I have just finished a solo run of legendary and I have some tips for you gamers out there.
:Cover, nuff said.
Always keep a ranged weapon on hand, most elites and grunts can't see too far ahead.
If you see a plasma pistol TAKE IT, one overcharge blast can kill an Elites shield which means either a headshot or melee attack will finish it off.
Drop shield is the powerup to watch out for, it shields you and recharges your help.
If your unsure whether an area is clear send out a hologram into the area, this saves you taking unnecessary damage.
Needlers are a better substitute over the assault rifle.
Never use a close range weapon, Elites kicks are insta kills.
Save your grenades and power weapons, they are life savers on this difficulty.
And finally kick some covenant butt along the way (Tbagging will make me feel happier too ^.< )
More tips courtesy of NiteShadeX:
Give AIs power weapons. A squad of marines sporting rocket launchers and fuel rod guns will go a long way.
Use the Needle Rifle on brutes, its 3HK on all but the big chieftans.
If you have to choose, pick the gravity hammer of the energy sword. The hammer will knock enemies backwards, preventing them from meleeing you. The sword will not, and most enemies (Elites n Brutes) will take multiple hits.
Hijack wraiths whenever possible. Especially on Sword base and Tip of the Spear. Use the H3 AntiAir Wraith hijack method, it keeps the vehicle at reletively high hp
