I don't think Bungie knows anything about it, it's all 343 apparently.

No they wont as it's no on the disc, nor is the LE as well.

@johnbgamer:

WC: 7 spaw points:
- 3, one on the storage, one on the main building, one on the datapad building. (This for the only location where you cant find 3 charlie)
- 2 & 2 on the other settlements

NA: 4 spawn points (maybe 5)
- NEXT to Nomolos tower and heading to the sea
- IN FRONT OF Nomolos tower and heading to the glassed area
- NEXT to the hospital and heading to the sea
- IN FRONT OF (and very far) from the hospital and heading to the glassed are.
-The fifth... well i never got it to spawn, but my friend Jinx posted this vid at youtube: Check the first one...

Package: The last time that we got a Golden Oportunity challenge, it was confirmed that this banshee BOB is not a... BOB, its just a regular banshee. Also, if i can, i can get you a cell vid of me destroying this Banshee and still getting the walking BOB... We are supposed to only get one BOB per mission, and anyways, the guy that killed that banshee for the challenge didnt get it, but apparently he got it by killing the banshee BOBs in Exodus and NA.

BTW, my list of BOBs is on halopedia, check it out if you want.

2. You cannot skyjack a banshee that is boosting, and the BOB banshees are ALWAYS boosting.
assuming you can't emp them with plasma pistol or you'd have tried it?

Correct, EMPing them I believe drops them out of the sky, but doesn't make them any more boardable.

I know you don't get a medal for killing the BOB in a Banshee but what if you were to Sky-jack his Banshee?


Sounds impossible but Yeah, Skyjack him and make him land on a surface? then kill him?



Or just fall to his death


If the blowing up of the banshee dosnt justify the medal, then im not 100% sure the fall would either. Its a tough one to wrap around my head, but maybe theres got to be something more specific...



What if you shoot it down with a plasma pistol so he lands on a roof or platform then highjack him to get him out then kill him.

They are driver-less.

And you cannot get them on the rooftop as they dont give a -blam!- about following you.

  • 08.13.2011 2:26 PM PDT

Kira is right, also they fly very low, so rooftops are hundreds of meters above.

  • 08.13.2011 2:30 PM PDT

Don't know if this guy has been found yet, but there's a BOB on Nightfall on normal mode, he spawns in at the town center where the civilians are hold up. you have about 15secs to snipe his head off. He's really easy to get if you need the challenge.

yeah i have been reading this thread for awhile and that is what everyone is saying, but there has to be one banshee that has an enemy in it.I know bungie dosn't put enemies in banshees too much so maybe you have to find one with an enemy inside and kill it to get the medal, that alone would be hard.

  • 08.14.2011 11:13 AM PDT

Not sure if this has been mentioned or not... a lot of pages here. But what if killing the banshee bobs is like a switch to activate physical ones some where else in the level. I mean bungie likes switches and all.

Wow, that really is interesting. Good point bro.
Not Banshee Bobs but also Bobs themselves?

105th Division Website
150th Division Bungie page
We're droppin into hell troopers! Time to grow a pair!

someone on the first page mantioned flipping switches in reference to the marathon thing, which got me to thinkin, what if on the banshee bob levels, a switch has to be flipped and that triggers a "walking" bob somewhere on the level, and it vanishes shortly after which is why no one's found it. as with a couple of the Halo 3 vidmasters requiring 4 players, what if one player has to flip a switch and one of the others has to find and kill the "walking" BOB. Maybe the switch is on a different mission or something. Just a thought.

The legendary ending does exist. It's apparently really hard to activate though.

Actually the Legendary Ending does not exist.

THIS IS A THEORY SO DON'T YELL AT ME ABOUT IT. The BOB helmet could very likely be on the disk. The blue helmet has to be on the disk but no modder could unlock it. If its in the armory its on the disk. No such thing as DLC armor other than preorder/Get on day 1/Limited-Legendary editions armor. Maybe the reason why no one has found the helmet on the disk is because the helmets file could be separated into parts, stored in the campaign folders and BOB folders instead of armory. This would make the helmet hard to find and impossible to MOD in. Maybe it isn't a separate helmet but something else as no one has ever seen the thing in the armory.

The armor itself could be similar to recon in that it unlocks from bungie.net after completing something specific I stick to the vidmaster of old I will hunt every single BOB I will hit every switch (I believe the data pads to be the switches)I will use grenades when ever I can and I will do it all on legendary.


a
Halo 3 Recon Versus BOB helmet

Recon - was always on the disk from day 1
BOB helmet - only ona picture and video, NOT on disk.

I think that whether this has any credibility can be confirmed by the question of Elite Officer Armor/Recon UA+HUL3/Flaming head effect. Those are technically armor DLCs or something of the like. Are those on-disk? Can you tell me that? Unless you can tell me specifically and 100% accurately that they are, your claims don't really have any more credibility than you think those of this thread have.

EDIT: Whoops forgot the quote. This is kind of out of context without it LOL.


do not mistake Dick Locked Content with DownLoadable Content.
THe onyl thing to code you got with the legendary edition did was give you access to the item in question. Its on the disk.

Same as with the Bungie blue flame.

Anyways, if the OP beleives killing every BOB will unlock some special ending/armor or whatnot.. please, do go ahead and enjoy yourselves. But dont keep you hopes high.


IDK about that as think about it why does the legendary flame limited elite armor show up in download history as if they were secretly in the marketplace like that halo reach file that people moded into. As proof of this I have all the rewards excluding blue and legendary flames on a thumb drive with the game and sometimes they glitch and I have to redownload them just like the DLC maps sometimes do. Therefore, the rewards are'nt on the disk. The blue flame probably is a code however as I don't think it is in the download history.

For Exodus, have you tried pummeling the Wraith drivers? The Elites usually drive those. Maybe there are switches or a way to hijack the banshees so we can get to the section with he wraiths. Maybe if you wait, the Pelican will arrive. Then, you hop on the pelican and drop down to the islands or the rooftops. Or maybe you could EMP one of the Falcons or even the Banshees towards the beginning of the level.

Edit: For EMPing

Falcon when you are at the end of the level or the near-end.

Banshees when they fly overhead where you get the jetpack.

Another tip to find out for sure you could jump on to of the wraith move around and after a little time you can actually hop into the turret while an enemy is still driving. He will literally climb out of the wraith and if he's a BOB, elite, or brute, definally reply to this. Maybe that could be the entire reason why this glitch is there. Maybe Bungie the geniouses that they are put the glitch in on purpose as an extra secret way to kill a BOB on exodus that walks. Thank gamekid1100 for this trick. But I got the idea of using the glitch for this reason.

No, you're wrong.

The only thing you see in your download history is the permission token to have access to locked files on the reach disc.
