Halo 5 Beta Armor Unlockables Guide

Hey everyone!
In the Halo 5 Beta, there is special armor for your Spartan that you can unlock that will transfer over to Halo 5: Guardians. You can unlock these by playing Halo 5 Beta or also by completing specific requirements in Halo: The Master Chief Collection. I compiled a little guide that will help people unlock this stuff easier. Enjoy! :slight_smile:

~ [Helioskrill] Get the “Legend” achievement (complete all four campaigns on Legendary…yikes!)

Fighting my way through “Assault On the Control Room” for CE on Legendary, not looking forward to the Library at all…

I’m on the last leg too, on the natural bridge with the banshees on it.

what does centurion look like?

I don’t know if it’s too late for this, but here’s a guide that will let you skip 95% of all fighting in AoCR. It’s a little tricky at first but after little practice you should get the hang of what to do and be able to pull it off with ease. Good luck on Helioskrill! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIcPIvC8WC4

I’ve already done my run-through on Heroic, how much harder can legendary be?

Few hours later

DEAR GOD KILL ME!!! T_T

P.S. I’m actually on the last like 3-5% of the mission, I’m more worried about the next mission, Library, and Keyes.

Been looking for a while for this so thank you. I assumed 20 was the highest. I’m a 16 with 93 games. Dear god I’m gonna be here a while…

Good luck guys! Legendary is much easier co-op, except for Halo 2, where both players return to checkpoint if one player dies. I’m hoping the unlockables will be available to unlock post-beta if we don’t unlock them by the 18th. Only time will tell…

Does it take more XP as you get to higher SRs or is it basically a similar XP required to rank up each time?

Well that’s 11 days to buckle down and kick -Yoink-!

I think the worst of it might be Halo: CE though. At least Halo 2A still has some instant-kill points on the flood when using precision weapons like in H3. H2 Brutes also aren’t that hard to kill if you can keep your aim straight, knock off their helmets and aim for the head.

Personally I think CE may be the easiest. The Flood are a joke with a shotgun, and the Covenant isn’t too tough.

Is this all of the armor that can be unlocked or is it just what has been unlocked so far? Also what is the max SR that can be reached.

You tell that to the Jackals that fire like machine guns and hit like plasma rifles with the accuracy of sniper rifles. shudders

I only have one thing to say about beating all campaigns on legendary.

Halo 2 Jackal Snipers on Outskirts

Yeah. I’m at rank 39 right now and I won’t hit rank 40 before 447k xp. The xp required to lvl up stacks ridiculously.

They need to do something about the Defender Helmet because it looks like a surprised/sad asian man.

Also the speed run achievement for that level implies that “bypass”.
