Subject: Regarding BOBS. (Read Whole Post)

in oni in swordbase once you pass the "blockade" when needed to come back to the base, go back to where you started off from and there is a random elite (no golden, white and a high ranking) dual wielding plasma rifles, is he a bob?

  • 04.24.2011 12:07 PM PDT

He's a BoB yes, he gives the medal but he's called a wannabe because he's not the right color/armor.

maybe the bobshees aren't meant to have anyone in them maybe its just empty so people cant ride in them and so they stick to "normal" gameplay


no. because you can hijack other banshees in the same area but not a Bob'shee.

  • 04.24.2011 1:23 PM PDT

maybe, in exudus/NA you have to activate certain easter eggs to find the BOB. thoughts?

If there are confirmed gold bobs and white/silver bobs why are people disregarding the idea that there are the same many gold bobs as gold skulls in halo 3 and the same amount of white/silver skulls as bobs?

Because there are 3 silver bobs(different spawns) On One level only , Sword base.
Every other level has Golden Ranger Bobs , Other than New Alexandria and Exodus which have Bobshee's.

I still think there is something to be found in the new map packs. It may not necessarily be new armor but I definitly think it will be something cool.


Like a message written on the walls or something?

I am not sure. Look at my earlier post; the one with the link to the Frank O'Connor interview.

I might be something like this. Crashed Pelican Audio
In Highlands there is a downed Pelican. There is some scambled audio coming from the cockpit. Can someone play it backwards to see if there are any hidden messages?

Okay, this is the third time I have posted this. Can someone please answer me?

Could just be the same audio stuff as the black radios on each maps, just in the pelican this time.

It very well could be. I was just curious to see if it said anything if played backwards. I would do it myself I just don't know how.

It sounds like we should totally forget about the BOBshees and the whole killing them on legendary idea. It seems logical that we would receive something from getting a registered bungie.net BOB medal on each mission. The legendary idea sounds like something to try if we get to that point and nothing happens, and as for the BOBshees, if they don't give us the medal then who cares about them?

  • 04.24.2011 3:56 PM PDT

Something Witty.

Jumping in late here. I had heard about the BOB/Helmet/Mystery thing before but didn't do to much reading about it 'till today, but now I'm hooked. Forgive me if any of my thoughts have been previously answered or debunked.

Has anyone tried following the Bobshee on NA? Could it be possible the, 1- It lands and the Bob gets out, or 2- its leads you somewhere?

  • 04.24.2011 4:44 PM PDT

Im' a ninja

maybe in new alexandria and exodus the bobs are wannabe brutes lol... hidden somewhere :)

  • 04.24.2011 4:47 PM PDT

Im' a ninja

or maybe in exodus its in a tank and maybe in new alexandra its in a phantom after playing 2 hours?? lol just ideas that came natural :)

  • 04.24.2011 4:48 PM PDT

Can you EMP the BOBshees then skyjack them? I've never tried that before, maybe you can skyjack then splatter them in mid-air?
Also this theory sounds good.

For like the 20th -blam!- time.... NO!

  • 04.24.2011 5:34 PM PDT

im gonna try the pelican EE later, and fly around seeing if i can find a BOB. and on exodus, maybe after activating the two AA turrets, and before turning them on (the end of the mission) go back to where you first landed and see if anything is there...? (just a theory)

For Following the NA one , Its leads out the map.
When i got him i blasted him out the sky from quite a long way away simply because he ran across the barrier got him anyway though.

So no he just leaves the map.

  • 04.24.2011 7:30 PM PDT

I read in halo wiki that there are 3 spawn places for the bob in new alexandria:
During the first five minutes there will be one in the entrance of club herrera.
The one in the banshee flying at low altitute.
One will spawn during the secundary mission when you are asked to help some allies in a random building.
I tried the one on club errera but i didnt find it, but someone try it and see if u have more luck than me.

I followed him yesterday, he spawns near Club Errera, then he flies around in an arc and exits the map by flying through the invisible barrier near the hoop building, he then seems to despawn some distance away.

  • 04.25.2011 2:09 AM PDT

hm, i found a BOB in the conrol room in the corvette when i played LNOS LASO, managed to kill him, but you say theres one at the beach too?

  • 04.25.2011 2:14 AM PDT

From the very pixelated picture on Pfhorpedia, it seems the Ranger Elites are similar in looks to the "Vacuum BOBs" from Durundal.

Man, there are so many coincidences to be drawn here, I applaud the OP and everyone else involved for making this idea somewhat of a reality.

I also think its no coincidence that Durundal is made available on XBL where the other Marathon games aren't. I'd like to think this is almost inviting us to do some research, visit the game, check out the original BOBs and make the comparison.

(I realised Marathon was only available on Mac and could be likely why Durundal was released on XBL as it was released on Win95 too, but the research thing still stands in my opinion).

OP, did you get through on Legendary yet?
