Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphors have two parts : form and interpretation; of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom being the briocoleus, the mason.

Mission 2 - found a bob running out of one of the larger structures, this is almost right after you first get the truck and you cross 2 rivers, you should see him running out towards the large structure that is located near a waterfall, failure to kill him results in him disapearing and despawning. He is gold and has a plasma repeater, I found him on normal mode.

It seems that they don't have a set time to despawn, but instead will despawn once they have reached a destination.

Bring it on!

I killed a bob on the 6th mission on Heroic... Don't know where though, since I don't have the film clip. Could be the same one as the legendary one...

Ha! How does it feel to be dead! Wait, don't answer that.

My brother was just playing "Nightfall" on normal. when he shot a bob near the hydro-electric plant. He was playing on normal, and he got a few screenshots, look below. We went to check on it later in theater and I can say that he's somewhat resiliant for an elite, taking 4 sniper rifle bullets in the torso area.

Another weird thing was that he spawned a good amount AFTER the rest of the enemies in the area. Perhaps a randomly generated chance of spawning in any area?

Now the lovely screenshots:Have fun. Three pictures, dead, alive, and damaged.

Just found this one, took a few trys before he even showed up. He doesn't seem to despawn like the others do, he'll run to an area outside sword base and just sit there.

Have one more update for now. The Elite I killed outside of the base after Rally Point Bravo on Mission 3: Oni: Sword Base is definitely a Bob. I went and killed him and ONLY him.

This shows I had one kill and it was Bob.

Bob as a Minor (regular) Elite.

Here he is in the same spot but now he's a Spec-Ops Elite.

Just call me Najar.

I'm playing the third mission right now. There is a Spec-ops elite, it's outside the building, it doesn't match up with the given description of the bob, but it runs away very strange, also there is another one that looks exactly the same inside the building, it's like hiding. Those could be the 2 bobs of that mission, when i finish it, i'll look at my stats and post a confirmation.

I am back everyone! It has been 12 hours and it looks like some crazy discoveries were made! YAY! I am going to update the front op with the new bobs locations and post that theory about how they spawn in different locations. If anyone finds 2 bobs in one mission then that means this is more dificult than it seems.

so are bobs the only ones that dual wield? or is it just elite ranking?

They are special Ranger Class Elites that sport golden armor and will degenerate after a short time and require to be killed. They give medals and count as their own enemy. Not all of them dual wield. Perhaps their weapon depends on the difficulty.

I found a Bob on level 7 (Exodus) during the jetpack section. He was on a catwalk above where the brutes spawn in the area right after you acquire the jetpack.

Can someone get a pic of this Bob to confirm?

  • 09.17.2010 3:24 PM PDT

Playing for fun, not for $ !!!

I found one underneath a staircase i don't know which level.. but it think he said in that note that he was thinking about suicide or something.. because it was getting too bad..

ill check the location next time i play that part of the campaign..

That one is a special wannabe bob that will only where White random armor but will still give the medal. It is a Bob that is only rethemed for that level.

But it's still a "bob"? does it mention that in haloreachplanet?

If not, you should email em or something.

The one I found didn't look like the ones in your picture, it had the visor helmet just like the other bobs, but it was white.

I sent them an email last night telling them we were Bob hunting over here. I also gave them a link to this thread.

Confirmed, the spec-ops elite in the third mission counts as a bob, i killed it 18 times, also, it counts when you die, respawn and you kill it again.
And i think there are 2 bobs in that level, but the second one didn't respawn this time.
Link.

I recommend killing the first Bob then killing the second one without dying (if possible) and then kill the second supposed Bob.
