— Map Description

Heretic is an Halo 3 map that was shipped on September 22nd, 2009 with Halo 3: ODST, as a part of the Mythic Map Pack. It is a remake of Midship, a Halo 2 multiplayer level[1].

Design

The map takes place inside the Pious Inquisitor, like its predecessor. Outside of the map the player can see a fleet of Assault Carriers and CCS-Class Battlecruiser, all heading slowly for an unknown gas giant.

Skull

The crest of the hidden skull on this level appears to be the Mark of Shame.

It is located on one of the blue ledges beside the Sword platform. Since the map is symmetrical, it can be hard to find, and as such you may need to spend some time locating it.

Achievements

On Heretic, there are two achievements available to get, the first being the hidden skull which will award you 25 gamerscore, and the second being Blades of Fury, the requirements of which being to get a Sword Spree on Heretic (ranked or social), and will also award you 25 gamerscore.
