Commentary
00:02 (Ghost; launcher & needler) On my Ghost trip I successfully squeeze through the narrow gap to the left of the rock, but clip the next rock, which leads to trouble, eventually losing me six health bars. Bit of a rough passage! I briefly go up on the entrance rock after that, to wreak a bit of havoc. A bit later on (1:28) there's a needler duel with a blue Elite.
02:06 (Banshee; needler & AR) I do some relatively careful work at the start of this battle, but soon an explosion breaks up the line of three Banshees and things get a bit more fraught, though I do still have great cover. In the second phase of the battle I'm a bit too late to save a Marine from getting tagged by a Grunt, and he ends up being launched skywards right in front of me.
04:26 (Banshee; sniper rifle & launcher) There's some excellent sniping fun to be had, such as seen here where I get onto the big rock to create some loose plasmas then get them detonated. Talking of which, my second plasma throw happens to tag a Grunt for good measure.
In creating the set-up, I was careful to make sure that the rock (the 'pass entrance rock') had this particular design, so I could easily clamber up to attack from it when desired.
Closing remarks One more movie of this clutter fun left, as I continue to showcase different ways of playing things.
