    A lot of people have had trouble with this in the past. The method I use spawns the skull 90% of the time. So this is what I do:

    - The Storm, Normal difficulty
    - Get to the part where you hear "Kilo 23, this is Forward Unto Dawn, I need a Sit-Rep commander".
    - Drive the Warthog slowly till you see Ghosts.
    - Allow your team to kill a Ghost or two, but don't allow them to shoot the anti-air wraith.
    - Get out of the Warthog and melee the wraith from behind till its destroyed.
    - Beside the dead wraith will be a high, round object.
    - Park your Warthog on the highest point touching the round object.
    - Jump from ontop of your Warthog to reach the top of the object.
    - Remember to crouch jump (Jump then hold crouch button to get onto ledge)
    - Claim the skull

    - If this didn't work, restart the mission and try again. Do not try again from a previous checkpoint. Its not a big deal having to restart the missions because you can get from the start of the mission to the skull in 2 minutes.

    Chameleon1977This is another achievement made easier with the acrophobia skull. As soon as you're out in the open area, you can fly directly to the structure. It took around 10 seconds of waiting and looking around before the skull spawned for me

    EarthboundXYeah the Acrophobia skull works, almost didn't think it did, took around 20 seconds or so for it to spawn for me.

    The following skull can be found in the video below, and must be done on normal or higher difficulty. The timestamp for its exact location can be found directly underneath.

    Mission: The Storm - Skull (Catch) In the part where you come out into an open area to fight anti-air Wraiths, do not damage any Wraiths. Simply drive out and go past the central wall. On the other side you’ll see a short, round raised structure. You need to jump onto your vehicle to jump up onto it, where you’ll find the skull resting. This one starts at 01:55 in the video.
