The armor core is unlocked really early
The firstHalo Infiniteeventis now live, and all of the details therein have been fully revealed. The first round is going to run from today through November 29, at which point it’ll go on ice until January.you’re able to find the full schedule here, but for now, let’s dig into theHalo InfiniteTenrai rewards.
So it looks like you’ll progress the separate “event pass” via special challenges, such as “win fiesta matches” or “kill enemy Spartans in fiesta matches.”Fiesta is a limited-time modethat tasks players with getting kills while “spawning with random weapons and equipment on a variety of arena maps” in a 4v4 format. Simple, right?
Developer 343 describes theHalo InfiniteTenrai event as “separate from the Battle Pass,” and it is indeed its own little tab in the pass screen: utilizing the same system as seasons.
30 tiersare confirmed, and there’s a decent chunk of filler items in there. The main thing you need to know:Level 5 will grant you the Yoroi Legendary Armor Core(read: the samurai armor from all theHalo Infinitepromo material). So even if you find the event grindier than expected, you can still get the big draw at level five out of 30.
As far as leveling up goes, after one game (where I completed two rewards) I reached level two. Most of the challenges seem very basic (get kills, complete games), outside of one that requires a killing spree. Note that in the Fiesta gametype where weapons are random, swords are extremely powerful. So if you spawn with one, make sure you keep it, or try to stick to open areas where you can take down your would-be melee assassins from afar. Also, weapons are random in both slots, so try swapping if you don’t like your primary.
343 has seemingly confirmedthat you will not be able to finish all 30 tiers in the first week, which is uh, a choice.
