This is a guide to gaining all of the achievements in Halo 3. The
achievements aren't all that difficult to achieve but I'm just here
explaining strategies and locating the easiest way to gain them. If
you have suggestions and they sound legit, I will gladly use them
on my guide and will give credit of course. Just send me an email
with the subject as the achievement, "Halo 3", or "strategy",
otherwise I'll think it's spam and delete it. Also, let my know if
I've made any mistakes on anything. Thanks for looking over my
guide!

Multiplayer Achievements
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
31. Graduate (10)
- Earn 5 EXP or finish 10 games to complete training in
online play
32. UNSC Spartan (15)
- Earn a Sergeant rating in online play
Most easily earned by playing ranked/social team games,
killing a lot of people, winning a lot of games, and
making the MVP of the team.
33. Spartan Officer (25)
- Become an Officer in online play
34. Two For One (5)
- Score a double kill with a single spartan laser shot
Not an easy achievement to get but it's less difficult on
the smaller maps, like High Ground. Just grab the spartan
laser and just hope two enemies get close enough to
eachother to take them both out in one shot. Try going
in the bunker with a buddy to protect you. Look for
enemies huddled together around the stairs or in the open.
Charge, and shoot.
35. Too Close To The Sun (5)
- Destroy a banshee with the spartan laser or missle pod
in ranked free for all or in campaign.
The way I did this one is right in the beginning of The
Covenant mission. Conserve some spartan laser ammo and
take out all enemies in the area. When you reach the
checkpoint where a pelican drops a mongoose and a warthog,
(right after you kill the anti-air wraith on the hill)
there should be some banshees flying over head. Zoom in
and fire. If you miss and are out of ammo, just revert to
last save and start over.
36. Triple Kill (5)
- Kill 3 enemies within 4 seconds of eachother in a ranked
free for all playlist.
Easiest way to do this is on the playlist Lone Wolves.
Grab a shotgun, sword, rocket launcher or turret and join
in an unsuspecting firefight and unload into the group.
37. Overkill (5)
- Kill 4 enemies within 4 seconds of eachother in a ranked
free for all playlist.
(Look at Triple Kill strategy. AND DON'T DIE.)
38. Killing Frenzy (5)
- Kill 10 enemies without dying in a ranked free for all
playlist.
You can easily do this one with shotty snipers on the
Valhala map. You can sit and wait at the fort but you'll
easily be notcied sooner or later so try going behind
pelican with a buddy, have him shotgun enemies that get
too close and snipe anybody that you can see. Try to
ditract them with a sniper on the hill in the middle. Try
to keep well hidden because sooner or later they're
going to head for you so move after about 4 kills or so
to a new location keeping your buddy with you. Just
remember to keep that head down!
Another way to do this is to use a shotty snipers on High
Ground and crouch in the bunker so you'll be undetected.
Kill a few and move on around the edges. Keep a varity of
grenades handy too. If you start to get sniped at, deploy
the bubble and have your buddy distract them and sneak
around the side to reach the cliff in the back and pick
some enemies off from there (where the oversheild is) and
KEEP YOUR HEAD DOWN.
39. We're In For Some Chop (5)
- Destroy an enemy vehicle with equipment in a ranked
playlist or in the campaign.
Best bet is to set a trip mine. If there's an enemy
trying to splatter you, set it down and bye-bye he'll go.
You may kill yourself though in the process but heeello
achievement!
40. Lee R Wilson Memorial (5)
- Score 5 grenade sticks in ranked free for all online.
Pretty sure this means just to collect 5 grenade sticks.
Not too sure if you have to stick or kill anybody but I'm
pretty sure you don't.
41. Steppin' Razor (5)
- Score a Triple Kill with the energy sword in ranked free
for all play.
The easiest map I've found to get this is on The Pit map.
Grab the sword in the room on the second floor all the
way on the side, near the fence is with the vehicles on
the other side. You can make it even easier by putting a
bubble in the center of the room and swipe everyone that
comes through.
42. Mongoose Mowdown (5)
- Kill an enemy with the Mongoose by running (splattering)
them over in ranked free for all play.
Easiest map to do this in is High Ground. Remember to use
a mongoose, and not the ghost. Just keep driving around
until you hit someone and don't stop because that makes
you an easy target. It's more enclosed and smaller than
other maps making it easier for you to splatter them.
43. Up Close and Personal (5)
- Kill five enemies by melee or assassination in ranked free
for all play.
Easily done since it's not hard to press the B button near
an enemey, everyone does it. Just weaken them a bit, throw
some grenades, run up and melee them. Great in close-
quarters like High Ground, Narrows and The Pit.
44. Fear The Pink Mist (5)
- Kill 5 enemie with the needler in a ranked for free all or
in campaign
This is probably one of the first achievements you'll get.
Just grab a needler and start shootin'! Make sure the
crosshair is in red otherwise you're just waistin' ammo.
45. Headshot Honcho (5)
- Kill 10 enemies with headshots in ranked free for all play
or in the campaign.
I've been told that you must get the 10 headshots in a
row, even though it doesn't say that. If someone wants to
clarify that with me, email me.
46. Used Car Salesman (5)
- Detroy a vehicle that has three enemies in it in a ranked
playlist or campaign.
I suggest doing this on campaign. There seems to be a
glitch, which is how I got it to where when you're in the
mission Crow's Nest, when you enter the hangar. There will
be a couple of Covenant drop ships that enter the hangar.
I just meleed the turret in the front when it got close
and voila achievement.
For Multiplayer, you'd be lucky to find a warthog with 3
guys in it but it is possible. Use a Power drain and hit
'em with plasma grenades and rockets before they escape!
Oh the poor souls. haha-
48. MVP (5)
- Earn the MVP in a ranked playlist.
Basically, this achievement just wants you to get at the
top of the score (kills) list. You must win the match too
otherwise you won't get it. At least, for me it didn't.
49. Maybe Next Time Buddy (5)
- After being boarded in free for all online play, board the
same vehicle again within 10 seconds.
There's really no easy way to get this, but you can prevoke
it. Just get a ghost in High Ground or Last Resort and
drive around some enemies, shooting them, but not killing
them. Get close enough to where they would want to hijack
it. Let them, then reclaim what's rightfully yours right
after they take it. You can kill them also, but make sure
you don't destroy the vehicle as well.

There are 9 gold skulls and there are 4 silver skulls to be found.
Gold skulls gain you achievements, sadly silver ones don't but in
my opinion are much more awesome!
*Note: To pick up a skull, walk over it while holding RB [Right Bumper]
ALSO, YOU MUST START THE MISSION FROM THE BEGINNING TO GET THE
SKULL, IF YOU SKIP TO RALLY POINTS, THEY WILL NOT BE THERE.
GOLD SKULLS
this is a video to find all of the gold skulls, provided by
xTala25x if you're stuck
http://youtube.com/watch?v=JGD8phQhU7Q
1. Iron
"Death carries a heavy price"
This skull will cause you to return to the beginning of
the mission when you die. If you use it in co-op, the
death of any player will cause all players to return to
the previous checkpoint. Who would honestly make them-
selves suffer using this skull, unless you're ridicu-
lously good?
Found on Sierra 117-
2. Black Eye
"Bash your way to better health"
If you take any damage to your shield, it won't regenerate
unless you hit an enemy with a melee attack. ONLY use
where you can melee a lot of enemies. Sucks if you like
ridin in cars a lot.
Found on Crow's Nest-
3. Tough Luck
"Your foes always make every saving throw"
This skulls effect is also annoying because enemies will
be better at diving away from your grenades and needlers.
Makes it more of a challenge to kill brutes and the like.
Found on Tsavo Highway-
4. Catch
"Pull pin. Count to three. Throw"
Enemies that throw grenades will throw more of them. Like
Grunts! That means, more Kamikaze Grunts and a lot more
dying. BUT, enemies will also drop more grenades so that
means more awesome explosions in firefights!
Found on The Storm-
5. Fog
"You'll miss those eyes in the back of your head"
This skulls will take away your tracker/radar. Not a big
deal since you can see and hear where most enemies are.
Can be annoying when fighting invisible Brutes or in
vehicle fights, but not too shabby.
Found on Floodgate-
6. Famine
"Trust us. Bring a magazine"
Get ready to conserve some ammo! Actually I didn't find
this one to be much of a problem either. All it does is
make ammo more scarce when you pick it up from dead ene-
mies. Drop pods and weapon racks will still be full
though!
Found on The Ark-
7. Thunderstorm
"Feild promotions for everyone!"
This skull pretty much just promotes every enemy. Every-
one will become tougher versions of themselves. Brutes
become Captains/Cheiftans and Grunts will be the toughest
gray versions. And of course, the Flood will be tougher
sheilded versions.
Found on The Covenant-
8. Tilt
"What was once resistance is now immunity"
This one can be quite a nuisance since you must take
down the sheilds of Brutes and some of the Flood. This
means you must strip their armor using plasma weapons,
then finish them off with some bullets to the head.
Found on Cortana-
9. Mythic
"Coverage under the Covenant Health Plan"
This effect will make enemies take more hits to kill.
Putting it simply, gives them twice as much of health.
I don't recommend this on Legendary, you might just
give yourself a heart attack.
Found on Halo-
SILVER SKULLS
this is a video to find all of the silver skulls, provided by
xTala25x if you're stuck
http://youtube.com/watch?v=WlSWOB3MhIg
10. Blind
"Shoot from the hip"
Makes everything, eh, blind. Which means, no cross hair, no
sheild, grenade, waypoint, motion tracker or weapons
indicator. Not really all that worth it.
Found on Sierra 117-
11. Cowbell
"More band for your buck"
Increases explosions from grenades, needlers, anything that
blows up. Awww yeah!
Found on The Ark-
12. Grunt Birthday Party
"Light a match..."
This is my favorite skull, whenever you shoot a grunt in the
head, confetti will spew out of it's head and scream "hurray"!
Found on Crow's Nest-
13. I Would Have Been Your Daddy (IWHBYD)
"But a dog beat me over the fence"
I actually didn't notice too much of a difference in dialog with
this skull on but it's supposed to include extra dialog at
certain points in campaign.
Found on The Covenant-

There are 7 total Terminals that are only found in 3 levels.
Forerunner Terminals are simply backstory and you read them to find
out what happened to the last day of the Forerunners. Find all 7 of
them and get an achievement, yay!
this is a video to find all of the terminals, provided by xTala25x
http://youtube.com/watch?v=V0QCiP4SVEY
*Note: You do not need to get them in order of eachother. Also, make
sure to read everything until a red arrow appears near the
bottom. That's a sign you can back out of the Terminal.
Annoying, if you're only in it for the achievement.
The Ark Terminals
1. This terminal is in the beginning of the level, you head through
a small Forerunner corridor with a room to your left. Head into
that room to find the terminal on the right. An easy find.
2. The second one is a bit further through. It's when you follow
Guilty Spark and extend the bridge for the scorpions and
warthogs. Turn around after extending the bridge. You'll see it.
3. The last one is underneath a ramped stairwell near the end of
the mission before another firefight. There should be a room
right under the stairwell and voila!
The Covenant Terminals
4. As you make your way to shut down the first sheild, jump across
the gap near the first elevator and there's your terminal.
5. This terminal is actually near the skull, Thunderstorm.
6. The next terminal is just like the first one in this mission.
jump across the gap at the third elevator before deactivating
the third sheild to get your terminal.
Halo Terminal
7. Right in the beginning of the level before any fights. Keep to
the right as you're walking and look for some icey ledges leading
upwards to the right when you have the choice of jumping down or
going right.
You should now have your Marathon Man achievement, if not, you may
have missed a terminal, or did not read or skip through it correct-
ly. Only press the B button when the red arrow appears near the
bottom. The A button will skip through without interrupting
anything.
