Thread saved, this is an excellent collection of BoB info, very well organized and put together making it nice and concise. :)

Thanks, Lord Friendship.

I've certainly been remotivated to atleast kill them all once.

Just so everyone knows, I've decided to consolidate this thread into a single location. I will update this thread when part 5 is posted, but after that, it will no longer be maintained. For further BOB Video Guide updates, please refer to the thread on Halo Waypoint:

The Official Waypoint Thread for Lord Friendship's BOB Video Guide

I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. I'm doing this to maintain consistency, reduce the amount of time I have to spend updating stuff, and concentrate discussion in a single location.

Again, this will be effective as of the posting of part 5 of the video guide. Thank you.

That's a good question. The mission designers for Reach seem to have been given relatively free reign in terms of many things, including BOBs. Thus, there are some differences from level to level, as each designer put their unique spin on the concept.

Keep in mind that the number designations are only my vain attempt at thoroughly indexing the BOBs; it's entirely possible that you only need to kill one BOB at each spawn point on ONI, or that you only need to kill a specific armor configuration (say, Ranger) in order to "get" whatever mystery the BOBs hold. Time will tell.
