==Summary==
==Summary==
The icon of the Mythic Map Packs is an alternate version of the difficulty icon known as [[Mythic (difficulty)|Mythic]]. The knives are replaced with [[Battle Rifle]]s and the [[Mythic Skull]] replaces the [[Sangheili|Elite]] Skull. It is to be noted that Mythic has been known as a non-existent difficulty above [[Legendary]], though [[Bungie]] has mentioned it several times on [[Bungie.net]].
