Two Betrayals collectible route at a glance
This reverse journey through the Control Room uses Banshees to place two pickups far above or away from the objective. Preserve each aircraft until the next transition and avoid destroying the post-generator Banshee flagged in current known issues. This is mission 8 of thirteen and part of the Original Campaign. Like every Halo: Campaign Evolved chapter, it contains exactly three discoverable Skulls and one named UNSC Terminal.
Alpha puts Tough Luck within one short Banshee flight. Charlie handles Black Eye, Mythic, and the Alone Terminal during the long cleanup route. Use mission replay for cleanup, choose the listed Rally Point, and check the mission counter before advancing. The four pickups can be collected across separate runs, so there is no need to force a fragile all-in-one attempt when a timed door or difficult jump fails.
Tough Luck Skull location — Rally Point Alpha
After leaving the Control Room and descending to the first Banshee, fly back toward the crest and tall light pillar above the exit. Land on the topmost flat platform. Listen for the Skull audio cue as the route gets close, and scan above and below eye level before committing to the next objective door. Tough Luck changes the campaign by this rule: Makes enemies dodge more often, berserk more readily, and refuse to retreat.
After the pickup prompt completes, pause long enough to confirm Tough Luck appears in the mission collectible display. A checkpoint reload before registration can force another trip through this section. When the approach uses a vehicle, narrow ledge, timed door, or unusual jump, make the movement attempt before clearing every distant enemy. That preserves a quick checkpoint recovery and keeps the collectible run focused on a single repeatable action.
Black Eye Skull location — Rally Point Charlie
After disabling the first conduit, descend into the valley with three large arches. Cross the middle arch, turn right, and search the snow pile among the Flood growth. Listen for the Skull audio cue as the route gets close, and scan above and below eye level before committing to the next objective door. Black Eye changes the campaign by this rule: Allows shields to recharge only after a melee strike.
After the pickup prompt completes, pause long enough to confirm Black Eye appears in the mission collectible display. A checkpoint reload before registration can force another trip through this section. When the approach uses a vehicle, narrow ledge, timed door, or unusual jump, make the movement attempt before clearing every distant enemy. That preserves a quick checkpoint recovery and keeps the collectible run focused on a single repeatable action.
Mythic Skull location — Rally Point Charlie
At the later Banshee platform between two doors, activate the local control and then take the route opposite the objective. Clear the connected rooms and controls until the Skull appears in the center of the final chamber. Listen for the Skull audio cue as the route gets close, and scan above and below eye level before committing to the next objective door. Mythic changes the campaign by this rule: Increases enemy health throughout the campaign.
After the pickup prompt completes, pause long enough to confirm Mythic appears in the mission collectible display. A checkpoint reload before registration can force another trip through this section. When the approach uses a vehicle, narrow ledge, timed door, or unusual jump, make the movement attempt before clearing every distant enemy. That preserves a quick checkpoint recovery and keeps the collectible run focused on a single repeatable action.
Alone Terminal location — Rally Point Alpha
After dealing with Guilty Spark and the Sentinels near the beginning, turn toward the rear side of the Control Room instead of leaving immediately. The Terminal is set against that back wall. Terminals use the standard interact command: X on Xbox, Square on PlayStation, or E with the default keyboard layout. Hold position until the interaction completes and the collectible notification appears.
The Alone entry is the single Terminal assigned to Two Betrayals. Finding it contributes to Lore Have Mercy and Collector’s Addition, while collecting all three local Skulls and this Terminal completes the mission’s four-item sweep. If the prompt does not appear, move around the face of the device instead of reloading immediately.
Confirm the clean sweep before leaving
Open the campaign collectible display and verify that Two Betrayals shows three of three Skulls and one of one Terminal. The expected names are Tough Luck, Black Eye, Mythic, and Alone. A global total can hide a local gap, so the mission counter is the reliable completion check.
The browser tracker keeps these four checks together and saves them only on the current device. Mark an item after the game confirms it, not when Master Chief merely reaches the room. For co-op, regroup before a checkpoint and ask every player to verify the notification; shared combat progress does not always make a missed interact prompt obvious.
