3 elites 3 swords Possibly you need 3 players playing co-op Maybe all holding swords Maybe all crouching/teebaghing the 3 elites at the same time? Those are my thoughts.
Yes but only the vaporal talon is a special req between the swords. How about three players, three elites, three REQ wepons being the Vaporal Talon, The Twin Jewels, and the other the other one that I can't remember the name of
-Go to the the coliseum and then backtrack? -Kill all the elites on the mission up until that point -Only kill the enemies with an the energy sword or melee -Try having someone assassinate the Elite right before he's scripted to die (at like the 46.5th second) and while in the assassination animation have your team mate kill/betray you to cancel the assassination and see if that saves the elite -Tea-bag the 3 elites in the correct order - 3 teabags, 4 teabags, 3 teabags -Don't kill any enemies up until that point, not even AIs -Groundpound the first trigger instead of shoot it Have you tried anything of these hypothesis' Nowise?
theories and hypotheses are different. A theory is an idea that is shown to make realistic predictive measures and has been tested. A hypotheses, is an idea that hasn't yet been tested.
Repost) There are three zealots with three swords in total. And one extra sword being the req. So four swords in total. My guess is that each player picks up one sword and holds on to each, Im sure each individual character causes something to spawn like Locke alone spawns a zealot. There may be quick time sprinting.
Neurotic Geek my thought exactly! It wouldn't be a surprise either! Halo 3 had an achievement for finishing the campaign in 4-player co-op with everyone in ghosts! The Easter egg is probably tied to everyone getting swords. And it wouldn't be too much to ask either. You can command your Spartan team to pick up weapons, so you could still do it in single player. May be worth a try if you haven't tried it already +nowise10
I will probably try this out myself even if he does do this, it seems like a lot of fun! :D Although, I don't think the AI teammates can pick up Energy Swords, even if they could pick them up, the Easter Egg will probably need them to do something certain if additional Zealots spawn. Would definitely love to see @nowise10 do this still
Wow you went to a lot of effort dude. Nice work. What if on co-op mode you're supposed to collect all 3 zealot's swords? Then enter the colisseum? Just like glatiors would enter a colliseum with swords then kill everything in there with only swords?
The second easter egg you showed that gives an ultra banshee, i spend hours upon hours when halo first came out trying to work out how to do it. I then gave up. I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW
Perhaps just as the egg only checks for Locke holding a sword perhaps the next step requires another energy sword. So, Locke needs a sword to start the egg and kill the zealot, Locke + another character holding swords for the next trigger, Locke + 2 other characters for the next, and so on until the entire team has swords. I'm mostly thinking this because the elite body is moved in co-op, perhaps indicating its a co-op only egg.
What if 47 sec. are related to something like "ABC123", i mean, 4=D (Delta core) and 7=G (Gamma core)? if destroying them in that order or crounchin above them triggers the next step?
Fascinating stuff (also nice to see an upload from you again)! Just curious, did 343i actually confirm that the Easter Egg currently works (in its entirety)? I recall Halo 4’s mission Requiem had an ammo box Easter Egg where some of the steps worked, but the final step had a bug which despawns the boxes before you could get to them (am I remembering this correctly and if so, do you think it’s possible that this one could be bugged?)
josh, they did confirm it but thats it. We dont know anything else about it. It might just be a troll lol. Jk! I am trying to find the rest of the egg with some friends if you want to help us, if not its fine. We probably wont find anything.
Plot twist: The egg is broken and 343 doesn't want to or feel the need to fix it. Notice how it is in the last level of the game and may have gotten not as much attention as the other eggs in terms of refinement. I hope this isn't the case, but I hope more so that this gets a follow up video that solves it. Maybe talk to General Heed. He might have some sort of way of cracking it.
kind of a stretch, but a perspective i dont think you considered: In CoD BO1 Ascention easter egg there is a section that makes four buttons appear and all four lobby members have to press the four buttons at the SAME TIME. i bring this up because your only mention of zealot 3 is its location. maybe you need to do something there SIMULTANEOUSLY while dealing with the living zealot?? maybe another object doesnt spawn because it was there the whole time, but is only active while the living zealot.... well, lives? (i suppose thats a branch on the 47sec? tree)
Try shooting all 3 elites at once while Locke had the sword in his hand. There must be only three for a reason or kill the one while the others shoot it or sometjing
Mh, did you try to analyze the diary/memo after you kill the elite? Anyways maybe I’ll give a try later. Maybe it’s an easteregg that works in co-op, but the position of the elite in solo gives you a some kind of hint.
What if the swords direction when looking at the already dead zealots acts like an arrow or a pointer to the next area or the next easter egg itself. After the audio log was hit and the newly spawned zealot is killed. Could be something or could not be
@Nowise10 I was looking at some Halo forums about it and someone named Gamebuster1990 posted this UPDATE 2/12/18: The next step (and possibly the entirety of the egg?) has been found, thanks to zEnzine . Co-op is recomennded due to its difficulty. The steps in their entirety as we know them are shown below: 1. Locke must hit the audio log by the Xeno with an energy sword, after that, an invisible elite will spawn near the Cryptum 2. The invisible elite must be killed while locke is holding an energy sword 3. Destroy all the cores and enter the Cryptum 4. Kill all enemies in the cryptum until you are told to go down the elevator platform. DO NOT GO DOWN THE ELEVATOR. Wait about one minute, some Knights will spawn. 5. Kill the knights, and then a second wave will spawn halfway through. When you kill the second wave of Knights, make sure Locke is holding an energy sword as the last night is killed. 6. Several massive knights will spawn, once you kill these giant knights, a wave of about 20 Knights the size of ants will spawn. Once you kill all these knights, uh, nothing else happens. That may be the end of the egg, or maybe not! www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/6e35355aecdf4fd0acdaee3cc4156fd4/topics/mission-15-guardians-easter-egg-help-wanted/6670a0ea-8d79-45b8-ae5b-526f9bf79bc1/posts
There is an achievement that I find out place that you can get on this mission. The achievement is called "Icy Cool" and it requires ground pounding a power core on that mission on Heroic difficulty or higher. So, maybe that might be part of it.
Kobi Morton I can't tell if you're joking or being serious, but Default settings has Assassinations turned on thus a noob would have assassinations turned on. And, this Easter Egg did require specific actions to be performed like having Locke equip the an Energy Sword and then have someone trigger the next event, so having someone assassinate the Elite wouldn't have been far-fetched. Also, the next step of the Easter Egg has been discovered and it requires you to enter the next section of the level and play it like normal but, when Exuberant asks you to get on the lift, don't get on the lift just wait next to the ramps.
My gosh it was just a red vs blue reference but what if we are onto something. Since Locke needs to be holding the sword (key) it makes sense because it's kinda like every key has its own lock. So what if shooting the ee box is like inserting the key. Then killing the elite is like continuing to insert the key but then after that you have to turn the key to actually unlock it.
EmporerEmoji maybe a certain vehicle placement. Like look at more than just the elites Holy crap each elite has a ghost by it doesn't it! Okay possibility, while Locke is still the holding energy sword the other three have to get into these ghosts and enter the colosseum
Take the sword off the 1st delete when you kill him with your sword, use that sword to kill the 2nd elite, use the 2nd elite sword to kill the 3rd elite, and in the Colosseum you will find the mythic sword that grants visibility use that to trigger the last part of the Easter egg in the colisuem. Make sure your holding the sword in order to trigger it. It requires you to stand at the highest point in the coliseum and then crouch.
If the elite that spawns differently on Coop has ragdoll enabled then I'd guess that physics have a different time step in coop for optimization or such, which gives slightly different behaviour and might result in the elite ending up at different rest position. Just a guess though, and I can't test it because I don't have access to H5.
Yeah, but I was questioning if it really does spawn differently. I don't know that, if anyone can confirm that elite does not have ragdoll enabled we can conclude for sure that it spawns in a different place. On the other hand if it has ragdoll enabled it might just settle at a different place because physics might run slightly different in coop.
Have you guys tried this yet. So he mentioned 3 zealots that are dead. Representing the amount of zealots that need to die. One per zealot. So my point is, you spawn 3 zealots and kill them.
Possibility: The tips of the Energy Sword of the Third Zealot is pointed towards the next trigger. Reasoning: a. It involves a Zealot and an Energy Sword, b. The Energy Sword is pointed in the wrong direction for if it was dropped upon death (blade would be pointed towards the Ghost), & c. It’s something that you haven’t tried yet...
Have locke hold a sword then have the next person pick up the sword from the invisible elite, see if a different character needs to hold it and then have a third character pick up the last sword by the dead elite. Maybe there is a fourth for the last person somewhere that spawns?
343i will probably tell us the Easter Egg eventually if it is not solved since only a couple of years ago, a Halo 3 Easter Egg was revealed since not a single person found it. That being the "Happy Birthday" message or whatever in the Halo ring of the loading screen.
Hey look above the third zealot maybe there's a cliff like the first zealot also You didn't teabag the spot the 2nd zealot goes to if you don't kill him. If your reading this please try this and publish your findings and take credit if you want just do it
When teabagged the 3 elites all I could think was what if we divided 343 4 times or 3 times. For teabagging 4 times it comes to around 75 teabags for each elite I haven't checked 117 yet but I will see what that'll come too
1. Locke must hit the audio log by the Xeno with an energy sword, after that, an invisible elite will spawn near the Cryptum 2. The invisible elite must be killed while locke is holding an energy sword 3. Destroy all the cores and enter the Cryptum 4. Kill all enemies in the cryptum until you are told to go down the elevator platform. DO NOT GO DOWN THE ELEVATOR. Wait about one minute, some Knights will spawn. 5. Kill the knights, and then a second wave will spawn halfway through. When you kill the second wave of Knights, make sure Locke is holding an energy sword as the last night is killed. 6. Several massive knights will spawn, once you kill these giant knights, a wave of about 20 Knights the size of ants will spawn. Once you kill all these knights, uh, nothing else happens. That may be the end of the egg, or maybe not
Maybe because theres so much emphasis on the sword, the next egg can only be triggered with the sword that the camo Elite drops? Maybe you need to pick up that sword and go back and hit the First elite you find. This is crazy and now I'm super curious lol
Mission: Guardians, Halo 5: Guardians. Maybe it has something to do with the Guardians in the map? Maybe an egg-box is up in one of them or the three in the distance. Maybe the gondola ride or final stretch has something?
3 zealots.. 3 swords. Plus the special sword. 4 player campaign.. Locke stands on the elite without a sword, and everyone else goes to the other elites to tbag
7:46 , 10:32 - It would surely be real nice and useful if you could use a certain mode to stop and replay the events as if it were some type of... (cough) film... 343: nah, what would be the point of that?
Since it is obviously a co-op easter egg, try co-op teabagging or crouching by the 3rd elite (or second elite). Also, the elite getting in the vehicle after the 3rd grunt birthday signal may be the beginning of the third step and you may have the kill the elite then, and THEN something happens in the last room. Id check for everything: for new weapons that have infinite ammo or extra weapoms that werent there, secret switches, etc. It kinda makes sense they'd want you to not just kill the elite outright since that is pretty easy and simple. And since this egg has multiple parts, and must be on heroic or legendary, it stands to reason it might be more difficult as it goes on...
What about: the original trigger box is the starting point before each next trigger. You shoot the box, then kill the elite within the limited time, then go back to the original trigger to maybe spawn another elite somewhere else on the map, perhaps having to do it another third time?
The elite survives for 47 seconds. You might be able to start the animation of an assassination the second before he dies to keep him alive a little bit longer, or have a teammate kill you mid assassination. That might keep him alive. Next step?
In a thread discussing easter eggs in Guardians someone mentioned the idea of four swords on this level, however they couldn't find a fourth sword. PErhaps by having four players in co-op and acquiring four swords, (as the elite you spawn appears to have the fourth) you can trigger something in the colliseum?
Last one. Could be you have to kill the zealot that spawns where the dead zealot spawns in solo. And if you’re solo then kill it where it spawns in co-op
another thought/idea: can you steer/manipulate where the living zealot travels? perhaps you can lure the zealot into the arena area where the easter egg supposedly ends? maybe you need him there in the same sense you need to lure the banshee thruough the tunnel & loading point for the scarab gun in halo 2.
Perhaps all avalibble people in coop needs to wield energy swords, the three dead Sangheili Zealots have swords plus the shiny red one makes four, and at all four corpses teabag 343 times (fourth being the spawned camo elite)
Halo 2 had a similar type of easter egg I think, where there was an energy sword high up on this ledge you couldn't get to normally with an invisible switch that wouldn't activate. but I don't think anything was found after that... it was a dead-end. I think the initial idea to solve it was so buddy jump in co-op with the sword to get over the wall that wasn't climbable. Idk.
My thoughts are: What else of note is in the level? Skulls, data-pads, interesting placements etc. It's clever to research the creator and try to get into his head. I think if I were adding in an easter egg I wouldn't want it to be too easy or impossible to find. Maybe there's something not obvious but not impossible to find from trial and error... The only thing I can think is that given the other eggs aren't overly elaborate ( like 3 steps or more), it may be best to make the assumption that the next step is the end (in the colosseum). I remember the final area of the first mission is very easy to climb up and into positions where the walls go imvisible etc, maybr there's somethinh in there out of sight ... a switch? Who knows?
You probably won't find this and even if you do this idea may have already been checked, but I was thinking, one of those dead elites is a the bottom of a cliff, a cliff where the twin jewels of maethrillian is, maybe you have to hit something or a certain enemy with it in order to activate the next step. Or, maybe you have to do a halo 3 odst glitch, a glitch where if you threw lots of grenades at the dead elite bodies, they would stand up, and look around for a second, but then collapse again. Also I think you should make more videos when halo infinite comes out, I played halo 5 and didn't know about a couple of the Easter eggs you mentioned.
I have two theories you should try. maybe you need to hit the elite with the energy sword 343 times? maybe the first elite needs to kill your team mate with the energy sword? (hence why on solo the elite is dead off the ledge) I mean we can go all day in what could be.
Great video but theres one thing that I didn't find convincing: How can you be sure that the hooray trigger from the invisible elite getting into the ghost is a glitch? Concluding that thats a glitch seems like a huge assumption. You should see if he lives more than 47 seconds in every available vehicle type and/or get him to follow you to the coliseum once he's in a ghost. I think its worth a try considering the famous scarab gun glitch in Halo 2 which made you lure a banshee into a tunnel in order to hijack it for use at the end of the level to get the scarab gun. Lol I would try myself but I don't own Halo 5. Also, maybe its actually a glitch that "hooray" triggers when you kill the invisible elite. Maybe killing him is only supposed to trigger that once he's in the coliseum after you've lured him there.
we know its a glitch because its basically the same as killing him and getting the trigger that way. When he sees that ghost and attempts to get into it he turns into a "regular elite" so egg elite no longer exists and the game assumes you killed him.
Well there is a ghost by the third elite so maybe it is a glitch but why would they put in his code to enter the first vehicle he sees. That's what strikes me odd. Try giving him the ghost. I no longer have my xbone so can't help there but it's a thought.
Maybe the zealot that spawns is just the Easter egg itself. Im just spouting ideas, I never knew about these xenomorphs until this video so sorry if I sound a bit uneducated about the subject.
Maybe Locke or Vale need to grab the spawned elites sword. Maybe we need to honour the dead elites some how. Swap the weapons in such a way as to place the swords on their bodies.
Does this have anything to do with the prophets bane Easter egg on this mission? Considering the halo 4 Easter egg required crouching for a certain amount of time, maybe try crouching on the elites with a sword for a while?
3 elites, have you tried, locke just holdind the sword and the three other players teebagging the three zealots ? who knows^^ good video i really liked it
T-bag the zealot you have to kill as the second step 343/117 times, or hijack the vehicle he activates, maybe it isn't such a bug? Or t-bag all the zealots (including the second step one) 117 times.
3 elites
3 swords
Possibly you need 3 players playing co-op
Maybe all holding swords
Maybe all crouching/teebaghing the 3 elites at the same time?
Those are my thoughts.
Somebody should give it a try lol
I was thinking the exact same thing.
Car Audio.etc it's almost obvious
Yes but only the vaporal talon is a special req between the swords. How about three players, three elites, three REQ wepons being the Vaporal Talon, The Twin Jewels, and the other the other one that I can't remember the name of
Not only that but teabag them 117 times
Plot twist, it spawns a Warden Eternal.

-Only kill the enemies with an the energy sword or melee
-Try having someone assassinate the Elite right before he's scripted to die (at like the 46.5th second) and while in the assassination animation have your team mate kill/betray you to cancel the assassination and see if that saves the elite
-Tea-bag the 3 elites in the correct order - 3 teabags, 4 teabags, 3 teabags
-Don't kill any enemies up until that point, not even AIs
-Groundpound the first trigger instead of shoot it

I tried it with my friends it does not work as far as i know
3 normal swords for 3 +1req means to four then spartan locke should grab the ghost then the 4 swords will turn to 3 again so 343

Nope
The three Guardians in the background at 10:56 look so majestic.
Maybe have 3 players split up and go to each zealot and teabag them

3 guardians 4 Spartans and 3 elites

1) repeat the step that you did
2) continue the mission
3) ' don't enter the elevator
4) wait for some time
Then you will see the effect

What if the swords direction when looking at the already dead zealots acts like an arrow or a pointer to the next area or the next easter egg itself. After the audio log was hit and the newly spawned zealot is killed. Could be something or could not be
Dude. It's been 8 Months. Where is the update video for this Egg
what if the 3 elites for almost a triangle and the button is inside it
Did you try using the swords as a map?
Like In shadow of the colossus?
it's a triangle and you gotta locate the center to tbag of hold for 343/3:43 seconds?
Parth is that true or theory
Holding crouch for 3min 43sec ?
MrMackanRulez lets hope its that and not 5+ hours (343 minutes)
I did both did not work
John The hunter actually a mad man
Well the most logical clue that we have is that once you trigger the first subroutine you have 47 seconds to trigger the next.
U tried teabagging in the mantis?
How do you crouch in a mantis? Get in and out multiple times?
John Bagnall, crouch as normal, using the crouch button normally
guys, if you get an ultra ghost in the final room, put it in a corner.Then you will hear the egg trigger.

@Nowise10 I was looking at some Halo forums about it and someone named Gamebuster1990 posted this
UPDATE 2/12/18:
The next step (and possibly the entirety of the egg?) has been found, thanks to zEnzine . Co-op is recomennded due to its difficulty.
The steps in their entirety as we know them are shown below:
1. Locke must hit the audio log by the Xeno with an energy sword, after that, an invisible elite will spawn near the Cryptum
2. The invisible elite must be killed while locke is holding an energy sword
3. Destroy all the cores and enter the Cryptum
4. Kill all enemies in the cryptum until you are told to go down the elevator platform. DO NOT GO DOWN THE ELEVATOR. Wait about one minute, some Knights will spawn.
5. Kill the knights, and then a second wave will spawn halfway through. When you kill the second wave of Knights, make sure Locke is holding an energy sword as the last night is killed.
6. Several massive knights will spawn, once you kill these giant knights, a wave of about 20 Knights the size of ants will spawn. Once you kill all these knights, uh, nothing else happens. That may be the end of the egg, or maybe not!

Yeah, nowise10 knows. He joined our game when we solved it.
My god you put so much work and effort into this i applaud you
Legends say he's still figuring it it out.....
Perhaps it's a false positive and you must all, every playable character holding a sword in 4 player, perhaps...
Maybe everyone has to be holding the swords? Idk...
So much dedication, im very impressed, hope something comes up
It's been solved guys check the forums
LOVE the quality of editing. You spent some good time truly making this nerdy hobby seem so understandable and approachable by us non-Eggers.

Hey what about assassinating the third zealot elite?
There is an achievement that I find out place that you can get on this mission. The achievement is called "Icy Cool" and it requires ground pounding a power core on that mission on Heroic difficulty or higher. So, maybe that might be part of it.

It was the fault of your discord and people working together special compliments to you and the person that solved it (forgot his nam)
The amount of work you guys put in already just on this Easter egg makes me lose hope that it will ever be found lol
This is some SERIOUS dedication
What if the sword is a key?
A sword is like a key if you put it into someone it unlocks their death. Heard it somewhere from red vs blue but your probably onto something.
I also just noticed that spartan locke sounds like lock and if the sword is the key...
Harry Potter music.
My gosh it was just a red vs blue reference but what if we are onto something. Since Locke needs to be holding the sword (key) it makes sense because it's kinda like every key has its own lock. So what if shooting the ee box is like inserting the key. Then killing the elite is like continuing to insert the key but then after that you have to turn the key to actually unlock it.
Maybe your onto something. What could it be?
EmporerEmoji maybe a certain vehicle placement. Like look at more than just the elites
Holy crap each elite has a ghost by it doesn't it!
Okay possibility, while Locke is still the holding energy sword the other three have to get into these ghosts and enter the colosseum
Take the sword off the 1st delete when you kill him with your sword, use that sword to kill the 2nd elite, use the 2nd elite sword to kill the 3rd elite, and in the Colosseum you will find the mythic sword that grants visibility use that to trigger the last part of the Easter egg in the colisuem. Make sure your holding the sword in order to trigger it. It requires you to stand at the highest point in the coliseum and then crouch.
If the elite that spawns differently on Coop has ragdoll enabled then I'd guess that physics have a different time step in coop for optimization or such, which gives slightly different behaviour and might result in the elite ending up at different rest position. Just a guess though, and I can't test it because I don't have access to H5.
Malacath I feel you. I can’t test it because I don’t have access to friends
Malacath I was thinking that because the elite spawns differently in solo, that’s where the next trigger is
Yeah, but I was questioning if it really does spawn differently. I don't know that, if anyone can confirm that elite does not have ragdoll enabled we can conclude for sure that it spawns in a different place. On the other hand if it has ragdoll enabled it might just settle at a different place because physics might run slightly different in coop.
Malacath ill go look
Have you guys tried this yet. So he mentioned 3 zealots that are dead. Representing the amount of zealots that need to die. One per zealot. So my point is, you spawn 3 zealots and kill them.
Fantastic video man! Can’t wait to jump on now and see if I can find anything new :)
Possibility: The tips of the Energy Sword of the Third Zealot is pointed towards the next trigger. Reasoning: a. It involves a Zealot and an Energy Sword, b. The Energy Sword is pointed in the wrong direction for if it was dropped upon death (blade would be pointed towards the Ghost), & c. It’s something that you haven’t tried yet...
@Nowise10 how about also enabling certain skulls especially IWHBYD
Have locke hold a sword then have the next person pick up the sword from the invisible elite, see if a different character needs to hold it and then have a third character pick up the last sword by the dead elite. Maybe there is a fourth for the last person somewhere that spawns?
343i will probably tell us the Easter Egg eventually if it is not solved since only a couple of years ago, a Halo 3 Easter Egg was revealed since not a single person found it. That being the "Happy Birthday" message or whatever in the Halo ring of the loading screen.
get the battlefield community on this, absurd and over the top Easter eggs are their specialty
Niroste Productions ge
Hey look above the third zealot maybe there's a cliff like the first zealot also
You didn't teabag the spot the 2nd zealot goes to if you don't kill him.
If your reading this please try this and publish your findings and take credit if you want just do it
When teabagged the 3 elites all I could think was what if we divided 343 4 times or 3 times. For teabagging 4 times it comes to around 75 teabags for each elite
I haven't checked 117 yet but I will see what that'll come too
Do the Swords point somewhere?
Sure why not
Such dedication..... To teabag 3 elites 343 times..... exactly 1029.....
1. Locke must hit the audio log by the Xeno with an energy sword, after that, an invisible elite will spawn near the Cryptum
2. The invisible elite must be killed while locke is holding an energy sword
3. Destroy all the cores and enter the Cryptum
4. Kill all enemies in the cryptum until you are told to go down the elevator platform. DO NOT GO DOWN THE ELEVATOR. Wait about one minute, some Knights will spawn.
5. Kill the knights, and then a second wave will spawn halfway through. When you kill the second wave of Knights, make sure Locke is holding an energy sword as the last night is killed.
6. Several massive knights will spawn, once you kill these giant knights, a wave of about 20 Knights the size of ants will spawn. Once you kill all these knights, uh, nothing else happens. That may be the end of the egg, or maybe not
Maybe because theres so much emphasis on the sword, the next egg can only be triggered with the sword that the camo Elite drops? Maybe you need to pick up that sword and go back and hit the First elite you find. This is crazy and now I'm super curious lol
Mission: Guardians, Halo 5: Guardians. Maybe it has something to do with the Guardians in the map? Maybe an egg-box is up in one of them or the three in the distance. Maybe the gondola ride or final stretch has something?
3 zealots.. 3 swords. Plus the special sword. 4 player campaign.. Locke stands on the elite without a sword, and everyone else goes to the other elites to tbag
7:46 , 10:32 - It would surely be real nice and useful if you could use a certain mode to stop and replay the events as if it were some type of... (cough) film...
343: nah, what would be the point of that?
Since it is obviously a co-op easter egg, try co-op teabagging or crouching by the 3rd elite (or second elite).
Also, the elite getting in the vehicle after the 3rd grunt birthday signal may be the beginning of the third step and you may have the kill the elite then, and THEN something happens in the last room. Id check for everything: for new weapons that have infinite ammo or extra weapoms that werent there, secret switches, etc.
It kinda makes sense they'd want you to not just kill the elite outright since that is pretty easy and simple. And since this egg has multiple parts, and must be on heroic or legendary, it stands to reason it might be more difficult as it goes on...
Xenomorphs in halo dosent sound so bad
What about: the original trigger box is the starting point before each next trigger. You shoot the box, then kill the elite within the limited time, then go back to the original trigger to maybe spawn another elite somewhere else on the map, perhaps having to do it another third time?
No idea what the final easter egg will be, but my money is on a Grunt Mech that either attacks you or helps you fight in the Crypt.
YOU ARE ALIVE! Yes, my friends owe me 10$
Good work man~
have you try to bring the elite into the Coloseum?
The elite survives for 47 seconds. You might be able to start the animation of an assassination the second before he dies to keep him alive a little bit longer, or have a teammate kill you mid assassination. That might keep him alive. Next step?
Have you tried it with 4 friends? Get Locke the vorpal talon and then have the rest of the team pick up each consecutive sword
My theory is that all 4 of your players in your group must pick up one energy sword each,
What if you lure the Elite somewhere?
Did you try assassinating that Zealot since his back faces that way?
T-bag all four elites with people in co-op. approximately 117 times.
In a thread discussing easter eggs in Guardians someone mentioned the idea of four swords on this level, however they couldn't find a fourth sword. PErhaps by having four players in co-op and acquiring four swords, (as the elite you spawn appears to have the fourth) you can trigger something in the colliseum?
Maybe you have to crouch in the corner the zealot dies in. That could be why it goes there and stays there until the 47s are over
For whoever don't know, the egg was solved.
You just have to wait in the Colosseum after cleaning it and not go inside the elevator.
The eleit zeolits could be from the swords of Sun Helios
After a while I just noticed your profile pic changed to the pic of master chiefs armor in lock in halo 3 on the Marines little screen scan thing
The 3 elites, the 3 swords, 3 people, and The Answer.
You must find The Answer.
It is a legendary weapon that is a secret.
Maybe all players need to carry an energy sword then hit the audio file to spawn the invis zealot?
Last one. Could be you have to kill the zealot that spawns where the dead zealot spawns in solo. And if you’re solo then kill it where it spawns in co-op
another thought/idea: can you steer/manipulate where the living zealot travels? perhaps you can lure the zealot into the arena area where the easter egg supposedly ends?
maybe you need him there in the same sense you need to lure the banshee thruough the tunnel & loading point for the scarab gun in halo 2.
Perhaps all avalibble people in coop needs to wield energy swords, the three dead Sangheili Zealots have swords plus the shiny red one makes four, and at all four corpses teabag 343 times (fourth being the spawned camo elite)
Halo 2 had a similar type of easter egg I think, where there was an energy sword high up on this ledge you couldn't get to normally with an invisible switch that wouldn't activate. but I don't think anything was found after that... it was a dead-end. I think the initial idea to solve it was so buddy jump in co-op with the sword to get over the wall that wasn't climbable. Idk.
this was on zanzibar I believe. Don't know how I left that out initially. m
Nvm, I was thinking of the Metropolis - Scarab Gun easter egg www.halopedia.org/Scarab_Gun
My thoughts are: What else of note is in the level? Skulls, data-pads, interesting placements etc. It's clever to research the creator and try to get into his head. I think if I were adding in an easter egg I wouldn't want it to be too easy or impossible to find. Maybe there's something not obvious but not impossible to find from trial and error...
The only thing I can think is that given the other eggs aren't overly elaborate ( like 3 steps or more), it may be best to make the assumption that the next step is the end (in the colosseum). I remember the final area of the first mission is very easy to climb up and into positions where the walls go imvisible etc, maybr there's somethinh in there out of sight ... a switch? Who knows?
There's 3 Elites and 4 swords... Possibly another set of 3 semi-relevant items in the building?
You probably won't find this and even if you do this idea may have already been checked, but I was thinking, one of those dead elites is a the bottom of a cliff, a cliff where the twin jewels of maethrillian is, maybe you have to hit something or a certain enemy with it in order to activate the next step. Or, maybe you have to do a halo 3 odst glitch, a glitch where if you threw lots of grenades at the dead elite bodies, they would stand up, and look around for a second, but then collapse again. Also I think you should make more videos when halo infinite comes out, I played halo 5 and didn't know about a couple of the Easter eggs you mentioned.
I have two theories you should try.
maybe you need to hit the elite with the energy sword 343 times?
maybe the first elite needs to kill your team mate with the energy sword? (hence why on solo the elite is dead off the ledge)
I mean we can go all day in what could be.
Great video but theres one thing that I didn't find convincing: How can you be sure that the hooray trigger from the invisible elite getting into the ghost is a glitch? Concluding that thats a glitch seems like a huge assumption. You should see if he lives more than 47 seconds in every available vehicle type and/or get him to follow you to the coliseum once he's in a ghost. I think its worth a try considering the famous scarab gun glitch in Halo 2 which made you lure a banshee into a tunnel in order to hijack it for use at the end of the level to get the scarab gun. Lol I would try myself but I don't own Halo 5.
Also, maybe its actually a glitch that "hooray" triggers when you kill the invisible elite. Maybe killing him is only supposed to trigger that once he's in the coliseum after you've lured him there.
we know its a glitch because its basically the same as killing him and getting the trigger that way. When he sees that ghost and attempts to get into it he turns into a "regular elite" so egg elite no longer exists and the game assumes you killed him.
Well there is a ghost by the third elite so maybe it is a glitch but why would they put in his code to enter the first vehicle he sees. That's what strikes me odd. Try giving him the ghost. I no longer have my xbone so can't help there but it's a thought.
maybe all 4 players are required to carry energy swords, as there is one for Locke, and 3 elites that have swords as well
Maybe the zealot that spawns is just the Easter egg itself. Im just spouting ideas, I never knew about these xenomorphs until this video so sorry if I sound a bit uneducated about the subject.
All 4 Spartans must be holding swords......maybe?
Maybe Locke or Vale need to grab the spawned elites sword. Maybe we need to honour the dead elites some how. Swap the weapons in such a way as to place the swords on their bodies.
Maybe the Energy Swords of the dead Zealots are all pointing towards something?
Does this have anything to do with the prophets bane Easter egg on this mission? Considering the halo 4 Easter egg required crouching for a certain amount of time, maybe try crouching on the elites with a sword for a while?
3 elites, have you tried, locke just holdind the sword and the three other players teebagging the three zealots ? who knows^^ good video i really liked it
T-bag the zealot you have to kill as the second step 343/117 times, or hijack the vehicle he activates, maybe it isn't such a bug? Or t-bag all the zealots (including the second step one) 117 times.
