00:00 Okay, so you want to get the snazzy new samurai armour in Halo Infinite. Well, you're going
00:04 to have to put in some time into the Tenrai event, but it's not that simple. Bear with
00:10 me and I'll try and explain it all.
00:13 So for starters, this armour, the one they've used in all of the advertising for this event
00:18 and arguably the sickest one, you cannot get in the game at all right now. It's not there.
00:24 It's not in the battle pass, you can't grind your way to it, you can't pay for it and
00:28 343 haven't said when it'll even be available. We think it'll be in one of these future
00:34 event weeks in January or February, but who knows?
00:38 There are two other things you need to know. This event is free and will get you some nice
00:42 looking cosmetics. However, even if you played for days on end, there is a limit to what
00:47 you can unlock. You can only unlock these first seven in the first week. When the event
00:52 ends, your progress should be kept so you can come back to these in later weeks to keep
00:56 unlocking more stuff. So it's nice you're not forced to do everything in one week, but
01:02 it does mean that all of this cool stuff that you actually want isn't going to be available
01:06 until March or April. Can you be bothered to wait that long? I'm not sure I can.
01:13 So this is where the frustration of having to wait probably pushes you towards buying
01:18 the cool samurai armour outright or getting the battle pass. So how does the battle pass
01:24 help you? Well, players who pony up for the premium battle pass are able to work towards
01:28 completing four challenges at once rather than the baseline three. You also get more
01:34 challenge swaps. These challenge swaps basically let you swap out a challenge you've been
01:38 given to make it easier on yourself. So for example, instead of having to get a headshot
01:43 from across the map with a sniper, you get something easier like play three matches.
01:48 The Tenrai event pass is also filled with challenge swaps and XP grants to fill in the
01:53 gaps. The XP grants in this event pass do differ from the battle passes XP boosts as
01:59 they give at least a certain amount of XP rather than boosting the amount of XP you're
02:05 earning for a limited time. So it's just a big chunk of XP you can be given which can
02:09 put you up a couple of levels instead of you having to play matches to get XP that is then
02:13 multiplied as you're getting it. This means they should really help you climb through
02:17 the regular battle pass levels. The fracture Tenrai event for Halo Infinite multiplayer
02:22 has its own event pass that works similarly to the regular battle pass. It's only got
02:27 30 reward tiers instead of the usual 100 and it's free for all players. So you won't
02:32 have to spend any real money to get a premium version of the event pass. You can also access
02:37 it as soon as you log in while the event is at least still active. There's no need to
02:40 download or unlock anything to get access, which is great. So here are most of the rewards
02:47 that you can get from the free Halo Infinite Tenrai event pass.
02:51 So how do you start progressing through all of these levels to start getting all that
02:55 nice looking stuff? Well, you can only level up the Tenrai event pass by completing very
03:00 specific challenges. The special Fiesta playlist challenges that are currently active are marked
03:06 with an orange banner to show that they are specific to the event. So look out for them.
03:11 Completing one of these event challenges will give you one level. One event challenge, one
03:15 level. Which is great, nice and simple. So you'll need to complete 30 event challenges
03:18 to complete all the way through this pass and get all those things that you just saw.
03:22 Now remember, it's impossible to do this in the first week of the event as you can
03:26 only do seven challenges, seven challenges, seven levels. So don't bother grinding Halo
03:31 Infinite multiplayer as hard as you can in the hopes of finishing the pass ahead of the
03:35 upcoming events because there really is no point. The first mode with these challenges
03:40 is Fiesta, which you can find on the normal game mode list in the Halo Infinite multiplayer
03:44 lobby. Fiesta follows the regular four versus four slayer rules, except all players spawn
03:49 with a random weapon and equipment loadout. Using your random weapons or picking up new
03:53 ones from defeated players, you've got to reach 50 points before the other team do.
03:58 There are probably going to be different game modes throughout the events in the upcoming
04:00 weeks. At the moment it's Fiesta, probably change something else. So keep in mind when
04:04 you're playing each mode, what challenge you're trying to do. Earning 10 assists is a very
04:09 different play style to getting a double kill. So be aware of what you're trying to get
04:13 for that challenge. So the Ten Rai event will occur six times over the course of Halo Infinite's
04:18 planned first season. And that first season ends in May 2022. So it's going to take a
04:24 while to get through all of those levels when you can only do seven in each week. And each
04:29 week isn't concurrent. As you can see here by the list of dates, they're split up. So
04:33 you've got to wait a couple of weeks and then you can do it. So you've got to get through
04:36 all of that big slog for a long period of time and you might have to wait till May.
04:41 So in summarising all of this, most of the cool stuff you're going to have to pay for.
04:45 And while there is some things you can get for free, which is great, it's probably going
04:48 to take around six months to get by playing very specific game modes. Good luck Spartans.
04:55 Seems like it's going to be a long slog.
