Talk:Katana

false info
hey, the katana DOES NOT require all skulls, i had the katana for months and i only got the last silver skull (IWHBYD) a week ago, thus, 13 skulls wont get you the katana, so go achievement busting for it today! GroverA 125 14:32, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

Merge or not?
I decided to merge them because the Hayabusa article already includes this sword thingy. One thing which I don't know is that: Is this sword available for all armor variants or only those that include part of the Hayabusa Armor? Forgive me for not knowing much about halo 3, though.

 * Against Per above --Sp art an- itchy11jr  CommCSVThe Hayabusa armor has nothing to do with the sword. You unlock the Hayabusa armor by FINDING all of the skulls. The sword is "achieved" by gaining 1,000 points or 100% of the Achievements. The sword will work with other armor other than the Hayabusa. So I don't see how it even applies. Maybe this belongs on the armor permutations page if any.


 * Against P03 James 19:54, 6 October 2007 (UTC) CommCSV Second merging this article with armor permutations or achievements article.


 * For: The Katana is its own body armor permutation. However, it is the Hayabusa body armor with a katana strapped across the back. I'd say that that is enough of a connection to merit it being in the Hayabusa article. -- Couchpotato99   (talk)   (contribs)  19:09, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Reasoning
Isn't there a reason why they have that Sumari Sword on their backs? ΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ 11:56, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Capitalization?
Throughout the article (and really, throughout Halopedia), the "k" in katana is capitalized? I am wondering if that should be done. It is the name of the sword, but not a proper noun. XRoadToDawnX 14:02, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Katana Defense Bonus?
I was online and Fighting with some guys, and it seemed that the people with katanas were better able to survive my melee attack, just a curiousity and wondering if this happened to anyone else, or am I jsut imagining it it has no effect on melee defence at all.

Well, It Worked For Me!
Wow, the Katana/Security DID unlock for me when I got 1000+ GS. I didn't get the original 49, either. I'm going to edit this. 96.245.0.220 16:27, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

2nd entry (Guy who did he original one.) Well it DID NOT for me. To say that it does unlock all the time is wrong, as is to say that it doesn't. Clearly results are skewed on this.

3RD: Didn't work for me either. I beat it on legendary and my GS went to 1010. Dammit bungie.

new achievments and the katana
i got 970 points for the orginal achievments then got 1000 from the new achievments and got the katana and security. i got another new achievment and lost it. Does anyone know if I can get it back or if there is another requriment other than getting the old achievments.

Get the old requirements i say. Sith Venator

Its stated in the article that you need at least 49 achievments I have exactly 49(combination of new and old) and I still dont have it I doubt the accuracy of that statment in the article

Hey, wow i got mostly all old achievements and a few new achievements i still have a few old one's left, But i have 49 achievements over 100 gamescore through the halo 3 game all skulls, and yet i don't have the katana or security. When u go to change your armour to it what would the katana be under or called. Or do i have to get all the old achievements, anyone know please?

The Katana will be under your body armor and it will be called Katana just keep scrolling until you reach it.

Katana
I got the katana and my gamerscore is 945 and I only have 48 achievements. There must be something else.
