BTW, nice image name. "kira is a spaz", couldn't come up with something a bit more original?


Glad you noticed.


We're very grateful for your contribution, now we know to stop looking at the BoBs, thank you.

That being said, I think me and Kira are going to have our work cut out stopping the bandwagon.

Sage is amazing.


His holy beard has brought us through the dark times and prevailed to bring us the best Halo experience.

Well, it had a good run while it lasted:

This is the 2001st post on this thread!

Ya done well community, ya done well.


P.S. Maybe we should try skyjacking the Bobshees! :p

On a serious note though, just because the BOBs don't give us armor, it doesn't mean they don't have a purpose! Who knows what--if anything--the BOBs actually do. Maybe they are there just for the medal, maybe they still unlock something more... Only time will tell. Oh and more searching, that helps too.

I think we have to return to an interview with 343 employee Frank O'Connor. He seemed to hint at something in the Defiant Map Pack.

I don't think our search is over yet.

  • 06.10.2011 8:10 AM PDT

It's like we were running at full speed trying to find this thing and then BAM! right into a brick wall.. honestly this is a bummer, where do we search now? I personally think when Evil Otto said it's time to "Redirect your search elsewhere" he may have been hinting that while he may now know anything and nobody at Bungie knows anything about it that it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Or he's saying if you want to search for something, look at something else, this is a dead end.

Maybe, maybe not.
But what is certain is that it's not armor in any way.

  • 06.10.2011 8:14 AM PDT

It's not a dead end, it's called summer. You know, when people go outside, swim, have BBQs. People have slowed down with the searching, but it's not over quite yet.

The B.Net community is too fixated on dumb things like Armor Lock and Bloom to even care about searching. I've got an active group of hunters all over my friend list who look all the time. I just don't keep this topic active anymore because of the negativity from the same people from the beginning.

Kira, prove it's not armor in anyway. You can't prove it. There are no official statements from any higher-up saying there is no new armor. All we have are pictures of new armor on maps we all ready have. We have Bungie referring to the "Mystery Helmet" as BOB. We have more evidence toward this helmet being on the disk than we have against it.

Then good luck searching for....... something i guess.

We are searching for the Mystery Helmet that resembles the BOBs from the Bungie game Marathon. They look just alike and even Bungie has called this helmet BOB.

Haven't you been keeping up?

Along the way we are having fun searching for Easter Eggs (which we have found two unknown Easter Eggs that haven't even been found before) and looking for glitches. It's a good time.

Would help if you read your own thread

The "helmet" theory is a dead end, confirmed by a bungie employee.
Not quite certain how "more official" you can get unless you want Bungie's CEO.

EDIT:No, that is not my inbox, it belongs to MWLB4244, posted on the previous page.

Well, if armor isn't unlocked, that doesn't mean they don't do something else.

I will keep on searching and killing. Who knows what might happen. ;D

In any case.

The theory was that the bobs unlocked the helmet and it got busted witch is what i was standing by since day 1.

If they do unlock or do something else, plausible, but nothing so far.

  • 06.10.2011 8:54 AM PDT

It's kinda fun to do the impossible. :)

You may all call me a liar but when I played, there were TWO bobs that I killed. The Pillar of AUTUMN. One in that warehouse opening, Which I sniped. That is the previously known one. But there is a second. At the beginning when I first get the rockets, banshees are flying. Shoot down banshees. Bob has one. I went into camera mode later and watched him fly out of the explosion.

Could you throw a video on your file share if the game is still in your temp history?

I too have started doing that. As soon as you get to the rockets two Banshees boost in from the area you start at and another 4 show up coming from the Scarab's region. I've shot down all 6 of them in one game and later killed BOB, but I never went back to see if BOB fell out of any of them. Why is this relevent? We only have video/screenshot proof of only the 2 BOBs in this level (in Boneyard), where's the third?

I really would if I could but I don't have an xbox live profile nor can I get one because my parents do not want to pay the extra internet price because we live in semi-country.
And to your relevance question, supposedly get a helmet? The third is in one of the 6 banshees. To get proof you will have to go to theater.

Did I mention that both of those bobs were in the same mission on normal? When I looked at my afteraction, two light vehicle rangers (bobs) were listed KIA. That's when I went into theater and saw them.

No no, my relevance question was a set up for the remainder of my message...I tend to ask myself questions, the voices like it when I include them :)

Damn, too bad we can't get your screenshots/video. The default rule for the forums online is evidence, otherwsie be suspicious, lots of trolls out there as you probably know. But I plan on playing through again so I'll take a look myself.

Honestly, I don't blame you for being suspicious, I would be too without evidence. Also I wish you the best luck. Happy BOB hunting! :)

Like with the IWABYD skull on th package the odst will sometimes reference a missing drop pod and then you unlock banshees and go searching. Maybe they show up after a phrase has been said or your being in the right place at the right time...

Or you know the pelican easter egg on N.A maybe it is linked to the BOBs...

  • 06.10.2011 4:20 PM PDT

Maybe the BOBs have to be killed in a certain order like with the rings for the IWHBYD skull. Maybe play the missions in the order of the rings from H3 killing each bob on that mission. Hey, maybe something will happen.
