'''Ranger''' is an [[achievement]] in ''[[Halo 3]]'' and ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]''. It is unlocked by beating the par score on the level [[The Ark (level)|The Ark]]. The achievement is worth 10 [[Gamerscore]]. It is represented by a blue circle with a target in it, also known as the "Bullseye" emblem, in the original game and a screenshot of [[Guardian (map)|Guardian]] in the collection.
'''Ranger''' is a ''[[Halo 3]]'' [[meta-game|Meta-Game]] [[Achievement]]. It is unlocked when the player earns 50,000 points while playing the [[meta-game]] on [[The Ark (level)|The Ark]]. This Achievement awards the player 10 [[Gamerpoints]].


The par score for The Ark is 50,000 points in ''Halo 3'' and 25,000 points in ''The Master Chief Collection''; the difference is due to the fact that the two games feature different [[campaign scoring]] formulae. Though the achievement can theoretically be unlocked on any difficulty, more points are awarded in campaign scoring when playing on higher difficulties.
It is represented by a blue circle with a target in it, also known as the "Bullseye" emblem. It is probably called Ranger because the first section of the level focuses on sniping; a ranger acts as a scout of a larger military unit, often armed with mid-to-long range weapons, such as a sniper rifle, to benefit his or her role. The name of the achievement could also be derived from the fact that the Master Chief and the Marines are sent into their mission through the atmosphere. This would make them Rangers. Or, since The Ark is one of the longest levels in the game, the name could also refer to the long distances the player has to traverse.


In the original game, players must achieve the par score individually, even when playing [[Cooperative play|cooperatively]]; in ''The Master Chief Collection'' cooperative players share a single score, potentially making the achievement much easier.

#In ''The Master Chief Collection'' players can earn significant points by destroying unoccupied Covenant vehicles as the game does not differentiate between piloted and empty vehicles; ''Halo 3'' is the only game in the collection with this campaign scoring quirk.
