The Game1415 is right, did hackers ever find out about the pelican easter egg when Reach first came out? No. So it is possible that this mystery exists.


They did find it within an hour of being told there was something to find, what do you think we've been doing for weeks?

I like your theory. It's possible the two Banshee BOBs aren't the correct BOBs to kill in that level.

Or maybe...it has something to with the Pelican and phantom easter egg? Maybe someone has to hijack the banshee and then kill the BOB while it's falling.


No. This has been suggested before, they cannot be hijacked.

I'm telling you that Mark 7 appearence in Halsey's journal has something to do with this.


That is so completely irrevelant it's amazing. The armor in Reach isn't even Mark 6 let alone 7.

There is a BOB that spawns for the Legendary difficulty in every campaign mission.

On Youtube and on Google you can find a video for every BOB on every mission.

After about 30+ Exodus searches on multiple accounts, no BOB walks around the mission.

Why are there no "Walkable" BOBS on these two missions? It's simple. There are no Elites on these missions period. It's all Brutes. The BOBS do infact fly on these two missions.

We as a community have to start killing more BOBS! Kill one BOB, per mission, on Legendary difficulty. Legendary is where he is the hardest to kill, especially on Lone Wolf. I keep trying, but I cannot kill BOB (Legendary) on Lone Wolf. He spawns 36 kills in, and there are too many Elites. We need to get together as a community and kill these BOBS!


Actually, there are a lot of Elites on NA. Exodus is the only level in the whole game without any.

I know, but Kiras constant trolling annoys me. He asks me where I pulled comments 1-2 from, but yet where I pulled them from or where I got the ideas from is stated right in points 1-2, from Halo: 3. What is so hard to understand about that?


The fact that any link between this and the Halo 3 skulls in complete conjuncture.

I typed a long response to Kira, and then hit backspace and deleted it all while in the dark. Oh well.

Kira, stop posting in here. Just like in real life you aren't wanted, and you are greatly hated. You constantly say the same things and you never make any sense.

97% of the people in here back my team up and what we do, you are in the 3%. You simply don't matter. :)


Please keep it clean and lay off Kira for once.

The Bob on New Alexandria has been found FYI, hes flying a banshee, fast and low.


We know, we don't count him because he doesn't give the medal when killed.

Yes the banshee bob is a real bob, i got the `kill BOB challenge`` by killing him. Nice theory btw. Great to see something else than hate on the forum.

Yes but, he doesn't give the medal, (or an elite light vehicle kill in post game carnage) that is why we don't usually count him.

Subject: The "BOB" Helmet Theories (Bungie, give us a hint please!)

-It's been an honor serving sir.

I haven't played Reach in quite a while, but all this about the BOBs, the new armor and a possible alternate ending has given me a thirst to go back. If you may, I would love to join your search team.

Edit: I just saw Tyrant's Tips and Tricks video and one of the clips was during New Alexandria and the guy was able to hijack a Banshee but there was no Covenant in it? Could it have been a BOBshee?

Hey, I did one BOB per mission on Legendary, I just have trouble killing the Lone Wolf BOB. If anybody is willing to help me, send me a message via Xbox Live. My Gamertag is LC o MagiikZ

As I lay in bed, staring at the stars I thought: "Where the hell is the ceiling"

I'm going to give you credit.

Sir, this is the ONLY theory on Bungie.net that has actually stood out for me. No other theory is backed up properly, and it usually doesn't make sense.

And there's something in your OP that actually makes me KNOW you're right. The comparison to the Marathon B.O.B Helmet.

I think you've got it right there.

I don't think so, most of the banshees in New Alexandria have no pilots.

  • 04.30.2011 4:34 AM PDT

my friend had a concussion rifle and jumped on the bob banshee and started firing at it, it swerved and hit the building killing the banshee but the banshee plummeted to earth safe

ps: he did get tthe medal but only realise the great thing he did after i told him by then the vid was out of his recent stuff

I think it does do something, and you might be on to this whole helmet thing (honestly if there was any hidden helmet to find, I was kind of hoping that it would be Hyabusa), or it could unlock an alternate ending (I was disappointed when I finally beat the campaign on legendary and found out that there was no special ending for my troubles) or it could unlock some hidden level or some huge Easter egg that's so awesome, Bungie wants us to really work for it.

If interested, contact me.

I have a strange feeling that the BOB's represent the Halo 3 skulls. I would like to help find them all. Once I get back from work I shall try the Lone wolf BOB again...

And the the meesage from Marathon about the vidmaster. It says something about hitting all switches. Maybe you have to do a run through on campiagn hitting EVERY switch. (Banshee swtitch on The package, the 3 switches on New Alexandria and also the Reach Racer switches).

Also just a guess, The New Alexandria BOB you dont get a medal for...Have you checked ALL the building roof tops or secret rooms??

If anyone wants to hut them and also find NEW easter eggs, hit me up on xbl - IcanHazSausage

Im on ALL the time...Apart from today. Will be on in 8 hours!! :D

There are no Banshee with a pilot...Its stupid. Halo 2 was awesome because when you killed a Banshee, you could the the pilot fall out of it.

Um what makes you say that? There are only two "silver" BoBs.

REGARDING BOB HUNTS:

I want to take a squad of four people to kill every single one of the things on legendary (BoBshees included). I need three people who can be on often and for extended periods of time, I will be sending out invites for people to join this team shortly. Anyone who wishes to join send me a pm or reply on this thread.

I would have been interested but the time zone makes it kinda hard for staying long stretches of time all together. But I'll consider it.

There are currently 2 switches on New Alexandria that have been found, have been pushed, but apparently do nothing. These could have something to do with it.

And if there is a BoB on Exodus, he's outside the map. I've explored every Inch of Exodus, so maybe it has something to do with the door that disappears halfway through the mission?

If one of those switches in a covenant jammer switch on a building near Sinoviet, then that's a glitch and not meant to do anything.

No, I'm sure that's not the one..
