    Got this one legit because TEAM Headhunter makes it almost trivial. I remember the OG achievement being a pain because it had to be done in 8 player FFA. This time around, just queue in social games for Asset Denial and only have Halo Reach selected. Got it in my first game because 4v4 Headhunter makes it considerably easier. As long as someone on your team hits it, you get the achievement. Stay with your team if you have a lot of skulls or protect the guy on your team who does.

    i Bright xNo idea what's going. I have 8 controllers, 2 Xboxes, and had no issues using regular FFA to get a bunch of other achievements by myself. Also had no problem getting team based achievements by searching at the same time.

    But when I try to search in Reach FFA with only Asset Denial selected, with 8 controllers, it just searches forever and never finds a game, same with when I try and find a team game with just 4 🤷🏾‍♂️😡

    The Storm WarI've played quite a bit of Team Headhunter and got a bunch of 10 skulls, but the game never gave me a Skullamanjaro. One game of Reach FFA Asset Denial I got Headhunter and managed to get it. Popped instantly then. It does require the skull to be earned.

    if it's glitched for you just like it was for me, make sure you do the following...

    1 - press cn_start on halo mcc and go into "manage game and add-ons"
    2 - go down to "saved data" and click on your profile
    3 - make sure you only use the option "delete from console" !! NOT DELETE FROM EVERYWHERE !!
    4 - load the game up and when it's trying to synch your cloud save, cancel it
    5 - go into a headhunter game, play for the objective until you get a medal (I got it usually around 10-15 skulls) or just boost it, whatever is your way of choice
    6 - enjoy your cheevo

    after that, just close the game, re-open it and when it's trying to synch back, let it do it's thing.

    just wanted to add my 2 cents to it, because I was trying for days to get this damn cheevo, got multiple skullamanjaros and it never popped... did this and got it first try on 2 accounts.

    hope this helps toast

    DireJlightningMy friend had spent many months trying to get this achievement to pop and he was growing extremely frustrated when nothing seemed to work. One I found your solution and told him to try it, the achievement popped when we boosted it. My friend wanted me to let you know that he's extremely grateful for this solution and that it's a shame 343 Industries can't even bother telling people to try this out to fixed bugged achievements!

    This achievement is only available through FFA playlists as of the July 20, 2023 update. Any suggestions prior to that date likely won't work as the makeup of this achievement has changed since then.

    After capturing 10 skulls multiple times in 4v4 Social Games and still not getting the achievement or medal, I used the method Sp4rrkz listed in his solution for clearing local saved data from your console (again, NOT from everywhere). This also did not work for me. That could still be an issue for you, but ensure you follow the explanation below first before clearing your local saved data.

    Explanation:
    Since the update, the Skullamanjaro medal is strictly tied to "instant wins" which is the legacy setup. Instant wins can be enabled in custom games through the "specific game options," but in matchmaking, it is only preset to be ON for the FFA playlists, not team games such as 4v4. To get the achievement, you need to get the medal. This achievement is for matchmade games, not custom. Therefore, Social Games FFA is your only option.

    You can still do this by searching a custom matchmade lobby. I searched:
    • Social Games
    • 8 Player (FAA)
    • Halo: Reach
    • Asset Denial
    The playlist is almost entirely dried up so you will need a boosting partner with 4 controllers. Two parties of 4 players (3 guests each) made matching up easier, but you could use more people if you don't have 4 controllers.

    This only took us a few tries, but there was one random player searching so we adjusted our server regions found in "cn_start Options & Career > Settings > cn_RB Network" to narrow the matchmaking field even more. That may not be needed for you. Server regions cannot be adjusted while actively searching for a game. Change from the lobby, then search, if needed.

    Hope that helps!
