Envy Skull

Play the mission under the legendary difficulty setting. Continue until reaching the area during the "push through the covenant held ruins" phase where a landing zone for the Pelican to drop weapons must be cleared. When you reach the area where Cortana says "They're pouring out of the center building", note the plasma turrets along the borders. A short distance after the turret on the left side is the outline of a sealed door in a wall. There is a rock in front of the door. Jump on the rock, then jump onto the ledge above the door. Next, jump to the ledge to the left. Then, grenade jump onto the building with the sealed door. On the roof of the building are two dancing Elites and a skull. Get the skull and the word "Envy" will be displayed. You can now use active camouflage.

Warthog

In the beginning of the level when you are storming the hill, it may be tempting to pass by this part. However, stay in that area until you survive both waves of Covenant that the Phantoms drop off. A Pelican will appear afterwards and drop off a Warthog for you and your teammates.

Tank launch

 Xbox  Note: This trick works better under the easy difficulty setting so that the tank does not get beat up as much. Play through the level until reaching the point where the Pelican drops the tank. Get in the tank and continue until reaching the part where you normally have to leave of the tank to complete the level. There are lots of stationary plasma shields and weapon containers drooped by the Pelican. Destroy all of the plasma shields with the tank, then quickly park it on the empty shield generators. Do not move. Wait until they have respawned, then move. You either will be thrown up into the air or intently killed. Also, if it flips your tank over and you automatically get out, quickly press X to flip the tank and you may be smacked up into the air.

Hidden swords

Follow the path for the "Delta Halo: Envy mode" trick. Once you reach where the skull is located, turn to the right and jump down. Then turn around and go through the doorway. There should be two swords and two dead Grunts.

Play through the mission until it says "Off The Rock, Through The Bush, Nothing But Jackal". Jump down from the waterfall and follow the stream to where it ends. There should be an energy sword here.

Have the Sputnik Skull activated. Go to where you obtained the Envy Skull and go to the part were a giant rock is in front of the door. Instead of getting on top of the roofs, stand between the rock and the wall. Melee the rock out of your way to get the two swords.

Hidden sniper

When you reach a hall before the fortress with an hologram of the prophet, there will be a gray wall behind you. With a help of a friend, climb the wall, then search a bush. There will be a sniper, ammunition, and a dead Marine.

Sniping practice

Near the end of the level, before you go down the ramp to the temple, take out your sniper rifle or get the beam rifle next to the rock. To the left of the temple, there will be a bridge-like structure with two Elites and a pair Of jackals patrolling. To the right will be another bridge with two Grunts, a Jackal (on higher difficulties he may be another sniper), and another Elite. You can snipe them, and at the next level have less enemies to worry about.

Grunt Actions

In the opening sequence of the level, you will see a Jackal talking with a Grunt. Under the easy and normal difficulty settings, the grunt is rolling his finger in the dirt. Under the heroic difficulty setting, the Grunt is playing with fire. Under the legendary difficulty setting, the Grunt is playing with some kind of doll.
