Halo 4 LASO Shutdown in 14 mins (no deaths)

Описание: Legendary, All Skulls On run. (AKA 'Mythic Difficulty') on the 6th mission with full commentary.

Because of how much you can skip (2/3 of the mission) and with some fairly cooperative Elites on the first floor of the 3rd tower, and a fairly easy Banshee rush for the 2nd floor, this is, so far, considered the easiest mission to LASO. However, that may soon change with the massive number of tricks on the level 'Reclaimer' - where you will have to fight fewer enemies, but execute far more tricks.

My general tactics:
Skip to the Third tower with the Pelican Skip.
Use a DMR from the Pelican to carefully take out all the Grunts and Jackals, including the ones on the turrets.
Wait for the 2 nearest Gold Elites to get on the turrets in place of the Grunts. Kill them with nearby Light Rifle.
Kill the other enemies on the platforms leading to the Gold FRG Elite.
Wait for the Gold Elite to be close to the nearest light-bridge and then use the man-cannon and sprint to close the distance rapidly and assassinate.
Use FRG / Incineration Cannon on the two Hunters blocking the lift. Use Shattershot if getting impatient.
At the top of the lift take out the two Grunts in turrets visible to the left and right.
Rush Elite when he is not looking and engage in melee battle for assassination.
Take Banshee, fly underneath platforms, hop out at top level and drop down, run up ramp.
Wait for talking. :(

P.S. I mentioned that LASO speed runs come later but, to be honest, without an accurate timer I'm not sure there is enough incentive for anyone to do serious speed running in Halo 4.
