One thing I see left out of theories is that the Vidmaster oath picture used says to start at level 7 of 88:

Reach's 7th level is New Alexandria (Which happens to have switches, a BOB, and sprints you can avoid using). I think if there is something there, it is done by only doing NA on Legendary with those stipulations.

If difficulty really matters, maybe we should try some runs on EASY? It would have been ironic if thats all we had to do...

Also when watching bob vids on youtube, I notice that their spawn locations sometimes depend on player location and what direction you are facing. (thats right!)
So it might be that we need more players on exodus to see the alleged courtyard Bob.

Or maybe it is like a community challenge? Like killing a certain number of BOBS for new armor?

i think this guy is onto something


this definatly makes sence

didn't one bungie employie say ,when the rank cap was still on, that the community challenge was a test for more uses for the community chalenge.

at the time i thought they meant for bungie's myserious next game but its posible that it was regarding something sooner

Thank you for the bumps guys.

Today I am going to kill my last two (Legendary) BOBS on Nightfall and Lonewolf. After killing each BOB on Legendary, if nothing happens, it's time to try the Vidmaster idea before turning back to the medal on each level theory.

Keep hunting guys!

I keep thinking that theres a hidden achievement in the defiant map pack. please tell me you have that?

Also i believe the "I solemnly swear to never shoot when I can punch / use grenades" Simply refers to the one skull that makes you punch things to get your shield back

I know you don't get a medal for killing the BOB in a Banshee but what if you were to Sky-jack his Banshee?
I had a save point on exodus where i was standing on the upper bridge with a plasma pistal when i saw the boosting banshhe wich is bob cause he non stop boost. i overloaded my plasma pistol and got him on the bridge but i couldnt board him. hope i helped u with this information :)

  • 04.20.2011 12:07 PM PDT

If it moves, shoot it. If it screams in German, shoot it again.

what does this medal look like?
i dont think i hav ever had one, but i hav killed BOBS on several campaign missions =S
some1 help me out please guys?

  • 04.20.2011 12:20 PM PDT

Hello. I'm omega cheater.And No, I don't cheat. I play hardcore. Currently a Colonel Grade 3 in Halo 3 and a HERO in Halo Reach, soon rising, if im a higher rank and i forget to update this then whatever, I'm in a mini group called the Skull-Knights. With me is Sabor138, p22054478942, PilotRiver5, and JABBER1998 Together we are a pretty good team

Omg! i just remembered a glitch to get out of the exodus level! on the last part (with the anti air guns) you can get out of the level... you eventually find a landed banshee that is unridable! i have a theory that if you go over there to the banshee on LASO then i think youll see bob by the banshee :D

I'll try this later...

Idea!

Maybe you need to hijack and/or knock the BOBs out of their banshees on Exodus and NA. Then, kill them when they are out of their banshees to get the medals for them.

You do have some. To be precise you have 48. As it is a Bungie.net medal it doesn't pop up in games, it only shows in your medal cabinet.

  • 04.20.2011 12:43 PM PDT

Food for thought.....

There was at least one skull that Required using the forge world to shield yourself from "the gaurdians" to reach.

The skulls appeared in other game scenarios than campaign.


Could there POSSIBLY be something in the current forgeworld linked to this? (there is supposedly some big secret yet to be found there)

What about BOBS in FIREFIGHT? As the object in question is actually an enemy NPC and not an inanimate skull on the ground is it possible that there is a fleeting spawn of a BOB somewhere on each (original?) firefight map?

No Bob medal for Firefight. Sorry mate. Good idea though.
