Halo: Campaign Evolved - The Silent Cartographer Skull Guide — Gaming

Halo: Campaign Evolved has ten core Missions in total, plus three unique Bonus Missions, all of which contain three collectible Skulls hidden somewhere across the map. The Silent Cartographer is easily one of the most recognizable and fan-favorite Missions from the original Halo: CE, and while it will look very familiar to the original map, the Skulls are found in very different locations.

The Silent Cartographer mission contains the Bandana, Hip Fire, and arguably the most fun/useful Skull of them all, Acrophobia, which allows Master Chief to fly and will make life a lot easier when tracking down some of the later Skulls across the game.

All The Silent Cartographer Skull Locations

The first Skull on The Silent Cartographer is found after reaching Rally Point Bravo when you're directed to find a structure located inland on the island. Once you've made your way up the canyon and defeated the Hunters and other enemies in the area, you'll want to climb to the very top of the large metal structure and head to the part where it runs into the rocks. The Acrophobia Skull is there under some leaves.

The second Skull is found inside a small cave that connects the main Covenant structure with the beach, and is relatively simple to find if you do a bit of exploring after reaching Rally Point Bravo. This is the Infinite Ammo/Grenade Skull, called Bandana.

Skull	Rally Point	Difficulty	Location	Effect
Acrophobia	Bravo	Any	Once you head to the middle part of the island to find the large structure as part of the main mission, climb to the top of that structure where the rock meets the metal. The Skull is there under some leaves.	Grants flight.
Bandana	Bravo	Any	There's a small cave leading from the large Covenant structure down to the beach. The Skull is about halfway through on the ground.	Infinite ammo and grenades.
Hip Fire	Charlie	Any	From the Rally Point Charlie spawn point, follow the waypoint until you reach a room with two Hunters and a group of Jackals. Find the nearby stairwell with blue holograms. The Skull is on a platform about halfway down the shaft.	Disables all weapon zoom.

Finally, the Hip Fire Skull is found after reaching Rally Point Charlie, and after spawning there you can follow the waypoints until you reach the room with two Hunters and a bunch of Jackal enemies. There's a stairwell nearby with several blue holograms, but if you look down the shaft you'll see two platforms. The Skull is placed on the left platform when looking down from the top where you entered.

All Silent Cartographer Skull Effects

Of all the Skulls in Halo: Campaign, arguably the most useful in terms of collecting other Skulls is the Acrophobia Skull, which grants you the power of flight. While you won't be able to collect ALL Skulls with this method, many hard-to-reach Skulls become an absolute breeze, such as the Endurance Spec Skull on Truth and Reconciliation.

As mentioned, Bandana will give you infinite ammo and grenades, while Hip Fire will disable zoom functionality for all your weapons, and is also a required Skull to unlock the LASO difficulty setting (Legendary All Skulls On). Next up, players will begin the Assault on the Control Room mission in Halo: Campaign Evolved, where you'll have to track down the next three Skulls on the list.
