Helioskrill Not Unlocking?

I just recently unlocked the Legend achievement, but Helioskrill hasn’t unlocked yet. I tried the Halo Channel thing and it still hasn’t unlocked yet. Any suggestions?

Oh boy, this one again.

The situation regarding the Helioskrill has been a unique one as the original set (and its variants) were added to the REQ system as standard items around a year ago. As such, you’ll have to wait for a good while for your goodies to arrive, or you could simply obtain it through Gold Packs with the REQ system.

What worked for me, OP, is:

  • In the Master Chief Collection (MCC), change all of your spartans’ armor colors/variants (where applicable) - Once done changing all customization options, wait for an autosave icon to appear. - Once the game autosaves, quit the game. - Wait (After I changed all of my colors and quit the MCC, I went to bed. By the time I got back home from work the next day, it was unlocked in Halo 5: Guardians). Also, I did this about four days or so after I unlocked the Legend Achievement.

One of my friends supposedly unlocked it by uninstalling the MCC and reinstalling. Though, this seems like it would take quite a while.

I’ll try this. I just don’t want my effort to go to waste.

Yeah…I have a digital copy…that’d take quite a while.

I also have a digital copy, so I did not want to try my friend’s suggestion, but what I did worked for me, so…

Try this one. It has worked for everyone I’ve suggested it to.

  • Start a mission in Halo MCC on Legendary - Go back to Halo 5 and see if it unlocked.I used gravemind for this but any level should work. And I wasn’t the one to unlock this, my friend did. This is a coincidence and it works for everyone I’ve suggested it to

I recommend this, but after step 3, hard reset your Xbox then go into Halo 5. Helioskrill should be there (its what I did when I got the Achievement).

If this works, it’s much better than waiting. Hopefully OP’s problem will be solved.

[To Doctor Lays] Your original suggestion worked! I’ll admit I became rather impatient and only waited a few hours yesterday but it unlocked regardless. Thanks to all who responded with suggestions and feedback!!
