Armor Permutations

How To Get All The Armor Types

I have been asked many times by my friends "what do I need to do to get that kind of armor." Well this guide will help you in unlocking all of the Halo 3 Armor Permutations. In Custom games, and Online matchmaking over Xbox Live, players are given the opportunity to customize their player profile by changing their armor (Helmet, Shoulders, and Body). Many of the armor in Halo 3 is locked until a player completes a certain task. This guide will help players in unlocking all of the armor sets to fully customize their own identity.

Flaming Helmet: A popular misconception is that the Bungie Flaming Helmet is actually a helmet mostly perceived as Hayabusa, 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 is to get hired at Bungie.
