Hey, if it makes you feel better, it gets easier with time.
My cousin and I have the tradition of running the entire Bungie-era Halos every summer, after three years we somehow got to the point where we can beat H2 in a single day.
You’ve just got to learn the cheese strats, like the ones you mentioned or skipping the Sniper Alley™ by going OOB at the beginning of the mission.

Damn. H2 in a single day is impressive. You have genuine respect from me for that.
I’m collecting all the advice people are giving me for my LASO run I hope to do some day. Not sure how I’ll handle that though. Thankfully Halo 3’s Legendary seems a bit more merciful. Me and my friend did the first two levels and it wasn’t that much of a challenge. Honestly part of me misses the crushing challenge that H2 proved a little bit though

There are speedrunners that manage to finish H2 in a few hours, when I say it took a day for us I mean we woke up playing Halo, paused for lunch, and stopped playing after dinner.
What’s impressive is that last year our brains didn’t melt like they did the years prior *^*
Don’t you worry, after H2, H3 becomes a breeze, H:R may be more of a challenge without H2’s bullshit. I wonder if I’ll ever manage to try and LASO some game at some point…

How difficult is Halo 4’s legendary? It’s on our list at some point so it’d be helpful to know what i’m walking into

I don’t recall, I’ve never really liked it so I’ve completed it twice in my life and only once on Legendary. I remember some youtuber saying ammo is particularly scarce, though I think it’s on par with Halo 3? Perhaps slightly more difficult, like Reach.
