Legendary and Skulls

Is anyone else finding Legendary a lot easier with some of the skulls on? Especially Grunt Funeral, Bandanna, and Boom. I just beat the Library, and it almost seemed easier than the normal Library without skulls.

Haven’t tried Legendary with skulls yet.

Boom skull makes grenade spamming in rooms with little to none cover (i.e. T&R control room) more convenient. With it off and no Bandanna, you have to use other tactics.

For the control room, lure the Goldie to the hangar and there should be a stack of supply cases on the far right when the door opens. Go onto there and fire your gun and Goldie will either berserk while he’s on the ground in front of you or he’ll go onto it. Make your escape down while he’s berserking. You’ll either land on or slide off the supply case below or land on the floor and lose your shields. Then make your way up and if he hasn’t moved into the small space between the wall and supply case but moved off the supply case, you can use frags to move him there. Then assassinate him. If he’s already there, just assassinate him.

If he’s on the supply case, use a grenade to knock him off to the lower level then jump down and assassinate him while he’s still stunned from the landing.

For the prison room, there are 2 ways to deal with the Goldie:

  1. Headshot the 2 Stealth Elites, wait for any Grunts that wake up to go back to sleep, melee them then lure Goldie and retreat. Wait for a while and Goldie will be in patrol mode and walk back to the terminal rather than running. That’s your chance to assassinate him.

  2. After killing all the other enemies, get Goldie to berserk then move around the terminal platform. Goldie will get stuck on the opposite side for an easy snipe with the sniper rifle.

I love Goldies. :3

I’m going through it without any skulls on at the moment. I’m guessing it’d be a lot easier with bandana on.
