Unlockable: Foundation Multilplayer Map (w/ Glitch)

With the Covenant weapon dubbed "Halo" destroyed, you'd think that the universe might be safe. Think again.

There's no rest for the Master Chief, and again you'll escort your Marines around the galaxy in an effort to squelch the Covenant's retaliatory attacks. This time around, Master Chief is equipped with new armor and new abilities, opening fresh facets of gameplay that require mastering.

  • Basic Training: All the tips you need to get you on your feet, including strategies to defeating all basic enemy types.
  • Weapons: Not all weapons are alike, and we break down 'em down to basics with details on every weapon, and a chart that shows which weapons are best for every situation—vital to multiplayer strategy.
  • Campaign Walkthrough: Every one of Halo 2's campaign missions detailed with all the information you need to get through unscathed.
  • Multiplayer: We've got general sweeping strategies to optimize your game, along with level-specific tips, including hidden sniping spots and the locations of the best weapons.
Unlockable: Foundation Multilplayer Map (w/ Glitch)
Unlock the hidden Foundation level in Halo 2 multi-player by completing the single player campaign on any difficulty. Due to a serious glitch in the game (and one that will not be corrected), you will need to do the following to unlock the Foundation map for a specific profile:
  1. Start a co-op game with a profile with access to the last episode (The Great Journey) and a completely fresh profile (i.e., one that has not even started the campaign game).

  2. Fight to through the last episode until the players need to board Banshees to progress.

  3. Have the new profile player perform a barrel roll (both directions) and a Loop-the-loop (stick down and A button).

  4. Complete the game as usual and the new profile will have access to the Foundation Map. Since profiles may be renamed, you can delete your old profile and rename your new profile w/ the new map.
Cheat: Grunt B-Day Skull
Difficulty: Legendary
Level: The Arbiter
Word: Grunt Birthday Party
Effect: Shoot enemy in the head and they will explode.

The very first time you get a banshee, fly down, below you is a large beamlike structure (not to be confused with the one directly below you that turns and goes vertical) running from the arm of the station you just came out of to one exactly like it on the side opposite. Below this structure are 3 cylinders hanging down, with cylinders of light shooting out of the bottom that look like they are what keeps the station floating. If my explanation is too vague, they are the absolute lowest parts of the station. Now go to the middle engine and land on the top part of it. This and the other engines connect to the large structure mentioned earlier. The tops of the engines come up to meet the structure at an angle, where this angle is under the connecting structure and coming up to meet it, there is a place to walk (like being under a bridge). Under one side you will see the six grunts with the skull in the middle.
Cheat: Catch Skull
Difficulty: Legendary
Level: Metropolis
Word: Catch
Effect: Allies throw alot of plasma grenades.

Right after you get out of the sewers(Tunnel), there is a big area and 2 ghosts, kill every thing first, then go to the middle of it where you see a arc that leads up onto a building, grenade jump by it to get enough height to start climbing it. When you get to the top take a left and hug the wall around the structure and the skull will be there.
Cheat: Envy skull
Difficulty: Legendary
Level: Delta Halo
Word: Envy
Effect: Cloak instead of Flashlight, 5 second cloak with 10 second recharge

When you first come out of the big building and see the turret and 5/6 shield up on the wall there is a wall over to the left hand side with the two grunt turrets on it, the big block and door are at the far end of that wall... In the room that the block is blocking there are two dead grunts and two plasma swords. There's a door being blocked by a rock. Jump on the rock. Then jump on the ledge that's located above the blocked doorway. Turn left and jump up on another ledge. Grenade jump up to where you'll find Two Red Elites - That become cloaked, surrounding a skull. Pick it up, and it reads Envy.
Cheat: Assassins Skull
Difficulty: Legendary
Level: Regret
Word: Assassins
Effect: All enemies in game are permanently cloaked, AI cannot see them and so are no help at all.

Just after you get off the gondola, and go in the structure, there is a big block of stone, jump on that an you can get on a ledge that leads out to the Covenant turrets, facing back towards the structure, jump up another level around the right side of the structure, It is pretty straight lined from here. You should find the Skull on a ledge when you make it around. No visible change to the HUD, BUT all enemies become invisible.
Cheat: Anger Skull
Difficulty: Legendary Level: Gravemind Word: Anger Effect: ??????? Here is another Halo 2 skull: Fight all the way through the Covenant city until you reach the outdoors. As soon as you are outside, stick to the right-hand side and walk along the wall. You should see a Covenant wall thingy with a red rail on it. Jump up to it (crouch jump helps) and at the end there is the Anger skull in a small grav-lift.
Cheat: Iron Skull
Difficulty: Legendary
Level: High Charity
Word: Iron
Effect: Allies are immune to melee attacks

On the final grav-lift on "high Charity", look up. A skull will pass you by. Hold X as it passes you to receive the status.
Cheat: Famine Skull
Difficulty: Legendary
Level: Oracle
Word: famine
Effect: Weapons picked up only have half ammo.

After getting off the long elevator ride, you will come to a room where convent and flood are fighting below you, and you have to break the glass to get to where they are fighting. If you crouch/grenade jump up on the opposite side of where you came down, the skull should be up there.
Cheat: Black Eye Skull
Difficulty: Legendary
Level: Great Journey
Word: Black Eye
Effect: Shield won’t regenerate, when you melee someone you get energy power back, so if you melee someone you get a little bit of shield. So you can get a bit at a time all the way to overshield!

SGT Johnson will pilot the scarab and shoot at a building I am calling the Control Tower. If you take a banshee to the tower you will notice that, aside from where spires jut out of it, it has a round slope all the way around. If you take the banshee right up to the slope and as high as you can go, you can almost get over it. Here you must jump out of your banshee to land on the less steep part of the slope. If you turn your banshee to the side or all the way around, it may make it easier to land on the less steep part. Also, try to have your banshee land on a platform below, so you can use it to get back. Once you are on the slope, climb the rest of the way up it. If you are on the right of the door, then you have to jump onto the ledge next to the main part of the building, and then walk up a steep part in the direction of the door. Walk up that, then around and down on the other side. On this side (left of the door from scarab's perspective) you can walk onto the hills and grass. You will notice several angled spires, some of which connect to the building. You must climb the one that is directly opposite the door you would use to enter the tower. It's steep but you can walk up it. I suggest jumping while walking to speed up the process. At the top is a skull which gives you the "black eye" effect - you only recover shields by meleeing enemies. This is only found on legendary. Reverse the process to get back to your banshee (hopefully) or just jump off a cliff and the effect will stay with you.
Cheat: Infinite / Sputnik Skull
Difficulty: Legendary
Level: Quarantine Zone
Word: Sputnik
Effect: Explosions and melee have more of an effect, which may be the result of less gravity.

From the start of the level, look to your left for an Elite. To the left of the elite there is a tunnel. Head into the tunnel and go straight until you reach a cliff. Now turn left and follow the cliff till you reach a rock wall. To the right of the wall and the cliff is a narrow passage, skull is at the end of that passage. To get sputnik skull go to the level Quarintine Zone on legendary. At the start of the level turn around and you will see a tunnel go through the tunnel and continue going straight. You will reach a cliff. When you reach the cliff turn to your left and continue going straight. You will reach a rock wall and to the right of the rock wall there is a narrow LEDGE not a passage. walk down onto the LEDGE and continue to the end. The sputnik skull will be there.

Cheat: Thunderstorm Skull
Difficulty: Legendary
Level: Cairo Station
Word: Thunderstorm
Effect: Makes Covenant "silver" and More Difficult

It’s past the two loading docks past the armory type place and in the next big room. It’s in the very highest location in the room. It’s under a trash can, I hit it out of the way and its just laying there.
Cheat: Mythic Skull
Difficulty: Legendary
Level: Sacred Icon
Effect: Unknown

After coming down from a piston, about halfway through the level, you’ll come to a room completely filled with Flood fog. Go into the room and you’ll see a stack of crates. Jump on top (while cloaked would probably work better, so the Flood don’t notice you), and across to the next highest level. If you look in the last hole in the wall, you’ll see the skull in with a dead Flood.
Unlockable: Blind Mode
At the beginning of the episode Outskirts, go through the first opening but do not head down the ramp. Instead, jump up onto the flourescent lamps over the doorway. From there, you can jump-crouch-jump onto the sloped roof to the left (jump and hold the crouch button at the peak of the jump to get onto the ledge).

Once on the rooftop, look for a narrow alleyway directly to your left. At the end of the alleyway are some grenades and a skull. Picking up the skull (hold the X button) will unlock blind mode, which removes all traces of your HUD from Halo 2 single player. To get them back, save and quit. Then choose Cairo station, save and quit and then choose the level Outskirts.
Unlockable: Scarab Gun
There is a unique gun in the level Metropolis in the single player mode of Halo 2. It is located on top of the bridge connecting two buildings after the tunnel. One method of reaching it is to jack a banshee and fly it through the tunnel. This is much easier on co-op. Another method is to use the flying sword exploit in conjunction with the marines and the warthogs. If you are on your own I would recommend shooting the wings off the banshee before you jack it so you can easily get through the tunnel. As soon as you jack it push forward even when you’re still throwing him out, so it doesn’t blow up. Once you’re out of the tunnel fly up to the first 2 buildings with a bridge connecting them. The gun is on that bridge but its kind of hard to see so fly low over the bridge. It is in the form of a plasma rifle and fires bursts similar to those that come from the wraith.
Hint: Prophet Of Regret
When you get to the end of the level "Regret" you will have to fight Prophet Regret. Instead of battling all of the grunts and honor guards run straight at the prophet who is on a hovering throne. Dodge the honor guards with energy swords. Board his throne by pressing x. Use melle attacks and he will be killed within a few hits. If you are playing on hard or legendary you will have to do this multiple times.
Glitch: More Ammo And Extra SMG
Note: This works in single and multiplayer.

For just testing this glitch it's easiest at the start of the first level because of all the guns lying around. First you need to find four one-handed weapons, a few of which must be the same type of gun.

To save confusion I'll just say the 4 guns are 3 SMG's and a Pistol. Pick up the Pistol and 1 of the SMG's (NOT dual-wielding) Your left hand should be empty.

Have the Pistol in your right hand and pick up one of the SMG's off the ground with your left hand. You should now have a pistol in your right hand, an SMG in your left hand, and another SMG in reserve, leaving only one SMG left on the ground.

Stand over it and even though you already have an SMG in reserve it will say "Hold X to pick up SMG" Hold X to swap your Pistol for the SMG on the ground. If you did it properly you will now be carrying all 3 SMG's, 1 in each hand and the third in reserve, giving you a maximum of 540 extra rounds rather than the usual 180, (or 360 if you dual-wield) This will work with any one-handed weapon.
Hint: Vertical or Horizontal Splitscreen
In a two-player splitscreen, Halo 2 will automatically change whether it's a verticle or horizontal split, depending on whether your Xbox is in widescreen or normal mode. In widescreen, the screen will split vertically (one screen on the left, one on the right). In normal screen (4:3 aspect ratio), the screen will split horizontally (one screen on top, one on bottom).
Hint: Tank Weak Spots
The two tanks in Halo 2 have different weaks spots (and strong points). The human Scorpion tank has a turret that is almost invincible; it's naturally vulnerable in the body and the four tread motors (which count against its hull integrity).

The alien Covenant Wraith has a very strong glacis (the front armored bulge where the pilot is). Consequently, it has a very weak rear.

Rockets affect both tanks as if the weakest facing is used, meaning two shots will knock out any tank.
Hint: Vehicle HWP Shot Table
Number of shots to destroy a vehicle in Halo 2:
  • Ghost - rocket x1, gauss x1, grenade x1, sniper rifle x8
  • Spectre - rocket x1, gauss x2, grenade x2, shotgun x6 (close)
  • Warthog - rocket x1, gauss x2, grenade x2, shotgun x6 (close)
  • Wraith - rocket x2, gauss x3 (front), gauss x2 (back), grenade x13, tank shot x2
  • Scorpion - rocket x2, gauss x4 (body/tread), grenade x15, tank shot x2
  • Banshee - rocket x1, tank shot x1, shotgun x6, brute shot x4 (impact)
Hint: Destroy the Ghost
Facing the Ghost from behind, to the left, behind the left wing is an alien gas tank shaped like a circle. It's only on the left side. Shoot it 3 times with pistol or 1 time with the shotgun and say good bye to it.
Hint: Magic Sword
  • This cheat requires two people, on any level in Halo 2. Note that both must be on opposite sides, but the point of this is not to kill your opponent, but rather to help him (or her.) Have your Plasma Sword in hand, and have someone jump on top of your head. While targeting them...have them jump on your head, and press x and b as fast as you possibly can, you should follow your friend up as he jumps on you...see how high you can go, or better yet, where.
  • Get in the passenger side of a warthog, and target your friend and pull the right trigger. Have your friend run as far as he or she can to the other side of the level and get out. Once you do, aim where you'd like to fly and take off.
Hint: Brute-Shot
The melee attack is almost as powerful as the energy-sword but it needs no power. Melee attacks are devastating especially against flood but also against jackals and other scum.
Hint: Dual Weapon Wields
A plasma weapon destroys shields faster and a human weapon overloads the "damage threshold" for unshielded players, thus the best combo is always an Alien-Human combo.

1.) SMG and Plasma Rifle
2.) SMG and Plasma Pistol
3.) Magnum and Plasma Pistol

But don't think that these are better than just human or just plasma. Human-Human and Plasma-Plasma weapons work good too.

1.) SMG and Magnum
2.) Dual Magnums


There is also a very wide variety of good choices between your primary and secondary weapons but that list could go on for pages so go play and learn them.
Hint: Snatch the Sword in Zanzibar
If you start on the beach in Zanzibar, you have to climb your way up to the sword, and that kills time. If done right, you can just toss a grenade up into the hole and the blast will propel the sword out of the whole and to the ground below. This quickly gives you one of the most powerful weapons in Halo 2.
Hint: Easy Brute Boss Fight
On the very last level in Halo 2 when you get your banshee and Johnson gets the scarab, if you shoot of your wing you can fly the banshee into the temple. This makes it impossible for the brute chief to kill you but you can kill him. This is very useful, especially on legendary when he's almost invincible.
Hint: Warthog Soccer
Play a round of soccer in Halo 2! In the Metropolis level, there will come a point where you must destroy two Wraiths that are laying siege to some marines in a building (just before the sequence where you must board the Scarab). Just as you enter this part of the game you will see a few marines in a Warthog battling against a couple of Ghosts. Surrounding you will be a few building and one in particular that looks as if it has been filled up with rubble. If you can manage to get inside this building, on the lowest floor hidden in the corner is a giant Soccer ball (you will need the Banshee to get there). You can then push the soccer ball out on to the road below. If you move the witches hats to make goal posts one player, in co-op mode, can commandeer a warthog, and the other can get in another and you can have a giant game of soccer.
Hint: Huge MC
This can only be done on multiplayer. On the level burial mounds put on wraiths then have player 1 get in the wraith and drive it to the pillar that looks burnt where the ghost is. Have player 2 stand at the bottom where the pillar slants and have person in the wraith press the L trigger. This will send player 2’s dead body through the wall. If the body looks like it hits something round while it is flying through the wall then look in the sky and u will see the body in mid air as big as the arena.
Hint: Sword/Rocket Launch
Get a sword and a rocket launcher on any level. (it can be in campaign or multiplayer). Aim at an enemy with the rocket launcher and hit the (Y) button and the right trigger simultaneously. If done right you will fly at the enemy you were aiming at.
Glitch: Scorpion Tank Pinball
Enter the Zanzibar map with a Scorpion Tank in the heavy vehicle spawn. Push the tank into the windmill (or drive it in). This only works if your go front first and you're on the side facing the power generating station. As the windmill pushes the Scorpion upwards, drive forwards and if done correctly, the tank will fly out of the windmill, pinballing all over the place.
Hint: Energy Sword In Outskirts
Do-able on cooperative mode. Fight through the stage to the Hotel Zanzibar (hotel next to the Warthog ride on the beach).

There is part of the hotel's building that is burned off. There is a ledge that you and your buddy can reach. Jump on your partner's head. Notice that there are pipes sticking out. Jump on one of the pipes then walk back in the little area.

Have your partner kill himself and respawn where you are (plasma grenades are best - throw straight up, and then stand on it). If you are quick, you can also use the sniper rifle and kill your buddy, then move quickly back to your spot. Make sure you (the guy on the roof) move far back enough to make the buddy spawn next to you.

Once that's done, both of you walk back out on the pipe and do a partner jump (one guy on top of another guy's head). He/she will have jump on the roof closest to them. Kill the lower player and respawn next to the higher player.

Walk futher and futher down the roof. Turn left where the roof turns and if you keep walking straight, you will come to the part where you fought the aliens and those jackals in sniper alley. Turn left again where the roof turns and walk straight but don't jump off to the lower roof. As you walk you will see a big hole in the roof somewhere. Look down and there will be a plasma sword with full energy. (Unverified)
Hint - Halo Contra
For those of you who have a little trouble getting through mission The Great Journey on Heroic or Legendary, here is a little game glitch to help you with that.

When you start the level you'll be helped by an Elite Leader (the Covenant team that dropped with the Arbiter). When you get into the Spectre, race up to the part where you battle a single wraith, quickly get as close as you can get to it without getting yourself and the Spectre killed, because you need that Spectre to do this glitch.

Get out of the vehicle and attempt to board it and continuously press melee until the enemy inside it dies allowing you to get in. After that, continue to the part where you fight two wraiths and a few brutes,

Let the Leader kill them and help when the drop ship shooting at you goes away. Once all the enemies are dead, tip over the Leader's wraith so that he'll fall out of it.

Then destroy his wraith, then use the Spectre (or if you can't find it go back aways and try to find it). Once you board the Spectre allow the Leader to get in and just drive in through the doors until you come to the door where the Spectre won't fit, get out, and blow it up. Then after you go through the checkpoint the Leader should go with you and through the whole battle.
Hint - Squeeze Your Allied Slaves
On any level with allies in them, you can make a Marine or Elite live longer by giving them better guns by swapping with them.

Marines, for example, do not easily kill enemies with a pistol or an SMG. Try giving them a shotgun, sniper, or a Battle Rifle. Do not give them a rocket launcher or they will kill themselves. Metropolis is a good level to give them a rocket launcher.

Elites have shields, unlike their ally counterparts, the Marines. They can carry more weapons than Marines too. Give an Elite a carbine for headshots, a Plasma Rifle for fast gunfire, and an Energy Sword for easy killings. The Energy Swords involve charging headfirst into battle with barely anyone to cover him. An Elite might be killed that way after taking down a couple enemies, whereas an Elite carrying a gun could take cover from meters away and still kill enemies.

Grunts are like unarmored supports for you and the Elites. Trade a Plasma Rifle or Fuel Rod Cannon for their Plasma Pistols. Yes, a Grunt CAN carry a Fuel Rod Cannon or a rocket launcher. I've tried it.

Just because your allies have good weapons, doesn't mean that they are all powerful. They can still die. Help them fight and complete objectives. If any of these allies are to die with great weapons and help from you, you may revert back to the last checkpoint to save them.
Hint - Arbiter's Ground Glitches
1 - Phantom Bumper Cars -- Go on the Arbiter level, then look around at the Phantoms that dropped you off. Scope in on them, and follow them as they fly away. With your eye still on them, go over to the left (the left when you started the level) and stand on the slope at the edge. If you lost track of them, an easier way is to just run to the edge, and look at the bottom of the building in the distance, it should be in front of your face if you just strafe left. Okay now for the egg. You should see three Phantoms zooming down at top speed, smashing into the building and smash into each other in a bumpercar extravaganza! After that they will spiral down until you can't see them anymore.

2 - Bouncy Weapons -- On the lift that you go down in into the Hanger, bring a dual-wield weapon with you. Activate the switch, and press Y to drop your left gun. It should bounce around the lift as you go down!

3 - Screw Up the Storyline -- My personal favourite. When you get to the part where you see the Heretic Leader through the glass, and he says, "Deal with him my brothers. I will defend the Oracle, blah blah blah." Make sure you have the Plasma Sword. Aim at the Leader, and lunge at him. Arbiter should just stop at the glass. Then, while still against the glass, do heaps of jumping, crouch-jumping and crouching, attempting to lunge him all the time. If you do it right, (it will take a few tries) Arbiter will fly through the glass at the Leader! He is invincible, but you can knock him off the edge and kill him that way, steal his Banshee, or (if you are an arty person like me,) have a look at him for drawing purposes. Be warned that if you do this cheat, you cannot finish the level, because the Phantom will sit there shooting at it, and it will not trigger any enemies or anything.
Hint: Reset Thy Ammo
Expended all your ammo at the end of one stage and don't have enough to muscle past the start of the next one? Save and quit your game -- provided you acutally unlocked a new stage on the Stage Select, you can head back into your campaign (via stage select) and get a fresh batch of pre-assigned weapons for Master Chief.

Co-op players already know from Halo 1 that your partner and you can kill one another (one a time) to restart with an initial ammo load when you started the stage.
Glitch: House Of Flying Energy Swords
This bug/trick may be used in any level (and on any mode, Campaign or Multiplayer). To perform it, you must have both a plasma sword and any other firing weapon (the rocket launcher works the best).

Equip the non-sword weapon and place the reticule over a valid target (i.e., an enemy) such that the reticule turns red. Press Y to change weapons and the instant before the sword's reticule replaces the non-sword reticule, pull the R trigger.

If timed correctly, the player will lunge forwards as if the sword locked-on the target to deliver the lunging sword strike. Note that this glitch is effective regardless of the distance between the player doing the glitch and the target.
Hint: Banshee Vs Tartarus
On the final level "Great Journey", you will have to fly the banshee. You are told to enter the door in the huge structure. Fly up to the door and exit the banshee, make your way through the tight cave like hallways and open the door. Kill the brutes in this room, make sure you kill them all, do not use the banshee, they have brute shot and are good with plasma grenades.

After clearing the room, go back to your banshee and fly through the door, immediately start flying up, and you will notice a hole, fly through it. Continue flying through the holes you see and down through the door. Make your way to the right side of the room and down the long hallway (while in the banshee). A cut scene will take you out of your banshee to where the chieftain and 4 or 5 brutes are standing, after you kill them and the chieftain jumps to the center, make a 180 back to the hallway and get in the banshee.

Fly in circles around him, blasting him with all the banshee weapons. After a while, when his shields go down, you will have to land your banshee on the bottom level and engage the chieftain, shooting him, just pissing him off. When the brute reinforcements come, get back in the banshee and continue to bomb them and the chieftain until you are victorious.

NOTE: if you have trouble at any point, for example, if it seems it is taking forever to kill the chieftain, jump out of the banshee and engage him for a few minutes, just don't get killed (but if you do, your banshee will be waiting in the same spot you got it from) after a moment of fighting him on foot, jump back in it and continue, eventually he will die and you will be a lot safer in the air then down on his level.

Submitted by BBS

On the level, The Great Journey, there is a much easier, faster, and simpler way to get the Banshee in the fight against Tartarus than to try and fly it through the tunnel.

You can only do this after Johnson has used the Scarab to blast open the door to the temple. Notice there is a ring shape that surrounds and is part of the building. Also, you will see that there are lights shining from the ring shape onto the main building. Fly towards the ring shape on the right side of the temple at the same height as the door. You will see one of the lights shining onto the temple. Fly straight at the spot on the temple where the light is shining, and aim down once you have hit the building. The slower and straighter the better, or else you risk losing your Banshee.

After flying into that area, the cut scene for the battle against Tartarus begins. You have completely skipped the brute battle. When the cut scene ends, turn around and head towards the hallway which you would have come through. If done right, the Banshee will be sitting there, and Tartarus won't have a chance against you. Extremely helpful on legendary!

Glitch: Rooftop Hotel
In the single player level of Outskirts, you can get on top of some of the highest buildings and even on top of Hotel Zanzibar, all in about 2 minutes - thus saving time while passing half the level. When the level first starts, go out the first door, kill the solitary grunt on the ramp but don't walk out that door. Walk back up the ramp and over the door to your right (where you entered the level) is a flourescent light. Crouch jump onto this and then crouch jump onto the slanted ledge to the right of that. Look to your left, there should be a skinny hallway. This is where you would find the "blind skull" but that isn't what we're trying to do.

If you look at the entrance to that tiny hallway, you will notice a tiny, dark brown spot that is in fact a ledge. Run at this at a slight angle and tap A until it feels like you have double jumped onto the ground above that. Walk to your left and then walk across the I-Beam to your right. At the end of the I-Beam, look to your left and there will be a slanted structure coming off the building. You can crouch jump onto this to get on top of the first scryscraper. Once on top of this building, look left and you can jump onto another building. Considering that you are walking in the same direction you just jumped, walk straight to the very edge of the corner of this building. Wait a few seconds, and the Pelican will arrive where it always does, and you can jump down off of the building on top of it.

After waiting a little while, the Pelican will start flying back up. This is where you can jump off of the Pelican's right wing on to the building next to it. When you get on top of that building, you can turn right and jump the gap to the next building. Just ten feet after the gap is where the roof branches off to the left. Walk down this little stretch and at the end, jump down off the right side of it, down onto the red roof. Keep walking straight after you land, up the little ramp, un til you find a couple air conditioners. Jump onto one of them and use it to jump onto the roof to the right. Walk this roof for about 20 feet until turning left. You should see the front face of a scyscraper, but it's side is invisible (graphics glitch). This is where you will know when to turn left. Keep walking straight from here and you will fall down onto the top of Hotel Zanzibar.
Glitch: Pelican Ride
In the level metropolis, you can ride in the pelican,(getting the sputnik skull is required). First,get to the part where you must save the marines trapped inside the building. Destroy the two wraiths and ghosts.near the wraiths are stairs.go up them and wait till a pelican arrives. As soon as the marines get off the pelican (except the gunner)hold x (there wont be a message telling you to hold x). Soon you will be in a pelican. You ride it untill it crashes into some water. Somehow, when it crashes you will still be alive, floating above water. If u go near the pelican, it will say,hold x to flip banshee(weird isnt it?). When you press it it will keep fliping for a while.if you see anyone who survived, kill them and their body will float as well as their gun. To exit this, kill yourself or pause the game and revert to last checkpoint. Remember you need the sputnik skull to do this. This glitch cannot be done in co-operative mode.
Glitch: Floating Guns In Quarantine Zone
In the level Quarantine Zone, after the gondola ride ends and the chapter "That Old, Familiar Feeling" begins you might hear an Elite say that he hears something. You might also hear some faint static-like noise. This is the sound of two SMGs firing. To get to the source you need simply to get to the gondola the Humans were riding. The easiest way I found is to go to the end of "your' gondola nearest the gondola the Humans rode, and grenade jump from the rail to get on the structure in which some of your elites stand.

Now, jump off this structure towards the part of "your" gondola that is nearest to the "human" gondola; be forewarned that the wall toward which you are jumping is fake, and you will pass through it. Make your way from the beam of "your" gondola to the beam of the other gondola via a jump. Now you need to grenade jump over a wall to be on the main part of the "human" gondola.

As you near the exit of the gondola, and begin to enter the Library where you find a dead human you hear the static sound – the sound of SMGs firing. As you walk toward epicenter of the sound – the door leading toward the centre of the Library where the Index/Sacred Icon is found – you will see two SMGs floating in midair and firing – does this remind anyone of the level 343 Guilty Spark in Halo? You can "Hold X to swap" and the gun(s) will continue to fire in your hand. It only has one clip, so after a few seconds of it firing you just hear the trigger being pulled.

You can also juggle the weapon toward/through the door and have it shoot at you in the cut scene if you so choose. The gun fires throughout the entire length of the cut scene. Your previous weapons will not, however, hover and shoot like the SMGs you swap.

And wait, on halo:combat evolved the sheilds broke when parked over but in halo 2 the spring you up! the tank(along with you in it) are sent hurtling up and can land in an unlimited amount of places! some times you can land on the pelican its self and fly off or you could go so high that you get stuck in the air!(dont worry though as the checkpoint is just b4 where you go over the sheilds) and where you go all depends on the order of destroying the shields and where you put the tank. Be warned though this can cause you and the tank to go straight into a wall causing the tank to explode and sudden death!

Famine Skull
After you get off of the slowly decending elevator in "The Oracle", you will come to a hallway where you see a handful of dead bodies. Continue into the next room, and you will be on the second floor of a room that has windows. When you enter this room, look to the right, and find the third pane of glass. It should be to the right of a wall that has some flood guts splattered on it. Shoot out this window, and either window directly across the room. If you look below you will see a platform that has four tall posts. On the far side of the room there is a column that is right in between the two windows, on the far side of the room. Turn on your active camo, and jump to the center platform. Jump on either of the posts on the far side of the platform and jump to the column between the windows. Make another jump through the window you shot out and make a left. Walk all the way to the end and you'll find four flood elites convulsing on the floor, with the Famine skull in the middle of them. When you have this skull all weapons will have less ammo.

Prophet Rocket
As a hidden surprise, Bungie decided to give us a preview of H3. The Prophets WILL fight in the next game. When you "fight" the Prophet of Regret, don't kill the honor guard. Run directly to Regret and press X,X,B,A,Y while holding an energy sword. Board his ride, melee him 3 times, and he's dead, so hurry up before the guards kill you. DON'T KILL THE GUARDS! Finish the level and change your profile to an elite. You can only have the Prophet Rocket on Coagulation(multiplayer), but it's awesome. The launcher fires three rounds at a time, but doesn't home in. It is twice as fast as the human rocket launcher, in other words, it kicks asssssss!!!!!! Good hunting!

Flaming Baby Ceremony
When I first discovered the cheat I crapped my pants three times cause it was so funny(my basement is disgusting now). Activate blind mode in the outskirts on legendary. Go through the level killing everything with the skull only the skull. Then when you get to the part in the big city kill the marines not the covenant and don't let the covenant kill any marines you have to kill them all. Then go back where you found the skull there will be a grunt there he will say" I took this guys suit and now he is naked but anyways here is his suit. It will say on the screen hold x to get suit it is Batman's suit (sweet). Then jump through the glass ceiling in the middle on top floor of the building. When you land there will be a grunt taking a goat on a unicycle back to the top where you fell through the goat will explode shooting rockets everywhere. Jump out in front of a rocket and get hit but because you are wearing the Batman outfit it won't kill you. Now you can fly and when you shoot your gun babies comes out. Congratulations you can give birth to babies anytime now. Time to crap your pants!!!!! :)

Flying in Multiplayer ,xbox live Glitch
2 people are needed for this, get a sword each a warthog and a bashee, go to one ende of the map with a warthog (have a sword) get in the passenger seat have the other player stand near you lock on ang hold r, get him to fly to the other side of the map( as far away and high as possible) when he does press x keep r held in and you will fly in the air this is good when you have a sniper rifle and fing a landing zone.

Tank super jump:
Level:delta halo: get in the tank cross the bridge and go to the part where there are like 5 or 6 shilds(that you hide behind) then kill them all go on top of them (roll over the stands) let them appear then you wana either shoot the gun or move the tank ( stay in the tank thou) then you should get blasted in the air (this might kill you) also it might not work the first time or you'll get a dud so try again. good luck!

Give your squadmates better weapons
Once you have almost used up your sniper rifle, beam rifle, or rocket launcher (with 1 shot left ), trade with your squadmate. Once they have that weapon, they have limitless ammo for it and can help you out immensely with the more powerful weapons. There are two points to note: if you try and trade your weapon back from them, it will still have the same amount of ammo that it had when you gave it to them and the energy sword cannot be traded with human squadmates.

Energy sword on old mambasa
on old mambasa go to the spot were the covenant pour out of (the spot were johnson will say more on the street left side)there should be a dirt pile jump onto the dirt pile and crouch jump onto the rafters keep on jumping around the buildings(make sure the building you are jumping to is on left hand side)when you go far enough there should be a hole on the roof of a building if you jump down this hole there will be a energy sword planted face down in the floor. if you continue farther you will find the end of the map (a sea of grayness)if u throw a grenade at the grayness it will stick to the wall spin and explode. happy findings =)

Energy sword in zanzibar
When you enter zanzibar there will be a giant windmill looking thing. go to it and get in front of one of the spokes. when you do that wait for a second or two and you will find the spoke is able to walk on. when you see it walk on it until you get to this little half circle thing. walk off of it to the stone platform. when you get to the stone platform turn around that way you are looking the opposite direction of the base. once you do that you will see that there is a little chamber you can walk into[ no you will not fall off of it because you're upside down].stay there and the windmill will rotate for about two seconds then you will see a little room and floating inside it will be an energy sword. this can also be used as a sniping area for the defenders.

Secret Swords
On the level Delta Halo where Cortana says "Their all pouring out of the center", when you are walking into the building where they are coming out of look to your left. Their should be a large cube shaped block blocking a small tunnel. For those of you that know where the envy skull is the block i am talking about is the one that you have to jump on to get the envy skull. Around 5 well placed grenades should move the block just enough for you to fit in to the tunnel. At first you will see nothing but darkness but as you walk forward you will see two glowing beam swords on the floor.

Wierd writing on Beaver Creek
In the multiplayer map Beaver Creek there are two high up ledges with sniper rifles, the one to go to is the one next to blue base. Once there you will see that slightly to the right of where the sniper rifle is pointing there is another cliff. Jump on that cliff, then on that cliff you will see a large bump with two rocks on it. Knock both rocks off by melee attacking them several times. Behind the largest rock there is what looks like hand-written text that says "Why am I Here", there is some smaller text underneath "Why Am I Here" but I can not read it. Make sure not to get too close to the words or zoom in on them otherwise they can not be deciphered. If you have any problems e-mail me at Phacops596@hotmail.com

Giant weapons stash
Go to the place in Campaign mode on the level Delta Halo when you have to activate the bridge to get over the canyon. First, activate the bridge, cross the canyon and destroy (or run past) the Wraiths. Next, go through the tunnel, as soon as you exit the tunnel go directly to your right. You will see an enormous rock wall that supposedly makes it so you cannot exit out of the level. Use a ghost and ram yourself into the wall in different places. At first you will not go up the wall but once you find the right spot you will be up the wall in a matter of seconds. After you have cleared the wall go up the hill in front of you then down it and you will see a relatively flat triangular plane. Go to the edge of the plane farthest away from you facing the water and edge your ghost slowly down the steep hill toward the ocean by making the ghost go in reverse, making you slide slowly down the hill and not die. At the bottom of the hill GET OUT OF YOUR GHOST otherwise the secret area will not be where it is supposed to be. Now go to the edge of the cliff facing the ocean and you will see a large, very plain structure in the ocean to your right. There is a support beam going to the lower ledge of the cliff. Walk over to the lower cliff and jump on it, NOT the Beam, and walk around until you see “Loading” or “Loading done” on the upper right corner of your screen. Finally walk down the tunnel and you will find yourself in a giant area with a waterfall and every weapon in the game.

Change MC outfit colour in Co-op
This only works in co-op. on Outskirts just after the pelecan has dropped off some marines near the jackal snipers,one of you stays on the ground and the other jumps up on some boxes and ledges so you can get up to the pelecan and get on in it, DONT STAY ON IT!!!, it will fly off and dissapear, what you have to do is jump off the back end onto the roofs while zooming in and out fast (doesnt matter what weapon) before it takes off. Then just as your about to hit the floor hold X+Y while zooming in and out, it can be tricky but practise makes perfect. If done correctly you should fall into the floor, now when you spawn back by your friend every time you zoom in and out your outfit will change similar to the multiplayer ones. Happy Glitching! :D

Get on the very top of Lockout
THIS REQUIRES 2 PEOPLE - weapons set as rocket and sword

When at Lockout ,have 1 person go through the blue portal which takes you to the main level. As soon as you hit the ground turn to your left and jump onto the ledge. Go as far right , while still on the ledge, as you can and look down. You will see the platform below you. Have the other person go down there. This person should stand almost right under the person on the ledge. Aim the rocket above them as far as you can with it still being red. Repeatedly hit x + y + R at the same time. It may take a while depending on how experienced you are. BUt doing this should send you flying to the top. When you start flying crouch to be sure you make it up there. when up there you can turn around, jump and go up even higher.

How to fly
Ok this tip is kinda hard. First On the Level Metropolis you are on the bridge. Make sure you destroy every Marine you have. When you get to the Middle of the Bridge there are two marines (sniper and Rocket launcher). Kill them both and then there should be some banshees coming. Get to the very end of the bridge and when a banshee comes Jack it. Once youve Jacken that Banshee There should be a covenant ship where you are at. To spot this ship look on the left side of the bridge when your coming from the begining. As you can see the ship has a covenant vehicle under it. Wait a while till the ship leaves. When the ship is going straight you think its gonna leave. Its not its gotta drop the covenant vehicle off. So this is what you do: When it stops to drop the vehicle off get on top of the ship, get out of the banshee and land on the ship. Be careful not fall off. And dont shoot any banshees that follow you. Trust me your gonna need them. Now the Ship should take you to where you are not supposed to go on the other side of the map. Once you get there your gonna think that level is crazy! When you travel In the ship MAKE SURE YOU DONT GO ALLLLLL THE WAY TILL the ship dissappears!!!. Trust me its like a 1000 mile walk to get back where you were. When your still on the ship and your over the tunnel get off asap. Then some banshees should still be around. Quickly travel near the edge on top of the tunnel entrance note:top not bottom and when a banshee arrives jack it and when you do all of a sudden YOUR FREAKIN FLYING ACROSS THE BRIDGE LIKE 1000 MPH ROFL. Let me Guess your gonna say well why do all those steps when i can just simply jack a banshee and fly on top of the tunnel entrance. Thing is, you can't!

Eventually you will Fly towards him. After some practice you will be able to reach the 2nd crane in the sky and then perhaps as i did. find the huge massive secret place.. The highest building actually lol. When you reach the highest building you will see no floor but a little grey statue thing infront of you. you can walk through it. its cool try it.

Scarab Gun
When you start on the level Metropolis first kill all of the marines you see and find.Then while going across the bridge kill every one you but make sure you have a ghost by the time you get off the bridge. destroy all the banshees exept for 1.lure the banshee into the tunnel and through it. destroy the warthog that's in the tunnel and the marines and the covenant so that nothing happens to the banshee. This is the really hard part. When you come to a little pathway that escorts you out of the tunnel and the circuler part the banshee should stop. you should see on your screen loading... done. When it says that right away get in the banshee and you can't be too early and you can't be too late. and if it works you should be able drive the banshee. When you're outside fly toward the two towers you should see when you kinda fly upward and there should be like a bridge conecting them and land in the middle. you should see a triangle with a exclamation mark and a plasma rifle above it. And that's a plasma rifle with the power of the Scarab gun.
P.S. if the banshee gets stuck run behind it and a little back so it can target you. This also might take a couple tries as it did for me. I'm not kidding. have fun desroying eveything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ultimate glitch on splitscreen
Ok got to headlong. on headlong go bye the soda machiene tip it over with grenades now jump on it while your on it press right triger three times making sure you only shoot three amo.then jump off run to a warthog any one and go off the broken road bridge thing when you jump turn to the right and land on the swinging platform get out of the warthog and jump on the metal bar in front of you and blow your self up with a grenade when you fly off the metal bar turn off the xbox then on and go back to headlong then go back to the soda machiene its should be floating duck and go underneath its you should fall through the ground and when you look up the ground should be right in front of you and your floating in mid air this way you can kill people and they cant kill you and to get out go underneath the soda machiene you can see bottom of soda machine and jump and youll be back on ground and this is how i got ultimate hiding spot you go under a box in the open and jump and youl fly up to the highest building this glitch may not always work.

Reload Shotgun Faster
When you are about to reload your shotgun hold down R and hit X. Then let go of X and you shotgun will be in the firing position but it will still be reloading. You must have more than 1 bullet shot to do this glitch.

Rocket Lunge
This glitch allows you to lunge great distances. To use this glitch, you need a rocket launcher and a sword. Randomly discharge all of your rockets. Now locate an enemy. When out of sword range take out your rocket launcher and aim at the enemy. Then repeatedly press Y and R switching from one to the other. If done fast enough, you will lunge at the enemy.

Unlimited Sword Ammo
You can do this in any two-part Campaign missions (i.e. Outskirts and Metropolis). If you finish the first level of the two-part mission with a sword with no ammo, you'll start the next level with a sword that has unlimited ammo. Though the sword doesn't show up when you arm it, it still makes all of the sound effects and acts exactly like a normal sword.

Hold 3 Pistols!
First Go to a level that you can get three pistols on, such as outskirts. Go pick up a pistol. Then swith to your second weapon and pick up dual weapon, such as two smg's. Go to another pistol and press x to pick it up. Now you have a pistol in you secondary and first slots. Now you can go pick up a third pistol and set it to your left hand(Press Y to do this). You can get up to 144 AMMO! with three 96 ammo with the two and just 49 with one.

Not Drowning
Level:The Great JourneyWhen you come to the part where Johnson is in the Scarab, head to the shoreline, go in the water (Note:it is NOT a cliff!), and you should walk underwater without drowning!

Long Distance Lunge
This works best on splitscreen. To do this you will need to have any gun and a sword. Have your gun out and aim at an enemy. Wait 'til the target recticle turns red then push Y and R at a moderate speed. If you do this right you will fly at the enemy! If you don't want to kill your enemy switch back to your gun in mid flight!

Grab Items Through Walls on Beaver Creek
When you are inside either of the bases in Beaver Creek, go to the back wall of the room where the bomb or flag is supposed to be. You should be able to grab the Plasma Pistol or the SMG on the other side of the wall and if you are playing Assault, you can then have someone stay inside the base and grab the bomb from the inside and get an easy score!

Changing Split Screen Type
The multiplayer split screen type is determined by the video settings on the Xbox dashboard. For Horizontal split screen, the Xbox must be in fullscreen mode. For Vertical split screen, the Xbox must be in widescreen mode.

Skip Sniper Alley!
Level: OutskirtsHow To: Once you have killed The first hunter pair at the start of the level walk through the hole in the wall they created. walk through and look around. there should a destroyed wall to the left of you. jump on to it and make your way upward by carrying on jumping upwards, crouch jumping when nessasery. you should eventually reach the roof tops (it may take a while to find and/or reach). from here head toward the left hand side part of the roof tops. you should see part of the destroyed highway that the first pelican flys along once it has picked up the sgt. jump onto this highway and walk across it. at the other side you should see a slope and in the distance the hotel where the next group of marines are pinned down. jump off the hight way and walk up this slope to reach the hotel skipping the sniper alley.

Get a Scarab Gun
This is done on the level Metropolis and is easiest when done on Co-op. When you start out, cross the bridge. Take out every enemy and even your marines. When you're near the end, Cortana will say something about a "Welcome Party". Three Banshees and a few ghosts will appear. Take them all out. Then 2 Wraiths and 2 Banshees will appear. Take out both Wraiths, and only one Banshee. Have Player 1 continue through the tunnel, but have Player 2 stay outside and distract the Banshee. Once Player 1 reaches the area with the circular opening (a Jackal with a Beam rifle is present), take out the Jackal and head back to where Player 2 is. Here is the hard part. Get the Banshee to follow both players into the tunnel. Do not board it yet! The first few times it will come at you and fly back out, but stay where you are. It should come back after you. (If it doesn't, go back outside and try again). Eventually, you'll have to get it over two road blocks. Once it is past the second one, have both players stand near the entrance of the room where Player 1 took out the Jackal. It should fly at you and get stuck. Shoot off both of its wings so it can fit thru. Have Player 1 walk slowly in front of the Banshee, making it follow him. Player 2 should be behind it, gently pushing it. Take it to the left and get ready to board it. As soon as you hit the checkpoint, the Elite in the Banshee will disappear. You only have about a second to get in before the Banshee also disappears. Both players should press X quickly. If done right, one of the players will be driving the Banshee!Take it outside and directly up. Very high in the sky are two skyscrapers with two bridges connecting them. In the middle of the bridge closest to you, there is something that looks like a plasma rifle. It's actually a Scarab gun! It has infinite ammo, so have fun. Just don't aim at the ground.....

Two hidden swords on Halo Delta and a fight to skip.
On Halo Delta, get to the structure where you can't go any farther with the tank. As you enter into the area, go left up the ramp and then up the little ramp until you come to the large block butted up against the wall. This is where you jump up to get to the Envy Skull (consult for more detail). There is a secret entrance behind this large cube. I found the easiest way to move it was with the tank, although grenades do the trick just as well. You can drive the tank up there with a little patience. Aim at the WALL to the left of the stone, The explosion with slowly move the stone out of the way. Once the path is clear, walk up the dark ramp and there will be two dead grunts and two swords. There is also a high ledge in the next room that you can grenade jump up to, and then frag grenade jump up one more level -- allowing you to skip the fight inside the structure.

Fast Flag Captures-- CTF Colossus
After grabbing the flag on Colossus, instead of walking all the back with it try running straight forward and tossing it over the wall. A well-timed throw will make the flag bounce off the floor in the center area and all the way to your side of the map, where one of your teammates can easily capture it. It takes some practice to perfect but it can turn the tide in a close game.

Easy flag grab in Coagulation
Get a vehicle and drive to the enemy base, and go underneath it. If the banshee is still there you dont really need your vehicle but its just in case. Park it directly under their flag. Jump on you vehicle and jump up holding X. You should be able to grab it thru the floor.

Grabbing weapons through walls.
In many maps, you can grab weapons through the wall. In Ivory Tower, you can grab the sniper rifle from the platform below, just jump and hold X. In Burial Mounds, go under were the rocket launcher spawns and hold x and jump, if you do it in the right spot, you should grab it.

Skip fight around the Delta Halo tower
After the cutscene with the hologram regret telling you how he will start the ring in Delta Halo, continue until you see a crate. Then jump on it, then onto the legde. walk around until it loads the checkpoint. You will have skiped the battle.

Skip half of outskirts
(From the beginning of the level where Master Cheif is alittle dazed) Go straight out the door in front of you that leads to the street. kill the grunts and take out the sheild baring jackels. Head down the street towards the two dead ends. Look on your right and you will see two alley ways that will connect to each other in this little sort of "room" in the alley. Go into that room and look back towards the street. You will see a dirt mound that is in one of the corners. Get on the dirt mound and grenade jump up to the next ledge. Look left you will see another ledge (top of a building) you should be able to jump right up to the ledge ,but probably not on the first try. When you are on the building you can continue jumping from building to building all of the way through sniper alley. Once you reach the building that says "Zanzibar" on it is the point were you cannot get any farther using this way. Once you are on the first building walk over to the edge of the building that faces the street. Look right and jump onto the building next to you. Keep working your way back and try to stay as close as you can to that side. You will eventually come to the free part of the level where if you look right you will see a Pelican come. If you had to look fight to see the pelican you are on the left side of the freeway. if you had to look left to see the pelican you are on the right side of the freeway. If you are on the left side of the free way go left until you see a street (on your right side) that is torn up and the end it looks like. Jump off of the freeway into that street and you can walk over the damaged part of the sreet ( a hillish type thing) And that will put you at the building that says "Zanzibar" on it. If you were on the side of the right side of the freeway then crouch jump onto the buildings in front of you. Look on your right you will see a place were the height of the roofs drop and a certain roof is orange and red. If you don't see it go right and alittle bit forward until you find it. jump straight on to the roof. If you jump onto the slanted part an invisible barrier will block you from going up. once you are on the building go up the little slanted area (make sure it is the up hill one) You will see two airvent/airconditioning unit things on the roof jump on one of them and onto the next building. head straightyou will see the building that says "Zanzibar" on it. It is a good idea to kill the covenet below before jumping down. Then it is back to the normal level.

Warthog Super Jump
Entry Location:
Anywhere with a warthog

Go to any level multipayer or game, and enter a warthog, have your friend stand in front of the warthog while you sit in the passenger seat with an energy sword. Lock on to him and pull the trigger and hold on to the triiger. Have your friend walk about 50 to 80 feet ahead of the car.Once you see your friend from a distance, look up(so you can go flying up)and release the trigger and hit the X button(aka sword cancelation). You will go flying up into the air. This is great for multiplayer especially at Zanzibar to get on top of the wheel.

 
 
 
Grunt B-Day Skull
Difficulty: Legendary
Level: The Arbiter
Effect: Shoot enemy in the head and they will explode.

The very first time you get a Banshee, fly down. Below you is a large beamlike structure (not to be confused with the one directly below you that turns and goes vertical) running from the arm of the station you just came out of to one exactly like it on the side opposite. Below this structure are 3 cylinders hanging down, with cylinders of light shooting out of the bottom that look like they are what keeps the station floating. If my explanation is too vague, they are the absolute lowest parts of the station. Now go to the middle engine and land on the top part of it. This and the other engines connect to the large structure mentioned earlier. The tops of the engines come up to meet the structure at an angle, where this angle is under the connecting structure and coming up to meet it, there is a place to walk (like being under a bridge). Under one side you will see the six grunts with the skull in the middle.


 
 
 
Blind Skull
When you start off Outskirts (They'll Regret That Too), walk over to the 1st door and look up at the halogen light, then jump up on top of the light. Then look up at the wall with the stripes and jump toward it. You should land on top of the lower roof. Once you're up there turn right and you should see a dark hallway. Walk to the end of the hallway and look look down to find the skull. Pick up the skull by hitting the X button. Be WARNED this is the "Blind Skull" so your motion sensor, your gun, and entire HUD will be erased. To stop blindness turn off your Xbox and start over.

 
 
 
Assassins Skull
Difficulty: Legendary
Level: Regret
Effect: All enemies in game are permanently cloaked, AI cannot see them and so are no help at all.

In the level Regret, on Legendary Difficulty, immediately after the gondola ride following the battle with the Hunters, there will be a building with two turrets on it. Enter the building and turn to your left. There will be a box. Jump on it. From there jump to the adjacent light fixture, then to the ledge. The ledge leads to the area with the two turrets. Once there use a grenade jump to get onto the roof area, then, using croutch jumps and grenade jumps, follow the right side perimeter of the building. Once you have gone as far as you can go you will find a small grassy area with two cloaked dancing elites and the Assassins skull. Once you pick up the skull all enemies will have active camoflage.


 
 
 
Iron Skull
Difficulty: Legendary
Level: High Charity
Effect: ???

On the last Master Chief Level, on Legendary Difficulty, when you enter the final Gravity Lift, look up. A skull will pass through you extemely quickly so you must start holding "X" a bit before you actually pass it to grab hold of it.


 
 
 
Envy Skull
Difficulty: Legendary
Level: Delta Halo
Effect: Master Chief cloaks like the Arbiter

On the level "Delta Halo" on Legendary Difficulty, progress until you reach the area during the "Push through the covenant held ruins" scene where you have to clear a Landing Zone for the Pelican to drop weapons. I beleive you will know you are in the right area when Cortana says "They're pouring out of the center building." The area has Plasma turrets along its borders. A little bit past the left side turret you will see the outline of a door in a wall, but the door has a solid rock slab in it and a rock in front of it. Jump on the rock then jump to the ledge above the door, then jump on the ledge to the left. Now jump onto the building with the sealed door using grenades. Atop the building you will find two dancing elites and the "Envy Skull". Pick up the envy skull and you will be able to use Active Camoflage like the Arbiter.


 
 
 
Thunderstorm Skull
Difficulty: Legendary
Level: Cairo Station
Effect: Covenant vehicles are more resistant/ All elite forms take their highest level.

After you take out the second room of Covenant boarding the ship, the game says "Priority Shift". Shortly after this you will go to the armory where you will have to take out a couple of Elites. The next room is "Commons B.01" (a large room with trees and a window at the end on the second floor that has a plasma turret. The skull is on the highest ledge behind you, above the doorway where you enter this room. Take out all the baddies and proceed to the window with the turret. Jump to the left onto the ledge from the window. You'll notice several diagonal supports that lead up to two thin rails that run the length of the room. Make a well timed jump/duck from one of the diagonal beams to the rails. Follow the rails all the way to the other end of the room and you will see a ledge on the left with a trash can. Knock over the trashcan to reveal the "Thunderstorm" skull.


 
 
 
Angry Skull
Difficulty: Legendary
Level: Grave Mind
Effect: ???

Fight all the way through the Covenant city until you reach the outdoors. As soon as you are outside, stick to the right-hand side and walk along the wall.
