Krokus brings us our first Solo Heroic speedrun of Reach! Here is his run of Winter Contingency in under 9 minutes!
1:46 -At the first structure, he opts to jump neatly through the window and up the stairs rather than jumping over the gap. 2:35 -Then at the first group of Covenant he headshots the first Grunt he can see and hops up the ramp to run down the right side of the next area.
Once in the SPADE, as you might expect, he goes straight for the low-hovering Falcon and knocks it out of the sky with his Plasma Pistol. He whips it around the South side of the mountain and nestles it safely between the arms of the Spirit Dropship to push him through the invisible barrier.
He suffers a lot of damage going through the barrier, so when he clears out the first group of enemies at the relay outpost, he hops out to grab a health-pack and DMR. Luckily, he does this section fast enough to not get trapped in the Falcon and hops out and into the door.
8:15 – Krokus decides to not let the Concussion Zealot get away; making a good grenade bounce across the room to weaken his shields and then finishes him off with a DMR. He plows through the remaining Grunts and Jackals in the area with ease.
9:05 – He lobs a grenade to catch the Grunts in the final room. Then jumps across to meet the Sword Zealot head on; easily dispatching him with a Noob combo.
Junction reset in 8:48!
