Halo 3 Hints

-Grunt Birthday Party skull
Effect: Headshots cause enemies to explode.

Where to find: Crow's Nest

How to find: Right after the first objective, while en route to the barracks, you will fall down onto a pipe. At the end of this pipe, look over the edge to see a small space a few feet below you. You must simply drop over and as quicly as you can, pull back to land under the floor you were just on. After that, the skull will be at the end.

-Black-Eye Skull
Effect: Melee hits instantly recharges your shield.

Where to find: Crow's Nest

How to find: As soon as you start the level, head straight up to the higher level. Head toward the door with the red light, then turn around. Jump onto the racks, onto the red metal light holders, then onto the ventilation tube. The skull will spawn at the end.

-Blind Skull
Description: "Shoot from the hip"

Stage: First Stage

How To Find: When you get to the area where you see the Phantom overhead (one of the marines will point it out) jump over the rocks and keep following the path on the right. When you get to the cliff there will be a rock over of the side. The skull is on the end of the rock.

Note: This skull has to be Activated before you start a Campaign map.

-Iron Skull
Effect: When either player dies in Co-Op on any difficulty both players will restart at last check point.

Where to Find: Spartan 117

How to find: In the area where you rescue Sarge, behind the prison cell is a large ledge. Got to the far right side and jump on the boxes, then onto the pipes to get up on the ledge, goto the far end of the ledge, turning two corners the skull is at the far end.

-Tough Luck Skull
Effect: Enemies do saving throws

Where to find: Tsavo Highway

On Tsavo Highway, about halfway through the mission (right after you are forced to walk through a large blue barrier), you will come out of a tunnel on the highway, and see a large pipeline on your left. Drop down in between the two, and run to the wall in front of you. Follow the wall all the way to where it connects with the cliff on your right, and turn to the left. There should be a few ledges--simply crouch jump from ledge to ledge, and the last one should have the "Tough Luck" skull on it.

-Mythic Skull
Effect: Every enemy on the field now has double their normal amount of health.

Where to find: Halo

How to find: As soon as the mission starts walk up the hill in front of you and into the cave. Hug the right side of the cave and after a large boulder you will see a path on your right, just take the short path and it will be at the end.

-Cowbell Skull
Effect: Explosive force increased (sputnik from H2)

Level: The Ark

Location: First pick up a grav lift from the small building near where you fight the scarab. Now proceed through the level until you reach the second sloping hallway (stairway), you should see some partitioned risers (platforms) halfway down. The skull is on the top level. Toss the grav-lift on the right side of the hall so it lands on the fourth little green dot from the door. Then run, jump, and use the grav-lift to propel you to the top. You should reach a ckeckpoint just as you enter the room so it you miss just try again.

-Thunderstorm Skull
Mission: The Covenant

Effect: "Field promotions for everyone!" -- Upgrades enemies to their stronger versions.

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 and there should be a stair leading up to a platform where the skull is.

-The 7 Terminals
The Ark:

1. Start the mission and once you enter the first building take a left into another door and now you should be in a curved corridor. On the inside is a Terminal.
2. After activating the bridge to let your comrades accross the gap, do a 180 and you should see it. (it does not open until you activate the bridge)
3. In the third building after defeating the scarab, kill the group of sleeping covenant, then follow the corridor downwards. Once you reach a door in front that is locked, immediately on the left there's an open door. Go through and walk straight off, then do a 180 to find a secret room. It is in there.

The Covenant:

1. When in the first tower standing on the lift, face the access panel and turn left. Jump over and it's right there.
2. Land your hornet on the second tower, walk towards the entrance but when you see the locked door, do a 180. Should be right in front of you.
3. When in the third tower standing on the lift, face the access panel and turn right. Jump over and it's right there.

Halo:

1. After reaching the end of the first cave, hug the right wall and you will see a building. Jump up onto the walkway and hang a left once inside. It's right there.

-Catch Skull
Mission: The Storm

Effect: "Pull pin. Count to three. Throw." -- Every NPC carries two grenades and throws them often.

You can get this by performing a grenade jump off a warthog, or grab a ghost and go back to the ramp from which you first came out, using the ghost to push a big square crate back over to the front of the silo pod that the skull is on top of, then use the box as a place to jump from.

-Fog Skull
Mission: Floodgate

Effect: "You’ll miss those eyes in the back of your head." -- Your motion sensor disappears.

As you are walking down from the anti-air gun you destroyed in the previous mission, you encounter a ramp (next to a missile launcher). Around this ramp, you hit a checkpoint. At this point, you should also hear a marine yelling, “There! Over There!”. Look up and to the right, directly at the roof of the building next to the missle launcher. There is a single flood form (not to be mistaken with the two other flood forms jumping in front of you) which is holding the skull. Kill him before he jumps, and he will drop the skull down to the ground where you can retrieve it. Too early, and the skull will get stuck on the roof though, so just time it carefully.

-Famine Skull
Mission: The Ark

Effect: "Trust us. Bring a magazine." -- Dropped weapons will have very little ammo compared to normal.

When you first go into the valley to the right after the wrecked phantom, look to your left where you will see a huge boulder. Use a ghost and get to the side of the boulder that is closest to the bridge overhead. It is easy to pilot the ghost up the side of the wall using the thrust. To get the skull, pilot 2 ghosts up the wall to the top of the bridge and stack them one on top of another next to the beam where the skull is placed. Simply jump from the top of the ghosts towards the skull and land on the beam.

-Tilt Skull
Mission: Cortana

Effect: "What was once resistant is now immunity" -- Enemies have different body parts that may be resistance to certain bullet types

When in the circular type room with all the flood look for a small structure piece next to two archways, jump on top if it and up on the rocks to the top left, turn left and jump up again, then do a 180 and jump to the rocks across from you. After that follow the the rock sticking out and leading up on top of of the original circular room, the skull will be in a pile of blood.

When fighting the flood, if you carefully shoot their arms off without killing them, they will follow you around harmlessly without killing you. Its kinda like having a pet flood. USE THEM AS DECOYS :D

5. Killing Spree.
10. Killing Frenzy.
15. Running Riot.
20. Rampage.
25. Untoucable.
30. Invinsible.

Right, in the first level after thepart with all the brutes when you can first get grenades in the woods the enemies in the trees have beam rifles (alien sniper rifle)

or after that you can get a human one at johnsons crashed pelican

After final cut scene, wait for the credits to finish to watch yet another cut scene. If you are playing on Legendary difficulty, there is yet another (but small) cut scene after the one after the credits. (Two total after the credits if on Legendary difficulty).

In forge go to sandtrap were there are elaphant (2) turn to the moniter and buy a tank and try pushing it not to close.Once you flip it there will be a note on the upper side of the screen.

Put as many plasma batterys and fusion coils in a elphant as possible go to one fusion coil and plasma battery and press x 2 times and turn the run time minamum to 16 and 8 and set them off and the elapahnt will fly

Hold LB + RB+ LT+ A+DOWN during local match or replay

If you complete a level by punching every single guy dead, no shooting, just punching, then the next level a grunt will be on your team. He is invincible and is named the cookie monster. I have tried this many times and IT ONLY WORKS IF YOU KILL EVERY SINGLE GUY BY MELEE.

The Thunderstorm Skull can be found on the level, The Covenant, after you take command of one of the Hornet vehicles. Fly towards the second force field generator (the one the Arbiter disabled), and land. The skull is waiting at the very top, at the end of the ramp extending over the sea.

There will be a dead marine that has a teddy bear in his hand on the first level(Siera117).It is near the checkpoint called Charlie Foxtrot.Also I did this on legendary mode so I think its only on Legendary mode.

Goto lvl covenet and fight thru the scrabs then when they r gone there the edge its hard to get to but easy when u get the hang of it go up the side is tan (note have to have a ride) fall off and you will see a steep hill go up it and jump off and it should keep u in the air if u want to fly stay in the car and then get out it might fall but stay there and have fun(the only way to get out is to die ro start from save

On the level sandtrap go yo the building connected by a bridge, (the one with the gravity hammer on it) from ther got othe side where there are ledges go to the one nearest to the gravity hammer zoom in and you can see in the corner of the floor your opponents screen

On the level sand trap there is the air lift. across from the lift is the building with the graviy hammer. go down to the edge and look for a standing point Where you can stand ( the first one) and then with the sniper zoom in twice. you can see ONE screen only.

This Skull is located in the beginning of the second level Crows Nest, the very room you start in. Hanging down from the ceiling is some piping. On top of this piping, on the side nearest to the large display (the one that Hood appears on) lies the Black Eye Skull.

You can gain access to the pipes a few different ways.

The Fog Skull is found on the level Floodgate, at the very beginning of the level. As you are walking down from the anti-air gun you destroyed in the previous mission, you encounter a ramp (next to a missile launcher). Around this ramp, you hit a checkpoint. At this point, you should also hear a marine yelling, There! Over There!.

You have a small window of opportunity at this point, but it is fairly easy to get the Fog Skull. Look up, and to the right, directly at the roof of the building next to the missle launcher. There is a single flood form (not to be mistaken with the two other flood forms jumping in front of you) which is holding the skull. Kill him before he jumps, and he will drop the skull down to the ground where you can retrieve it. Too early, and the skull will get stuck on the roof though, so just time it carefully.

Don't you hate when people rocket you when your using the Grav Hammer You can reflect the rocket or a grenade. Use the gravity hammer right before a rocket or a grenade is about to hit you. And there you go.

First create a ghost,warthog,wraith, or scorpion

fly real high and drop 1 of the 4 things and drop it and just be4 it hits u turn human
and let the ghost,warthog,wraith, or scorpion fall on u u may die

NOTE:u may fly 2 hi and when u drop it it will go poof but just make another 1 and
umay not get hit by the ghost

IWHBYD Skull
Go to the last tower. Before you get to the Prophet of Truth, there are a series of bridges with Halos. Do not jump through any yet. First, kill the Prophet and clear the bridges of enemies. Then jump through the Halos in this order, with "1" being the entrance and "7" being the end near where the Prophet was located: 4, 6, 5, 4, 5, 3, 4. Note: You can also use the longer sequence of 4, 5, 6, 5, 7, 6, 5, 4, 1, 2, 3, 2, 7, 2, 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 5, 4, 5, 3, 4. This is much easier in Co-op mode with three or four people. If done properly, the Halos will start flashing. If the Halos do not flash, revert to your last saved game. The skull is near the Prophet's ramp. Its description reads "But a dog beat him over the fence." This skull unlocks hidden dialogue when activated. If this is the thirteenth skull you have located, it will also unlock the Hayabusa Head.

First go 2 forge.(u need at leest 2 ppl 4 this) spawn or find mongoose. have 1 person drive and 1 person ride. driver gets of and enters forge mode.

Your Welcome!

The Tilt Skull is found on the level Cortana, in the circular room where Cortana mentions that she Likes to play games too.

Its a bit difficult to get to, as it requires getting on top of the ceiling of the room. Upon entering the room, head towards the left side where you will see some mushroom shaped extrusions along the wall. Get on top of these, and then look up and towards the right for another set of extrusions. Jump to these. From here, you should be able to jump on top of the ceiling of the room, where the Tilt Skull lies in the center.
