Easter Egg Weapons Hints Thread
So, you want to know how to spawn two badass weapons to have fun with eh? You’ve come to the right place. There are a total of 5 hidden tiny switches scattered across the playspace. I obviously want everyone to find and use the rewards, so the decision was made to include this little hint thread for the curious. Turning on all 5 switches will unlock you two overpowered guns that will spawn in the underground central passage, near the AI Master Kill Switch. They'll continue to spawn after being picked up, so don’t worry about losing them.

These switches will need to be enabled in order, with completion of one spawning the next. Here’s where you can start looking to find these hidden buttons:

1. On something that “grows” near the Covenant base.
2. On a piece of UNSC tech, somewhere in neutral territory.
3. Inside the UNSC base, somewhere off the beaten path.
4. On a neutral structure being consumed by the sands.
5. On an object that once fell, not on either faction’s side.

Good luck with your search! It definitely is worth it! Comment below and let me know if you completed the hunt!

seems like the second one is super hard to find, the only "tech" is the supply pods and the odst pod , neutral ground is pretty hard to tell, the last one seems easy but its not, still having trouble with. edit, found it, exactly where i thought it was, but some reason was just missing

Glad to hear that you were successful! My original idea was to make it 7 switches (as Bungie loved the number 7), but I felt that would be too tedious and time consuming for players to do each time they load up the map.

I really can't find the fifth one at all. I'd think the big circular thing would be the thing that has fallen but I've checked all over and I can't find the switch

I heard that something in the center of the map might contain what you are looking for :)

Having a tough time on #4, i assume "4. On a neutral structure being consumed by the sands." is the 3/4 ring structure? because its neutral and mostly buried? but ive been over every nook and cranny over the last hour and half of the interior. I just cant find it anywhere. Can I get another hint? I also went over the buried structure opposite side of the map but I couldnt find it anywhere over there either and i went over it twice.

Edit: i must have looked at it at least 3 times before i "saw it" god i love this EE hunt
Thank you for this amazing map

Numbers 4 and 5 can be quite mean indeed! I really tucked those away especially well. I’m glad to hear you completed the hunt! Thanks for your kind words Felix.
