About the Legendary Speedrun achievements

Does the time for them reset to a checkpoint whenever you reload said checkpoint / die or is it handled like the time score in the corner? To be honest, I'm kinda dreading the leg. speedruns more than the LASO runs cause I hate being under a time limit and being punished for dying would just make this more infuriating.

I believe you don't have to run a whole campaign under 3 hours, It takes your fastest time on every mission from your carrer and if the total goes under 3 hours you get the achievement.

Happend to me when i speedruned the ark on legendary and after it was done poof achievement from nowere and yes death and checkpoints does not reset the timer back.

Unfortunately, after death or recheckpoint time continue. So, death or recheckpoint are very dangerous in speedrun.
I think the same, 3 hours achievement seems worse than laso because of time limits.
I did already halo reach, halo ce and halo 3 on this achievement, so I know what I say

Also, the worst think in halo speedruns is checkpoints. Very often checkpoints don't appear, so after death in the end of level you have to start from middle of level or from level beginning even. It's veeery annoying.

Yeah, I knew that you don't have to do the whole thing in one sitting, but damn that sounds horrible. Welp, time to watch speedrun videos then.

At least in Halo 3 I got the Acrophobia skull, so yay I guess.

Yes, the worst achievement for me.

This skull gives x0,00 score, so level time won't count. You can't use it in speedrun.

Yeah, it's the same for missions involving the Flood. I just want to skip them as quickly as possible, but one shot or combat form too many and bam: Back to the beginning.

It's not so hard btw, except shooting forms. This level has many invisibility abilities, it not so hard to skip this level. Enemies are easy to kill and they shoot less than covenant enemies. In generators room 50% enemies just stays and do not attack you. Also, on this level you have rockets, swords, hammers, flamethrower, shotguns and close distance. Therefore it's easy to pass.
The hardest levels are first level and The Covenant for me.
The Ark is hard too for most people but not for me.

Floodgate is the easiest level, it saves 10 minutes and passes under 5 minutes
