Skyjack: Difference between revisions

'''Skyjack''' ('''Skyjacker''' in ''[[Halo 3]]'') is a medal awarded in ''Halo 3'', ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', ''[[Halo 4]]'' and ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'' [[multiplayer]] (as well as [[campaign]] in ''Reach'') for hijacking an aircraft ([[Banshee]], [[Hornet]] or [[Falcon]]). In ''Halo 3'' and ''Reach'' it is represented by an eagle on a gold shield atop a bronze cross. In ''Halo 4'' the eagle is atop a blue circle and a grey cross turned 45 degrees. In ''Halo 5: Guardians'' the eagle is on a yellow roadsign. As this medal is attained, a message appears on the screen, saying "You skyjacked player's name".

A good tactic to get this medal is to throw a [[Power Drain]], or to shoot an overcharged [[Plasma Pistol]] bolt or [[M319 Individual Grenade Launcher|EMP grenade]] at an incoming aircraft. The aircraft will be stunned, leaving the player an opportunity to hijack it.

The Skyjack medal is the counterpart of the [[Hijack Medal]], in which you board a land-based vehicle.

==Trivia==

*Earning this medal in the ''Halo: Reach'' campaign unlocks the [[Banshees, Fast and Low]] achievement.

*Although the medal is included in the list of ''Halo: Reach'' [[Firefight]] medals, the Banshees in Firefight cannot be hijacked and therefore the medal cannot be awarded.
