Learn how to capture Fob Charlie in Halo Infinite. This guide covers defeating Banished forces, including Grunts, Jackals, Elites, and Brute Chieftains, and claiming the UNSC Audio Log.
Alright, so you're looking to snag Fob Charlie in Halo Infinite? It's a pretty standard Forward Operating Base capture, but there are a few things to keep in mind. First off, you'll want to have the main mission 'Excavation Site' initiated. Once that's done, just head northeast from Fob Echo, and you'll find Charlie waiting for you.
Walkthrough
- 1Head to Fob Charlie: Make your way northeast from Fob Echo. You'll see the base marked on your map.
- 2Clear the Area: As soon as you get close, you'll notice a bunch of Banished enemies. We're talking Grunts, Jackals, Elites, and even some Brutes. Because there are so many, your best bet is to hang back and use a long-range weapon like the BR75 to pick them off from a distance. Don't rush in!
- 3Take Down the Chieftain: Once you've dealt with the regular troops, a Brute Chieftain will show up. This guy's got a decent health pool, so you'll need to be persistent. You can either unload on him with a CQS48 Bulldog, or if you've got the Voltaic upgrade for your Grappleshot, you can use that to stun him temporarily. That'll give you a breather and an opening to deal some damage.
- 4Capture the Base: After the Chieftain is down, head to the control panel right in the middle of the platform. Interact with it to capture the Fob.
- 5Grab the Audio Log: Don't forget to grab the UNSC Audio Log! It'll be in a crate nearby, usually close to the control panel.
Tips
- Use a long-range weapon like the BR75 to thin out the initial wave of enemies from a safe distance.
- If you have the Voltaic Grappleshot upgrade, use it on the Brute Chieftain to stun him for an easier takedown.
- Always check for nearby collectibles like Audio Logs after capturing a base.
