Halo 3 :: Armor Permutations

Read Description!


This video shows all the spartan and elite armor permutations and how to unlock them. Please comment and rate. The song is Cast Me Aside by Drowning Pool.


Because of some glitches with the armors and achievements, here is what you need to do to get the following armor -

ODST :: Unlock the Spartan Graduate Achievement. Due to a glitch regarding the new rank progression system this Achievement must be unlocked by reaching the rank of Private in any playlist ranking.

Mark V :: Unlock the UNSC Spartan Achievement. Due to a glitch regarding the new rank progression system this Achievement must be unlocked by reaching the rank of Sergeant in any playlist ranking.

Rogue :: Unlock the Spartan Officer Achievement. Due to a glitch regarding the new rank progression system this Achievement must be unlocked by reaching the rank of Lieutenant in any playlist ranking.

Security :: Earn 750 of 1000 gamerscore on Halo 3. Due to inconsistency, this armor permutation is not always given at 750. There are some reports that the Security Shoulders need a minimum of 450-995 gamerscore, even though the official guide to Halo 3 lists the requirements as 750 (could also be total metagame points). Even then, the armor permutation may be unlocked, and then re-lock itself after a time, as has been reported. The only way to keep it permanently is to get all the achievements. This permutation may sometimes need the player's model to have accessed online to unlock it. The easiest way to get them is unlocking the Marathon Man Achivement.

Katana :: Unlock at least 49 achievements out of 79 in Halo 3. NOTE: There are reports from people who get it with less achievements. Since the release of the mythic map pack the Katana seems to unlock for those that download early (without the need for 1000 gamerscore OR 49 achievements).


Here are more in-depth descriptions for a couple more armor variants -

Commando Shoulders :: These are unlocked by default because it was changed on Febuary 19, 2008 from the Auto Update 1. Originaly the shoulders were unlocked by earning the 'Steppin-Razor' achievement. NOTE: This is only true if you have bought a Halo 3 past that date.

Recon :: Get all the Vidmaster Achievements in Halo 3 and Halo 3: ODST. It can also be unlocked by doing something that makes Bungie feel you deserve it, such as a forge map or screenshot.

Bungie :: A popular misconception is that the Bungie Flaming Helmet is actually a helmet, but in fact, it is a piece of fire on the collar. Thus, it is a chest piece. It is the Bungie Chest Piece that allows the flame on the head which can be used with any helmet and shoulder piece. The only way to get it currently is to get hired at Bungie. As they say, "Get hired, get fire".
