Weekly Challenge Advice and Tips

I completed Every LASO on my other account and am now just waiting for them to pop up once again.

This current LASO is a Tad annoying but not as bad as some others. A few tips to help anyone struggling out there.

1-Distance is your friend
2-Ninja Elites
3-Sticky Grenades kill almost everything(-Elites and Cheiftans)
4-Hunters = Run Away or around.
5-Headshots still kill in one shot no matter how hard the difficulty.
6-Helmets can still be shot off
7-Co-op adds more enemies but allows the grenade falcon(3 or more)
8-Save and Quit if killed(alone only)
9-Don’t waste your ammo, Elites, Chieftans take alot of shots
10-Time is money, don’t waste more than 2 hrs on something this trivial.

Other such things to be noted is that the Banshees are still as easily killed, Fuel Rods are almost an insta kill, and those Engineers need to die fast.

Also the part in the hospital with the Elites, with others leave someone outside otherwise you will not have a fun time.

Add anything else anyone has.

what about the fact that at the Sinoviet thing (whatever the hell its called)

you shoulden’t land your falcon on the heli-pad, go around to the back of the building, and fly under it, into the building,

profit= faster than walking, and safer

:stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks, I did good up until the hospital, couldn’t get past those brutes! Sticky advice helped a lot though, and so did save/reset.

You guys are welcome, and normally Id advocate flying up and under but… The stickies will cause serious problems.

Here are a few of my tips whilst doing it.
I have completed it 3 times in one day.
Once with me and one other and once with me and 2 others. it took us 50 mins first time, 55 mins second and 35 mins third.

Okay, I will now explain the best way to do the jammers and oni building.

Club Erera
This jammer is fairly straight forward.
simply go in and down to get a jetpack.
jetpack up to the jammer and hit it.
jetpack DOWN to the bottom where rocket is and jetpack back up towards the door.
EASY!

Sinoviet
The easiest of the 3 jammers IMO.
The very best and quickest way to do this is to fly up to the lift from the REAR of the building.
Land at the lift anf jump out of the falcon and into the lift.
Run through Reflection to the jammer.
Hit it and run back. If a bugger gives you jip, just head shot it.
Go up the lift and fly away.
REALLY EASY!

Hospital
I think everyone will agree that this is the hardest jammer.
My way will make it a lot easier though so here we go.
Go to the entrance then SNEAK in and SILENTLY kill grunts until you get a plasma pistol.
Once you have that, head back out and fly to a spot where there are loads of banshees circling around.
This is the most time consuming and frustrating part of the whole level, however, it is worth it.
Once you highjack a banshee, fly back to hospital and damage the banshee till it has no wings (nearly dead).
Next park in front of the door. Get out and the door will open then quickly get in the banshee and fly on in.
This can be trickier than you’d think.
Navigate down the spiral walkways and ramps, trying not to get stickied.
Then once you are out of that room, fly to the jammer.
Hit it then fly straight back towards the ranger elite spawn area, that’s just outside the spiral room.
It is IMPORTANT you get out of the banshee before walking through the door with the waypoint leading into the spiral room. Once you do, you will teleport back outside.
Simply call in a falcon and you’re done.
MEDIUM!

Oni building
The turrets will usually shoot at the building until you get too close to them. keep at a reasonable distance and kill them.
If you playing with 3-4 people, you might want to kill the phantoms that drop the turrets off instead.
Keep your eyes peeled for banshees, they are relentless at this point!
EASY!

General tricks
When I played through, I found it easier doing all the work myself whilst everyone else stayed at the starting spawn.
If you need help though, ask your teammates.
When you fly away from a jammer mission after you done it, you will get a checkpoint. Then a randomly generated mission will be produced such as escort buck etc. If you don’t like it , for example, i don’t like the elites and engineers one, simply revert to last save and a new one will generate. Keep doing this until get the desired one.

Well, I hope this helps you through the challenge. Lets see if anyone can beat 35 mins :wink:

Here are two methods to overcome the group of rangers after hitting the jammer on the hospital mission:

CO-OP:

Once you have fought your way past the Brutes and reached the jammer, leave one player behind while the other/rest of the players go to the top of the building and to the entrance. Once the players are to the top, hit the button for the jammer and crouch in a dark corner so you do not alert the rangers.

Now simply sit tight and wait about 5 minutes, the game will warp the player by the jammer up to the top of the building to regroup with the others completely bypassing the rangers and ultra.

(Because this method takes a few minutes you may think its not going to work but i guarantee the player below will get warped to the top so long as nobody engages any enemies.)

Solo:

Hijack a banshee, break both wings off and fly into the hospital with it. Once you have passed the spiral stairs all other enemies will no longer spawn. You are completely free to fly through the building at your leisure.

lol copy me why dont you, the banshee thing can be done on co-op too, as long as only the flier goes in.

hehe, yeah i think its quite a common trick. Probably lots of vids on youtube about it.
