I just finished off the phaeton the other day which was my last vehicle one. That just leaves the game mode ones for me.
“And Stay Off” High explosives are your best bet here
“Rockethog gunner” Use the rocket hog turret to defend. You don’t need to call in an actual hog for it to count.
“Warthog Destroyer” Arclight, wraith, scorpion etc
“Splatter” get a ghost and go to town or wait for people to charge your wraith
“Mantis Gunner” the mantises are actually pretty powerful now that the hijacking has been changed. Just call one in and give it a go, the oni is beastly.
“Mongoose Destroyer” Pretty much the same as warthog, except it will take you a lot longer. You can also chase somebody with a ghost and aim the blasters low.
“Guasshog Gunner” Use the guass turret to defend. You don’t need to call in an actual hog for it to count.
“Phaeton Gunship Gunner” This is a pretty slow grind. Phaetons don’t come up that often for me. I’d recommend staying in cover as much as you can popping out for a missile barrage or helios beam. The Helios variant can take on banshees pretty well with some excessive use of the teleport. You also get the emblem I’m using at the moment when you finally finish it off.
I’m very close to finishing. All I have left are these 5:
Carrier takedown, level 5, 90/100
Aggressive expansion, level 4, 6/15
Defender of the flag, level 5, 28/100
Unstoppable, level 4, 3/15
Against all odds, level 4, 2/15
I can finish up the two flag ones no problem just grinding out arena for a couple days. The “unstoppable” commendation is tough. Need to play a lot of breakout to get that done. I just played the ever living crap out of WFF for a couple weeks to finish up that commendation. Not fun, but got a lot of XP for it. I’ll get these last few done soon enough.
As for yours that mongoose destroyer one took the longest out of vehicle commendations for me and most of my friends that have vehicle mastery. The best way to get that one done is every time you see a gungoose out pop it with an arclight. When that was the only one I had left I would play entire warzone rounds carrying arclights over and over again in case I saw a gungoose/mongoose.
And on another note, guass hog gunner and rocket hog gunner can be done with walk around turrets. You don’t have to actually be on the back of a vehicle for those. Just spawn rocket pods and gauss turrets and have at it.
Thank You for the informed & detailed response, guys. My biggest problems are time to play, & some of those commendations are tough to set up, like the clambering one. Good point on the Phaeton, I think I’ve only ever called in one, & have much less than a dozen of either kind.
Try Infection for the “And Stay Off” commendation. Use your Shotgun and camp by a ledge, eventually the Infected will have to clamber to reach you. I’m still at level 4 for that commendation, but it’s gotten me several Cliffhanger medals.

My advice is just play the game. When you focus on them the game becomes frustrating. I can honestly say I’ve just played the game and I’m almost done them all. So just play and they’ll come
I am so close (97%), but the Phaeton commendation and Clamber commendation are going to take forever. I am terrible with aerial vehicles, and I only get a Phaeton REQ once every 25+ gold packs, so the odds are against me. Clamber is just taking a while because it just has to be the right place at the right time. Warden will come eventually as I play more WZFF, it’s just so damn hard to be the final shot and not just the player who does 99.99% of the damage, so someone else can rush in and get the kill. I know the Warden can be assassinated in WZ/WZFF, but I am not sure what the circumstances are to pull this of (I’ve tried it a bunch, but have not succeeded). The Goose commendation is a bit slow, because no one uses gooses anymore (I play a lot of BTB, trust me, it is rarely used):

I think this was much easier before the last update, when Action Sack only had 5 game modes. Mantis Breakout had this done for me in less than a week, but it doesn’t pop up in Action Sack as often now.
I got a lot left to do. Just check my commendation page if you want the full list. It’s chiefly those Game Mode ones. I’ve got all the Enemy and Weapon ones done, and I’m pretty much down to just the annoying Vehicle ones. Though I guess I have the Cliffhangar, Spartan Charge and Assassination ones to do too, but those’re closing in, bit by bit.
I would like to get all of them done by the time Halo 6 comes around, but I sincerely suspect that I won’t. It might be as implausible as SR 152 for me.
I only have two remaining and their both are in breakout. One is surviving a round when you are alone and out numbered and immortals. I would say they are getting pretty close to finishing.

If you use it warzone people don’t seem to have realized that they can’t hi-jack it from the front anymore and the stomp was improved. So you can continuously back up and mow people down with the machine gun and rockets.

> Ahhh, THAT’s what changed in WZ !!
There have been quite a few changes, but that is one of them.
