Okay everybody knows about how hard it is to find skulls in halo 3. But i don't believe that 1 person found all the skulls without cheating unless you helped make the game, duhhhh. I found 5 skulls without cheating and they were by accident! It was the first skull in the game on the cliff,and i fell off that by accident and found it. At the end of the first level after hundreds of replays i was jumping backwards away from a brute cheftain and got up highest ledge in co-op. The first flood level because i was trigger happy, and was looking in the right place at the right time. The mission where you shut down the towers, found that one on the second tower when trying to find a nice spot to snipe banshees with my spartan laser! The one at the beggining halo in the cave because i wasn't sure which way to go. and i found all the others by googling where they were. So if anybody truely, honestly found all skulls without cheating please tell me.

I cheated.

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

I found all of them except the IWHBYD skull just by adventuring. I'm ready to admit that I never would have gotten the IWHBYD skull if it weren't fore Google.

"What's a team shoot and what's a wraith?!"
"It means we all shoot at the big blue thing together!"
"Okay!"
*starts betraying blue teammate*

I knew where almost all the skulls were before I got the game.
My friends showed me.
They cheated.

Ya, riot, shocksites are against the forum rules.

Found like 3 of the campaign ones by myself... Found assembly and orbital ones too.

Lol, same here. The only ones that I youtubed were the ones on Cortana, simply because I didn't enjoy replaying that level nor did I have any intention of exploring it (annoying moments with Cortana and the Gravemind), and the IWHBYD. The other ones were a truly fun challenge to find. I found the cowbell skull by sheer curiosity and to show off my awesome jumping skills. :p

Hates to love and loves to hate.

I found the Crows Nest one legit because I used to get on top of everything I saw, the pipe was no exception.

This is my jungle!

I played for about 1 full year offline and never knew about the combat form on flood gate carrying a skull.After which I then proceeded to google.And would never have gotten hayabusa if I didnt.

By the time I got Halo 3, my friends already had them. We played Co-op and they showed me how and where they were, I don't actually consider that cheating. 2 1/2 years later I still help whomever needs help finding them,find them.

you cannot compare Halo 3 to Reach, Reach is not a game, its a disc in a plastic green case called pure fail.

Got it? good.

I never went skull searching until well after Halo 3 had been out. By then my friends knew where they all were and I went along with them to pick them up.

Quia ego sic dico.

Found all bar two of the campaign ones (one on Cortana, another on The Ark, I think) legitimately. I thought that since in the Mythic maps Monitor mode would let me fly around, so it's just a matter of exploring rather than jumping anywhere weird. I did, however, have to youtube, and then download a map variant for the Sandbox skull.
A lot of the campaign ones were obvious. The one in the second tower on 'The Covenant' was pretty glaring, as was the one on the silo on The Storm.

Nobody in Halo 3 found them all by just adventuring.

The first people to find the IWHBYD skull had to look on the files on the Disc to find it.

Everyone is entitled to their own wrong opinion.


I'm part of the Bungie.net Minecraft group/server called SeptaCrafters
We're a Bungie.net group that goes to our very own Bungie server. Most players are from the Halo community either off Bungie itself or through word to Halo friends.

In Halo 2 i found the blind skull without cheating...of course the moment i found it i looked it up after i picked it up of course >.<
