Learn how to complete the Foxhound Squad distress call in Halo Infinite. Get tips on taking out Jackals, Brutes, and Grunts to save the Marines.

Alright, so you've got a distress call from Foxhound Squad in Halo Infinite. This one pops up during the 'Excavation Site' mission, which is the fifth main mission. You'll find them on the second island, specifically west of FOB Charlie. Your job is to get over there and help them out!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    When you get close, you'll see the Marines from Foxhound Squad pinned down by a bunch of Jackals, Grunts, and Brutes. The best spot to get the advantage is a nearby hill overlooking the fight.
  2. 2
    From this hilltop, prioritize taking out the Jackals that are sniping from the opposite hills. They're a real pain if you let them keep firing.
  3. 3
    After the snipers are down, focus on the Brutes. These guys are tough and soak up a lot of bullets. A good strategy is to pepper them with fire, then use your Grappleshot to quickly close the distance. Once you're right on top of them, a melee attack will finish them off.
  4. 4
    Finally, mop up any remaining Grunts. They're weaker, so they should be the easiest to deal with once the bigger threats are gone.
Tips
  • Use the high ground! The hill overlooking the engagement is your best friend for picking off enemies safely.
  • Don't be afraid to use your Grappleshot aggressively against the Brutes. It's perfect for closing the gap and getting a quick melee kill.
  • Focus fire on the most dangerous enemies first – the snipers and then the Brutes.
