Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary Skull and Terminal locations


ZB-85

Recommended Posts

It took me a while to make this, but here are all the skull and terminal locations.

 

Skull Locations:

 

Bandanna skull:

  • In the "The Silent Cartographer" mission, after the Covenant lock the doors, go to the security override building. Turn right in the tunnel before activating the console, then go outside. Turn right again to find the exterior of the tunnel you just came through. The skull is on top of this tunnel, at the far end. Grenade jump on top to collect the Bandanna skull. This skull gives you infinite ammunition.

Black Eye skull:

  • At the beginning of "The Library" mission, before you enter the big round room where the Index is found, there are vents on the wall where Flood come out of. Have your back facing the entrance to the Index chamber. The skull will be inside the vent to your right. Grenade jump onto the platform in front of it, then jump normally into the vent. Go to the end of the vent to collect the Black Eye skull. The skull makes only melee attacks restore your shields.

Boom skull:

  • In the "Halo" mission, approach the tunnel in a Warthog. Drive to the left, get out, and walk up the narrow path to find the Boom skull. This skull makes explosions have twice the damage radius.

Eye Patch skull:

  • In "The Library" mission, reach the end of the level, and locate the door that opens. Usually, you would walk directly across a bridge and end the level on the elevator that leads to the Index. The skull is located beyond this point, at the opposite side of the level. You must walk around to get there. This skull deactivates auto aim.

Famine skull:

  • In "The Silent Cartographer" mission, turn around at the start, and walk around the island until you reach the large rock where the Pelican crash site is found later. Walk up to the top of the rock to find the Famine skull. This skull makes weapons dropped by the CPU have half the normal amount of ammunition.

Fog skull:

  • In the "Assault On The Control Room" mission, go down the first elevator. You will find a transparent object in the middle of the room with fog going through it, and four platforms around it. Grenade jump on the platform that looks different from the other three. Do this by first climbing onto the ledge behind it, then throw a grenade directly at your feet. Once on that platform, jump into the vent on top of the fog platform to find the Fog skull. This skull disables radar.

Foreigner skull:

  • In the "Truth And Reconciliation" mission, enter the large hanger before the brig on the lower level. You will see the Covenant drop ship that Keys eventually pilots. Look inside the door farthest from where you first enter the room and to the right to find the Foreigner skull. Note: The door is locked and only allows enemies to enter the fight. Run into the door when it is opening to enter it. This skull prevents prayers.from picking up or using Covenant weapons.

Grunt Birthday Party skull:

  • In "The Maw" mission, reach the point where Foehammer comes to pick you up. When going to the nav point where she picks you up, go past the center where you are supposed to stop and look to the right to see "railing" sticking out of the platform. Climb on to it. The Grunt Birthday Party skull is at the far end. This skull makes a spray of confetti appear when a Grunt is killed by a headshot.

Iron skull:

  • At the beginning of "The Pillar Of Autumn" mission, immediately turn around, and look behind the two large boxes by the wall to find the Iron skull. This skull makes dying in co-op reset you at the last saved checkpoint and dying in solo restart the mission.

Malfunction skull:

  • In the "Assault On The Control Room" mission, reach the large underground section past the frozen lake with the two Wraiths and the Banshee. Look for the turret on a broken bridge to the right. Walk toward the bridge, and look down in the chasm to the left to find a conduit with the Malfunction skull. This skull makes a random part of the HUD disabled when you respawn.

Mythic skull:

  • At the beginning of the "Halo" mission, move toward the large waterfall. The Mythic skull is behind the large rock with plants growing down above it. This skull makes the Convenant have twice the health and Sentinels have energy shields.

Oddball skull:

  • In the "Pillar Of Dawn" mission, after Master Chief has awoken, walk straight ahead from the pod he gets out of. Go behind the two round barrels to find the Oddball skull.

 

Piñata skull:

  • In the "Two Betrayals" mission, reach the point where the "Final Run" chapter title appears as you exit a tunnel from underground (the area with the broken bridge). Cortana will mark Pulse Generator #3 with a navigation point. The Piñata skull is located above the tunnel, where a Wraith was located in the "Assault On The Control Room" mission. Use grenade jumps or a Banshee to reach it. This skull makes grenades drop when enemies are punched.

Recession skull:

  • In the "343 Guilty Spark" mission, after getting off Pelican E419 at the start, turn left to face the left side of a very large glowing green tree. Remain in that direction, and move directly ahead while avoiding obstacles. You will eventually reach a hill with two trees and a bush in the middle. The Recession skull is behind the bush. This skull makes every shot use twice the ammunition.

 

 

Terminal Locations:

 

 

Terminal #1 – Pillar of Autumn

  • Early in the stage, moving towards the bridge, you’ll talk to Keyes. When you have control again, look on the bridge for a red computer console, that’s your terminal.

Terminal #2 – Halo

  • Entering the underground tunnel, instead of jumping over the gap, search for a side tunnel that leads directly to the terminal.

Terminal #3 – Truth and Reconciliation

  • Reaching the bridge and defeating the Elite there, search the raised central platform.

Terminal #4 – Silent Cartographer

  • In the center of the island, you’ll face off against two Hunters. Find the terminal on the outerwall of the central structure in this area.

Terminal #5 – Assault on the Control Room

  • Near the end of the level, you’ll reach the pyramid-shaping Control Room structure. At the center of the pyramid is a large piece of the structure leading directly into a crevasse in the ground. Down in the crevasse, you’ll find secret ammo and a terminal.

Terminal #6 – 343 Guilty Spark

  • Reaching the elevator leading to the facility exit, turn around and look above the door. The terminal is above the elevator room door. To get up there, you’ll need to jump off the elevator as it moves up.

Terminal #7 – The Library

  • On the third floor of the Library, you’ll eventually reach a large circular room where the Index platform is just above you. Go right from the entrance, jump over the barrier, and you’ll enter another room where the terminal is just ahead, in plain view.

Terminal #8 – Two Betrayals

  • In the control room, in the beginning, look around the circular chamber and you’ll find the terminal across from the control console.

Terminal #9 – Keyes

  • After finding Keyes, absorbed by the Flood, defend yourself against the incoming enemies. In this room, search the two sunken crevices to your sides, you’ll find the terminal down in one of the two crevices.

Terminal #10 – The Maw

  • Play until you reach the Cryogenic Storage Bay, and search the walls for the console.

Enjoy finding these! :)

The terminal for the Library is NOT located in the elevator room.

 

This has tricked me and some of the players I've talked to about it, and missing this can make the Library exponentially aggravating on higher difficulties. It is located in the room that has a huge walkway extending halfway around a large vertical hollow. You will see this familiar space over and over again but the terminal is located on the third floor.

 

You will know which floor you are on because the Chapter Title while riding the elevator will be "But I Don't Want To Ride The Elevator" after which you'll arrive on the third floor.

Don't get on the elevator again until you've found the terminal.

Thanks for posting. I still haven't finished CEA simply because I've played through CE so much. When I get the time and will-power to play through it, I'll use this guide.

CEA honestly feels like a new game to me, just packs more of a wallop than the classic, i don't know what it is. but it just feels better.
