Rampant
- Follow the path in front of you and kill the Flood in your way. Take a left at the pulsating sack on the wall and follow that to a door on your right. Here you'll encounter more Flood, so exterminate them and go through the door.
- TIP: It won't look like a door, but it's a fleshy circle that's closed in the wall.
- Gravemind will interrupt you much in the way Cortana does, and be prepared because this happens throughout the level.
- Continue forward through the fleshy tunnel and you will reach a hole in the ground that opens up. Jump down it and kill all the Flood that will attack you from the high ground to your right.
- Once they're down follow the path up to the high ground where you where attacked from, but be careful because this area is littered with Flood.
- TIP: The best thing to do is to stay at the top of the path, throw some grenades, shoot a few and then drop back to the area below to grab some more ammo. Repeat this until all the Flood have been dealt with.
- TIP: Look to the left and you'll see an opening to the outside. Out there is a Pelican with some guns. If you go out there you can grab a Shotgun or a Rocket Launcher. The most important thing is to simply note where this is as you will have to run back to it at the end of the level.
- Go to the back of the area and on the right you'll find another tunnel. Follow it and go through another circular door. You'll be interrupted by Gravemind and Cortana, but you'll eventually find another circular door. Go through that door and hang a right where you'll encounter more Flood. They aren't a real problem so take them out and go left. Follow this hallway until you reach another hole in the ground.
- Drop down the hole and go through the open door in this room. You'll encounter another large dose of the Flood.
- TIP: Take them out as they come at you. Don't charge into this room to quickly, and keep an eye out for the ones up on the walls that shoot the white stuff at you. Let the Flood come to you because it's easier to take down a small wave of them than an entire room full.
- After they're all dead there's a Skull to find.
- SKULL: Tilt - From the entrance to the room walk straight to the purple platform in the center. Look left and you'll see platforms that emerge from the walls that look like strange growths. You have to jump up these. There's a purple beam that juts out close to the platform on the left. Jump on the beam and then onto the top of the vertical protrusion at the end of the beam. Once on top of that you will be able to jump to the first platform on the left, and then up to the top of that platform. Then when you're on top look to your left and you'll see two more platforms. Jump up to those and then walk to your right across the large tentacle looking thing. The skull will be on the floor to your left.
- Head straight to the back of the room and you'll find another hallway. Continue forward down the hallway and take out the Flood as they show up. Use them as a guide down the hallway (If you're killing Flood you're on the right path.).
- You will eventually be interrupted, again, by Gravemind. Just after that you'll enter another circular door into a large room with a few levels.
- Each level of this room will have Flood on it. So, when entering this room take cover and kill the Flood as they become a priority. Quite a few will charge you so take them out. Move into the room and take out any other Flood that come at you. Take out any Flood Crawling on the walls before you move on.
- When the coast is clear of Flood on the ground and anything crawling on the walls walk to the left side of the room. There will be a ramp heading up. Walk up the ramp and follow the path. You will eventually come to a spot where you have to jump a gap. You will jump from a piece of metal to the rock looking thing on the other side. From this walk forward and go to your right. Follow the small corridor up and around to the top level of the room.
- Here you are bound to encounter more Flood that you didn't see from the ground. Take them out. At the end of the corridor you'll see another circular door across the room from you. That's where you're heading. Turn left and deal with the Flood as you make your way along the path. You'll eventually reach another gap that you have to jump in order to reach the door. Do so and enter the door.
- You will find yourself in another hallway. Walk through it and you'll be interrupted by a Cortana/Gravemind combo flash.
- After that you'll hit another circular door. Head on through.
- You will enter an enormous room with four large towers hanging from the ceiling. As soon as you enter the one closest to you on the right will blow up.
- After that hang a right and follow the outer structure. Kill any Flood that stand in your way and you'll eventually reach a bridge on your left that goes out into the center of the room.
- Kill the Flood in the center of the area.
- TIP: Be careful because it's a small area and there are a lot of Flood here. Toss some grenades out there and gun them down from a distance. Then go out to the center of the room.
- Take the narrow bridge on your right and you'll reach another metal walkway. Follow that and go through the first door on your right.
- You'll be interrupted by Cortana and Gravemind, but ignore it and just keep going straight through a bunch of doors.
- You will eventually enter a room with a glowing ball in the middle. Go up to the ball, smash it with a melee attack until it breaks, and a cutscene will start.
Nor Hell A Fury...
- Make your way back to the enormous room you just left and kill the Flood in your way because you're fighting for two now.
- Head back across the narrow bridge and press the button on the console located in the center of the room. This will expose the reactors. There will be guide arrows pointing right at them. Shoot or throw grenades at them in order to destroy them all the while keeping an eye out for the Flood who will be attacking you. Once all three are destroyed it's time to hightail it out of there.
- The door across the first narrow bridge will blow open as Flood pop out. Go through that door and you'll drop down a hole.
- Once you've dropped down the hole hang a right and start making your way back through the ship.
- TIP: Use the guide arrows to help you find your way as you backtrack through the level. You will still be confronted by the Flood so kill them as you run through the level or, if you want, can can just run by them.
- When you reach the room where you found the last Skull go towards the door you originally entered the room through and just inside of it a hole will blow open in the wall to your right. There is, of course, plenty of Flood to deal with, but just take them out and go through the hole in the wall.
- In the wall go right and then hang a left into the gooey orange tunnel. Follow that and you'll come to a hole in the ground. Drop down the hole and go through the circular door. There should be a guide arrow to help you out, but just keep killing Flood and moving forward. Through this room you'll come to another circular door.
- Go through that and follow the path until you emerge into a room with the Arbiter. Just behind the Arbiter there is an opening that goes outside to the Pelican from earlier. Get outside and into the Pelican to end the level.
Full Circle
- Walk with the Arbiter along the snowy path until you reach the cave.
- SKULL: Mythic - As soon as you enter the cave keep your eyes on the right side of the wall. You'll eventually see a small opening. Follow that opening to find the skull.
- Follow the cave until you find some large metallic support beams above you. Stop! There's a Terminal here.
- Terminal 7: When you hit the metal floor turn right and go up the hunks of ice. You will find a wall supported by more beams. Jump on the lower beam and follow it into a room. Look to your left and you'll see the last Terminal. Remember to read (or just keep hitting A) until the arrow in the lower left turns red. Then hit B to exit. Head back to the cave.
- Follow the cave outside. You'll see a large metallic structure in the center of this area just as the Flood show up to kill you.
- TIP: Stick close to the Arbiter as he can be a big help here because there is an insane amount of Flood.
- Keep killing Flood as they come at you and make your way around to the right side of the big metal building. Head up the path on the right side of the building.
- At the top of the hill take a left onto the large metal walkway on the side of the building. This circles around the building, goes up a ramp, circles around again, and then goes up another ramp. The entire time you are making your way up the building you will be bombarded by all different types of Flood. So keep picking up weapons and ammo as well as watching all around you.
- When you reach to top of the building there will be a large door, but you will not be able to enter until you dispatch another group of Flood. They will come at you from the right and then you'll have a short pause to grab more ammo and guns. Then they'll come at you from the left.
- Once that's done the door will open. Go inside and walk down the hallway. Take a left (there should be a guide arrow) and enter the door. Through the door you'll go right, walk down the hall, take another right, go through a door, and take a left. At this door a cutscene should start.
- The Guilty Spark is out to kill you. At first all you can do is avoid his attacks. He fires a laser which is easy to avoid by just moving right or left (Be sure not to walk of the platform and die because it is a possibility.). If you get to close to him he will use a blast to knock you back. After a while Johnson will fire his Spartan Laser at Guilty Spark. After this go and Grab the Spartan Laser from Johnson. Continue to avoid the laser attacks from Guilty Spark, and it should only take three hits with the Spartan Laser to take him down.
The Way the World Ends
- This place is going to blow, so get back outside. Backtrack through the halls and deal with the Flood you encounter.
- As soon as you get outside go up the hill of ice to your right. Kill any flood that get into your way and follow the path. There should be a guide arrow to help you. At the end of the path there is a door on your right.
- Go in that door and then hang a right inside. Follow the path until you reach a hallway on your right. Go down the hall and keep wiping out the Flood. At the end of the hall you find a door.
- Go through the door to find Johnson's Warthog. Get in the driver's seat.
- Drive down the path until you see a metal platform in front of you blow up. When that happens hang a right. This will take you to a large metal platform. This platform will have explosions as you drive over it as well as chunks of the floor falling out. Be careful and follow the guide arrow to reach the other side.
- At the end of the platform you'll reach a wall. Hang a right and drive along the path. Run over any Flood that stands in your way. When you reach the end of the path you'll have to ramp the Warthog off of it and onto another large metal platform below.
- Here the floor will again drop out at certain points, so avoid the holes and drive into the tunnel. In the tunnel beams fall from the ceiling and they can block your path if you don't drive under them fast enough.
- TIP: Stick to the left or right side of the tunnel and avoiding the middle.
- Exit the tunnel onto another metal platform with holes in the floor.
- When you reach a wall hang a left and follow the path around. Run over any Flood in your way. When you reach the end of the path ramp the Warthog off onto another large metal platform, again, watching out for the holes that appear in the ground. Just keep driving towards the guide arrow.
- You eventually ramp off the platform onto another path full of Flood that circles around. Follow it and ramp off the end of it to reach another metal platform that leads into another tunnel.
- The tunnel eventually ramps you onto another metal platform that blows up around you. Follow the guide arrow off to the right and keep avoiding holes.
- At one point you will see a large beam fall towards you. When this happens stick to the left, but not to far to the left as there will be a hole in the floor. Just keep following the guide arrow. You will eventually see the ship you need to be on in the distance. Drive towards it, gun it down the ramp, and you'll launch yourself into the hangar of the ship.
- Congratulations! You beat Halo 3.
