This list doesn’t include mastery commendations…
Mongoose Destroyer:
With the mongoose design and lack of major use in Halo, completing this commendation takes forever to complete. Enemies inside a mongoose have their heads exposed, allowing for easy shooting. Unfortunately, most shot for the head, not at the vehicle itself. In addition, players tend to avoid mongooses or gungooses, making this commendation take that much longer.
Phaeton Gunship Gunner:
Phaetons are currently only available in Warzone. However, it take forever to unlock, so most players only hope is to hijack one for themselves. On top of that, you have to get many kills, which would take around 15 phaetons to get.
Unstoppable:
This commendation forces players to camp the entire game of Breakout to keep themselves from dying. This along, is one of the hardest commendations to complete, since one mistake can cost you.
Against All Odds:
Another breakout challenge. this time you have to hope you remain the last man alive with two or more enemies to defeat. Then, you have to win the round. Another hard challenge.
And Stay Off:
With a narrow time frame to get the cliffhanger medal, this commendation is achieve merely one luck. Unfortunately, only killing an enemy in the middle of a mantle counts towards this commendation.
If anybody has completed these commendations, please offer some insight on how you did so.
Honorable Mentions:
Bulldozer
Warden Slayer
Hunter Slayer
Spartan Laser
Mantis Destroyer
Aggressive Expansion
Yup, I hate all of these.
Am I glad I got the mongoose early…

Probably before people really realized how worthless it is.

Just another balance issue in Halo 5.
True words. I have the phaeton one but still need the hog destroyer. The other 4 are all I have left to get. $10 says the mongoose one will be the last one I have to do.
He’s talking about the destroyer, not gunner with the mongoose. Yes, that one takes forever. I’ve got it to level 5, but still need 34 more. Kind of a pain. I only need 1 more Warden to be done with all enemy commendations. I call BS on that one though because I have killed Warden after Warden and not gotten credit for it half the time. That one is a pain. I’m on level 5 and only need 22 more of And Stay Off. It’s the only multiplayer commendation I haven’t finished. I’m also at 100% with weapon commendations.
Against all odds and unstoppable are really the only 2 commendations in the game I’m not sure I can finish. Unstoppable in particular. That one is just insane unless I purposely ranked in bronze or something, but playing platinum or diamond breakout it’s extremely hard to not die at least once.
I’ve really crushed most of these commendations, have a look, but I’m going to agree 100% on the Breakout ones, they are very tough.

Sorry, but the gungoose isn’t worthless at all. If you’re good with it you can go off on a gungoose.

Im about to hit Level 5 on Mongoose Destroyer and And Stay Off. But the other 3, I’m still Level 3 or lower. I have a 100% Weapon and Enemy Commendations though. However, I really need to work on game mode commendations.

Hah…Unstoppable…Funny…You almost got me there! I know 343 is cruel, but let’s be serious, not THAT cruel…
…Right?
RIGHT?
RIGHT???!!!

Splaser commendation became SOOOO easy after the buff, as well as Super Fiesta.
Bulldozers are easy and splasers are easy thanks to the recent buff. I unfortunately grinded out my splaser commendation before the buff :'C
I’m having hell trying to complete the Spartan laser commendation…
Phaeton one is pretty easy.

I totally agree … Almost ?
You could be very lucky and have a great team and them being totally rubbish.
But mainly you’d have to hide and not help you team and that’s unsporting, I have one and that was because we have a great team !
I actually got my first Phaeton using a random vehicle card. I then went on a streak. I want to say I had the commendation unlocked after using 5 Phaetons… maybe.
For me it’s the Binary Rifle kills. I never use that gun. It lets everyone know where you are the moment you look down the sites. Almost defeats the purpose of sniping.

I have this commendation. I’m an Onyx in Breakout with a fairly high accuracy. I think understanding the flow of the maps and having an on-point magnum has helped greatly in getting this commendation finished. However, the emblem unlocked for finishing it is complete trash , IMO. The “Unstoppable” Breakout commendation is going to be the most difficult because I don’t sit back and hope the rest of my team will carry my deathless Spartan to victory.
I hijacked a phaeton but got rocketed in seconds. The other time I used one of my reqs and 2 ultra banshees came out of nowhere. I still have zero phaeton kills.
