Mythic Map Pack Skull Locations

**It is easiest to obtain these skulls by entering forge mode.**

Mythic Map Pack Skulls---There is a single skull hidden on each map of the Mythic Map Packs, or the 6 Mythic Maps on the Multiplayer disc that is included with Halo 3: ODST.  Once again, there will be step-by-step instructions on how to get them.  Remember that these skulls are easily obtained by going into forge mode and then switching to the monitor mode, which allows you to edit the maps. ***Note***  You must have XBOX LIVE to obtain these maps unless you buy Halo 3: ODST that has the Multiplayer disc included..  The map packs cost 800 Microsoft points each if you are playing on a regular Halo 3 disc and do not own Halo 3: ODST, but if you do own it, or have access to it, DO NOT buy these maps unless you will not have access to the maps anytime you want.

1.  Map: Assembly; Instructions:  Go into monitor mode and look near the center of the map.  You will see a giant structure with 2 pipes sticking out of the sides.  Go to the pipe on the left, if you don't find the skull there, go to the right pipe.  The skull lies on 1 of the pipes, all you have to do is to exit monitor mode and pick up the skull.  Which pipe the skull is on depends on which side of the map you spawn on.

2.  Map: Citadel; Instructions:  When you spawn you will be facing a large opening, go into monitor mode and exit through that opening and turn right.  Proceed through the center of the map and enter the room/hallway with the overshield.  Once you enter the room/hallway, the overshield should be on your left.  Turn left and go past the overshield.  Don't go very far because you should come to a "bend" in the hallway.  This is much like an oddly shaped corner, but look up and you should see some metallic rafters.  Look up and to the right side of the rafters, fly up and when you cannot ascend anymore, look to your left and the skull should be in front of you.  This may take you a few tries, but you must exit monitor mode and immediately press RB, or whatever button you have set to pick up weapons.  You will fall to the floor very fast, so if you don't get the skull the first try, keep trying.

3.  Map: Orbital; Instructions:  Find the room with the large silver wall extending from the top of the doorway to the ceiling.  Go into monitor mode and ascend to the top right of this wall where there is a ledge.  Drop onto the ledge, out of monitor mode, and crouch.  Walk to the skull and pick it up.

4.  Map: Heretic; Instructions:  When you spawn you will be facing a large opening, go into monitor mode and exit through that opening and fly up to the large platform in the center of the map.  Look at the wall that is directly across from the opening you just exited and there should be some "flap" type shutters.  On the right half of those, at the bottom, lies the skull.  Fly over to it, exit monitor mode and pick it up.

5.  Map: Longshore; Instructions:  When you spawn go around the far side of the large structure beside you.  Go into monitor mode and look towards your right at the edge of the map.  Immediately you will see a vent-like structure ascending up the side of a building.  Go to the left side of that where it arcs inward towards the building wall and the skull sits upon the vent.  Exit monitor mode and pick it up!

6.  Map: Sandbox; Instructions:  This skull is by far the hardest to obtain from the Mythic Maps.  There are several ways you can get the skull.  Go into forge mode and look around until you find the sun.  To the right of the sun are 2 Guardians, which on this map, are large towers surrounding the map that shoot you if you leave the boundaries.  In between those 2 Guardians to the right of the sun is the skull.  The tricky part is getting to it.  You can't just go into monitor mode and hope to fly to it without dying.  I suggest building a tunnel to the skull.  If you make a successful tunnel, you should be able to just walk, or fly through it to pick up the skull at the end.

***Alternatively*** You can go on http://www.bungie.net/ and download a good map from somebody, and use that, or you can go on my file share and use mine.  On my file share, it is in slot number 2.  Once again, my Gamertag is G3t Pro.  Here is a link to download my map variant:  http://www.bungie.net/Online/Halo3UserContentDetails.aspx?h3fileid=117937141. There you have it!  Now you have all the skulls from the Mythic Maps!  You are 1 step closer to getting Recon Armor!
