 Once in the banshee, fly to the end just like on Easy. If the banshee starts shooting you in the back, go up and down in a wave-like pattern to dodge the bullets. It's recommended in full game Legendary to not go for the banshee roll strategy at the very end because the Fuel Rod Grunts will kill you if you miss. Instead, park above the door and then camo and drop into the door and the level end.

There are some consistent sword cancels that you can do based off of the enemy spawn patterns that you have including one that is in the room separating the first and second hallways. If you sword cancel off of one of the two grunts near the door that you enter the room from, and go over the grunt, you can sword cancel all the way to the other door. This cancel however is one of the harder sword cancels in the game.

		+	====Start====
		+
		+	When in the air lock, you should shoot your beam rifle to alert the enemies in the next room so that you have a higher percentage chance to have the grunt enemies in the correct spot for you to hit the sword fly down the hallway. The reason for the difference is that if you miss the sword fly once or twice, you will want to restart your individual level attempt anyways.
		+
		+	You may want to take the carbine into the hangar instead of the beam rifle, however this is user preference and theoretically the beam rifle is faster if done perfectly.
		+
		+	====Hangar====
		+
		+	You can do the full game strategies if you want to get an acceptable individual level time, however in order to achieve the world record you will need to do this fight differently. Instead of exiting out the hangar door to take cover, you will want to stay inside the hangar and attempt to kill the enemies quicker than you can from outside the hangar. It is recommended that you use your camo precisely and to disengage when needed. If you are able to grenade the grunts in the room quickly that will help alleviate some of the pressure and allow you to focus on sentinels quicker.
		+
		+	====Hallways====
		+
		+	In the room separating the first and second hallway, instead of going up and into the rafters above the room, you can do a sword cancel over one of the two grunts near the staircase and through the middle of the room towards the door on the other end. This is one of the more difficult sword cancels in the game.
		+
		+	====Banshee End====
		+
		+	You can attempt the banshee barrel roll at the end instead of landing above the door.

-===== Glass Clip =====
+==== Glass Clip ====
 In the room before the banshees, where the heretic leader says "Deal with him, my brothers! I will defend the Oracle." There is a frame perfect trick called the glass clip. You can see the Heretic leader through the glass, and he stands still right in front of you when saying his dialogue. What you want to do is throw a grenade at the glass so that it bounces and lands on the floor a bit away from the glass, then jump on the window-sill, for lack of a better term. Make sure that you are standing so you are lined up with him completely perfect. Then, while standing still pressed up against the glass, swing your sword at the leader two frames before the grenade blows up. If done correctly you will clip through the glass and be standing next to him and the banshees. Very important, if you do get the glass clip you have to take one of the two banshees that he doesn't take, either the left or the right one,'''do not take the middle banshee.''' If you take his banshee you can not finish the level.
