Anyone have any helpful tips for Halo: CE LASO?

[Blakebran]

My friend and I have been doing the LASO playlist, and are completely stuck on the level Truth and Reconciliation. We tried for legitimately 5 and a half hours before he had a connection issue and DC'ed from the game. We got all the way though boarding the ship, and the first set of checkpoints right after that, but then it felt like we were smashing our skulls against a brick wall for over 3 hours.

Anyone have any tips for the level?

Depending on where you're at in the level, after reuniting with Keyes on the corvette and getting to the room with the 3 invisible sword elites, I found that while playing on legendary (not sure if it works in laso, haven't tried) you can guide him back through the door you come in to avoid him getting shot and killed.

You can also punch any hunters in the back repeatedly until they die if you spin around them fast enough before they can swing/shoot at you.

The needler can auto lock enemies a few feet before the reticle turns red.

Hope any of this helps, good luck with your run

unfortunatly, you can not use the covenant weapons, due to the foreign skull. And we have not made it to keyes. We had gotten stuck in the room clear that is the second one you do aboard the ship (the room right before the hangar), that you go down to the door to open for the marines (right after the hunters)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bR7nmEAfLSU works well for 2ppl aswell.
Note on hanger part, might wanna go to nade spot and kill enough ppl to get a checkpoint there so u can do tries in relative conssesion.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2z9CLRGjr4 legit run without skips.

Another note obviusly some areas are 1 person goes ahead and other w8es until he gets ported/area despawns.

I do also think that if you party u will begin at spot u got dced at(could be wrong)

Well you can't really switch guns on that mission, you only get the ones u start with.
True reach needs no guides cus the input is good. CE is horrible, point blank melee miss all the time for instance.

Besides i don't think you should comment untill u have completed it yourself :P. 10years ago on xbox dun count

Nah it isn't easy. Wtf are you talking about? Even i'm going through guides and I'm an FPS veteran.

[Blakebran]

I wish I could swap weapons.....There are literally no other available guns to use. Also, thanks for the guides Fire. I was looking for some yesterday, but was just finding REALLY old LASO guides that were before the iron skull addition on the xbox mcc and could not seem to find any updated LASO ones.

I can help you man, DM and we can join up to run through it

Just by saying this makes me think that you do not fully understand what LASO is/does for Halo: CE

You probably suck more then anyone here lmfao.

Ya Truth and Reconciliation really sucked on LASO. My tips would be to


At the start of the Level


1. Never pick up the sniper ammo refill piles until your complete out since it'll delete them even if you only used 1 bullet.

2. When you have the chance to pick on isolated Jackals/Elites rush to them and melee, if your out of shields try to either back away from their spawn and wait till they turn around or try to sneak up on them. This will also save you some ammo. For the elites you might have to continue mashing the melee to them until their dead.

3. I recommend that you get your marines killed early on so you can pick up their AR when you need the ammo. Might have to switch to classic mode to see them.

4. During the third encounter if you manage to sneak past them with the active camo, try to progress past the tunnel and activate the pelican call (Might have to kill the elite near the turret to activate it) this will instant kill all the enemies you've past. Watch out for the grunts though they'll explode when you get near them.

5. Hide behind the rock in the tunnel and pick off the grunts when their all gathered. When the next wave drops in, try to bait them back there.

6. Try to save eight sniper rounds (Cause of the skull) near the end at least to quick deal with the hunters.

Now on Board the ship

7. Your first encounter on the ship is going to really depend on RNG, cause your going to need to wait in the long corridor that the enemies spawn in, wait for the grunts to gather up and pick them off and hope they take down the Ultra Elites. Then use the other two sniper rounds to deal with the hunters.

8. Once you past those waves and progress the next room with the wraith, have the person with the active camo drop down onto the wraith and try to sneak into the doors on the left. If no enemies spawn near the door or your camo is out try to lure a grunt there, then run through the door as quick as you, eventually you'll reach a teleport point for your partner.

9. When you reach the room with the spirit, stay where you are. Once the ship leaves take out the major elite, jackal and grunt without alerting them. Then progress to the other side of the room, pick up the overshield and do a double grenade jump on the two weapons crate near the end. This'll skip the enemy encounters below. Once you approach the command centre, your partner will teleport to you. Which they can drop back down and pick any ammo or health and be teleported back up to you.

10. At the command centre pick a door, take out a couple of enemies with your partner then both of you move onto a another door. If the Elite with sword is chasing one of you, throw a frag near him to stun him for a bit and it'll give you enough time to reload or back up.

With Keyes following you

11. Once you get rid of the reinforcements, have one of the players stay back. Keyes should stay with them. Switch back and forth if your out of ammo or low on HP.

12. When your returning to the command centre if your out of sniper ammo try to pick off the cloaked elites, back track to holding cells before Keyes. Back there should be a active camo there. Pick it up and assassinate the 3 sword elites.

Thanks for all the tip man! This should be really helpful

No problem good luck on the next two most difficult LASO missions.

[Dr.Mario'sTeabaggin Squirrel Rx]

my biggest problem is that i cant beat truth and reconciliation because when i save and quit after i die, the game sometimes reverts me back to the beginning of the level when im half way through the level. I've given up at this point because of that. unless someone has any info im not aware of?

[Blakebran]

That's the iron skull in single player. In coop it just reverts to the last checkpoint
