no trust, no faith, no honesty in men

in the first mission, right when you are dropped on the "bluff" near the beacon, I have seen the silhouette of an active camouflaged elite running, following the path you take. I will try to find this again and render the film for everyone. this could be of importance, or it could just be something bungie put in for atmosphere.

This has been stated like ten times in this thread, and 5 thousand more times in the Reach forum, everyone who is seriously looking into the subject of this thread already knows about it and does not need to have another useless post in this thread, this is directed to all the people not just you.

So yeah, do we have any leads as to where the switches may be? Or is this thread mainly on the BOB's?

@CWOsiris Maybe it would be worth mentioning in the first post then? We're just trying to help, so DBAD.

I've killed the Sword Base "bob" many times, but I never get any medal for it that I know of. I just thought it was a random elite. Sometimes, he'll engage me by the courtyard entrance, or he wont appear at all.

I am not the original poster so i cant put that in the first post and after the tenth time of seeing someone say "i saw an invisible elite in the first level" i get a little annoyed. Its nothing personal, no offense intended.

Read the original post

I did, and it seemed that you guys had a pattern figured out for the BOB's (1 on each level?). I was wondering if there were any discernable patterns/leads for the switches. And I saw the part where it said your mainly hunting BOB's at the moment, so that answers that question. And by your reply, I'm guessing that you haven't gotten anywhere on the switches, either.

We have a small steady lead of switches coming in with the 3 additions yesterday. Hopefully others will post about the switches here as well. But the main purpose are the bobs since they are more dificult to find and only appear in certain places and different difficulties. While we know or believe that switches will always appear on atleast Legendary since you can't do the tribute room on any other difficulty.

Also, I will be adding to the op that the invisible elite is not a bob.

Dude wheres my warthog?

ive got 5 kills

I know of like 2 off the bat.

Tip of the spear right at the beginning after the warthog is delivered get out and hug the left wall, the AA gun is in sight and you are climbing up rocks, BoB is running down the hill and will despawn eventually. and on Nightfall, when you meet the militia guys that are engaging covenant, zoom with sniper hes in the far back,

So, that WAS a Bob I killed in the gigantic sword battle I was having in Lone Wolf earlier...

Actually, there's more than one. They're just really, really rare.

  • 09.19.2010 9:58 PM PDT

Oh nice. I've been meaning to go and find some of the Bobs. Thanks for updating the thread and giving locations of the Bobs.

Hey, I am wondering if I should make a thread for a single list of every single Bob encountered. That way I dont have to keep updating the op and there would be more space as well as reserved posts for the sake of adding to the list. Tell me what you think everyone. This thread would be the List thread and would not need anyone to post in it.

I just thought of something has anyone searched around the level Pillar of Autumn were you and Emile are on a Mongoose and the Covenant drop Scarabs right on top of you? Consider a bump if you must.

After thinking about your comment for awhile, I am going to guess if you wonder a Bob is on one of the scarabs. If that is what you were thinking, someone is going to have to go through a lot of trouble to take out the scarabs and find a bob there.

I played that mission for a while with the intention of (1) driving a pickup truck to the end, and (2) getting on a scarab. It seems like it would be "possible" to get into one, but I don't know how you could get up there. It's a really high jump, but I feel like it could somehow be done.

I just thought there may be a switch around that area because noones talked about it or there could be a bob on the scarabs but i didnt think of that, i thought there may have just been something on the ground in that area.

Are you saying it is impossible to destroy them?

  • 09.20.2010 4:32 AM PDT

in my previous post I said in "The Package" but I actually killed the fake bob in the Third Mission sorry if I confused anyone

Science has made us gods even before we are worthy of being men.



Just quickly went into theatre for my last PoA play on solo legendary and had a look at both scarabs. The only enemies in them are 3 grunts, one for each turret.

And as a side note, some of the walkways and such are actually different from halo 3. Some places have not been bothered to be very well textured, but the power core part is still there and quite textured, making me wonder if it is destroyable, somehow
