Streamer Jervalin completed the run in a little under six and a half hours.
A $20,000Halo 2challenge issued by streamer and YouTuber MoistCr1tikal has finally been completed, with streamerJervalinclaiming the bounty.
Halo 2 on legendary difficulty is already infamously difficult.
There are more, high-rank enemies (and just more enemies in general), for starters.
Enemies deal greatly increased damage, have better weapons, throw more grenades, and are far smarter.
Melee attacks from Elites and certain Flood forms will kill in one hit.
All that’s before turning on the game’s difficulty modifying skulls.
With various skulls turned on, Halo 2 on legendary becomes a whole different ballgame.
The Assassins skull, for example, gives enemies permanent invisibility.
Mythic gives enemies even more health and shields.
Famine makes it so all weapons dropped by enemies or allies have half ammo.
Any mistake, no matter how small, almost certainly results in instant death.
It is, to put it lightly, absolutely brutal.
Completing the challenge would have been hard enough even without the no-deaths stipulation.
He wasn’t above using a few tricks to emerge victorious, either.
After his victory, his family ran in to give him a hug.
“You couldn’t script a more wholesome finale here,” MoistCr1tikal says in avideo congratulating Jervalin.
Only 25 people ever made it past the first level, MoistCr1tikal says.
Now, he’s $20,000 richer, and his feat will go down in history.
