      Mauz Gravemind is worse in just about every way. The only bad parts of Regret are the beginning, the exit of the second elevator, and the boss skip because of how long the setup takes with no guarantee of a checkpoint once you start the fight.

    • @221Prohunter
      @221Prohunter 4 года назад +29

      JohnJackLynch It’s arguably easier on LASO because of Black Eye. On legendary without skulls, you get melted by the ranged ones and have to wait to regen while tons of flood run at you at the same time. Also, you’ve been playing Halo for years so you’re better now than you were back then wether you realize it or not lol

    I fucking hate this level so goddamn much. On the last part, literally every flood form turns into those goddamn ranged fuckers and knocks me off while I’m trying to jump off on the ledge. As I’m running through the level every fucking flood form I sword attacks me and I lose all my shield immediately. And every goddamn carrier has grenades inside. Fuck this level.

      @no-barknoonan1335 Год назад +1

      If you stay and fight it's substantially more difficult I agree. It's the general strategy on Legendary as well, just run thru it and know the route and some ways to improvise. If you take it slow, you'll have to get near perfect sword chains to not get overrun. It helps that the AI isn't super responsive, they do attack once they notice you, but if you're super fast they take a second to attack.

    In the reactor room, I have done this level twice now and each time a random piece of equipment despawns on me. First run, the 1st Bubbleshield disappeared on the escape and on the 2nd run the Camo by the door disappeared on the escape. 1st Bubbleshield wasnt a huge issue, was able to complete easily without it however without the camo it made it much more difficulty

  • @Lucifronz
    @Lucifronz 4 года назад

    Not quite as easy in co-op, but not so bad either. The swords you get are a godsend. Sangheili Flood Combat Forms are dangerous and take three strikes with a sword to eliminate, but they're predictable even when they have shields, so they're not *too* bad, but sometimes they lunge and you can't figure out how to avoid them.
    Our main issues came from the large room where the skull is located (you grab a camo in there on the way through and on the way back when the place is blowing up you have to camo to escape through the door). So many enemies. The first time through was bad, because we both needed camo and had to take separate routes, but I got through just fine moving straight. Aim for the infection form in the tank's face and it's not a problem to one-shot. On the way back the sword-wielding Flood were a problem. We only had one camo left so he had to deal with it.
    Also I couldn't make a jump on the way to the reactor room and had to hide in one of the corners. Enemies don't go over there, though, so I just had to wait for my partner to clear out the next area (which he only died once or twice, so it wasn't too hard for him) before I got teleported after the cutscene.
    Again, since I didn't have camo he had to run to the ship solo, but he managed well enough. Not sure how he handled it.

      It's just inconsistent/glitchy for a small percentage of players. It works 100% of the time for most people. There's also the possibility that you accidentally selected "Restart" instead of "Save and Quit" at one point since the options are right next to each other. I've done that before.

Once I had killed all of the combat forms and tank forms, I picked up a needler, cloaked myself, and killed most of the ranged forms. Then I picked up the second cloak and kept going
      Also I strongly recommend carrying a Needler as your secondary weapon over a Carbine for most of the level because it's so good at dealing with those annoying spike shooters
