The Prometheans excluding the Crawlers and the Watchers are hard as -Yoink- to kill. It even takes a clip and a half to kill a damn Elite with a Carbine or the BR and thats on Normal. I cannot even imagine this game on Legendary.
I’m hoping to give legandary ago tonight that’s if I get it today.
Did 1st bit on legendary, seems harder than reach but not that bad.
I think I might do this game on Legendary first, then do it on a lower difficulty with my friend on Co-op.
I want those achievements and Mark VI armor! I mean, I’m not going to USE it, but it’ll be nice to have.
I also played some of the first part on legendary, I thought it seemed slightly easier than Reach…was using plasma/storm rifle combo on elites though.
Don’t give up before you try 
you may surprise yourself.

The question is: is it a roller coaster in terms of difficulty like in Halo 3? If it is, I might not be able to finish it on solo.
Im on mission 4 on legnedary solo, youll have an advantage over me going back through as youll know the promethean weaknesses upfront.
Im still trying to work out how to kill knights easily, im well stuck at the moment on mission 4 when theres like 4 all porting everywhere and shotgunning me.
However ill eventually get past each checkpoint which seems impossible, thats what keeps me motivated:)
I finished legendary already and I’ve got to say the only hard enemies are the big prometheans, not too hard tho

Whats your method on knights? Any weapons melt them other than UNSC Shotgun?
one of the first knights me a my brother fought was -Yoinking!- ridiculousness (on heroic) it was a damn sham wow

What? Maybe you shouldn’t miss…
Only Gold elites take more than a single mag and it really isn’t that much extra.
Even the strongest knights die after a single mag of LR + a little extra.
I’ve already completed Solo Legendary (Took less than 8 hours) and it really wasn’t that hard.

This.
I saw in Spartan Ops Legendary gameplay a guy killing a Goldie (had a fuel rod gun) in about that same amount of BR ammo. And in Dawn legendary gameplay, the AR bested an Elite Commander within 1 clip.
So either the BR is weaker than the AR or you’re just not landing all your shots on the head (due to BR spread).
I’ll deffo be hitting this up on Legendary… Although, I do intend to complete the normal campaign setting first. Just so i’m aware of any surprises that might pop up & want to eat my face off! 
I WILL try it on legendary for the Mark VI armor.
But it will be hard; I did Spartan Ops 1 part 1 solo, got on a hog, and died.
