Halo 5: Guardians - Intel and Skulls: Mission 5: Unconfirmed

Halo 5: Guardians is now available for all Xbox One owners to enjoy, and with its release comes collectibles. The game has two forms of collectibles to obtain: Intel and Skulls. Intel is scattered throughout each mission in Halo 5, while skulls will only be found for those who are committed to investigating every inch of each level in order to obtain.

We’ve gone through the trouble of documenting the locations of all of the Intel and Skulls in every mission in Halo 5. If you want to hunt the truth, you’re going to want to obtain all of these collectibles.


Mission 5: Unconfirmed

Intel 1/7: The History of Meridian 3/6

When Spartan Locke and Fireteam Osiris land, head to the left near the yellow and orange containers. In the corner of the room, there will be a small rubble of stone. Activate the radio to pick up this piece of Intel.

Intel 2/7: Message from Apogee Station 1/3

Prior to heading into the mining area, head over to the right side of the room to find a couple of chairs and lockers. The Intel will be sitting at the edge of one of the chairs.

Intel 3/7: Brill Operator’s Personal Log 2/2

After your first battle with Prometheans, head up first and second set of steps. At the top of the second set, head to the right and continue down this path until you see some chairs in the corner. This piece of Intel will be sitting on one of the chairs in the corner.

Intel 4/7: Brill Operator’s Personal Log 1/2

Once you’ve battled another set of Prometheans, you’re going to have to enter a Pelican to proceed. Before you do, climb onto it and walk to the rear of the aircraft. This piece of Intel is sitting on the rear of the Pelican.

Intel 5/7: Message From Apogee Station 2/3

After you defeat a group of Promethean Snipers, head up the cliff and stay to the left to the structure outside of the excavation area. The structure will have a ventilation duct that can be destroyed with a Spartan Charge. Inside of that area is where this piece of Intel is located.

Blind Skull:

Once you enter the excavation area, look up to see a bunch of pipes. Jump up the left platform, turn around and jump onto the higher platforms where the pipes are. Follow this path by crouching down, and then turn left to enter a small rocky area. The Blind Skull is located in the middle of this room.

Intel 6/7: The History of Meridian 4/6

As you enter the excavation area, stick to the right of the level to find some large pipes hanging on the side of a platform. Follow the pipe that heads upwards as it’ll lead to a platform with a radio off in the corner among some rubble.

Intel 7/7: Message From Apogee Station 3/3

This last piece of Intel is located right after you take a catwalk over a river of lava. Once you cross the river, don’t go into the large hole just yet. Instead, head to the left up a flight of stairs. Follow that path where you’ll find this last piece of Intel sitting on a pile of crates.
