If there actually is one.
There have been many threads about finding the Legendary Ending for Halo: Reach, most if not all of them have been in the Reach forums which seems to be entirely comprised of people trolling, so I thought I would throw this one out there to the intellects of the Bungie forums (blam modesty, amirite?).
Insofar it doesn't seem that anything has actually been found. There has been a quote by Brian Jarrard confirming a Legendary ending and mention of an Eagle landing on N6's helmet meaning we've found it. There have been multiple attempts by countless people to figure out what particular mystery switches do on certain levels (with quite a bit of success, check Halo Reach Planet.)
People (Sarsion for example) have finished the campaign on Mythic difficulty (Legendary with all skulls on) and people have found golden armoured Ranger-Elites called BoBs, but perhaps not all of them.
I'm sure that I'm not the only person to be intensely interested to know if there is a Legendary ending, and if so, what kind of delicious tidbits it holds for us down here in the Bungie Universe forum, so I suggest that this thread be used as a library of information relating to the Legendary Ending.
Here are some of the Easter Eggs that have been found, but that don't seem to have connection to the Legendary Ending.
Switches on 'The Package' unlocking 4 Banshees
The memorabilia room
The Siege of Madrigal easter egg
and of course the locations and transcripts* of the datapads
UPDATE: Reach Racer
If you hear of any rumours, please let us know through this thread.
*don't read into the capitalised letters in these transcripts, they spell out Halo Reach Planet.
UPDATE 1: Speculations
Vidmaster's Oath first brought up by Placid Platypus. (click the link to read the pledge). It's an old Marathon thing.
The implication is that in a playthrough:
- Press all the switches
- Kill all the Bobs
Others that can be speculated at:
- "Never use the Caps Lock as my run" = don't use armor abilities
- "Admit the existence of no level except total carnage" = only use grenades. Or perhaps no use of Small arms, or only allowed to use heavy weapons/grenades. Or only melee through the game.
Unreleased Legendary Ending
- A few things in the game are being released slowly. Gametypes, ranks and armor. Perhaps in time, determined by Bungie, we will find it. Perhaps we need to be the highest rank possible before we unlock the ending.
There is no Legendary ending
- It could be that there actually is no Legendary ending. Personally this doesn't at all seem like something Bungie would do, but others have their own mindsets.
