How to unlock the Skyhook Shot achievement in Halo Infinite - Definitive Guide

I've got another strategy to add to the already existing guides:

General info: at the moment the achievement can only be obtained by using your grappling hook on a wasp - banshees won't give you the achievement. They changed that in a recent update. This achievement is now also obtainable by grappling onto a banshee.

Map: highpower (big team battle playlist) - stockpile (not sure if important) - eagle team spawn side (it's possible to do from cobra team's spawn but requires a lot more luck)

Right after the game starts exit the base on the left side and follow that path until you reach some sort of hole in the ground. Loop around the hole on the left side - jump a little gap and enter the corridor next to the bulldog/heatwave spawn. You'll find the grapplehook a couple of steps into the corridor - pick it up and keep going. Upon exiting the corridor you'll find the active camo upgrade - swap it for your grapplehook, activate the camo and remember to pick up the grapplehook again. Keep following the path and spot the enemy team's landing pad on the left side of their base. There is a container next to it and behind that container is a little ledge in the cliff that you can stand on - that's where you're going to hide (make sure to switch weapon and look around from time to time or you might be booted for inactivity). Now sit there crouched until the wasp spawns around the 13 minute mark - wait for someone to jump in then grapple it right away for your achievement.

IMPORTANT: you only need to press the button to use your equipment (cn_RB for standard controls), the boarding animation happens automatically. In fact if you shoot while grappling you will cancel the animation. *thanks to 'exactor it' for reminding me to add this in the comments

Note: the active camo spawn can be an overshield spawn in some matches - I don't know if it's gamemode based or completely random - fyi I had the camo spawn playing a stockpile match.

2nd Note: if you're spawning on cobra team's side then the active camo will most likely run out before you reach your hiding spot - if you manage to reach the spot though you're far less likely to be spotted. There is a container to the left of eagle team's landing pad - you can hide there with the wasp in sight



Good luck!

The Video starts right after leaving the base following the left side path

This is exactly how I did it, sat next to their wasp in hiding and grapplejacked the second an enemy got in it.

Wish I could give you more thumbs up, was struggling to get the other solutions to work but got it this way first time. As an added bonus the poor guy on the receiving end was fuming, so happy to have got his Wasp only for it to be taken away moments later angrylaugh

This worked first attempt. Maybe good to add that you only press RB (your equipment button) and not X to board. Grappling onto a vehicle always boards automatically.

Im beginning to think this can only be done in BTB only. There is a banshee and a grapplehook on the map Behemoth and I grappled the enemy banshee twice for no achievement. The medal did not pop and I didn't hold down the RB button. Unless someone can prove me wrong, BTB only

I would also like to note that I successfully grapplejacked a banshee in the new fiesta event and it didn't give it to me either, so maybe stick to grappling wasps in Big Team just to be safe.

Funny fact: if an ally use the grapple on a enemy vehicle but in the same time you steal the enemy vehicle the achievement will be unlock anyway. This is how I unlock it (really lucky I know)

Dec 16, 2021: I can also confirm it doesn't work against Banshees as I just did it and the achievement didn't unlock.

Tamb0 was probably on crack when he/she did it and mistook a Wasp for a Banshee.

Edit: Just jacked a Wasp on BTB - CTF and got the achievement. Got the Grapple and just hid until a Wasp spawned and waited for them to come to the base.

Amazing solution. Don't even waste your time attempting it another way. Just kept joining BTB matches and backing out until I got Hightower. Took a few games to get used to what I was supposed to do and got it on my second or third game actively going for this.

This is a great solution showing exactly how to do it. I got it my first time attempting it properly using this exact method. First time a wasp spawned no one noticed and one of our team blew it up. Waited for the next wasp spawn and got it straight away. It’s a shame there aren’t achievement solution awards!

I got this achievement today by simply jacking a Banshee in team slayer on Behemoth. For some reason it gave me a grapple jack and windshield wiper medal. I did not use the grappleshot. The achievement is super broken.

The active camo doesn't spawn there anymore. It'll spawn on the otherside and this side has Overshield so it's harder now

Over shield and Active camo flip spawns sometimes. Regardless with the knowledge of the spawns for the hooks and a little luck you'll get it at time point for sure. Nice thing about big team battle is the size of the map and number of people can work to your advantage to sneak around unnoticed. Lots of the time it just depends on the game and who is on both teams.

I’m so heated. The achievement states just a flying vehicle and I just finally grapple jacked a banshee and I was so pissed when I didn’t get the achievement. So I’m assuming it’s a bug that it can only be done on a wasp!?

They need to change it to grapplejacking ANY enemy vehicle. Restricting it to flying vehicles is just dumb, let alone only the wasp with it currently broken. This will likely be one of the last 2 or 3 achs I ever get, if I get it at all.

Thank fuck. Got this in BTB CTF on Deadlock. Only one wasp spawned which seems a little lopsided, but thankfully it was focused on my teammate and flew up over the hill just in front of me WHILE I happened to have the grapple. Very very very luck based achievement unless you can get OPs way to work, but the few matches I got on that map the enemy team swept the area around the wasp spawn before they got into it so I couldn't get the hide and grapple strategy to work.

I actually got this in fiesta on Launch Site. I noticed a wasp by the loading docks and in my next life I spawned with a grapple shot. I hid behind some crates and within ten seconds an enemy got into the wasp, so I got very lucky. Then, right after that, someone grapplejacked me!

Great guide. This is 100% the best way to get this until there's a boosting method. Obviously the only issue is a) getting the map to appear and b) getting the right starting spawn. I got it first try once I had those two perfect.

Great guide. I got the map, grabbed the hook and just ran around for the flying vehicle since it was already spawned. Grapple hooked from a decent ways away. As others have stated, you don’t need to press X. Once you’re hooked, let the animation play out.

Pure right place, right time on Highpower. I had grabbed the Grapple and immediately saw an enemy hijack a Wasp from a teammate just as he was launching nearby. I grapple-jacked it myself before it was 10 feet off the ground.

By Gilbert Prime on 13 Jan 2022 05:05
Excellent method. Thank you.
First time, enemy never went to the wasp and after a while I wasn't paying attention and enemy flew off before I grappled.
Second time, I vigilantly watched the radar, grappled as soon as wasp started to fly, and achievement popped. (Also, I hit the d-pad a lot so I could see the wasp outline sitting there.)

The current Yappening event is great for this. People go for splatters with the banshee. There's so many long-range power weapons, hovering and shooting = getting wrecked by one of the many anti-air-capable weapons everyone has. Only takes a few sniper shots to kill you, and odds are at least one person has a sniper at all times, and people don't ration power weapons at all in this mode/they'll burn a clip of sniper ammo on a banshee instead of getting 2-4 kills.

Swooping in quick and getting out ASAP is the only way to effectively kill with the banshee/there's a banshee at ground level in front of you at least every other game, on the right map. Was able to get 3 hookjacks over the course of getting all 10 event rewards, by happening to have a hookshot + a banshee going for splatter overkills on capture points in Total Control. Just pay a bit of attention to trying to grab a hookshot off the ground if you don't spawn with it to maximize chances.

Also, consider losing a good thing - the lower your MMR the more likely people won't jump out after noticing you hooked them. The game bases MMR on win/loss not your individual contribution. A losing streak = yay lol

I am not good at making guides nor am I good at explanation but I was getting frustrated on trying to do this until I found a way that can makes things a bit easier. What I did was first grab the grappling hook, wait till the Wasp to spawn on my side of a BTB game and grab it right away. I wait until I see the enemy have their flying vehicle and then I flight straight to them. They will most likely be shooting you so go above him, get out of your flying vehicle and then use your grappling hook on his vehicle. I hope this helps someone cause this was super frustrating for me.

Edit: So you have to hijack a Wasp to get the achievement. If you hijack a banshee then it won’t count. Didn’t know this when I wrote the guide so my deepest apologies.

EDIT 2: The map is Highpower, there is a grappling hook that always spawns through the tunnel on either the left or right side of the map depending on which side you start on. There is a lift that takes you to a high point in the middle of the map. Next to the high point there is a ledge you can jump on. Go through the little doorway that leads you through the tunnel. The grappling hook should be on your left. The Wasp always spawns near the team base.

This worked for me first try. CTF on Highpower, got the grappleshot and waited for the wasp to spawn. Hopped in and flew over to the enemy base straight away. Lucky the other wasp was slightly distracted and I came in from above. Simply jumped out and grappled on, just held down the button and the achievement unlocked straight away.

After grappling do you press X or LB for the achievement? I hit X but it didn't pop, others have said hit LB
0
0
By Sigma Lykos on 20 Nov 2021 17:39
LB is to use the grapple, you have to hold X to hijack.
As mentioned above, this isn't true. When you use the grapple hook on an enemy vehicle, you will hijack it without having to hold X. In fact, I think the achievement does not pop if you hold X.

By Beefboi1824 on 21 Nov 2021 09:01
Can confirm that holding X does not work. Got it on my 2nd attempt by just pressing RB and it hijacks automatically. Should pop as soon as the hijack animation is done.

Grapplejacking now is stupid. They just keep getting out of the wasp so the grapple stops and jump back in.

I grappled 4 times on the same guy on the 1 attempt and he just did that over and over until it got low enough I died cause I was out of bounds...

It didnt unlock for me on the banshee. hooked an enemy banshee, took it, didnt pop up when i was flying it. Looks like it needs to be a wasp?

It sucks because the banshee spawns on Behemoth in Quick Play CTF, and I feel like it's a lot easier to grapplejack in that scenario because people tend not to fly super high on this map with the banshee. Like Shadow, I did it a couple times and was disappointed that I didn't get the achievement. Thanks for clarifying that it has to be the wasp.

Yes got it finally 47 done still 'three'to go of which only 1 is really viable. My tactic was playing that 'dump 5 cores into your base' thing on high power and just camp near the wasp spawn after getting the grapple. Since in this game mode you dont really switch spawns so being close to the enemy base doenst despawn enemies that could go for the wasp.

For the base near the waterfall i camp right next to the wasp behind the containers, dont forget to crouch. Here it worked if i hadnt missed my grapple shot....... This is the easiest to do because you just have to shoot, the wasp is already in range of the grapple.

At the other base i waited at the rocks that lead to the cave( where theres a grapple) and just run and shoot as soon as you see someone running to the wasp, here i got it pretty easy. but you have to time it better since you have to make a quick run for it. I tried it couple more times and for some reason got it like 5 times this way in a 2 hours playing after trying the whole week with no succes....
Hope this helps, good luck all!

My buddy and I were both able to get this after I proposed the idea of just waiting out the opponent's Wasp spawn. Videos of our attempts are included below.

REQUIREMENTS:
MAP: Highpower (this is available in Big Team Battle)
OBJECTIVE: Anything works, but Slayer may be the hardest to get this with
TEAM: You want to be on the team that has the lower cliff-side spawn.
POWER-UPS: Grapple Shot

DESCRIPTION/GUIDE:
The idea is, once you spawn in, make a bee-line to one of the Grapple Shot spawns. (Location Screenshots Below)
If you missed out on the one at your base, you can either go for the other spawn, or just wait for the first one to respawn. Sooner is definitely better than later for this, as later could involve having to divide attention between getting the pick-up and fending off your opponents.

Once you have the Grapple Shot, get yourself over to the other side of the map to the hiding spot.
This is best done with a vehicle. I honestly prefer the mongoose. While you don't really have any defenses, you're less likely to get a lot of attention. Having a friend to ride with you helps as well, as they can act as a distraction while you hop off and get into the hiding spot.

Once hiding, be sure to crouch down, so that any movement you make isn't picked up on your opponents' radars.
Be sure to remember what button you have your ability set to, the default is cn_RB.
The average Big Team Battle on this map has 3 opportunities for the Wasp to spawn.
You just need to wait for one of these, and hope an opponent sees it and wants to hop in sooner than later.
As soon as they hop in, with your crosshairs pointed at the wasp, hit your ability button and take it from them.

DISCLAIMER:
As more and more people happen upon this solution, the harder this is going to get, as there will be players that check behind the boxes before boarding the Wasp.
This may also be something that 343i will want to dissuade/fix and they may block off this hiding spot.
This solution requires camping and not adequately supporting your team, so others may frown upon you for doing this, but this is just simply a method I thought up and wanted to share. I fully apologize for anyone who is a victim of this solution, I'd be pissed if it happened to me.

Big Team Battle mode or Behemoth map in Quick Play/Ranked playlists.
If you look just to the right of your minimap in game it will tell you where you are in the level. The capitilized locations I've notated below are actual spots in the map, so keep looking around (or marking spots using cn_up until you find the spot I mention.

Grappleshot locations:
Deadlock - in the Cave
Fragmentation - basement of Canyon Base & Cliff Base, 3rd/4th spawn at Wreckage & Broken Ring (each of those is on either side of the Center Passage)
Highpower - far bottom left of Tower Base on the rock path, 2nd spawn at Overlook directly in front of Waterfall Base, 3rd spawn is up high in Cave which is mid-left from Waterfall Base/mid-right from Tower Base
Behemoth - heading into the basement of North and South Base

Wait until you see an enemy in a flying vehicle (FYI, may only work on Wasps, not Banshees). The Grappleshot has a limited range so it may be best to get on a cliff/hill and wait for the vehicle to get close.
With default controls, press cn_RB to zoom to it and hop in to boot them out.

You could also hop in your own flying vehicle, wait until you see an enemy in one, then fly above them, hop out of yours, and grapplejack theirs.

At the time of writing this, there is a way of getting this achievement that I find easier than other methods. If you play Fiesta, there is always a random chance you will spawn with a grappling hook, and you will have a much higher chance of finding one from other dead players. Both of the maps Launch Site and Behemoth can spawn flying vehicles. The maps are smaller which should increase your chances of being able to grapple, and I find the games go by quicker than Big Team Battle.

Think this solution is being overlooked tbh. With Fiesta now a permanent playlist, it'll be far easier to get this there than BTB imo. Smaller teams/maps, still working on mine but Live Fire seems better than the sand map because it's got lower ceilings.

Just wanted to add that I find this way easier. I got this randomly spawning with a grappling hook and just seeing a wasp flying around. I was just planning Fiesta for fun, wasn't even going for it specifically.

Not just spawning with one because a lot of players spawn in with them there a usually a few on the ground after a fight, I picked one up just before the clip starts

The achievement unlocks as the grapplejack medal came up Shadowclast playing Halo Infinite

Having done over 30 Fiesta matches this week for the Weekly Challenges, there wasn't a single game where an enemy player got into a Wasp. Whether it's Fiesta or BTB, this is more luck than skill.

This is how I landed this pesky achievement. Fiesta and RNG of the right map, spawn of banshee/wasp, me getting the grapple, and an enemy flying all at right time. Got it in my quest to finish a battle pass.

This is how i got it. Fiesta on Launch Site. The map really bottlenecks the wasp, its just a matter of getting the equipment and the enemy getting the Wasp.

To unlock this achievement, start a BIG TEAM BATTLE game, get a grappling hook, and use it to capture an enemy flying vehicle. The Highpower map is particularly suited to achieve this. Be careful, the grappling hook has a very limited range, wait until you are close enough to the enemy before attacking. Here is a video to help you.

To get this Achievement you must Grapplejack an enemy Wasp aircraft.

A Grapplejack is when you board any vehicle using the grappling hook.

Grapplejacking a Banshee does not work for this Achievement, which is why I said earlier to focus on Wasps & this Achievement can be unlocked in a Big Team Battle “BTB” match.

While you can do this on a variety of maps, I found this to be easiest on Dead Lock as the Grapple always spawns in the cave and there are a ton of vehicles on the map.

I simply put a few rounds towards the enemy banshee to bait it to get close to me and then used the grapple to highjack the enemy vehicle.
