I Would Have Been Your Daddy, I cant get it to work. I jump through the rings, all in the order described, and nothing happens. Number 7 is the one closest to where truth was right? Does it matter wich way you go through the rings? Are we sure this is the right order? It wont light up, make any sounds, or nothing, and the skull doesnt show up at any bridge. Any ideas? Posting wrong?

Ok, so how do you get Hayabusa? 5 Skulls from anywhere or only in campaign?[[User talk:Mark IV|Mark IV]] 01:05, January 28, 2010 (UTC)Mark IV
I think you're discovering the same problem I had. You see, it's VERY important that you jump legible in all the rings. I didn't, I jumped a little too late, making my foot catch the hologram, and the skull never appeared. Jump a little bigger, and start the jump a little earlier than you used to.

*Only campaign skulls count as far as I know. Mythic Skulls won't work. --[[User talk:DKong|DKong]] 01:28, January 28, 2010 (UTC)


I tried the catch skull thing. It wasn't there. Is there a certain difficulty? I tried Normal, and it failed miserably. I think the hornet had something to do with it.--'''<span style="background:Black;display:inline-block;height:16px;padding-right:4px;line-height:1em;position:relative;top:-3px;-moz-border-radius:0 50% 50%">[[User:Shade Link|<font color="Blue">Shade</font>]]</span>''' 18:08, February 10, 2010 (UTC)

*Ok, the trick with the catch skull is that it spawns when the 2ND wraith (mortar one) appears, and disappears when that wraith recieves damage, is destroyed, the driver/gunner is killed, I am not sure which. You can use the AAwraith (if you know how to jack it) and "park-it" back against the silo to get the skull; you can park a ghost or two on top if need be.[[User talk:Stneojimmy|Stneojimmy]] 11:06, March 23, 2010 (UTC)
*Another thing about the catch skull inperticular, IT DOES NOT SPAWN IF YOU HAVE THE "EASY" CAMPAIGN SHEILD on your service record. Finish the game on Normal first, or play through on Normal or greater before playing it on easy.[[Special:Contributions/220.239.65.28|220.239.65.28]] 06:13, June 2, 2010 (UTC)


== Assassin Skull information ==
I removed the part about not being able to just quit after you grab it because that's a lie. You can quit as soon as you pick up the skull. I did it today.  [[User:Spartan657|Kage]] 05:39, 29 September 2007 (UTC)


I think the page has a bit of misleading information.  It says there is a fourteenth skull, the Assassin skull.  However, prior to reading this I did research on the discussions, and to my knowledge, the second blind skull that this article claims to be the Assassin Skull is in fact -not- the Assassin Skull.
Someone re-added it [[User:Spartan657|Kage]]


I took it out again, agreed that it's a lie. [[User:Mattemeo|Mattemeo]]


I changed the sequence of the Rings to a shorter one that i found on


According to my research, the second Blind Skull is a skull all by itself.  In the game code itself, there are fifteen skulls, including the second Blind Skull and the Assassin Skull.  However, in the game levels all together, there are only 14.  This is because the second Blind Skull is it's own skull that functions just like the first Blind Skull, and the Assassin's skull is supposidely a skull that was on a cut level from Halo 3.  When the level was removed, the skull itself stayed, but just wasn't shown because the level it was on no longer existed, and the skull no longer shows up on the skull menu.  However, it is still not the actual second Blind Skull.  The lock on the page prevents me from updating this.  I may be wrong, but I've seen evidence of the game's code itself, and I'd like this problem to be dealt with.


I admit the information about it is unclear on the current page. Register so you can edit. Personally I nickname the second skull from Cortana, the Charity Skull, because of location: High Charity, and its charitable nature, giving the player a Spartan Laser. -[[User:TheLostJedi|'''<span style="color:maroon">TheLostJedi</span>''']] 17:02, May 8, 2010 (UTC)

== Cowbell ==
i tested it myself and it works
[[User:ATwig|ATwig]] 02:16, 30 September 2007 (UTC)


For some reason, the article says that cowbell does not affect damage, but I am certain it does affect explosive damage, as both myself and ememies die a lot quicker from explosives (most notable with a brute shot, being the weakest explosive weapon), nor have I noticed any effect on melee attacks. I did't want to change it yet, becasue I'm not entierly sure. [[User talk:MoronicCinamun|MoronicCinamun]] 20:20, August 8, 2010 (UTC)
I found this website that has a video of someone doing the IWHBYD skull with a different sequence, and he got the skull correctly. LINKZ: [http://www.mycheats.com/view/section/2426/19936/halo_3/xbox_360][[User:Kap2310|Kap2310]] 01:04, 1 October 2007 (UTC)


Since the skull doesn't appear until the sequence is initiated, do you still have to do the whole level? [[User:Spartan 107|Spartan 107]] 01:36, 6 October 2007 (UTC)


Ugh, i did the short sequence before, though it took me 3 tries cuz i messed up.  The rings started flashing like they should, and the skull was there and whatnot.  I picked it up, swung it around a few times, then dropped it and quit the level.
It was never registered.  I never got the skull, apparently...
I'm Uber Pissed!  Can anyone tell me what happened?  It wouldnt have been so bad if i just had to do the sequence, but i have to do the WHOLE LEVEL AGAIN!!!

It does '''not''' effect damage, or else it would be a gold skull. [[User talk:Marslighthouse|Marslighthouse]] 20:24, August 8, 2010 (UTC)
I'm just curious.. How did someone figure out the seemingly random series of numbers?! [[User:December Wolf|December Wolf]]
 
Okay, I got the IWHBYD skull, messed around with it and quit. In the campaign lobby it didn't recognize that I got it so i did the whole level again, did the sequence perfectly, but..... it wouldn't appear again. Can anyone please help!!  [[user:Fork|<span style="color: #6262FF; font-family: Biting My Nails; font-size: 12pt;">'''Fork'''</span>]] <small><sup>[[user talk:Fork|<font color="#A9A9A9">TALK</font>]]</sup> • <sub>[http://{{SERVERNAME}}/index.php?title=User_talk:Fork&action=edit&section=new  <font color="A9A9A9">MESSAGE</font>]</sub></small>
 
== Odd skull in Sierra 117 ==
 
My little brother was playing a few moment ago when he found a skull from somwhere on the first level.
It seems like that the melee power is increased, Brute's personal shield is depleted with one hit with the skull
equipped.
 
I didn't see it on the list, so I decided to ask here
 
:I believe that all the skulls have increased melee power, so it's nothing special unfortunately.

== Do you... ==
 
Have to do the entire level... like start all the way from the very beginning to get the skull.. like for instance the Iron skull is at the end and I don't wanna go all the way there from the beginning.
 
:Well, you have to find SOME way of getting to the end, but you *should* be able to just start a new campaign for each skull you use regularly, do that level on Legendary, and save it at the checkpoint before the skull so you can just turn on your Xbox, go to that campaign, that level, that skull, then quit, switch players, and do whatever level you want without losing that checkpoint... or something. --<span style="font-weight: bold;" title="GPT does not work for Wikia">NOTASTAFF</span> <b>[[User:Guesty-Persony-Thingy|<font color="000000">GPT</font>]]<sub>([[User talk:Guesty-Persony-Thingy|<font color="000000">talk</font>]])</sub><sup>([[Special:Contributions/Guesty-Persony-Thingy|<font color="000000">eating</font>]])</sup></b> 21:55, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
 
::That didn't help at all. WTF are you talking about? I found all the skulls I was just wondering since the Iron skull isn't there because I started from the bravo point that I really have to start from the beginning in order to obtain it.
 
:::Okay, I was thinking like in Halo 2... apparently there's a skull menu, so you can disregard most of that message... but of course you need to start at the beginning of the level--there's no way of getting to the end without starting it, and the only place you can start is the beginning unless you got a checkpoint, but even then to get a checkpoint you would have to start at the beginning of the level. --<span style="font-weight: bold;" title="GPT does not work for Wikia">NOTASTAFF</span> <b>[[User:Guesty-Persony-Thingy|<font color="000000">GPT</font>]]<sub>([[User talk:Guesty-Persony-Thingy|<font color="000000">talk</font>]])</sub><sup>([[Special:Contributions/Guesty-Persony-Thingy|<font color="000000">eating</font>]])</sup></b> 01:58, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
 
::::When you complete a level, in the Campaign menu, you have the option of starting from an "insertion point" in some levels. In order to get the skulls, you need to start the level from the very beginning.

== Thunderstorm ==
 
Im having trouble with this one. Im looked at the Youtube video, Im playing it on normal, and its not there. Second tower, on the ledge. WTF? [[User:Kap2310|Kap2310]] 20:20, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
* OMG, never mind. A friend told me you cant start from rally points to get them. Someone really should put that in the description, so rtards like myself know this :P. [[User:Kap2310|Kap2310]] 20:29, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
: Done and done :)

I'm having trouble getting the iron skull, I know where it's at. I've done everything, started from the begining and etc. ....I can see the skull....but the game want let me pick it up? wtf is going on?
 
==Catch==
 
i cant get the catch skull to show up, its never there, ive tried killing everything, ive tryied not killing anything, ive tried killing my allies, ice tried everything that would be consider legal and its just not there, what is my problem?
 
:There's a couple things that could have gone wrong:
:One, make sure you're playing on either Normal, Heroic, or Legendary difficulty. The skulls will not appear on Easy.
:Secondly, make sure you play the level from the beginning — you cannot start mid-level.
:Also, for the Catch skull, make sure you ''don't'' kill all the Wraith tanks — the skull will disappear if you destroy them. And make sure you're on the right building — not the one closest to where you enter from, but the one beside it, farther off next to the Anti-Air Wraith.
:If you're still having problems, please reply :)
:[[User:Tyraak|Tyraak]] 05:40, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
 
::I'm not the same as OP, but I can assure you that many, MANY people have done exactly as the instructions you have provided prescribe but to no avail. It is most likely a bug to which no concrete solution has been found. I've heard that restarting the game and getting every skull from the beginning might do it, but I haven't tried myself.
 
== Blackeye ==
 
Why does it say that you must melee yourself? that has to be a typo, just confirming.  [[User:Spartan 107|Spartan 107]] 05:14, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
i tried everything but it does not work
 
== Some Games Gone Bad? ==
So it seems some people are having big problems with some of these skulls (Tough Luck, Thunderstorm, IWHBYD (which I, no lie, have to complete the level to obtain). No, It's no disc error, as stated. Me myself, I'm using Pal, and the TL skull isn't there wih one of my accounts. Doing exactly the same with a similar profile does make it appear. However, with THAT account, the Thunderstorm skull is gone. Glitch, or do someone have the time to tell me what the ---- is going on?

== Tilt Room ==
 
The description says that Cortana says "I like to play games too..." Does this mean the room where she says: "You like games? So do I..." 'couse that's the only thing I can make fit.
