    This. Slayer on Reflection, first game, got it.

    In fact ive played a total of ONE games of multi-team. It seems the best, seeing as four of the six teams had a player wit 30+ kills.

    After a couple of mid to upper 20 kill games of crazy king, I finally got my "Like Mike" weekly challenge on Multi-Team Oddball with exactly 30 kills.

    ANother really nice way to get assists is using armour lock when you are in a duel with somebody and your teammate comes and cleans up the kill.

    But yeah multi team is great for assists and Crazy King would make it even better with the fixed area as the target.

    BTB would probably be the toughest if you are without vehicles or power weapons though

    Ive been playing Invasion to try and get the Like Mike challenge and my closest one was 26 kills, I was so sad when I only had 10 seconds left.

    Easiest way to get the 30 assists is in Elite Slayer in Multi Team. Charge a plasma pistol at every guy you see, don't kill him, or beat him down, just take out his shields, and let everyone else take the kill. I got this challenge in 3 games.

    Actually it's most easy in Crazy king. 12 other people running into a hill at the same time gets you a lot of kills.

    Yeah that too, and that's what I suggested to do for like mike, and that worked out just fine too.

    Invasion is easy for assists as well, you can always play as an Elite with the option of using the Plasma Pistol, unless you get Invasion Slayer and spawn as Spartans, but Invasion Slayer is normally avoided by most Invasion players.

    Invasion isn't as easy to get assists as Rumble Pit or Multi-Team... simply because you have more allies/enemies. Any time you drop the shields on one player and any other team goes in to finish them off... it's an assist for you. With Invasion, you've only got 6 enemies and 5 allies... and they're usually divided up amongst the objectives. With Rumble Pit you have 7 allies and 7 enemies. With Multi-Team you have 11 allies and 10 enemies. Much better chance of someone going in to finish off what you started.

    I finally got my Like Mike and the assist challenge done in Invasion. I got all 30 of the assists in Invasion because my team split into two groups for each generator so i got a ton.

    Man are today's challenges easy! Nothing better than easy credits!

    FYI... the plasma pistol does not count towards the Be Their Huckleberry challenge. I just played a round of Gruntpocalypse using only the Pistol and Plasma Pistol. Only 78 of the 119 Grunts were counted towards the challenge.

    Sadly, people will most likely ***** and gripe that these challenges were so easy and the weekly was so much harder and only worth 2,000 cR.

    Weekly Challenge: Multiteam, Sword Base, Crazy King
    Got 40 kills. Heard this guy in the pre-game lobby going 'Woah, what the hell!? This guy got 40 kills. Its like he never went for the hill!'

    And sadly I was on 22 assists when the challenges switched over. :(

    If you want to get Like Mike I highly recommend Multi Team so long as you're not terrible. I'm usually getting 30+ kills a game and have a new found appreciation for the shotgun. Plus you can get tons of commendations.

    I got to 29 kills in a wraith on blood gulch... soo close. then someone scores the flag to end the game. and he KNEW I was going for the challenge.... grrr.

    Even though its only 2000 cR I'd really like to get this one. Its one of the harder weekly challenges I think.

    Anyone looking for a quick way to get 25,000 points in a campaign mission, follow these steps and it'll take literally 5 minutes.

    -Heroic Difficulty
    -All gold skulls on except Iron and Black Eye
    -Long Night of Solace mission, Rally point Alpha.

    Actually... Long Night of Solace, Mission Start.

    Kill the squad of Grunts.
    Kill the Elites in drop pods.
    Kill the Jackals on top of the hill.
    Instead of fighting your way up to the entrance to the Launch pad, follow the water along the left.
    Pistol the grunt in the Wraith turret.
    Dodge the Wraith fire and hop into it's turret. The elite will jump out of the Wraith.
    Hop out of the turret and immediately drive the Wraith and kill the Elite.
    Drive the Wraith off the docks and follow the path along the water back where you came from.
    A Covenant Drop Ship will constantly drop off some Elites, Jackals with shields, and Grunts. Take them out with the wraith and work your way around and near the Launch Pad entrance.

    This area will act like a slow paced game of Firefight with a neverending sqauds of Coveys arriving by Drop Ship in that same spot by the beach. You'll also have a constantly replenishing supply of Marines working with you to take out that Squad of Coveys. You occasionally have to watch out because of another Drop Ship that drops off Coveys where the Wraith was located.

    Just keep wiping them all out with the Wraith until you get 25,000 points.

    I destroyed the banshees and phantoms on the last level with the cannon on Normal, took me a few tries to get the 25 000 but I did end up barely getting it before the cruiser started glassing.

    I also got the commendation for destroying vehicles up :D
