OKAY! I’m sure you’ve all heard about people whining about how its “impossible” to get this skull due to an insufficient number of grunts…well thats NOT my problem…I’ve found this skull to be impossible to get since the game simply wont GIVE it to me despite the fact that I’ve completed this mission on Normal and heroic, solo’d and co-opped, and killed over 100 grunts everytime, had troops stationed where the map pings and NOTHING! No Skull, no nothing… what in the name of the Halo Gods (no not 343…you guys WISH) is happening here?
Anyone know what I can do, or who’s ear I need to put a bug in to get this fixed?
Major frustrations!
ever try looking it up on youtube?
that’s where i would go as a last ditch resort
No, I tried text walkthrough, picture walkthroughs, youtube, you name it. I’ve done everything a normal person is supposed to do to get this skull and NOTHING. I’m just trying to get what I’ve rightfully earned (about 50 times over at least)
Have you tried killing over 100 grunts?
the time margin between you meeting the requirements (100 grunt kills) and you being able to get the skull is tiny. you if your lucky will only just get the 100 grunt kills just prior to mission completion. the map will ping you with the location after you’ve completed the relevant secondary objective. if it’s not shown as done in your mission log then you haven’t killed enough grunts simple as. you will need to do this on heroic or higher else else there won’t be enough grunts to kill.
Everytime I hit the 100 Grunt Score (usually on Legendary), it appears at mine Halo Wars. You checked the whole place? Spinned the camera? Not sure, but I think that was one of the skulls who has been hidden because of some environment obsticle.
Lets try it together as soon as I got Gold again, hit me up, Gamertag: Seraphim Crypto

leave a marine where it spawns, ram the grunts that get carpet bombed
There is also the simple fact that some skulls / Black boxes are difficult to spot. On the mission where you get the H.A.W.X it took me ages to locate the black box and it turned out i had been staring right at it or half the game it just blended in to the hull of the spirit of fire that well.
