People saying Halo 3's Cortana mission is hard.

[OriginOrange]

First time playing through legendary on halo 3, (Beat on heroic back in the day). People were saying how Cortana is the hardest mission on legendary. All the cloaking devices and the needler make this level a joke.

If it wasn't for the shooting pure form constantly shooting you from across the room it wouldn't have been such a problem. I did Legandary as my very first playthrough and Cortana was the only level to actually be annoying to get through.

I beat it on legendary after getting it on PC and I swear it used to be harder on console.

Man, I actually had a lot of difficulty with the scarab on the Ark. All I had was the scorpion and I couldn't for the life of me move fast enough to not get wrecked by the scarab beam and some guauss hog that I am sure can't even harm it. Took me God knows how many tries and the second time I did the level I did it first try.

In my defense, Scarabs fight really were made with coop in mind. Marines hardly can be relied on with their rocket launcher.

I never beat this on console, the flood never give your shield a chance to recharge, once its down the little guys wont give you a break...

It's more boring and tedious than hard, the Gravemind/Cortana moments suck and were a mistake. The Flood in 3 just suck in general, they aren't that fun to fight, they peaked in Halo 1.

Deployable Covers are your best friend in Cortana for this reason (not the Bubble Shield). AI in Halo 3 can't see you behind them, they have difficulty getting around/over them quickly, so you can knock them down one by one if they try to get through, and best of all, Ranged Pure Forms cannot drain the health of them so they hard counter them. Not even counting how you can pretty much block up the entire corridor/doorway most of the time.
