freeze screen” in the very beginning to despawn the first wave of enemies, they’re not despawning. Help?

Cuboid...

[@NathII7752]

I prefer cubetangle, silver's onto something there

[@LiveHedgehog]

@@NathII7752 Yeah honestly cubetangle describes it a lot better. Like, a rectangle isn't called a 'squaroid'.

[@TopHunter106]

I did the crates but an elite threw two grenades and broke the crate barriers

[@WilliamTheUnkownShoutout]

Awesome😀.

[@xplicitator8453]

Silver got 1.4k for hitting the plasma turret twice O.o is that a glitch?

[@HaloCompletionist]

Nope, you get credit for destroying those plasma turrets...and you'll notice they respawn every time you leave the load zone then come back so you can keep doing it repeatedly for free points.

[@opfolf]

@@HaloCompletionist that's cool

[@EmergencyProgram314]

@@opfolf I've seen him melee the turrets in Halo 2 LASO to get his health back. Guess the skull sees it as an enemy.

[@tTaseric]

@@EmergencyProgram314 I assume it's due to a coding quirk with how enemies are classified. The skull in halo 2 probably detects for just entity destruction rather than specific enemy units.
