Doskir Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 iron has the added effect of making you restart the level from the beginning and not the checkpoint EDIT: i found the thunderstorm skull its on the mission with the 3 towers. after you shut down tower 1 and get access to the hornet fly to tower 2 (the one the arbiter shut down) while walking up the stairs go to the middle part that connects both there should be a stair leading up to a platform up there is the skull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pants Party Posted September 22, 2007 Author Share Posted September 22, 2007 What is the mission called for Thunderstorm? Oh, and what is the effect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcidAngel Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 its The Covenant mission, in halo 2 it upgraded the enemies to their stronger variants, it seemed to do the same when I tried it earlier in h3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JVinz Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Yep, just got Thunderstorm. It says, "Field promotions for everyone!" It's on the Covenant mission. The skulls appear to be in level order. The way things are going it looks like: Catch will be on "The Storm" Fog will be on "Floodgate" Famine will be on "The Ark" Tilt will be on "Cortana" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grantlionheart Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Im trying to guess what these skull are gonna do... heres my guesses. Fog, Makes your hud hard to see through Famine, Ummmmmmm maybe all enemies start on there damaged versions xD or maybe theres no health pickups. (the regenerator) Tilt, Hell maybe your screen is tilted 90 degrees xD Also yeah that feild promotion skull is kinda lame, It makes all the enemys look the same and thats no fun.

Doskir Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Tough Luck seems to make your enemies avoid rockets and grenades way more often (fits with the description) and it feels like it spawns way more suicide grunts (not 100% sure about that tough) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halobender Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Okay I have scoured my videos for all levels and can not find any more skulls than what have been posted here yet so far. I will keep looking but perhaps we should concentrate efforts on certain levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halobender Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Okay I found another skull add this one to the extra skull list. Name: Grunt Birthday Party Effect: When you kill a grunt it explodes into confetti and children yell "yay!" - sounds like the sound clip from Viva Pinata when a pinata is destroyed. Difficulty: Normal - Legendary Level: Crow's Nest Location: Advance through the level until you enter the part of the level where you have to help the marines in the barracks. The first area is the door after armming the bomb where you walk back up to the top of the stairs where the shotty is. You will go through 2 doors before being contronted by umpteen brutes including one with a gravity hammer. Destroy all of these brutes and procede through the door at the top of the walkway. Drop down the hole at the end of the corridoor where you will come to a tunnel filled with ducts that drones fly out of. Kill all drones and proceed to the end of the tunnel. Instead of falling dirrectly to the platform below walk to the edge of the tunnel slowly and you will notice a green arrow on a ledge below you, slowly walk backwards over the ledge until you fall. Once you begin falling immediately press forward in order to land on the platform, walk to the back of the new tunnel where you will find the skull. Claim your prize.

Grantlionheart Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Confirmed. Better description would be. Play through the level normally, The second time cortana interupts you saying *You Have been called upon to serve* you are in the right place, So walk to the end of this path but dont jump off the end, Instead look down and you can see a green arrow, try land on that ledge then turn around to see the skull. Hint If you save the Grav Lift from before if you miss your landing you can deploy it at the bottom to jump up This might be a better option for those who dont have very good co-ordination.

steve36ty Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Lucky me, I got an Argos UK 'oops we mixed up our Wednesdays' copy I have taken pics of the following skull locations Iron: Black Eye: Tough Luck: Blind: (non achievement) Each photo was taken from long, medium & close-up range for easy locating More will be taken over the weekend (hopefully) All pics will be posted on Wed 26 Sep to give you all a fair start happy hunting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grinning_donkey Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 if you check the halo 3 service record on bungie.net when you turn a skull on you'll see its effects. "Mythic" doesn't actually give a 3x score multiplier. it actually doubles enemies health and only gives a 2x multiplier. gonna see what some of the others do...

A Grenade Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 I saw these on bungie.net Skull: Fog Effect: You do not have a motion sensor.

Location: Unknown proof: http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsCampaignHalo3.aspx?gameid=12389&player=TJ%20Scoot Skull: Catch Description: Enemies are grenade happy.

madhead360 Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 my vid... yay!!! im s1ick nick btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grantlionheart Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 I know theres a video there but im gonna post descriptions for text as well. The storm: When you get to the first ghosts grab one open the door and straight ahead you will see a Circle shaped structure on the top of that is the skull, I got my brother to go on multiplayer and boost me up to it. The Ark: Play through the level as normal and once you pass the exploded phantom hang a right after the drop, drive over to the rocky wall infront of the third pillar, Jump up the rock face and jump onto the stucture using the right side, Walk to last pillar (closest to where you enterd the area, and look at it you should see the skull, To get it you might need help from another player, stand on there head chuck a normal grenade right down and then jump towards the skull, You will probably miss this jump about 5 times but you will eventually get it. Cortana: Hard to explain where the place is let alone how to get up, i recomend watching the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grantlionheart Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Yeah i found a few awsome spots to hide it but came up empty i have no idea where it could be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TartanSpartan17 Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 For the catch skull on storm you have to make sure you dont destroy both of the wraiths. First few times i tried to get the skull i killed everything in the area then jump up onto the structure and it wasnt there. Gutted, so on my next attempt i used my scope to see if it was there and it was but again i killed both the wraiths and it dissapeared. so the next time i only killed one wraith and jump on the structure and got it. Pan in the ass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurrirus Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Yeah i found a few awsome spots to hide it but came up empty i have no idea where it could be. Try playing on Heroic instead of Hormal. When I searched for Catch skull on the Storm while playing on Normal, it wasn't on the place where it should be, but on Heroic i found it easily.

Grantlionheart Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Wait so when you destroy the second wraith it disapears? When i did it i just destroyed the first wraith and all the ghosts then got my bro to boost me up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
