The Banshee BOB's have to be it, why else would Bungie make a challenge to kill the BOB on that New Alexandria if they weren't indirectly showing you that there is no bipedal BOB on the mission? The same goes for Exodus.
Now, about Exodus...
That particular BOB spawns in three different locations.
Location 1:
As you cross the bridge where the Focus Rifle Jackals are shooting you, he will speed through the skies above you in a Banshee.
Location 2: (my least favorite)
As you take off in your Falcon, after destroying the Shades, he will spawn to the left of your Falcon and weave under and around your Falcon. Your only choice is to gun him down via the Falcon turret every chance you get. Not always easy...
Location 3: On the Beach Head area when you approach the bridge with the Plasma Launcher Brute, the Banshee will speed by overhead. Luckily, rockets are at hand and you should be prepared by keeping it in your back pocket.
Also, I am currently attempting to play each mission on Legendary without dying AND killing the BOB's. I will report back if there is any success. P.S. Lone Wolf is a mother... I keep trying the hardest one first and boy is it making me pay.
Things I have discovered on Lone Wolf:
1. The BOB is NOT time sensitive.
2. The BOB only shows after you've killed enough Covenant... If you don't believe me, camp somewhere on Legendary (I recommend in the ceiling tiles of the main building without shooting at anyone, ignore the wraiths...) OR (run to the pipe stack and jump in the top pipe with the Drop Shield AA... killing Grunts is necessary)
3. The Wraith CAN BE HIJACKED. This may be the key... I'm currently playing cat and mouse with them to get them close enough to jack. I successfully jacked one, however, was unable to make it back in time. It is possible! I needed to snipe the canopy off first and DMR the Elite a bit before boarding and pummeling. WARNING: Killing the pilot via weapon will destroy the Wraith. FYI.
There's some good feedback for you. Enjoy.
