Subject: Regarding BOBS. (Read Whole Post)

Ok many people have got their own opinions on this subject so every has to respect each others opinions.

Guys the Banshee on Exodus does not have a BoB inside of it. I have watched it blow up and nothing drops out. I have even got inside the banshee in theatre mode and proven there is no driver of the Banshee and no BOB inside it.

For those of you that need proof (picture or it didnt happend) well here it is:

Picture Of The BoB Banshee On Exodus and Proof That The Banshee Has No Driver And is 100% Empty.

Same as Bobshee on NA. Unsurprising. Should stop talking like Mordin now.

I love Mordin, no -blam!-.

On Topic: We must also remember there is a difference between people's opinion and fact vs. fiction.

Example:

"What if there are hidden achievements?"
Opinion.

"There are no actual elites in the Bobshees"
Fact.

"There's huge yellow banana on NA"
Fiction. (Probably).

Not sure if everyone knows. There are three confirmed BOBs banshees on Exodus. One may fly over head as you cross the bridge after the sniper rifle. One immediately after taking off in the falcon that spawns beneath you and is hard to kill by yourself. And one after hitting the first AA switch at the end. They seem to be random as to which one spawns. All three count if it is the BOB challenge. Easiest way to kill them is with the plasma pistol.

Has anyone ever thought, Hmm? Maybe the BOBs on Exodus are Invisible?

I think he meant about all of the Exodus BoBs, not BoBs in general, that's why he said "those Bobs".

dont wait till you are too old to say you wish you had,....instead accomplish your dreams grow old and say im glad i did

after a certain time period bobs cloak and also just fade right out.
literally.

i was shooting a cloaked bob earlier and he dissappeared right in front of me,While i was shooting him.

also noticed this,same game.
carnage report-6 elite specialists killed.

next..- 10 elite light vehicle kills...?

so then i go check my medals and ive killed ten more bobs.
do those numbers make any sense?

if it helps i think? vaguely that my elite heros count went up too.

How do you know there's no BOB on Exodus, just because there's no Elites in the level? Has a BOB ever been constrained by in-game reality? No. They disappear into thin air, for god's sake.


The reason theres no elites on Exodus, is because of technical limitations in the game.

Storywize, the elites would think too highly of themselves to murder civilians, and therefore this level has brutes in it instead. There would be no point adding a couple elites here and there, since then you would have to load the elite model into the level anyway..

There have been rumors of elites piloting the wraiths, but my friend killed the pilot on co-op and didnt get an elite on the result card.

However many levels have both brutes and elites. So theres really no way to know.

We have been raised for combat...
We carry our banner to our fights...
Alone we are a menace, together we are a threat...
Born to raise hell, live to drop back in it...
Never retreat, never surrender... we are spartans.

I think I know which banshee has a BOB on Exodus...

You see: when we get on a falcon, lots of banshees pop up right? And if you pay attention, when get off they all die... now when we get off we have to turn on the missile turrets and there's usually a few falcons, BUUUUUUUUUUUT... sometimes a lone banshee pops up.

I think the Banshee that flies around the missile turrets carries a BOB.

You can tell if its a Bob or not because Bobs are constantly boosting.

Has anyone ever fully explored Exodus? There's bound to be a few hidden spawns...

I keep thinking the same thing.

And maybe we are supposed to find a switch that removes the softkill boundary.

I just wanna see whats on top of that tower. (the main tower on which the landing pad is)

Maybe their will be a community challenge like the one were the community had to get 117 million challenges completed to get rid of the rank cap but this the community has to kill 117 million BOBS or the community has to kill 77 million BOBS.

Thats not a bad idea!

I just remembered, there is in fact an ACHIEVEMENT called "Banshees fast and low"

Fear is the path to the Dark Side!

It seems the same comment keeps coming up. But to be clear:
It has been tested and the BOB Banshees cannot be hijacked, even after EMPing them.
It has also been confirmed with Golden Challenges that the constant boosting Banshees on Exodus are counted as BOBs for the challenge, same as the NA Banshee. The Banshee BOBs do NOT give a medal on bnet.
The question remains if there are any walking BOBS on either level. Or if there is something else we must do to appease Bungie.

I am curious... in the interview with Frankie when asked about any armor with the map packs, it is clear there is no new armor with the packs. However it sounds like maybe there is something with the maps that may help unlock the armor already there. What if like the Halo 3skulls in dlc, there is something to find on the new maps... just a thought.

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


I think that this is the most likely, if you got the helmet for killing a BOB on every level I'm sure someone would've discovered it by now.

Someone would of discovered it if it was available to us, community challenge or not.

If this helmet was avaible to us, we would need the mesh files or else we'd get errors.
Those files do not exist in our system so = we don't have it.


BUt keep your sarch for BOBs going, i wanna see how far you'll go before you realize all your doing will end up to nothing lol.

It would be funny if it is just for bungie employees.

Such a huge troll.

I search for BOBS + play matchmaking and I'm a higher rank than you Kira. ;)

117% of people are confused by this sentence

Hmm, maybe the BOBshee's are to put us off. There has to be BOB's around the buildings and sections around Exodus and NA.
I guess they just made the BOB's super hard to find on those missions.
