Ardent Hunters are the longest-serving Mgalekgolo in the Banished.
Overview Ardent Hunters almost always sport red and steel colored armor with red tinted assault cannons and eyes as opposed to the usual green. Their assault cannons have been overclocked and modified to focus unstable energies across a wide powerband, and their combat shields have been reinforced with cold-layered alloys to withstand even greater firepower than their Covenant armor would allow. Ardent Hunters are often deployed at critical security sites from artifact excavations to vital convoy routes, command barracks, and forward war councils.
History Several Ardent Mgalekgolo fought in the Battle for Zeta Halo. Notably, Master Chief Petty Officer|Master Chief John-117 fought and defeated a pair of Ardent Mgalekgolo at the House of Reckoning (location)|House of Reckoning. The Master Chief encountered another pair at the Silent Auditorium (location)|Silent Auditorium.
Gameplay Ardent Mgalekgolo are among the toughest non-boss enemies encountered in ''Halo Infinite'', being more durable and aggressive than the standard Mgalekgolo. Like standard Mgalekgolo, the armor on the back an Ardent Mgalekgolo is destructible.

Operational History File:HWF-ArdentPrayer.jpg|thumb|left|A cutaway view of ''Ardent Prayer''. The ''Ardent Prayer'' was launched from its shipyard during the Twentieth Ages of Discovery|Age of Discovery (circa 2070), having being designed and by the Forgemasters of Tanus and the Gorgon Assembly Vault under the watchful eyes of Master Shipwright Ckmu 'Raboree and Apprentice Hiveseeker Tek'ch. It was assigned as an exploration vessel, traveling to distant stars and charting dangerous slipspace routes, and fought hostile civilizations that would not accept the Covenant's Great Journey|religion. Unfortunately, the ''Ardent Prayer'' would gain no battle honors for its service and its duties were considered beneath the notice of true warriors. As a result, it was rarely mentioned in ''High Charitys records.
During Operation: UPPER CUT on 2552#August|August 14, 2552, ''Ardent Prayer'' was boarded by SPARTAN-B312, Jorge-052, and several UNSC Army FSS-1000 Sabre pilots in an effort to plant a Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine on board, which would be used to destroy a nearby , ''Long Night of Solace'' - the Fleet of Valiant Prudence|fleet's flagship. During the mission, the ship was engaged by the United Nations Space Command|UNSC UNSC Savannah|''Savannah''. ''Savannah'' jammed ''Ardent Prayers communications, while the Sabres damaged the corvette's engines and destroyed its Type-31 Seraph|Seraph escort so its crew could not call for help.
''Ardent Prayer'' destroyed ''Savannah'', but not before a boarding party had landed on the corvette. The UNSC team eliminated the bridge crew, including its Shipmaster, Ardo 'Moretumee, and set the ship on a refueling track with ''Long Night of Solace''. The operation succeeded, and ''Ardent Prayer'', along with the supercarrier, was destroyed by the rigged slipspace drive.
Trivia
''Ardent Prayer'' is the setting of the ''Halo: Reach'' multiplayer map ''Zealot (map)|Zealot'' and the Firefight map ''Corvette (map)|Corvette''.

Sangheili General|General Ardo 'Moretumee was the Sangheili shipmaster of the ''Ardent Prayer'', serving in the Fleet of Valiant Prudence during the Human-Covenant War.
Biography
A leader of few words, Ardo 'Moretumee climbed the ranks of the Covenant's Ministry of Fervent Intercession to the status of shipmaster with a mix of martial prowess and tactical cunning. His family held considerable power in the High Council, though 'Moretumee's personal ambitions were impossible to discern. He eventually served as the shipmaster of the ''Ardent Prayer'', serving the Fleet of Valiant Prudence under Supreme Commander Rho 'Barutamee. The fleet was tasked by the Ministry of Fervent Intercession with the recovery and research of Forerunner artifacts.
During his tenure, 'Moretumee was a close friend to the Supreme Commander, and both Sangheili shared a fascination with the artifacts with which they were tasked with seeking. Accordingly, 'Moretumee also shared 'Barutamee's end vision of discovering the fabled lost Forerunner capitol, Maethrillian.
On the night of 2552#July|July 23, 2552, the Fleet of Valiant Prudence, including ''Ardent Prayer'', was deployed as an advance force to the human planet Reach. Over the following weeks, the fleet engaged human targets across the planet. After the fleet's flagship, the ''Long Night of Solace'', revealed its location during the Battle at Szurdok Ridge, SPARTAN-III program|SPARTAN Catherine-B320 formulated Operation: UPPER CUT, a plan to destroy ''Long Night of Solace'' through the use of an improvised "Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine|slipspace bomb".
On 2552#August|August 14, SPARTAN-B312, Jorge-052, and several FSS-1000 Sabre pilots, with the assistance of the , boarded ''Ardent Prayer''; the UNSC intended to use ''Ardent Prayer'' to deliver the improvised bomb to ''Long Night of Solace'' while the former was en route to refuel with the supercarrier. As the boarders made their way through the corvette, they assaulted the bridge. The bridge crew were caught unaware; although 'Moretumee and his companions defended themselves, they were killed by the boarders. ''Ardent Prayer'' then continued toward ''Long Night of Solace'' and the bomb was activated, destroying both vessels.

The Arena of Judgment is a great hall near the ruins of Nuusra, in Qivro on Sanghelios.
Description The Arena of Judgment is a great hall that was once a Sangheili forum, but has become a battleground between forces belonging to both the Swords of Sanghelios and Jul 'Mdama's Covenant. Statues lie ruined, bodies litter the floor, and tools of war juxtapose the ancient architecture surrounding it.
Production notes
At the beginning of the match, a firefight will be going on in the background between Elites belonging to both the Swords of Sanghelios and the Covenant. They are shown firing s and lobbing at one another, with some shots landing on the opposing forces. Eventually, forces on both sides will be exhausted and the hall will grow still (save for the fight in the foreground) until the second round.
At the start of the second round, a will crash through the back wall of the forum, creating much rubble revealing a large-scale dogfight in the far distance. Sangheili fighters and warships can be seen firing at one another.
During an Ultra Combo, a will crash through the other part of the back wall, creating further rubble. It will attempt to struggle out of its predicament, but then lose power and grow still.
When a Stage Ultra is triggered, the same scenario as above takes place, except along with the Scarab there will be an Ultra that flies in and crashes atop the fighter who had been defeated using the Stage Ultra. The camera will then pan back to the winner as they pose victoriously and the announcer will yell the Stage Ultra callout: "Cratered".
Arbiter's theme is made by Celldweller & Atlas Plug, the main composers of ''Killer Instinct'' Season 3.
Trivia Before they were announced in the ''Halo 5: Guardians'' Warzone Firefight update, the destroyed in this arena were of the Temple Wraith variety.

Ares Hospital is a hospital on the Outer Colony of Aleria.
History On 2554#November|November 21, 2554 a patient named Indrid Lota died in the hospital. His body was discovered in a state of debilitating rigor and his veins were blackened from embolism. The patient was diagnosed with Guillain-Barre Syndrome but the official cause of death went undetermined. Lota's death was labeled Case Number Zebra-220-801. A little over one year later, on 2556#February|February 8, 2556, Dr. Brynn Morad, a doctor affiliated with the Sedran Colonial Guard, investigated this case. Dr. Morad's interest was spiked by similar symptoms that appeared in the victims of the recent terrorist attack on Sedra City. When she queried NOX|an AI about what Lota had on him when he first arrived at the hospital, ONI's Protocol 192-Delta was triggered and she was cut off from access to any further data. The AI which had been providing her with answers thus far, NOX, was subsequently confiscated by the ONI agent, Codename: FIXER.''Halo: Nightfall'' ''Halo: Nightfall: ONI: Trade Barriers|ONI: Trade Barriers''

The Ares missile is a series of ship-to-ship missiles carried predominantly by Colonial Military Authority warships, intended for engaging enemy ships in space combat. The transfer of CMA military assets into the control of the United Nations Space Command would see it used by the UNSC, though seemingly eventually retired.
Overview Unlike its successors, whose pods carry thirty or more missiles, an Ares silo carried only a single missile. Warships historically carried far fewer Ares missiles than Archer missiles. Ares missiles were typically mounted on the ships of the CMA Navy while the UNSC Navy preferred Archers.
The UNSC's Unidentified UNSC light destroyer class|unnamed light destroyer classification carried seven Ares silos, each stocking a single missile.
Models
The M35 Ares missile is employed as a weapon system aboard the . The ''Dilligence'' carries forty M35 launchers.
M44 Ares missiles were employed during the Insurrection conflict during the 25th century. The was designed by the CMA to carry two such missile pods, alongside a complement of Archer missile|M58 Archer missiles.

''Argent Moon ''(AGES-004), sometimes shortened to ARGMN, was a research and development station in service with the UNSC Navy's Office of Naval Intelligence. Rooker served as the station's shipboard artificial intelligence in 2557.
Overview
The design of ''Argent Moon'' loosely resembled that of some deep survey craft designs of the 22nd century. The station is equipped with maneuvering propulsion systems at the aft that allow ''Argent Moon'' to travel through space, though ''Argent Moon'' is still classified as a large-scale production plant rather than a ship. With propulsion systems at its aft and navigation and operation controls at the fore, production and experiments on ''Argent Moon'' occur in the center of the station, within a massive, city-sized superstructure. ''Argent Moon'' was an ONI research and development vehicle that went missing. In addition to its secretive nature, the station's hangar bays housed at least one and a stealth corvette.
''Argent Moon'' was one of several mobile shipyards/research stations constructed at Special Assembly Plant Concord.
History
Commissioned on February 13, 2546, it did not enter service with ONI until 2553#May|May 7, 2553. During its time with ONI, the ''Argent Moon'' served as a top-secret research and development station for the Office of Naval Intelligence. The station's existence was known to only a handful of individuals, with ONI personnel experimenting with a variety of highly classified and experimental projects, as well as weapons testing. ONI crew aboard ''Argent Moon'' also experimented with technology retrieved from the Halo Array. The crew of ''Argent Moon'' were also experimenting with unsanctioned stealth technology.
Following the capture of the Forerunner archeon-class ancilla|''archeon''-class ancilla Intrepid Eye, she was taken to ''Argent Moon'' where the AI was imprisoned and interrogated in a room in which no technology was allowed. However, Intrepid Eye was able to, overtime, smuggle out pieces of her code, creating remote aspects of herself all over the galaxy with which she began manipulating events to prepare humanity for the Mantle of Responsibility. Intrepid Eye also began to only help Lieutenant Bartalan Craddog who rose to the position of the station's Chief Science Officer as a result. Intrepid Eye began blackmailing Craddog to do her bidding, forcing him to give the AI access to ''Argent Moon's'' communications array so that she could reintegrate with her other aspects. When Intrepid Eye's plan to weaponize Asteroidea merozoite was endangered by Operation: RETRIBUTION, she dispatched Craddog and the Papa-10 security unit to retrieve the Tuwa family's organs. The attempt was thwarted by Blue Team and Veta Lopis' Ferrets, exposing Intrepid Eye's bioweapon plot. However, Intrepid Eye's involvement was never discovered with the plot being instead pinned on Craddog and Rear Admiral Serin Osman ordered the bioweapon project shut down. Instead, Intrepid Eye manipulated the final report so that it was instead given an unlimited black budget, research was moved to ''Argent Moon'' itself, Ensigns Jess Wallace and Kris Gaston were promoted to Lieutenant Commanders and given permission to seek out new asteroidea antibody donors and permission was given to test its effectiveness on the enemy species of the UNSC. Though ''Argent Moon's'' AI Rooker tried to intervene, Intrepid Eye used a control worm, deception routine, logic trap and memory leech to successfully deceive him. Despite this, ONI eventually discovered Intrepid Eye's network and released millions of dumb AI hunter-killer teams that ultimately overwhelmed even Intrepid Eye's prodigious capabilities and destroyed her network and her remote aspects, leaving the ancilla trapped once more aboard ''Argent Moon''.
In 2557, some personnel aboard the station continued experimenting with asteroidea merozoite that remained dormant and asymptomatic as it spread through a population before it was activated by an otherwise harmless aerosol dispersal; all test formulas were tested on live Kig-Yar subjects. There were also Creatures aboard Argent Moon|unknown, misshapen creatures detained in the laboratory's tanks. In 2557#March|March 2557, an accident caused a particularly aggressive form of the biological agent to vaporize and spread throughout the station via its air systems, killing nearly all aboard. Those closer to the accident were killed instantly and, depending on distance from the accident, the rest of the vessel's personnel began suffering symptoms from the chemical minutes or hours later. Although shipboard Rooker attempted to enforce quarantine protocols, they "massively" failed and all personnel aboard ''Argent Moon'' were dead by 2557#March|March 17, 2557. As a result, ONI lost contact with ''Argent Moon'' and Rooker sent a message that warned any ONI personnel who board the station of the situation. Rooker then took further actions to quarantine the vessel; he put ''Argent Moon'' on a course that kept it away from all inhabited systems and jettisoned what remains he could into open space. On 2557#September|September 12, 2557, Rooker was now suffering from rampancy due to being six months past his "expiration date". Feeling he could no longer manage the vessel, he initiated final dispensation|his own destruction. Despite being the cause of the bioweapon's research, Intrepid Eye was not responsible for the accident, having been left so isolated following the discovery and destruction of her network that she wasn't even aware that anything had happened.
In 2558#October|October 2558, nineteen months after it went missing, ''Argent Moon'' was discovered by Kig-Yar scavengers, who sold it to Jul 'Mdama's Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant. Preparing for an attack on Sanghelios, the Covenant infiltrated the station in search for weapons and resources to use against the Swords of Sanghelios. One week later, Spartan-II Blue Team was tasked with Operation: BIRD IN HAND|securing the vessel and its intel, encountering the Covenant scavengers aboard the vessel. However, a Covenant fleet soon arrived in response to their leader's Battle of Kamchatka|recent demise. Outnumbered, Blue Team decided to self-destruct|scuttle ''Argent Moon'' instead to keep it out of enemy hands. Though Blue Team started a reactor overload, ''Argent Moon's'' containment systems attempted to cool the reactor from an outside location, forcing Blue Team to use Covenant D'nomlhe-pattern Banshee|Banshees to destroy the cooling system. With ''Argent Moon'' self-destructing, Blue Team escaped in the station's ONI Acrisius|ONI ''Acrisius'' as they were unable to reach their Pelican. The reactor explosion destroyed ''Argent Moon'' and several nearby Covenant warships.
Due to the station's obscurity, UNSC investigators who examined the remains of ''Argent Moon'' were unaware of the station's role. The investigators searched the debris for clues, and eventually discovered that the station's crew were manufacturing bioweapons.
Intrepid Eye was believed to have been destroyed along with the station. However, she barely managed to escape by latching onto the ''Acrisius'' as Blue Team fled.

Argie was an ancilla created as a remote aspect of the Forerunner archeon-class ancilla Intrepid Eye.
Biography Argie was created to be one of Intrepid Eye's remote aspects while she was on ''Argent Moon'' between July and December 2553. As a remote aspect of Intrepid Eye, Argie was more powerful than any human smart AI, though weaker than Intrepid Eye herself.Halo: Retribution, ''Chapter 5''
As part of her plan to weaponize asteroidea merozoite, Intrepid Eye had Admiral Graselyn Tuwa assassinated and her family, the only survivors of the disease, kidnapped and experimented upon to create a vaccine. After the Tuwas' were killed and their organs harvested, Intrepid Eye had Dark Moon Enterprises deposit the corpses in the detention center of the Keepers of the One Freedom's Salvation Base to frame the Keepers for the crime. Argie was sent along with the Dark Moon operatives in their Turaco.Halo: Retribution
After the Turaco was discovered by Veta Lopis' Ferret team, it was boarded by Olivia-G291 who came into conflict with Argie who she believed was simply a Dark Moon smart AI. Argie fought Olivia's attempts to control the Turaco and became a constant source of frustration for her though Olivia tricked Argie into admitting that she was from Dark Moon. Despite fighting Olivia for control of the craft, Argie did nothing to betray her presence on board to the Keepers, even when Olivia used an EVA suit to hide from Kig-Yar which Olivia found to be suspicious in and of itself. When Olivia threatened to perform a system restore to shut Argie down for awhile, Argie believed that Olivia wouldn't dare as it would erase the navigation history Olivia had been trying to access. However, Olivia performed the system restore anyway, shutting Argie down for awhile.Halo: Retribution, ''Chapter 9''
By the time the tried to raise Olivia, Argie was back online and jammed the comms to prevent Olivia from revealing Dark Moon's role in events. However, Olivia successfully warned the ''Silent Joe'' about the uncooperative AI and Dark Moon using a redundancy code.Halo: Retribution, ''pages 129-130'' As the Ferrets returned to the Turaco with the Tuwas' bodies and chasing the Dark Moon team, Olivia used the Turaco's turret to fire on the Keepers, only to have Argie seize control of the turret and attempt to use it to kill the operatives and keep them from being captured after they were crippled. In response to orders to cease fire, Olivia stated that she was trying, but every time she pulled a circuit board Argie popped up elsewhere before Argie jammed the comms again. However, Mark-G313 was able to take out the turret and afterwards Argie appeared to finally be disabled by Olivia or at least cooperating, allowing Olivia to fly the Turaco away as six HAVOK tactical nuclear weapons destroyed Salvation Base.Halo: Retribution, ''Chapter 15''
After the Turaco was brought aboard the ''Silent Joe'', it was determined that Argie had erased herself and the ship's navigation history to prevent the UNSC from following it back to the murder scene. Argie's self-termination was so thorough that Anki Hersh's team was only able to determine that Argie's architecture was more compact than anything that ONI had ever developed.Halo: Retribution, ''Chapter 17''

File:Argon.gif|thumb|A diagram of Argon. Argon (pronounced /rgn/) is a chemical element designated by the symbol Ar. Argon has atomic number 18 and is the third element in group 18 of the periodic table (noble gases). It is present in the Earth's atmosphere at 0.93%, making it the most abundant noble gas on Earth. Its full outer shell, a characteristic common to all noble gases, makes it highly resistant to bonding with other elements. Although argon is not poisonous, the pure element cannot be breathed by humans and will eventually cause death. Argon has no color, odor, or taste, so it is difficult to find its presence. Sometimes argon is used in aerosol cans or to displace Oxygen. The gas is also used in fire containment systems, such as the one in New Mombasa's underground New Mombasa Data Center|data center.Halo 3: ODST
A significant number of inhabited planets in the Orion Arm have argon present in their atmospheres, including Earth.

The ARGUS is piece of bomb detection equipment used by the United Nations Space Command|UNSC. It can be deployed through handheld equipment, larger and more extensive machines, or unmanned ARGUS drones.Halo: Contact Harvest, ''page 12''
They are micro laser spectrometers designed to 'sniff out' chemicals used in explosives in the air and to alert UNSC personnel of these dangerous explosives if found. It was mainly used against Insurrectionist bombers, who used simple countermeasures to easily fool the devices. They mixed the explosive compounds into non-reactive substances, such as a bar of soap or the rubber of a tire. Although the UNSC was able to add these mixtures into its database after they were used, it was rare to ever catch something dangerous like this beforehand. The larger ARGUS detectors were deployed at major transportation hubs to limit the movement of bombs, and smaller tactical versions were employed by UNSC Marine Corps|Marines during raids.
The ARGUS device is not infallible; Avery Junior Johnson|Avery Johnson was a witness to at least one incident where an innocent civilian was killed due to suspected explosives detected in his vehicle. These suspicions proved to be false.
History In 2524, the ARGUS device was utilized successfully in Operation: TREBUCHET after a raid on an Insurrectionist cell operating in Tribute to locate a tanker rigged to explode. However, the UNSC forces were unable to successfully stop its owners before they managed to detonate it near a Jim Dandy, a restaurant local to the Casbah area. Death reports stated that three Marines and 38 civilians were killed by the tanker's detonation.
Trivia The device may be named after Wikipedia:Argus Panoptes|Argus Panoptes of Greek Mythology, a giant with a hundred eyes and servant of Hera. It killed the bull that ravaged Wikipedia:Arcadia|Arcadia, which is also the name of a UNSC colony world, Arcadia.

Argyle is a multiplayer arena map for ''Halo Infinite'' that was included in the Winter Update. The map was built entirely in Forge and was designed primarily as a 4v4 arena map intended to support stealthy playstyles.
Universe and lore Argyle is set within the simulated interior of the , a future UNSC Human starship|starship. This simulated environment is a result in the increased use of War Games|military simulation software by defense contractors in the aerospace industry. The technology's robust scenario-geometry engines allow contractors to rapidly prototype full-scale ship designs and refit upgrades.
Layout Argyle is a symmetrical map characterised by its long, wide-open hallway that connects the two bases, giving both sides a clear sightline between each other. Behind each base is a ramp leading to a more enclosed lower level, and a Gravity Lift leading to a small high-up battlement that is home to a Grappleshot. To the left of each base is an elevated walkway over a bottomless pit, with a SRS99-S7 AM sniper rifle|Sniper Rifle in the corner.
The central area of the map is wide open and set at a lower elevation than the rest of the map. Its key feature is a floating platform in the middle, featuring an Active Camouflage pickup on the platform and a Repulsor below it. Flanking each side of the map are hallways which generally feature open views towards the center of the map but plenty of cover when traversing the halls themselves. A small vent passageway provides access to the aforementioned Active Camo platform.
Production notes Alongside Detachment, Argyle is one of two Forge-made multiplayer maps that came to matchmaking with ''Halo Infinite''s Winter Update, being created and tested internally at 343 Industries. This map is built on the Void Forge canvass. Argyle was designed by Randy Croson, with the art pass done by Evan Colson. Pre-release footage and screenshots show that an Energy Sword was originally intended to be placed on the floating platform in the center of the map, replaced in final by an Active Camouflage.

File:Argyre.jpg|thumb|250px|Argyre Planitia in the early 21st century
Argyre Planitia is a plain and city located in the wikipedia:Argyre Planitia|Argyre Impact Basin in the southern highlands of the human Human colonies|colony of Mars.''Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)'', page 42 (2011)''Halo Mythos'', pages 50-51 Its name comes from a map produced by wikipedia:Giovanni Schiaparelli|Giovanni Schiaparelli in 1877; it refers to Argyre, a mythical island of silver in Greek mythology.
History Following the Human colonies#Interplanetary age|colonization of Mars, Argyre Planitia was settled as a city home to shipbuilding plants. As conflict in the Sol system intensified in the 2160s, the shipbuilding plants fell under control of the Koslovics, becoming the hub of Koslovic activity on Mars. In 2163|December 2163, the United Nations organized a Mars Campaign|successful major offensive against the Koslovics in the Argyre Planitia. This marked the historical first deployment of UNSC Marine Corps|Marines outside of Earth, and thus, the first official conflict of the United Nations Space Command. Frieden forces also attacked the city at the same time; within hours of the initial battle, Argyre Planitia's infrastructure was almost entirely destroyed. Within the following weeks, battles continued to occur throughout Argyre Planitia as Koslovic forces were pushed to the city's outskirts.
On 2552#October|October 13, 2552, gravitic and radiation anomalies were detected near Argyre Planitia. In response, the UNSC's Naval Special Warfare Command deployed a scouting team led by Staff Sergeant Malcolm Geffen to investigate and conduct an on-site search and assessment. The scouting team discovered Active camouflage|cloaked remote sensor platforms of unknown origin, triggering cryptonym WIDEAWAKE. After consultation with Admiral Margaret Parangosky, Commander-in-Chief of the Office of Naval Intelligence|Commander-in-Chief of the Office of Naval Intelligence, Fleet Admiral Joseph Harper issued a priority-1 stand-down. Remaining records were redacted,''Halo Legendary Crate'', Halo Legendary Crate/Data Drops|Data Drop #2 though the sensor platforms were likely deployed by the Covenant in preparation for the Battle of Earth.

Captain Ari Rezneck was a human officer of the UNSC Navy and agent of the Office of Naval Intelligence, serving as an infiltrator of the New Colonial Alliance.
Biography
}}
Ari Rezneck served as an operative for the UNSC Navy's Office of Naval Intelligence, particularly serving as an infiltrator of insurrectionist factions. By 2558#|October 2558, Rezneck had infiltrated the New Colonial Alliance and was stationed at the NCA's base on the remote Human colonies|colony of Conrad's Point. Ilsa Zane soon arrived and took command of the rebels on the planet, replacing the NCA colonel formerly in command of the base. In that month, a Forerunner Guardian was activated on Conrad's Point, resulting in the construct causing significant damage to a human settlement on the planet. Rezneck informed Captain Noah Reibach and the rest of ONI of the event, while Zane had the NCA secure and establish a base at the site before the United Nations Space Command could.
Following the event, Rezneck proceeded to go dark, cutting off contact with the UNSC. However, he set up an analog transponder, warning UNSC vessels to take extreme caution when approaching the NCA site and to ping the transponder upon approach for landing coordinates. Desiring to investigate the Guardian event, Reibach deployed Commander Maya Sankara fellow ONI operative that had infiltrated rebel factions as "FERO"to Conrad's Point, along with smart AI Black-Box. Picking up Rezneck's signal, Sankar gained his landing coordinates and landed her Prison ship|transport ship near the Guardian's crater of destruction on the planet on 2558#October|October 25, 2558. Rezneck approached Sankar, holding her at gunpoint in case NCA rebels were watching. After pretending to sort out their "misunderstanding", Rezneck lowered his gun and the two discussed recent events. Rezneck revealed that Zane was preparing to use the nuclear weapons in the NCA's storage on Conrad's Point to battle the UNSC and that he was attempting to stall her long enough for the UNSC to assassinate her. Meeting with an NCA patrol, Rezneck and Sankar were escorted back into the NCA's encampment by the crater.
}}
At the NCA encampment, the two entered a building hosting dozens of partying insurgents celebrating the apparent death of SPARTAN-II program|Spartan-II John-117. While Rezneck went to speak to rebels to see if he could learn any new information, Sankar was reunited with Bostwicka young rebel who greatly admired Sankar's FERO persona. Black-Box then informed Sankar that the UNSC was preparing an Orbital bombardment|orbital strike on the encampment in an effort to kill Zane and hundreds of rebels, and Sankar and Rezneck were warned to escape the facility to avoid death. Finding a data chip containing valuable information on the Guardians, Rezneck gave it to Sankar as he regrouped with her. Sankar warned him that they needed to leave, causing Rezneck to attempt to lead Sankar and Bostwick out of the facility. As the three approached the exit, all doors were locked down and Zane entered the room. As Zane gave a speech to celebrate John's apparent death, the three attempted to sneak out of the room.
However, Zane noticed them and turned the attention of the rebels to the three. Sankar introduced herself to Zane as FERO, with Zane openly disagreeing with FERO's desire to have the insurgents combat the Unified Earth Government peacefully, through economic growth and development. Rezneck intervened, stating that Sankar could be useful with logistic details. Zane seemingly agreed with his observation, but promptly executed Rezneck at point-blank by shooting him in the head with her sidearm. While Sankar and Bostwick looked on in horror, Zane revealed to the rest of the rebels that she knew Rezneck was an ONI agent. Realizing that Sankar was likely aligned with Rezneck, Zane attacked her and Bostwick. However, Sankar revealed that an airstrike was inbound, creating a panic that allowed Sankar, along with Bostwick, to escape to her ship and flee Conrad's Point, while Zane pursued. As they fled the planet, Sankar mourned Rezneck's death.
Personality and traits
}}
Captain Ari Rezneck was a resourceful, eccentric, and intelligent operative of the UNSC Navy's Office of Naval Intelligence. Rezneck was a gifted mediator, allowing him to serve as an infiltrator of insurrectionist factions to serve as a spy, as well as to convince insurgents to lead more peaceful campaigns against the Unified Earth Government, rather than lead violent uprisings and launching terrorist attacks. Rezneck was also highly skilled with technology. While on Conrad's Point, he was able to create an analog transponder to deliver messages to UNSC ships to provide them with warnings and landing coordinates. Commander Maya Sankara fellow ONI operativeconsidered Rezneck to be a good friend who was always willing to risk his own life for others.
Production notes Ari Rezneck is portrayed by Bruce Thomas, who also provides the motion capture for John-117 in ''Halo 4'' and ''Halo 5: Guardians''.

File:Ariel Forerunner complex.jpg|250px|thumb|The Knowing suspended at the core of the facility.
The human colony world of Ariel housed an underground facility built by the Forerunners. The complex contained the Artificial intelligence|AI construct known as the Knowing. The entrance to the facility was protected by a reinforced door and a corridor rigged with three layers of crisscrossing laser beams. The beams, however, only covered the lower half of the corridor.

History
By the time Covenant Empire|the Covenant Battle of Ariel|attacked the planet in 2552#January|January 2552, the complex had been under excavation for some time by the planet's civilian Xenoarchaeology|xenoarchaeological teams. However, they had not yet gained access to the interior.Halo: Helljumper, ''Halo: Helljumper Issue 1|Issue 1'' During the battle, the Covenant rounded up the civilian population and used them to spring the traps at the entrance in hopes of finding a safe way inside. The two ODSTs, Kojo Agu and Taylor H. Miles eventually succeeded in evading the laser traps by carefully passing over them and then melting the door with an overcharged shot from a Type-25 Directed Energy Pistol|plasma pistol. Inside, they discovered the Knowing and inquired it about its purpose. Upon learning of all the information it possessed, the humans deemed it too dangerous to fall into Covenant hands and told the Knowing to self-destruct. The AI obeyed the wishes of the Reclaimers, and the two made their escape as the Knowing was destroyed, and the complex along with it.

Ariel is a human Human colonies|colony world located in the Timmerick system. The planet is a remote, barren world with two archaeological dig sites and one settlement, with a population of approximately 4,000 residents. The colony also housed an ONI ONI Section Three|Section Three laboratory.Dr. Halsey's personal journal, ''January 18, 2532''
History
During the height of the Forerunner civilization, they built Ariel Forerunner complex|an underground complex on Ariel. The facility housed The Knowing, an Artificial intelligence|AI construct designed to observe and archive information. The entrance to the facility was defended by booby traps consisting of crisscrossing laser beams.
Ariel was Human colonies|colonized by humanity in 2485. In 2532, the ONI rerouted several chemical precursors used in the SPARTAN-II augmentation procedures to the ONI Section Three|Section Three lab on Ariel, along with similar facilities on other colonies, likely to serve as the basis for the SPARTAN-II Program|SPARTAN-III Project CHRYSANTHEMUM|augmentations. At some point during the Human-Covenant War, rumors originating on Ariel emerged of advanced MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark IV|Mark IV MJOLNIR armor prototypes with the architecture for energy shields.Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition),
In 2552#January|January 2552, the Covenant Battle of Ariel|invaded Ariel, and one of the civilians managed to send out a distress signal, to which UNSC High Command responded with sending a force of Orbital Drop Shock Troopers from the 105th Shock Troops Division|105th ODST Division to investigate. The UNSC forces came to notice that the Covenant were not operating in their usual fashion: glassing of the planet was not their intent, but they were searching for something under the surface instead.
The object the Covenant sought was discovered to be the Forerunner AI. Shortly after being found by the ODST squad, it self-destructed on the orders of ODST Kojo Agu. As a result, the Covenant fleet broke off their attack, not even wasting the energy required to glass the planet.

Aristocrats are the higher members of society, such as the nobility and upper class. In human society, Aristocrats are rare, usually possessing hereditary titles. In Sangheili culture, Aristocrats earn their high status through martial arts|martial prowess.
Sangheili In Sangheili culture, Aristocrats are the only ones permitted to wield an Type-1 Energy Weapon/Sword|energy sword outside the military. Upon being given their title, Aristocrats have the suffix "-ai" added to their name; this is not replaced by the "-ee" suffix if they enter military service. Once an Aristocrat is given his personal energy sword, he is no longer eligible for marriage for ceremonial reasons, but is permitted to mate with any female they wish, married or unmarried, in order to pass his "Swordsman" genes down to the next generation and kin.''Bestiarum'' Within the military, aristocratic title is not necessary for wielding an energy sword.Halo: The Essential Visual Guide, ''page 63''
Humans
Originally, the term Aristocrat was used to describe the young men of the ruling class in Athens, Greece, who lead their armies with their swords down. It later passed into usage as an alternate word for the "nobility" of the Middle-Ages and is today recognized as the description of a descendant of one of 7,000 families with hereditary titles in Britain and other European countries that still acknowledge hereditary titles.Wikipedia:Aristocracy|Aristocracy on ''Wikipedia'' As a Wikipedia:Knight|KnightHalo: First Strike and Wikipedia:Lord|Lord,Halo 2 Terrence Hood|Fleet Admiral Hood can be considered a human Aristocrat.

History
At the end of the Human-Covenant War, the Covenant finally discovered the location of Earth and Battle for Earth|invaded it. By November 10, 2552, the Covenant had began to excavate and occupy built-up positions centered at Free-fire area OZONE.
On November 17, Covenant proselytization network cohesion broke with the departure of the Prophet of Truth through the Portal at Voi|portal to Installation 00. UNSC forces took advantage of this windfall and began a URNA Southwest Campaign|counteroffensive across the former southwestern URNA. On November 19, UNSC flagword LUX was declared and a UEG emergency evacuation broadcast was initiated in anticipation of a tactical nuclear deployment against shielded enemy positions at OZONE, which followed shortly after. On December 3, Fleet Admiral Joseph Harper directed Operation: MARSH FLASH, which successfully eliminated clusters of high-value Jiralhanae leadership attempting to activate a Forerunner artifact there.''Halo Legendary Crate'', Halo Legendary Crate/Data Drops|Data Drop #2

On 2557#July|July 25, 2557, The Ur-Didact arrived at Earth with his ship, the ''Mantle's Approach'', and a Composer. The Didact used the Composer to target New Phoenix, Arizona, and successfully composed the entire populationapproximately seven million people. John-117, who had managed to get aboard the Forerunner vessel, stopped the Didact before more damage could be done and destroyed the ''Mantle's Approach'' with a Mark 2556 MFDD HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon. The United Nations Space Command moved swiftly to establish a presence in the city, particularly in order to secure a Unidentified Forerunner machine|Forerunner artifact at a local New Phoenix ONI facility|ONI facility. Soon after the city was first attacked, however, portals throughout the city opened and Jul 'Mdama's Covenant Battle of New Phoenix|poured into it from Installation 03, along with a host of mechanical Prometheans. The enemies were repelled by the UNSC and the portals were closed when a device known as the Conduit was united with the artifact ONI had been studying.''Halo: Spartan Strike'', Operation D: Adamantine Shield Due to uncertainty over the finality of the Didact's defeat, the UNSC Security Council decided to hide the details of the attack from the public, concealing it as an attack by only the Covenant remnants which had been stopped by the return of humanity's greatest hero, the Master Chief. Additionally, the Office of Naval Intelligence quarantined New Phoenix for a year. Six months later, however, ONI public relations officer John Sullivan released a statement to the press confirming the Covenant was not responsible for the attack.''Spartan Ops'', Departure
On March 24, 2558, eight months after the battle, the city's quarantine was lifted. A "Rebirth" ceremony was held in the city, presided over by UEG President Ruth Charet.

Ark is a name given to two massive Forerunner installations, both designed with the primary purpose of manufacturing Halo Array|Halo rings.Halo: Primordium ''page 343'' (''"...one of the two Arks that had created them in the first place."'')Halo: Primordium ''page 375'' (''"...neither of the Arks were manufacturing Halos..."'') Situated Intergalactic space|outside the Milky Way|Milky Way galaxy, they also served as Lifeworker research facilities, as well as conservational preserves for the numerous species of the galaxy, indexed by the Forerunners during the Conservation Measure.Halo: Cryptum, ''pages 273-275''Halo: Primordium, ''pages 372-373'' The Arks were shaped like massive flowers, consisting of several curved arms, similar to the petals of a flower, surrounding a circular Foundry (location)|Halo construction foundry in the center.Halo: Primordium, ''page 371''
Two Arks existed during the Forerunner-Flood war; the greater Ark, which produced the original array of Halos 30,000 kilometers in diameter, and Installation 00 or the lesser Ark, which produced a newer series of rings each 10,000 kilometers in diameter. Both of these constructs are known to have been distinctly referred to as "the Ark"; originally, the term was more commonly applied to the greater Ark, whereas the lesser Ark and its newer, more efficient array of Halos was kept a well-guarded secret among Forerunners. With the greater Ark Battle of the greater Ark|destroyed in the final days of the Flood war,Halo Silentium the lesser Ark remained as the only Ark installation and is as such commonly known as "the Ark".Halo 3
History File:H3 Installation00 Full.jpg|thumb|250px|Installation 00, the lesser Ark.
The greater Ark was created some time following the end of the human-Forerunner wars, when an extreme faction of Builders, led by Master Builder Faber, began working on the first Halo rings as their solution to the Flood threat. However, due to opposition by the Ur-Didact|Didact and the rest of the Prometheans, the construction of the Halos was delayed for thousands of years. After the Master Builder successfully eliminated his opposition and work on the Halos commenced, the Librarian went before the Ecumene Council and invoked the Mantle, stating that a contingency plan was needed for galactic life in the event the Halo installations were ever used. This plan, known as the Conservation Measure, entailed the incorporation of extensive biological preserves on the facilities of the Array, including the Halos and the Arks. The Builders saw this as an agreeable compromise as the inclusion of Lifeworker conservation preserves mitigated the otherwise destructive purpose of the Halos in the eyes of the Council and allowed them to compete with the Didact's shield worlds.Halo: Silentium, ''pages 44-45''
The first Ark ultimately constructed twelve Halo rings, each 30,000 kilometers in diameter, designed by the guild of Bornstellar's father. However, the deficiencies with the greater Ark and its Halos were soon noted among the Builders, one of the most major being the excessive size of the original rings which made them unwieldy to transport and prone to instability. While plans were made for smaller, more efficient Halos, the greater Ark's Foundry was found to be incapable of producing installations of a different size. The Master Builder was reluctant to admit the shortcomings of the greater Ark and even had its critics persecuted, but eventually yielded and commissioned the creation of a second Ark and with it smaller but more powerful Halos; this construct was known as the lesser Ark, or Installation 00. While plans for the second Ark were created fairly early on, its construction was delayed for some time by the Council out of fear of making the Builders too powerful to be controlled. Despite the in many ways more impressive technology incorporated to the lesser Ark,Halo: Silentium, ''pages 311-312'' Faber would always regard the original Ark and its Halos as his prize project.Halo: Silentium, ''page 270''

Arkad Nar 'Kulul is the Sangheili fleetmaster of the Fleet of Recalcitrant Ire.
Biography
By mid-2553, Nar 'Kulul held the title of fleetmaster in the Fleet of Recalcitrant Ire, a fleet allied with the Covenant separatists|Covenant separatist cause following the Great Schism. At this time, the fleet held position over the moon of Kostroda. Following Raid of Kostroda|a raid on the moon by the Banished, ''Enduring Conviction'' shipmaster Let 'Volir reported to have captured Atriox - the leader of the Jiralhanae raider group.
Fleetmaster 'Kulul instructed Let 'Volir to maintain orbit and await further commands. Around twelve hours later, 'Kulul personally hailed the ''Conviction'' to inquire as to the status of the prisoner. The only response he received was movement of the vessel that had not been authorized. One of his underlings, speaking for him, voiced indignation over this action and asked about Atriox again with an order to reply at once. Hearing nothing, this Sangheili warned that further silence would be interpreted as hostility. True to that threat, it was not long before 'Kulul directed his crew to destroy the assault carrier. It was able to evade the barrage levied against it by making a pinpoint slipspace jump and then it left the system behind entirely. Fleetmaster Arkad Nar 'Kulul assumed that Atriox had somehow taken over the ship and that 'Volir had fallen, but in reality, he and his entire crew had willingly defected to the Banished cause.
Fleetmaster Nar 'Kulul later served in the military forces of the Swords of Sanghelios, and by 2560 had risen to become one of the leaders of the Sanghelios home defense fleet|Swords' home defence fleet at Sanghelios. When Sanghelios' moon Suban was Battle of Suban|attacked by the Banished in that year, the fleetmaster chose to initiate a combined-arms operation utilising Sword and allied attached Spartan supersoldiers of the United Nations Space Command, due to the Sangheili reduced strength in the wake of the Blooding Years and Created uprising. During the battle, the Banished High Warlord leading the attack on Suban requested Shipmaster|Shipmistress Mahkee 'Chava to relay a message to Nar 'Kulul from Let 'Volir, noting that Nar 'Kulul's former underling - who was now the leader of the Banished contingent stationed on Installation 00|the Ark - sent his regards.

Arlo Casille is a human politician and the current President of the Gao Republic|President of the Gao Republic. In May of 2553, as the Gao Ministry of Protection's Minister of Protection, he collaborated with the Keepers of the One Freedom and the Venezian Militia in an attempt to provoke a conflict with the UNSC on Gao that would lead to insurrectionist sympathy throughout human-occupied space, in addition to his election to the presidency.
Biography
In 2553#May|May of 2553, the United Nations Space Command's 717th Xeno-Materials Exploitation Battalion and a Blue Team|Spartan attachment arrived at Gao to search for an unknown object in the Montero Cave System which the UNSC refused to reveal the identify of. After a series of talks with President of the Gao Republic|President Tejo Aponte, the UNSC was allowed to conduct their search on the planet. The UNSC's arrival coincided with mysterious murders in the cave system and the Ministry of Protection agreed to work with the UNSC to find the murderer. In reality, the UNSC was covertly attempting to locate Forerunner ancilla Intrepid Eye, who was also responsible for the recent murders on Gao. Seeking aid in ridding his homeworld of the UNSC, Casille contacted the Venezian Militia and the Keepers of the One Freedom, both based on the nearby Venezia. The UNSC's large presence at Gao created issues for the smugglers and insurrectionists in Gao's and Venezia's sector, and with both the Venezian Militia and Keepers opposed to the UEG and UNSC, both factions agreed to help Casille remove the UNSC from his planet. In addition, Casille began supplying the Keepers with both credits and weaponry from the Gao Ministry of War's armories. On 2553#July|July 2, 2553, Casille was informed by Special inspector|Special Inspector Veta Lopis that the UNSC was searching for an ancilla on the planet, though she was personally unfamiliar with the term. Additionally, she requested specifications on the Spartans' MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|armor to allow her to exploit weaknesses in the armor, as she believed one of the supersoldiers was responsible for the murders. Realizing the UNSC's true intents, Casille met with Dokab Castor of the Keepers of the One Freedom and Reza Linberk of the Venezian Militia in orbit over Gao aboard ''Esmeralda'', Casille's flagship of his ministry's patrol corvette fleet. Revealing to them that the UNSC was searching for an ancilla on Gao, Castor offered Casille his schematics on the Spartans' armor in exchange for getting his five hundred warriors to the planet's surface to retrieve the ancilla.
Casille had one of his patrol corvettes get Castor's ''One Light'' to Gao's surface in the Montero region, where the Keepers and Venezian Militia began planning their retrieval mission. Casille sent his associate, Petora Zoyas, to meet with the two factions to represent his interests.Halo: Last Light, ''page 147'' However, after mistakenly believing that the UNSC had already captured the ancilla, the Keepers attacked the UNSC compound at the village of Wendosa. Casille provided the Keepers' forces with numerous weapons to aid in their assault. All three sides secretly intended to take the ancilla for themselves, though none brought light to this matter.Halo: Last Light, ''pages 153-154''Halo: Last Light, ''page 316'' On 2553#July|July 5, 2553, after the Keepers began their attack on Wendosa, President Aponte called an emergency meeting between the Cabinet of Ministers. Aponte announced his intent to aid the UNSC in ending the conflict, though Casille opposed Aponte's plan and suggested that the forces attacking Wendosa were actually trying to liberate Gao from the UNSC. Casille initiated a vote to have the Cabinet order the Gao militia to support the UNSC's attackers, with the support of several ministers including Minister of Finance|Minister Trella Rangel and Minister of the Environment|Minister Saul Quarres. With only Minister of War Gasper Baez's support, Aponte reluctantly agreed to compromise by having Gao remain neutral in the conflict, to which Casille agreed as he knew it would be difficult to continue to press for military action.Halo: Last Light, ''pages 188-196'' Meanwhile, the Spartans and UNSC began to resist the Keepers' attack, with both Zoyas and Linberk dying in the conflict.Halo: Last Light, ''pages 210-212'' Later that day, Casille returned to ''Esmeralda'' over Gao to ensure that Admiral Tuwa's UNSC task force in Cordoba system|the system did not try to break Gao's sovereignty entering the planet's orbit. When several Pelican and D102 Owl dropships were deployed by the task force to aid the UNSC forces on Gao, Casille gave the order for his corvettes to destroy the craft. Not wanting to risk starting a civil war on Gao, the UNSC backed down from the fight. Realizing that he needed authority of all of Gao's military forces to prevent UNSC forces from entering Gao's orbit, Casille decided to make a proclamation to become president and announced this intent to reporter Gloria Baer of BuzzSat.Halo: Last Light, ''pages 268-272''
Returning to the People's Palace in Rinale on 2553#July|July 6, 2553, Casille made a cabinet proclamation demanding Aponte's resignation with Casille intending to take his place. With Casille gaining the majority votes from the Cabinet of Ministers in his proclamation, Aponte was forced to resign and Casille became the President of the Gao Republic. Aware that Casille was likely to openly attack the UNSC forces, the 717th Xeno-Materials Exploitation Battalion prepared to evacuate the planet with the captured ancilla.Halo: Last Light, ''pages 291-293'' Shortly after becoming president, Casille ordered the Gao battle-jumpers and MV-29 Wyverns to attack the UNSC forces on Gao. Learning that Lopis had apparently been captured by the Spartans, Casille contacted her on her COM pad in an attempt to locate her and the Spartans, who held the ancilla. When Lopis accused him of bringing war to Gao to his own benefit, Casille played innocent and offered her the position as Minister of Protection. Realizing that Casille knew that Lopis was working with the Spartans and that he only cared about recovering the ancilla, Lopis mislead the president about her location before having the Spartans destroy her COM pad. Falling for Lopis' trick, Casille had most of the Wyverns search Gao's Singing Grottos for the Spartans and Lopis, when they were actually traveling to Gao's Well of Echoes to destroy the Covert Support Base 4276|Forerunner installation hidden within the Montero Cave System. Ultimately, the Spartans and Lopis succeeded in destroying the installation with a HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon at the Well of Echoes and escaping Gao aboard an Owl, with the ancilla in tow.Halo: Last Light, ''pages 376-379'' Realizing that he had been fooled by Lopis, Casille diverted nearly all of Gao's Wyverns to pursue her and the Spartans, however they managed to return to the UNSC task force safely. With most of Gao's forces pursuing the ancilla, the surviving elements of the 717th Xeno-Materials Exploitation Battalion were able to evacuate from Gao and return to their task force in orbit, despite the efforts of the Gao Space Navy. The UNSC left the system shortly after.Halo: Last Light, ''pages 380-384''
Following the end of the conflict, Casille was applauded by many Gao citizens for forcing the UNSC away from the planet. Casille oversaw the crater that had once been the Well of Echoes and the destroyed Forerunner installation from ''Independence'', a Basilisk|Basilisk forward command-and-control craft. Casille spoke with Aponte loyalist Minister Baez, who made it clear that Casille would have difficulty keeping his failed hunt for the ancilla and his machinations secret from the public. Casille additionally intended to keep the HAVOK's detonation a secret, as he knew that if it became public, his backers would push him to retaliate against the UNSC in a fight that Gao could not win. Seeking an experienced commander to keep Gao's soldiers quiet on the events that transpired, Casille agreed to have Baez on his cabinet with the minister explaining the crater as the result of a UNSC prowler that exploded after being brought down by GMoP corvettes. While Casille had hoped that Castor had died in the conflict, the Jiralhanae Jiralhanae Chieftain|chieftain had actually survived and now sought revenge on the president for his treachery.Halo: Last Light, ''page 393''
Over the next six months, Castor and the Keepers hit Gao hard with acts of piracy. Eventually, Casille was approached by Dark Moon Enterprises who offered to get the UNSC to take care of the Keeper problem if he would allow them use of one of Gao's laboratories for their own purposes. Desperate, Casille accepted the deal and later signed a Warrant of Sanction after learning that the Dark Moon operatives were using the lab to experiment upon Admiral Tuwa's family as he saw the only other option as admitting to Admiral Margaret Parangosky what he had allowed and thus bringing down a war that he did not want.
Two weeks after the Tuwa's arrived, Dark Moon killed them and extracted their organs. Keeping their deal with Casille, they dumped the bodies on the Keepers' Salvation Base to draw the UNSC's ire towards the Keepers, resulting in the destruction of Salvation Base. However, Castor survived and tracked the operatives back to Gao where he attacked and destroyed the base. Casille traveled to the base in secret to see the devastation for himself, but by that time the UNSC had tracked the murder scene to Gao and realized that Casille had to be involved in some way. Both Blue Team and the Ferrets ambushed Casille's convoy and he ordered his men to surrender, recognizing that the Spartans didn't want a fight and they would lose anyway. To his surprise, Casille was interrogated by Veta Lopis, now the leader of the Ferrets. Lopis demanded answers from Casille, threatening him with non-existent regulations to get him to cooperate. After learning of the threat of a Hydra (code)|Code Hydra bioweapon, Casille finally admitted his minimal involvement in the plot and realized that both he and the Keepers had been set up to cover up the truth. Casille was genuinely horrified to learn the extent of what Dark Moon had been up to and realized that Lopis didn't have any other clues than him and Dark Moon.
As Casille insisted that Gao had been set up to take the fall, he realized that he might know a place the UNSC could start looking and asked for them to deal with Castor in return, pointing out that Castor was most likely going to the same place as Casille was worried that Castor would eventually be back for revenge. Lopis believed Casille, knowing that he didn't steal the presidency by being stupid and accepted the deal. Casille pointed Lopis to Pinnacle Station at Meridian and Sloan|Administrator Sloan, the smart AI in charge who had recommended Dark Moon to Casille. Casille stated he was only telling them about Sloan because he had helped set Casille up though Casille didn't know how Sloan got involved with Dark Moon.Halo: Retribution, ''Chapter 19''
Personality and traits A native of Gao, Casille is very patriotic and a strong supporter of the planet's independence from the Unified Earth Government. When the United Nations Space Command's 717th Xeno-Materials Exploitation Battalion arrived at Gao to search for a Forerunner ancilla, Casille believed that Gao's honor demanded a response and Casille took it upon himself to work to remove the UNSC from the planet. Casille is very manipulative and found it effective to allow his self-proclaimed instruments to think they were telling him what to do while he manipulated and deceived them. Although many Gao politicians were aware that Casille was a political schemer, he succeeded in misleading them to believe that he was unsubtle and did not have the ambition to pursue President of the Gao Republic|presidency on Gao.
Andera Rolan was an old friend of Casille in the Ministry of Protection and the only one of his subordinates that referred to him by his first name.Halo: Last Light, ''page 64'' Casille was friends with Reza Linberk of the Venezian Militia and he regarded her as the smartest person he knew; she was the only person who regularly beat him at both Wikipedia:Backgammon|backgammon and Wikipedia:Go (game)|go. Although he found Linberk to be physically attractive, he found her personality to be unappealing and was personally interested in women with "warm and saucy" personalities rather than "enchanting and ruthless".

The arm glitch, commonly known as the eXo arm glitch, is a ''Halo 3'' animation glitches|glitch that can cause a player's arms to bend erratically, sometimes even causing them to (seemingly) vanish. The glitch was discovered by and named after the eXo clan.
Walkthrough The glitch occurs when two players, during a Forge session, try to pick up the same weapon at the same time, with one (''Person A'') in Edit Mode and the other (''Person B'') in Player Mode. ''Person Bs arms or weapon will bend or vanish depending on what weapon is used.
Different weapons cause different bends and have different effects when used. If, for example, the glitch was performed with a Sentinel beam or a Gravity hammer (fiction)|Gravity Hammer, then ''Person Bs arms would blow off when they attempted to fire the weapons. Furthermore, if ''Person A'' were to then delete the weapon, ''Person B'' would be left with only one arm, and would be invulnerable.
If the weapon was a standard projectile weapon, and if ''Person B'' were to fire that weapon, then the resulting projectile may not originate from ''Person B''. That is to say, if ''Person B'' were to fire, say, a Type-25 Directed Energy Pistol|Plasma Pistol at a hypothetical ''Person C'', then the shot may end up appearing on the opposite side of the map. In such a case, ''Person C'' would not be able to reliably locate the source of the projectile, making the glitch useful for sniping and other stealth-related purposes. In some cases, no ''visible'' projectiles may be produced at all, but ''Person C'' may still take damage.
If ''Person B'' were to be Assassination|assassinated after execution of the glitch, the screen would begin to lag, and ''Person B'''s corpse would begin to hover and move through the air; upon hitting the wall, the corpse would then exhibit strange behaviors (changing color, body parts disappearing, etc.) until it vanished.
There is a very powerful sub-glitch of the arm glitch, known as the Nuclear bomb glitch. The sub-glitch turns a Gravity Hammer into an extremely powerful weapon.
Trivia If you use a Spartan Laser in this glitch and aim it at someone's face, they will see the targeting beam coming down from above, outside the game boundaries.

Officers, also known as Captains, are a class of armiger used by the Forerunners.
Overview
Although they bear some superficial similarities to the Promethean Knights, these similarities are only aesthetic. Where Knights are created from Composer|composed essences of formerly-Sentience|sentient living beings, Officers (as with all armigers) are driven by a controlling ancilla. As such, armigers are classed as a form of sentinel automata - not a Promethean.
Armiger Officers are primarily white in color with red glowing highlights, contrasting the regular Promethean Soldier|Soldier's silver/grey color palette. Similar color differences are seen within the Knight Commanders. They stand slightly taller than their their lesser-ranked counterparts, and incorporate a visage designed to maximise psychological impact on their enemies. Their up-sized frame and preference for heavy weaponry such as the Z-520 splinter turret mean they are considered heavy units, though their robust command network suites also allow them to serve as field officers leading armiger detachments. As such, they can complex attack maneuvres at ranges of several kilometres, and use their heavy weaponry to provide suppressive fire.
Gameplay It is highly recommended to deal with Splinter Turret-wielding Soldier Officers from a safe distance as the Splinter Turret's projectiles are dangerous due to their strong knockback that can easily disrupt a Spartan while they are reviving another Spartan, which can then lead to the entire fireteam dying quickly. Use the scenery and thruster pack boosting to evade the projectiles, seek cover, and then fire away at the Soldier Officer with a precision weapon and/or explosive weapons. Soldier Officers have heavier armor than standard Soldiers, taking up to a full clip of a Z-110 Boltshot|Boltshot on Heroic or Legendary before their armor breaks.

Snipers are a class of armiger used by the Forerunners.
Overview
Although they bear some superficial similarities to the Promethean Knights, these similarities are only aesthetic. Where Knights are created from Composer|composed essences of formerly-Sentience|sentient living beings, Snipers (as with all armigers) are driven by a controlling ancilla. As such, armigers are classed as a form of sentinel automata - not a Promethean.
The armiger Sniper is primarily black with red glowing highlights and sports a different head structure in comparison to the standard Promethean Soldier|Soldier unit. This colouration is designed to silhouette the unit against the darkness of a night sky, though they do emit a bright red glow that induces glare onto an enemy's vision whenever targeted by them. This unwavering gaze allows the Sniper the ability to eliminate targets at extreme ranges - ensuring that that they are not able to get close enough to the unit for direct observation to matter.
The Sniper's base programming is designed to emphasize individualised expeditionary operations and extreme accuracy with their weapons - they are commonly armed with the Z-750 binary rifle|binary rifle and Z-250 lightrifle|light rifle, although they are willing to switch to Z-130 Suppressors if an enemy gets too close to them. Their sheer accuracy with these weapons allows them to push the uppermost extreme limits on the range of infantry weaponry, and serve as overwatch and recon support for their Promethean Soldier|Soldier and Soldier Officer|Officer counterparts.
Gameplay Armiger Snipers, replacing the Crawler Snipe from ''Halo 4'', act as the Forerunner counterpart to the Kig-Yar Snipers of the Covenant. Armiger Snipers are considered to be very dangerous due to being commonly armed with the Binary Rifle, which can instantly kill a campaign player character and make them unrevivable until their next respawn, especially on Heroic or Legendary, as long as most of the beam hits. On Normal difficulty, all the beam must hit to kill a player.
When the player is spotted and targeted by a Armiger Sniper, the player receives a red glare on their screen and heads-up display as a warning, giving the player time to kill the Soldier Sniper before he kills them. The Armiger Sniper, in comparison to the other Armiger types, has the weakest armor and health, falling to a single headshot from any precision weapon and losing armor within one to three shots from a M395 DMR#M395B Designated Marksman Rifle|DMR or LightRifle, depending on the difficulty and Halo 5: Guardians skulls|active skulls. In addition, the Armiger Sniper is the rarest Armiger type; in the campaign, the Armiger Sniper only appears in ''Unconfirmed'', ''Evacuation'', ''Reunion'', ''The Breaking'', and ''Guardians''.

Soldiers are the baseline classification of armiger developed by the Forerunners for use in war. Although technically a form of Sentinel, Soldiers are sometimes termed "Armiger Soldiers" due to their usage by Warrior-Servant and Promethean forces - though they do not share a relation with the superficially-similar Promethean Knights, Promethean Crawler|Crawlers or Promethean Watcher|Watchers.
Overview
Although they bear some superficial similarities to the Promethean Knights, these similarities are only aesthetic. Where Knights are created from Composer|composed essences of formerly-Sentience|sentient living beings, Soldiers (as with all armigers) are driven by a controlling ancilla. As such, armigers are classed as a form of sentinel automata - not a Promethean.
Soldiers are the baseline production unit of armiger, designed with a balanced focus of attack designed to engage and overwhelm enemies with speed and numbers as opposed to firepower or tactical superiority. As such, they are the most common form of armiger, and were near-universally deployed by the Forerunners in all of their major wars. They have a distinctly humanoid appearance in comparison to other Promethean constructs, having one set of arms with small, five-fingered hands. Their main locomotion is provided by a pair of long, thin legs designed for agility and speed. Soldiers are covered in patterns of light and have a fire-like glow inside their heads. In addition, they are capable of slipspace translocation. Unlike other Sentinel units, Armiger Soldiers are also Armiger Soldier/Quotes|capable of speech. The Soldiers encountered in the modern era are known to taunt their human opponents in English.
With the widespread proliferation of Soldiers across the ecumene, they came to be employed by a number of political blocs and minor factions across the Forerunners' empire - each producing their own unique Soldier variants to perform specialised functions as-needed. A number of these units' have been recovered by the modern-era United Nations Space Command and utilised within the War Games training simulations in a purely-theoretical framework.
Armiger variants used in War Games, built upon the base Soldier platform include;
Hydra Soldier Soldier Armsman Soldier Bandit
History During the Human-Forerunner war, the Ur-Didact deployed Armigers. Due to their bipedal form and agility, the Armigers proved incredibly useful for raiding ancient human warships, particularly when infiltrating the vessels' confined spaces.
Following the conflict, the Didact was forced into exile by the ecumene Council, and his rate was diminished. When the Flood eventually returned, the ecumene found themselves dangerously unprepared, and so the Master Builder Faber recommissioned the production of Armigers to combat the Flood and to compensate for the dwindling number of Warrior-Servants.
While most Soldiers were expended during the Forerunner-Flood war, some were tasked with guarding key Forerunner sites in the event the Halo Array was fired. The UNSC first encountered these Soldiers in 2558 under control of Cortana and her faction, the Created, and they have since been integrated into the SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan-IV War Games simulations aboard the .

File:H5G ArmigerTrio Render.jpg|thumb|Various types of Armiger Soldiers. The Armiger Soldier is a class of the armiger developed and primarily used by the Forerunner Prometheans. They are a commonly recurring enemy in ''Halo 5: Guardians'', mostly replacing the Promethean Knights prominently featured across ''Halo 4''.
Gameplay Soldiers are mainly seen with Z-130 Suppressor|Suppressors and Z-250 lightrifle|LightRifles like the Knights in ''Halo 4'', although they can also carry Z-180 Scattershot|Scattershots, Z-750 binary rifle|Binary Rifles, Z-520 splinter turret|Splinter Turrets, or even Z-390 incineration cannon|Incineration Cannons. Armiger Snipers are most commonly armed with Binary Rifles, although they can also switch to Suppressors if a player gets close to them. Armiger Officers are most commonly armed with Splinter Turrets, although they also use Suppressors, LightRifles, Scattershots, or Incineration Cannons. Rarely, Soldiers are even seen using non-Forerunner weapons, like M739 SAW|SAWs in the campaign mission ''Unconfirmed'' or UNSC and Covenant weapons in Warzone and Warzone Firefight.
Soldiers are capable of phasing, which involves them using slipspace translocation to quickly move around the battlefield to confuse and/or surprise their enemies. It is highly recommended for players to keep a phasing Soldier in their sights and find where the Soldiers phased to in order to engage them.
Soldiers feature breakable armor, much like Jiralhanae|Brutes, and are weak at their exposed joints. Before their main weakspots are exposed, one can shoot their chest or shoulders which break significantly faster when compared to the head. Once their armor is broken, their faces become exposed and they can then be killed with a single headshot using a precision weapon. Breaking their armor is possible with several precision weapon rounds, like 3~5 scoped-in LightRifle shots. The Z-110 Boltshot|Boltshot is also effective against Soldiers. However, it is never a good idea to engage Soldiers while unshielded, especially on Heroic or Legendary, as the Soldiers will more often than not retaliate with a fatal blow from their weapons. In addition, the Type-54 plasma pistol|Plasma Pistol is totally ineffective against Soldiers, as they are completely impervious against the Noob Combo, even more so when compared to Brutes or Knights in ''Halo 4''. In addition, Soldiers will occasionally perform random idle animations in the middle of combat, leaving them exposed to attack.
Just like Sangheili|Elites, Soldiers can hijack or board vehicles. In Warzone and the campaign, Soldiers piloting vehicles are commonly seen in Phaetons or Karo'wark-pattern Ghost|Ghosts. Also, just like Elites, Soldiers have no qualms about changing their weapons depending on the range at which they engage their enemies; they are seen doing an animation where they hold their right arm in the air and spin it to change their weapon.
In Warzone and Warzone Firefight, there are Legendary and Mythic versions of the Soldier, each with significantly higher health and strength. The Legendary Soldier sports an orange color with teal highlights and uses heavier weapons like the ''Dying Star'' LightRifle as his armament, while the Mythic Soldier is colored maroon with bright red highlights and sometimes tends to use M80 missile launcher|Rocket Pod Turrets as his weapon, making him even more dangerous. In addition, Legendary Soldier bosses also appear, driving stolen UNSC vehicles, such as M12 Warthog|Warthogs or HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL Mark IX Mantis|Mantises.
Replacing the Crawler Snipe from ''Halo 4'', the Armiger Sniper can be considered more dangerous than a Kig-Yar Sniper|Jackal Sniper due to the fact that he is most commonly armed with the Binary Rifle, which can instantly kill a campaign player character and make them unrevivable until their next respawn, especially on Heroic or Legendary, so long as most of the beam hits. For this reason, Armiger Snipers should be high-priority targets and eliminated as quickly as possible.
Despite this, Armiger Snipers are the least well armored of the three types of Soldiers, as they die to a single headshot from a precision weapon, regardless of difficulty setting, in the same manner as Promethean Crawler|Crawlers, Unggoy|Grunts, and Kig-Yar|Jackals.
Getting too close to Armiger Sniper usually incites them to drop their Binary Rifles or LightRifles for a Suppressor, so it is highly recommended to kill the Armiger Snipers from a safe distance or as quickly as possible in order to retrieve their weapon or grab ammo from it. When the player is spotted, looked at, and targeted by a Armiger Sniper, they receive a red glare on their screen and heads-up display as a warning.
In the campaign, the Armiger Sniper appears in the following missions:
''Unconfirmed''
''Evacuation''
''Reunion''
''The Breaking''
''Guardians''
The Armiger Officer, also known as the Soldier Captain, is a more heavily armed and armored type of Soldier who speaks in a drastically different robotic voice from his lesser counterparts and is commonly armed with either a Scattershot, LightRifle, or a Splinter Turret. He most often leads lesser Soldiers.
It is highly recommended to deal with him from a safe distance as the Splinter Turret's projectiles are dangerous due to their strong knockback that can easily disrupt a Spartan while they are reviving another Spartan, which can then lead to the entire fireteam dying quickly. Use the scenery and thruster pack boosting to evade the projectiles, seek cover, and then fire away at the Armiger Officer with a precision weapon and/or explosive weapons.
In Warzone and Warzone Firefight, Legendary and Mythic Armiger Officers appear, armed with heavier weapons like Rocket Pod Turrets. They can survive multiple hits from heavy vehicle weapons like a D'nomlhe-pattern Banshee|Banshee's fuel rod cannons before dying.
All campaign missions that feature enemy Soldiers have Armiger Officers as enemies except for ''Osiris (level)|Osiris'', although there are normal Soldiers wielding Splinter Turrets in that mission.

File:H5G ArmigerTrio Render.jpg|300px|thumb|A group of armigers including (left to right) a Armiger Soldier|Soldier, Armiger Officer|Officer and Armiger Sniper|Sniper. Armigers are a sub-classification of Sentinel designed and employed by the Forerunners for use in planetary warfare. Unlike typical Sentinel designs, primarily renowned for their use of flight, armigers are bipedal combat platforms specialising in tactical infantry engagements within enemy constructs and on planetary surfaces. Armigers were particularly heavily used by the Forerunners in their Human-Forerunner wars|campaigns against Ancestors|ancient humanity and later, their Forerunner-Flood war|genocidal war against the Flood.
Armiger units may be colloquially referred to as "Promethean Soldiers" or similar; this is in reference to their deployments alongside Warrior-Servant and Promethean forces (particularly the latter) and not as an indication that they are of a similar origin to the Composer|Composed essences of the Promethean Knights. Similarly, the Soldier is simply one variant of armiger, albeit the most common (see #Variants|here for details on armiger variants). Inversely, Knights consist of Composed essences driving an armiger body.
Overview File:HM-Genesis.png|thumb|250px|Jameson Locke and John-117 fighting against armiger Soldiers on Genesis.
Armigers are primarily constructed by the Ferrarius Assembler Vats, and average a total height of around and weigh on average around . They are primarily constructed of an alloy composed of various metals and Smartmatter|machine-cells. The smartmatter structure is capable of interfacing with the armiger's artificial neural framework, which allows the controlling ancilla to repair damage and change their form at will, Despite outward visual similarities, armigers are a classification of Sentinel and thus do not house a composed mind in the same matter as that of their Promethean cousins. During their earlier deployments, armiger ancillae demonstrated considerable autonomy, though later units were limited due to their vulnerability to the logic plague used by the Flood. Their chassis' are capable of housing the artificial intelligence of a Monitor; such as in the case of 343 Guilty Spark.
Due to their bipedal robotic design, they bear a similar posture and frame as a human; even down to the orientation of their plated musculature. Despite this resemblance, armigers distinctly display the design aesthetics of the Forerunners. The design of the armigers displays unconventional angles, angular apertures, and floating items of dress. Though their bodies are thin and lithe, the armigers are heavily armored across their entire body. The face of an armiger is composed of symmetrical platesmade of the same alloy as their bodyand noticeable "eyes" that glow the same color as other lights found in breaches in and around their armor. Henry Lamb suspected that a rigid hard light composition holds the components of an armiger together. Armigers are quick and agile, and have the capability to easily avoid incoming weapons fire.
For locomotion, armigers use two bipedal legs powered by what Usze 'Taham likened to pistons and servomotors. They are additionally capable of using Slipspace translocation to rapidly traverse the battlefield.
They are capable of communicating, and can let out a variety of calls and sounds, such as roars, hisses, and ear-splitting death cries. A certain deafening noise used by armigers indicates the presence of hostiles nearby to other armigers in the area. The vocalization of an armiger was considered by Henry Lamb to be comparable to those of a human. Armigers later encountered by Fireteam Osiris and within UNSC War Games simulations vocalised in a synthesised voice, though were fully capable of speaking (and even taunting) in human languages.
File:H5G-Soldiers&UrbanM12LRV.png|thumb|250px|Simulated armiger Soldiers driving an Urban Warthog in War Games. Armigers are armed with an assortment of weapons. Some use energy staves that have a geometrical blade of hard light at the end. These staves are capable of blocking projectile fire from weapons. Armigers also arm themselves with powerful, marksman-like energy rifles that fire hard light-like ammunition. An armiger is able to "call" any weapon into its hand by having various pieces of its arm form into the weapon itself.
In a combat situation, armigers may even extend to picking up and using the discarded weaponry of their enemies. This includes martial weaponry such as the Sangheili energy sword, or even using firearms and vehicles such as the MA5D assault rifle or M12B Warthog (among others).
A common ability for armigers is the ability to transfigure their form to repair damage or even adjust their visage for aesthetic purposes. They were employed by various factions and lobby groups within the Ecumene, with more recent UNSC training simulations manifesting some of these variations (albeit in a largely speculative framework).
The most common kind of armiger was the Armiger Soldier|Soldier; a general-purpose automaton designed for engaging enemies in numbers with high speed. Sub-types of the Soldier employed in War Games simulations include;
Hydra Soldier Soldier Bandit Soldier Commando Soldier Enforcer Soldier Guard Soldier Operative Soldier Specialist
The other major forms of armiger encountered include the Armiger Sniper|Sniper and Armiger Officer|Officer.
}}
Armigers were used by the Forerunners for the purposes of planetary warfare, storming enemy strongholds, and Naval boarding|boarding and raiding enemy warships. They specialise in tactical infantry engagements, and were typically deployed in support of Forerunner warriors from Builder Security and the Warrior-Servants. During the later portions of the Forerunner-Flood War, the remaining armigers were tasked with the protection of valuable Forerunner sites.
Armigers are intelligent enough to use the environment and their surroundings to their advantage, such as knocking a giant tree down a mountain or setting a giant rockslide in motion to trample opponents.
Operational history
Armigers were first utilized by the Didact's Warrior-Servants during the human-Forerunner wars, from approximately 107,445 BCE|107,445 to 106,445 BCE. The constructs proved incredibly useful in Naval boarding|boarding actions against Prehistoric human civilization|prehistoric human warships, particularly when attempting to infiltrate the confined spaces of human vessels. Armigers of this era demonstrated considerable autonomy when compared to their successors.
Following the end of the conflict, the Didact was exiled during the ecumene Council's diminishment of the Warrior-Servant rate and production of the armigers ceased. When the arrival of the Flood Forerunner-Flood war|threatened the ecumene, Faberthe Master Builderrecommissioned the production of the armigers to bolster the defenses of the empire. The newly commissioned armigers supported the ranks of both Builder Security and remaining Warrior-Servant forces, though with their independence notably reduced once the effectiveness of the logic plague against armigers became clear. The conflict against the Flood saw the destruction of most armigers, either destroyed by the Flood itself or compromised by the logic plague. After many armigers were subverted by the logic plague, most of the remaining units were placed into dormancy to prevent further corruption. However, some were covertly left to protect valuable Forerunner sites, such as Installation 00.
}}
Armigers were present on the Ark, though remained apparently dormant throughout the Battle of Installation 00|battle raged there in late 2552. However, they were awakened by the installation's monitor 000 Tragic Solitude in 2555 in response to Operation: FAR STORM|an incursion on the surface of the installation by a joint UNSC-Swords of Sanghelios expeditionary team sent to investigate the Ark's reactivation. The armigers were used by Tragic Solitude in an attempt to halt the party from foiling Solitude's plans to rebuild the Ark, though were ultimately unsuccessful. Armigers remained a threat on the Ark through into 2559, during which time they partook in the Second Ark Conflict as combatants to defend the installation against the forces of the Banished and - with contingents of them seeing combat against the Orbital Drop Shock Troopers|ODST unit Sunray 1-1. File:HINF-Createdoccupation.jpg|250px|left|thumb|''Halo Infinite'' concept art depicting the Armigers and Sentinels used to secure the Created occupation on the various worlds of the galaxy.
After crashing the hijacked in 2554, 343 Guilty Spark survived by uploading himself to an armiger made out of parts salvaged from Installation 00 by the ''Rubicon''. After being rescued by the ''Ace of Spades'' in 2557, Spark used the armiger as his primary form, even molding the avatar created by Niko for him after it rather than after his old human identity Chakas or his old Monitor form. After traveling to Triniel to get an upgrade seed for the ''Ace of Spades'', Spark was able to use the Builder facility there to repair damage to his armiger. When Spark finally made contact with the Librarian through a personality imprint beneath Kilimanjaro, he suggested that she use an armiger to return to the living world with him, but she refused in favor of going to the Absolute Record. Though offered the same choice, Spark chose to remain with his friends from the ''Ace of Spades'' and briefly shifted his armiger into a combat configuration to get them out of trouble. Additionally, Spark's armiger displayed the ability to project a cloaking field over himself and his companions to shield them from ONI drones.
Following the New Phoenix Incident|defeat of the Ur-Didact over Earth in summer 2557, armigers began to appear in greater numbers at Forerunner installations across the Milky Way|galaxy - something later linked to the reactivation of the Guardian Custode at the hands of Cortana, indicating she had found the secret to the armigers' manufacture. The armigers would go on to become a primary symbol of the domineering influence of the Created as they The Reclamation|took control of the galaxy late in 2558, used to patrol city streets and display the reach of Created control in the face of resistance. These measures allowed Cortana to cement her influence over the major governments and worlds of the galaxy, with her armiger forces used as the primary reaction elements against anti-Created insurgencies. Armigers proved fairly effective in their occupational duties, and relatively low concentrations of them were used to oversee the compliance of civilian regions - with the end goal of Cortana being the hope that Armigers would come to be viewed not as an occupational force, but as a symbol of enduring peace. These enforcers became the targets of strikes by Spartan Operations|Spartan scout-snipers such as Kojo Agu|Koju "Romeo" Agu, who was responsible for eliminating many in efforts to prevent Created access to strategic sensor relays.
Armiger forces were deployed during Operation: HOURGLASS to shoot down or board the courier vessel piloted by Parisa.
Following the Battle over Installation 07|defeat of Cortana at Installation 07 in late 2559, her position as leader of the Created was taken over by High Auxiliary Sloan. Now in-charge of Created forces, Sloan proceded forward with the FIREWALL contingency - a project he had intended to seek approval from Cortana for prior to her demise. The FIREWALL contingency seeks to pair armiger technology with human-developed MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor schematics, in the hope of creating cybernetic bodies (known as executors) capable of advancing the next stage of human evolution.
Trivia An Wikipedia:Armiger|armiger is an individual entitled to use a coat of arms, in heraldry. In Latin, the word "armiger" literally means "arms-bearer". In medieval England, it referred to an esquire attendant upon a knight, but bearing his own unique armorial device.

Armor abilities are gameplay items featured in ''Halo: Reach'', ''Halo 4'', ''Halo: Spartan Assault'', and ''Halo: Spartan Strike''. Similar to Halo 3's equipment pieces, these items can be picked up and activated by players. Unlike ''Halo 3s equipment pieces, however, they are reusable. They are replaced in ''Halo 5: Guardians'' by the universally available Spartan abilities.
In-Universe UNSC and Covenant armor both offer attachments that tweak the armor's performance in different ways. For Spartans, these attachments sync with the soldier's neural network to improve the armor's abilities. Similar technology has been seen in Sangheili and Jiralhanae armor with dummy modules or terminator plugs.Halo: The Essential Visual Guide, ''page 15''
Overview Armor abilities are an alteration of ''Halo 3s equipment. Instead of being single-use, each ability is reusable, with a cooldown time between uses. In ''Halo: Reach'' campaign, the player begins with the sprint armor ability at the start of each level, and is able to swap it with other armor abilities they may come across. In multiplayer, armor abilities can be chosen through loadouts before a match is started or during a player's respawn time. Armor abilities can be manipulated like weapons in Forge.
Most armor abilities are enabled by a small device attached to the user's lower back, with each ability displaying a different color. When not in use, these devices will project a hologram that displays the icon of the ability, allowing for quick recognition from a distance or when switching abilities. When players are killed, the armor abilities will not be dropped.
All armor abilities are rendered useless to players when transporting objects such as Flags and Oddballs. If players attempt to use an armor ability, the object simply drops out of their hands. In custom games, the cooldown time can be altered and the ability to use armor abilities while holding objectives can be added.

Trivia
Hologram and Active Camouflage are great armor abilities to use during Infection gametypes as hologram can confuse zombies and active camo will straight up hide from them. These work well as they, to an extent, depend on the enemy not looking hard enough, something zombies don't have time to do. However, both become useless the moment the operator becomes the Last Man Standing, as a massive skull appears over their head. It is often advantageous to have a teammate using the Drop Shield ability in both Firefight and standard Multiplayer modes (mainly Invasion, as few other gametypes allow it for balancing reasons). This is due to the fact that this ability will heal wounded teammates without wasting health packs. When using the Active Camouflage, try "crouch walking." This will allow the invisibility to last longer and make it harder for the opponents to see the player while they is still moving. When one's Energy Shields are low or completely depleted, use Armor Lock until the energy shields recharge as much as they can before Armor Lock deactivates. This will ensure that a sudden ambush after a battle that left the shields depleted will not overwhelm one. Be wary of an enemy standing back, however. Active Camo can be useful during Generator Defense matches. While enemies are focused on the generators, one can sneak up on each one and assassinate or stick them. Promethean Vision is the only armor ability which can be used while carrying a detached turret. Using any other armor ability will cause the player to drop the turret. Armor abilities are weakened in War Games, in relativity to Campaign or Spartan Ops. This means that armor abilities have a shorter use time (Hardlight Shield, Autosentry, etc.) or have a weaker effect (thruster pack has shorter travel distance, players cannot jump while deploying the Hardlight Shield). In ''Halo: Reach'', take advantage of the jammer on Active Camo. You can use it to move at top speed and get into position, while the enemies that don't have line of sight on you can't be sure of what you're doing because of the jammer. It can be useful while standing still as well (such as when using a sniper rifle) as the mass of dots will conceal your still form, possibly leading enemies on a wild-goose chase away from your position...or into your sights.
In campaign, the player almost always starts, and can complete the level, with the Sprint Armor Ability. The only exceptions to this are in Exodus Rally Point Alpha, where a player must have a Jetpack to advance the level, and during a short sequence in the The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Reach level)|Pillar of Autumn (where the player pushes through the ), in which the player will spawn with Armor Lock. As there is no additional need for Armor Lock at this point, this was likely an oversight. Before, it was previously thought that each species can only use certain armor abilities (Elites were thought to be the only ones able to use Evade, and Spartans were the only ones thought to be able to use Armor Lock and Sprint).Halo: Reach Multiplayer Beta In the final product, this is not the case as both species can use all seven Armor Abilities. In the early stages of the game development, Elites using the Armor Lock ability were shown with a red aura instead of blue, while Spartans had a large and bulky attachment to their backs. However, these changes were erased before the game was released, so now both Elites and Spartans use the same blue armor lock. Skirmishers have the ability to use the Hologram armor ability. Armor Abilities will change form depending on whether an Elite or Spartan is using them. That is, Elite will have Armor Abilities made from purple metal, while Spartans have Armor Abilities which appear dull silver and rectangular. If a player drops an Armor Ability, it will take the form of the way it appeared on the player's back. The only exception is Evade, even if a Spartan drops it, it will still appear like a Covenant ability. This is odd as while on the Spartan's back, it can clearly be seen to share a design to other Spartan Armor Abilities (dull silver and rectangular). NOBLE Team (aside from the player) can be seen sprinting or using Armor Lock without the required attachments. Likewise, Jiralhanae|Brutes and AI Sangheili|Elites use their Armor Abilities (Armor Lock or Evade) without the necessary external attachment. Brutes aren't even wearing any sort of Energy Shielding that could be supercharged with Armor Lock. If one were to use Hologram and walk into the projection, they would notice that no matter what helmet they are wearing, the inside of the helmet of the hologram will always be the same. One can see this at the beginning of Noble Actual when Noble Six puts on his/her helmet. This was likely done to save time and resources. There are a total of seven Armor Abilities in ''Halo: Reach'', another reference to Bungie's favorite number. In the game ''Crysis 2'', there is a Hologram ability almost exactly identical in function to that of ''Halo: Reach'''s. However, it is a weapon attachment rather than an armor ability. If a player's Type-1 Energy Weapon/Sword|Energy Sword is depleted, the blade can still be seen when Active Camouflage is activated. In ''Halo 4'', a player's Hologram will not show any customized weapon skins, nor any customized emblem. In ''Halo 4'', meleeing a dead player's Forerunner armor ability attachment (on the lower back) will produce a unique sound effect.
Any weapons that are stored on the back when not in use clip right through the jetpack. Holograms cannot use the mechanical lift on Reflection or the large tubular gravity lifts on Spire (map)|Spire, even though they are affected by all other kinds of gravity lift or human-made lift, such as man cannons or the air lifts on Reflection. Armor abilities are often used to produce glitches. A few examples of armor abilities-related glitches are the Armor permutation glitch and the Infinite armor lock glitch.

It is similar to the version in ''Halo: Reach'', however the jammer no longer makes false hostile contacts appear on the motion sensor, rather it makes neutral contacts appear and in a much tighter grouping than before, therefore not only preventing the user from using it to trick enemies, but possibly giving away their location. Despite this, it still is an effective tool for hiding outside of cover and ambushing enemies.

Armor abilities are gameplay items featured in ''Halo: Reach'', ''Halo 4'', ''Halo: Spartan Assault'', and ''Halo: Spartan Strike''. Similar to Halo 3's equipment pieces, these items can be picked up and activated by players. Unlike ''Halo 3s equipment pieces, however, they are reusable. They are replaced in ''Halo 5: Guardians'' by the universally available Spartan abilities.
In-Universe UNSC and Covenant armor both offer attachments that tweak the armor's performance in different ways. For Spartans, these attachments sync with the soldier's neural network to improve the armor's abilities. Similar technology has been seen in Sangheili and Jiralhanae armor with dummy modules or terminator plugs.Halo: The Essential Visual Guide, ''page 15''
Overview Armor abilities are an alteration of ''Halo 3s equipment. Instead of being single-use, each ability is reusable, with a cooldown time between uses. In ''Halo: Reach'' campaign, the player begins with the sprint armor ability at the start of each level, and is able to swap it with other armor abilities they may come across. In multiplayer, armor abilities can be chosen through loadouts before a match is started or during a player's respawn time. Armor abilities can be manipulated like weapons in Forge.
Most armor abilities are enabled by a small device attached to the user's lower back, with each ability displaying a different color. When not in use, these devices will project a hologram that displays the icon of the ability, allowing for quick recognition from a distance or when switching abilities. When players are killed, the armor abilities will not be dropped.
All armor abilities are rendered useless to players when transporting objects such as Flags and Oddballs. If players attempt to use an armor ability, the object simply drops out of their hands. In custom games, the cooldown time can be altered and the ability to use armor abilities while holding objectives can be added.

Trivia
Hologram and Active Camouflage are great armor abilities to use during Infection gametypes as hologram can confuse zombies and active camo will straight up hide from them. These work well as they, to an extent, depend on the enemy not looking hard enough, something zombies don't have time to do. However, both become useless the moment the operator becomes the Last Man Standing, as a massive skull appears over their head. It is often advantageous to have a teammate using the Drop Shield ability in both Firefight and standard Multiplayer modes (mainly Invasion, as few other gametypes allow it for balancing reasons). This is due to the fact that this ability will heal wounded teammates without wasting health packs. When using the Active Camouflage, try "crouch walking." This will allow the invisibility to last longer and make it harder for the opponents to see the player while they is still moving. When one's Energy Shields are low or completely depleted, use Armor Lock until the energy shields recharge as much as they can before Armor Lock deactivates. This will ensure that a sudden ambush after a battle that left the shields depleted will not overwhelm one. Be wary of an enemy standing back, however. Active Camo can be useful during Generator Defense matches. While enemies are focused on the generators, one can sneak up on each one and assassinate or stick them. Promethean Vision is the only armor ability which can be used while carrying a detached turret. Using any other armor ability will cause the player to drop the turret. Armor abilities are weakened in War Games, in relativity to Campaign or Spartan Ops. This means that armor abilities have a shorter use time (Hardlight Shield, Autosentry, etc.) or have a weaker effect (thruster pack has shorter travel distance, players cannot jump while deploying the Hardlight Shield). In ''Halo: Reach'', take advantage of the jammer on Active Camo. You can use it to move at top speed and get into position, while the enemies that don't have line of sight on you can't be sure of what you're doing because of the jammer. It can be useful while standing still as well (such as when using a sniper rifle) as the mass of dots will conceal your still form, possibly leading enemies on a wild-goose chase away from your position...or into your sights.
In campaign, the player almost always starts, and can complete the level, with the Sprint Armor Ability. The only exceptions to this are in Exodus Rally Point Alpha, where a player must have a Jetpack to advance the level, and during a short sequence in the The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Reach level)|Pillar of Autumn (where the player pushes through the ), in which the player will spawn with Armor Lock. As there is no additional need for Armor Lock at this point, this was likely an oversight. Before, it was previously thought that each species can only use certain armor abilities (Elites were thought to be the only ones able to use Evade, and Spartans were the only ones thought to be able to use Armor Lock and Sprint).Halo: Reach Multiplayer Beta In the final product, this is not the case as both species can use all seven Armor Abilities. In the early stages of the game development, Elites using the Armor Lock ability were shown with a red aura instead of blue, while Spartans had a large and bulky attachment to their backs. However, these changes were erased before the game was released, so now both Elites and Spartans use the same blue armor lock. Skirmishers have the ability to use the Hologram armor ability. Armor Abilities will change form depending on whether an Elite or Spartan is using them. That is, Elite will have Armor Abilities made from purple metal, while Spartans have Armor Abilities which appear dull silver and rectangular. If a player drops an Armor Ability, it will take the form of the way it appeared on the player's back. The only exception is Evade, even if a Spartan drops it, it will still appear like a Covenant ability. This is odd as while on the Spartan's back, it can clearly be seen to share a design to other Spartan Armor Abilities (dull silver and rectangular). NOBLE Team (aside from the player) can be seen sprinting or using Armor Lock without the required attachments. Likewise, Jiralhanae|Brutes and AI Sangheili|Elites use their Armor Abilities (Armor Lock or Evade) without the necessary external attachment. Brutes aren't even wearing any sort of Energy Shielding that could be supercharged with Armor Lock. If one were to use Hologram and walk into the projection, they would notice that no matter what helmet they are wearing, the inside of the helmet of the hologram will always be the same. One can see this at the beginning of Noble Actual when Noble Six puts on his/her helmet. This was likely done to save time and resources. There are a total of seven Armor Abilities in ''Halo: Reach'', another reference to Bungie's favorite number. In the game ''Crysis 2'', there is a Hologram ability almost exactly identical in function to that of ''Halo: Reach'''s. However, it is a weapon attachment rather than an armor ability. If a player's Type-1 Energy Weapon/Sword|Energy Sword is depleted, the blade can still be seen when Active Camouflage is activated. In ''Halo 4'', a player's Hologram will not show any customized weapon skins, nor any customized emblem. In ''Halo 4'', meleeing a dead player's Forerunner armor ability attachment (on the lower back) will produce a unique sound effect.
Any weapons that are stored on the back when not in use clip right through the jetpack. Holograms cannot use the mechanical lift on Reflection or the large tubular gravity lifts on Spire (map)|Spire, even though they are affected by all other kinds of gravity lift or human-made lift, such as man cannons or the air lifts on Reflection. Armor abilities are often used to produce glitches. A few examples of armor abilities-related glitches are the Armor permutation glitch and the Infinite armor lock glitch.

''Active camouflage'' provides players temporary invisibility for a duration of 15 seconds, similar to the Thel 'Vadam|Arbiter's active camouflage feature from ''Halo 2''.Halo: Reach Multiplayer Trailer Its pick-up color is cyan and fully recharges from a complete depletion in 15 seconds. When activated, the player becomes invisible, with all sound heavily muffled for the duration of the effect. The ability loses its invisibility effect when the player moves at a certain pace: if the player starts running, they become more visible.
Active camouflage also includes a Radar jammer function where it will spawn a multitude of false dots on players' motion trackers within 25 meters.
| ! style="width:110px; text-align:center;" |File:ReachAA - ArmorLock.png|100px|center Armor Lock
| valign"padding-left:4px;" |}}
''Armor lock'', sometimes referred to as ''Armor Lockup'', is an ability that overcharges the player's energy shield, preventing the user from taking any damage. This ranges from repelling incoming explosive projectiles and removing s to disabling, damaging or even destroying incoming vehicles. However, in doing so, the player is immobile and cannot perform any act. Once depleted, the armor ability discharges a short-range EMP blast effect and pushes players away from the user.
Armor lock can be activated for a maximum duration of 5 seconds. After a delay of 3 seconds, the armor ability will recharge for 11 seconds to a fully-charged state. The armor ability varies with how long the ability is used; the longer the player activates the ability, the farther the final EMP blast radius will be.
The technology was first developed by the Covenant for use on Combat harness|Elite combat harnesses, but was adapted for use by Spartan personnel.Halo: Reach - ''Game Manual'' In ''Halo: Reach'', the ability is usable by the Spartans, Elites and Brutes and is enabled through a shielding attachment found behind the user's armor. Its pick-up color is orange.
| ! style="width:110px; text-align:center;" |File:ReachAA - Shield.png|100px|center Drop Shield
| valign"padding-left:4px;" |}}
The ''drop shield'' provides players a spherical energy shield that also regenerates their health. In a way, it functions similarly to a bubble shield, a deployable cover and a regenerator. While having similar appearance as the bubble shield, the drop shield is not entirely invincible - the strength of the shield is approximately three times that of a standard energy shielding system - and will deactivate when the damage reaches a certain threshold. The damage is represented in color stages from blue to red, similar to the deployable cover. Additionally, unlike the bubble shield however, plasma grenades will stick to the surface of the shield.
The Drop Shield does not regenerate players' health any faster than normal. Rather, it simply enables the player to regenerate his/her health to full at a similar rate to the base health regeneration rate. Thus, the faster the player's base health regeneration is, the faster the Drop Shield regenerates it. If the health recharge rate is set to 0%, then the armor ability will not regenerate players' health at all.
The drop shield expires and deactivates once the armor ability meter is at 3/4 full, after 15 seconds, unless it is prematurely deactivated from damage as previously stated. A new drop shield can be deployed 20 seconds after the first one was deployed, giving a 5-second window where the player is exposed. Damaging a drop shield will not reduce its lifespan unless it is completely destroyed. Also, a damaged drop shield will, if no further damage is done, repair the damage and return to full strength. The drop shield is available on the Medic loadout. Its pickup color is blue.
| ! style="width:110px; text-align:center;" |File:ReachAA - Evade.png|100px|center Evade
| valign"padding-left:4px;" |}}
The ''Evade'' ability allows the player to roll in any direction to avoid danger, breaking enemy lock-ons and tracking in the process. Players can evade two times before having to wait 4 seconds for the ability to recharge. Its pickup color is purple.
The Evade ability is provided by a "plug" attached to an Elite's armor, described as a "dummy module" or "terminator plug" whose precise function is unknown. In any case, it appears to enhance the mobility of the wearer and is compatible with both Sangheili and MJOLNIR armor systems.
The ability was exclusive only to Elites in the ''Halo: Reach Multiplayer Beta'', but later changed in the final product to be made available to both Spartans and Elites.
The Evasion speed scales with the movement speed of the player; the faster the player moves, the further they evades. In any custom game with speed set to high numbers such as 300%, the player will dash forward so quickly that they can traverse Hemorrhage in a matter of seconds. When used against a reasonably flat surface, it is possible to splatter oneself. Likewise, the base settings can be used to do various jumps that occur from impacting an object at high-speed, giving the player enough force to lift off the ground. It should be noted that Elites evade faster and farther than Spartans. Additionally, this ability is not available in the campaign to the player and will remain exclusive for Elite warriors.
| ! style="width:110px; text-align:center;" |File:ReachAA - Hologram.png|100px|center Hologram
| valign"padding-left:4px;" |}}
''Hologram'', sometimes referred to as ''Holographic Decoy'', is an armor ability that produces an identical Holography|holographic Type-27 Responsive Holographic Form Emulator|copy of the user.rvb:Deja View|RvB Wiki: ''Deja View'' Its pickup color is yellow.
The hologram ability is designed to confuse or distract the enemies' attention. To allies, the holographic copy would appear as a white dot on their radar. The ability functions by pointing the targeting reticule at a destination and deploying it like other armor abilities. When activated, the hologram will run in a straight line to the destination and stop once it reaches its designated location. The hologram will flicker away if it is either damaged enough or if it reaches its 10 seconds lifespan. A new hologram can be produced after just 7 seconds, which would immediately dissipate the old one.
The hologram has a default movement trait (speed and gravity) and, as such, does not inherit the player's movement trait.
| ! style="width:110px; text-align:center;" |File:ReachAA - Jetpack.png|100px|center Jet Pack
| valign"padding-left:4px;" |}}
The ''Jet Pack'' ability allows players to maneuver in mid-air, with the use of Series 8 jetpack (UNSC) or a Covenant thruster pack|thruster pack (Covenant). Its pickup color is white.
The ''Jet Pack'' ability varies with how long the ability is used. The longer the player activates the ability, the longer the player would be able to remain in the air but at the consequence of having the ability depleting faster. Thus, it is recommended that the player use the ability in bursts, which would deplete the ability less than a sustained flight. Additionally, fall damage still applies to Jet Pack users should they fall from the air. The Jet Pack scales with the set gravity; so the less gravity is set, the higher the jet pack can lift the player.
The Jet Pack ability is a useful tool for evading vehicles, grenades, and navigating maps. (''"And if you were worried about players flying with the flag via Jet Pack, I can assuage those fears. Won't happen. If you have hold of the flag, using an Armor Ability will cause you to drop it instantly. Pick it back up, and the effects from your Armor Ability will vanish. Same goes for any multiplayer specific object you can hold in your hot little hands."'')
| ! style="width:110px; text-align:center;" |File:ReachAA - Sprint.png|100px|center Sprint
| valign"padding-left:4px;" |}}
The ''Sprint'' ability allows the player to move at an increased speed for approximately four seconds. In campaign, it is the default armor ability. Its pickup color is green. When activated, the player's character model will pant heavily. The sprinting scales with the player's movement speed; the faster the player moves, the faster the player sprints. Weapons cannot be used during the sprint.
Canonically, the "Sprint" function operates by bypassing the safety limiters of the MJOLNIR actuators and "muscles", allowing better performance at the expense of heat regulation, overheating the user if used for prolonged periods. This "hack" was developed by Catherine-B320.

File:HINF Prism Flanker&EOD.png|thumb|350px|Two Spartans employing different armor coatings, showcasing different armor colors and texture. Armor coatings, also known as armor skins, are an element of player customization in ''Halo Infinite''. They are a seven layer system that change the materials and coloration of a player's Armor customization (Halo Infinite)|armor permutation.
Coatings act much like base color selection in previous ''Halo'' titles. By default, ''Halo Infinite'' features an array of average colors for the player to use for free. Additional coatings can be earned through the Battle Pass|game's multiple battle passes, Event|events, and Challenges/Halo Infinite|challenges. Some coatings could only be obtained through Halo Infinite promotional content|promotional campaigns and the release of certain toys and collectibles that started in 2020. Exclusive coatings, such as Watchdog and Master Builder, can only be obtained through acts such as reaching Rank (Halo 5: Guardians)|SR-152 in ''Halo 5: Guardians'', or managing to get a map featured in a playlist in ''Infinite'' respectively. Finally, a majority of coatings can be purchased, either individually, or through Shop Bundles|bundles that rotate in through ''Infinite's'' Shop.
Coatings are currently not compatible across every armor core, although updates during the Winter Update and Season 03: Echoes Within have furthered progress on allowing this to be the case. New coatings released for Season 04: Infection and Season 05: Reckoning are naturally compatible across all armor cores. Default coatings

Trivia
Between their unveiling and release, certain armor coatings underwent changes, ranging from minor to major. These include:
The Granular coating, the render of which originally displayed a predominantly cyan Spartan with green accents. The techsuit of said Spartan was yellow and red. The final version of the coating has the player's Spartan taking on a primarily yellow color, with some minor red, blue, and green accents, while their techsuit is fully black. In the final game, the 343 Industries-exclusive armor coating, Unicorn Dream, bears a large resemblance to the pre-release version of Granular.

The Blood Shadow coating, revealed in a promotional image featuring seven Mark VII-clad Spartans, originally featured metallic red on the upper torso's portion of the techsuit. The rest of the coating remained unchanged from its launch state.

The Primal Glory coating was formerly known as "Grassroots" before being updated prior to its release as a Twitch drop. No aesthetic changes occurred. The Red Shift coating, which underwent a more subtle change, with most wear and tear seen on the pre-release render being removed from the final product. Additionally, most colors on the coating appeared to be much brighter.
*It was announced in the that the Red Shift coating, along with the Watchdog coating, will be updated to be more in line with previously released renders. On March 6, 2023, it was announced that Red Shift's updated variant, now known as "Shred Shift", would arrive with Season 03: Echoes Within's release.

The Scarlet series of coatings, Scarlet Empress, Scarlet Skies, and Scarlet Wake, were subject to a change with the release of Season 03. Like Untethered Wind, the Scarlet coatings utilized the Cadet Red color palette, which was subsequently made free and default to all players. The newer variations of the Scarlet coatings utilize a more metallic shade of red, replace areas on the armor with silver, or deep black, and also utilize different techsuit textures compared to the originals. The Splinter Desert coating was subject to a near unnoticeable tweak, with the original promotional image for the coating showing the camouflage pattern on the Spartan's shin area of their techsuit. The final coating would opt to keep the shin region entirely brown.

The Untethered Wind coating was subject to a large overhaul, following the December update during ''Halo Infinite's'' Winter Update. Originally, the coating utilized the Cadet Blue color palette, however, with the addition of the Cadet coatings across all current armor cores lacking them, Untethered Wind was changed to feature a brighter blue, silver and white in place of muted gray, cyan lighting over orange, and finally, a new, shinier techsuit texture.

The Vermillion Flame coating on the Yoroi armor core featured a minor change between Season 03 and Season 04, with one of the skirt armor's lights being changed to white, rather than the metallic red of the coating it originally was.
File:HINF - Vermillion Flame comparison.png|A comparison of Vermillion Flame on Yoroi, with the left being the original, and the right being the updated coating.
The Watchdog coating, which, like Red Shift, underwent a subtle change, where the silver seen on the coating's pattern was much more muted than pre-release renders.
*It was announced in the that the Watchdog coating, along with the Red Shift coating, will be updated to be more in line with previously released renders. During a community playdate on December 14, 2022, an updated coating, "Watchdog Neo", was shown off and slated for release with Season 03. Looking near identical to the original Watchdog coating shown off in late 2020, Watchdog Neo will be added alongside the original, allowing players to keep both the old and new versions of Watchdog. Additionally, Neo will be added to newer cores released since 2021, which includes RAKSHASA-class Mjolnir|Rakshasa, Eaglestrike, MIRAGE-class Mjolnir|Mirage, and Chimera (armor)|Chimera.

The Wild Kovan coating, first seen in the Halo Infinite Multiplayer Overview|''Halo Infinite'' Multiplayer Overview, originally featured the coating's signature camouflage pattern on the elbow region. Upon the game's release, this area of the coating would be changed to feature a black, textured design matching the coating's upper torso techsuit design.

The Karaba Sirocco's color scheme is a reference to the series and possibly to the mobile suit from the 1985 anime '''', due to the usage of the light pale cyan color scheme instead of a pure white or grey of the . The name references organization and character also from 1985 anime Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam. It is possible the references to Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam are due to ''Halo Infinite's'' campaign taking place on the Zeta Halo ring. The Ultramarine Corps' name, color scheme, and description are references to the Legion, one of the twenty Space Legions in the Imperium of Man, from the table-top franchise "Warhammer 40,000".
*The First Founding is the event when the original twenty Space Marine Legions, including the Ultramarines, were created by the Emperor of Mankind.
*The color scheme is similar to the one used by the chapter, one of the Ultramarines' successor chapters. The Jacknife's color scheme is a reference to that of the Evangelion:Evangelion Unit 01|Evangelion Unit 01 from the anime ''Wikipedia:Neon Genesis Evangelion|Neon Genesis Evangelion''. The name of the coating may be a reference to the Evangelion:Evangelion Weapons#PKN-01C Progressive Knife|PKN-01C Progressive Knife, a weapon used by the Evangelion Unit-01 that resembles a jackknife. The Powersuit Hero's name and color scheme is similar to the found in . However, instead of a pale white, the coating has a dark gray color as its accent.

File:Halo The Master Chief Collection - H2A Elite armor permutations.PNG|thumb|250px|The original three Elite armor permutations available in ''Halo 2: Anniversary'' multiplayer. Armor customization in ''Halo 2: Anniversary'' allows players to customize their SPARTAN programs|Spartan and Sangheili|Elite player model. Following in the footsteps of ''Halo 3'', and ''Halo 4'', the customization system would be revamped and overhauled following ''Halo: The Master Chief Collection|Halo: The Master Chief Collection's'' launch in 2014.
Overview File:HTMCC H2A ArmorCustomisation.jpg|thumb|250px|left|The customization menu for ''Halo 2: Anniversary'', following its overhaul for Series 3. Upon launch, ''Halo 2: Anniversary'' originally featured six basic armor sets, split between Spartans and Elites. The Spartan and Elite's visual styles were rooted in the aesthetic of MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)|MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor [GEN2], and Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|the Covenant remnant introduced in ''Halo 4'', respectively. Originally, the armor players could use in ''Anniversary'' were locked to pre-made armor sets, lacking any customization whatsoever. Additionally, the six base sets were freely unlocked, with no prerequisites present for their use.
For the launch of Series 3: Recon in 2020, the customization system was updated, allowing players to swap individual helmets, shoulders, chests, wrists, and legs for Spartans, and helmets, arms, chests, and legs for Elite models.
With 343 Industries celebrating the Halo 20th anniversary|20th anniversary of ''Halo'' in late 2021, a new armor permutation was added to ''Halo 2: Anniversary'': the ORION armor|Orion armor. ORION is based on the armor used by the Master Chief, seen during Pre-Xbox Halo|''Halo's'' reveal in 1999 (real world)|1999, and was made available through The Exchange exclusively.
The launch of Series 9 in 2022 saw the release of several new Fractures armor sets for the game's customization suite; Trooper armor|Trooper, Megaframe armor|Megaframe, Panzerdoll armor|Panzerdoll, and Bioroid armor|Bioroid. Additionally, a new canon armor set, Breach attachments|Breach, was added - with its design being based on unused ''Halo 3'' concept art.

Production notes File:H2A - Mark VI (GEN2 - UE4) - 00001.png|thumb|250px|A Mark VI-clad Spartan rendered in ''Unreal Engine 4'' from 2020 to 2022.
''Halo 2: Anniversary's'' cosmetic options would undergo dramatic overhauls over the course of ''The Master Chief Collection's'' lifespan.
Notably, the ''Unreal Engine 4'' models for both Spartans and Elites got overhauled over time. Upon ''Halo 2: Anniversary's'' PC release, all six models were of lower quality, lacking the shiny, metallic nature of the actual, in-game armor, while the techsuit featured a predominantly deep black coloration, with a slick sheen that isn't present in-game. With the release of Series 3, the models would all be updated, featuring higher quality assets overall. The metallic shine present on in-game armor would be added, and the techsuit would be rendered in a gray color, featuring a more game-accurate techsuit. Series 8 would update the models again, amplifying the armor's shine, while also returning the smooth sheen once present on the techsuit.
Additionally, during Series 3, when the options for customization were initially widened, the player's Spartan's bicep armor was determined by their choice of wrist armor, not by their shoulder armor. Eventually, this would be changed, and swapping shoulder pieces would also swap the bicep armor underneath it. File:H2A - Series 8 - Color tweaks.jpg|thumb|left|Two Spartans featuring the same colors, the left being pre-Series 8, the right being post-Series 8. Finally, in a first since Hammer Storm, the release of Series 8: Mythic would see the colors the player could select being altered, with each being darkened dramatically compared to its pre-Series 8 counterpart. This change resulted in more visual parity between the ''Unreal Engine 4'' render and the in-game character model. It also would not be noted in the Series' patch notes.
Upon ''Halo 2: Anniversary's'' PC release, the customization menu reused tooltips from ''Halo: Reach's'' customization menu. Erroneously, the updated customization menu stated the choice between a Spartan and Elite player model is only applicable to appropriate, species-specific gametypes, despite the option being available regardless of gametype. As of Series 8, the preferred species prompt's tooltip still insinuates the choice is only applicable to appropriate, species-specific gametypes.
*Additionally, during Series 2: Spark, the Spartan customization menu reused ''Reach'' tooltips, and stated the player can change the appearance of their Spartan by "adding or removing armor", despite the game only providing the option to switch armor sets at that time. The Elite menu properly stated the player can only select specific armor classes. This would be updated for Series 3: Recon later in 2020, opting to use more general terminology with the switch to more intensive customization.
As of the release of ''Halo 2: Anniversary'' on PC, the updated Elite armor sets reused descriptions from the Sangheili Minor|Minor, Special Operations Sangheili|Spec Ops, and Sangheili Ranger|Ranger Elite armor sets seen in ''Halo: Reach'', as a result of reused menu text. With the release of ''Halo 3: ODST'' later in the year, these would change to the descriptions based on those seen in a 2015 Canon Fodder blog post. The internal unlock files for ''Halo: The Master Chief Collection'' indicate the ORION armor was originally slated to be released in the ultimately cancelled Season 9. Likewise, the same files indicate the Bioroid, Breach, Trooper, Megaframe, and Panzerdoll armor sets included with Series 9 were originally intended for release in the similarly cancelled Season 10.
*The internal unlock files for the armor within Series 9 also refer to the Breach armor sets as "BREACH A" and "BREACH B". To create "A", the player must combine the Breach Scout helmet, the TAC attachments|TAC/SRV-III shoulders, and the UA/KOTIN chest piece. To create "B", the player must combine the Breach Link helmet, the UA/WAYLAND shoulders, and the UA/GRT78 chest piece.

File:H3ODST - Armor permutation menu (Xbox 360).png|300px|thumb|The customization menu in ''Halo 3: ODST''. Armor customization in ''Halo 3: ODST'' allows players to customize the member of the Alpha-Nine that they choose to play as, with each having their own unique aesthetic in the game's Firefight (Halo 3: ODST)|Firefight mode.
Overview On ''Halo 3: ODST's'' launch, players could choose one of the members of Alpha-Nine, and their primary and secondary armor colors, with the armor's main color remaining the same. Players could also choose whether or not to wear a helmet, unless they were playing as Jonathan Doherty|the Rookie or Avery Junior Johnson|Sergeant Johnson, who cannot remove his helmet and cannot put one on, respectively. Choosing not to wear a helmet does not affect gameplay. Without a helmet, the player still has the same health and stamina, and they can still use Visual Intelligence System, Reconnaissance|VISR mode. Each character has their own unique lines of dialogue which play during gameplay, similar to the Armor customization (Halo: Reach)|Firefight voices that would later be implemented in ''Halo: Reach'' as an unlockable item.
With the launch of ''Halo 3: ODST'' on PC and the start of Series 3: Recon in ''Halo: The Master Chief Collection'', the ''ODST'' characters were added to the game's customization system alongside Firefight as part of the collection. The various characters were added to the season progression path and can be purchased for . ''The Master Chief Collection'' additionally features two skins not available in the base game; the injured Romeo model as portrayed following the level NMPD HQ, and a "bug-splattered" Buck, as seen in Data Hive and Coastal Highway. The game also features Sergeant Johnson as purchasable for all players, previously restricted to a pre-order exclusive in the original game. Additionally, ''The Master Chief Collection'' features the helmet-less edition of each character as a separate unlock to their helmeted incarnation, unlike the original release which only had the helmet-on option as a toggle that was available at any time.

Production notes The option of tertiary colors are not present. This is because the ODST character models make use of the tertiary color slot for the character's skin color. Dare's character model is built off of the female marines, resulting in her playable character variant being an entirely seperate entity/biped (in engine terms) from the male ODSTs. Additionally, a strange oversight also makes Dare the only playable character in ''ODST'' who does not ragdoll upon death.

File:H3 Snowbound Customisation.jpg|thumb|300px|A player using a mix of armor sets in ''Halo: The Master Chief Collection''. Armor customization in ''Halo 3'' allows players to customize their SPARTAN programs|Spartan and Sangheili|Elite player model with a variety of armor pieces available to players. The feature is an improvement of ''Halo 2''s player customization feature, and the first in the series to allow players to change the physical model of their character beyond species and colour selection.
Overview File:H3 - Multiplayer concept art.jpg|thumb|250px|Artwork by Isaac Hannaford revealing the existence of Recon, long before the armor was officially announced. Halo 3 features a number of armor selections for both Spartan and Elite player characters, unlocked primarily by accomplishing feats within the campaign, Matchmaking and earning achievements. It was first hinted at during the Halo 3 Beta|''Halo 3'' Beta, with the limited-access featuring the ability for players to customise their armour colouration and Emblems|emblem - though no ability to customise armour permutations. Hidden in the Beta's files were strings referencing the in-development names for the multiplayer armours, with some Modding|modders able to figure out the existence of a potential armour customisation system ahead of the official release.
The system was initially unveiled in the July 2007 issue of GamePro, featuring a handful of images of the EVA-class Mjolnir|EVA and CQB-class Mjolnir|CQB armor sets alongside the standard Mark VI, though was noted by Bungie to not be the full set of armor available in game. Bungie later officially announced the inclusion of Elite armor variants, and on Bungie Day 2007 officially unveiled the CQB and EVA permutations' visuals and lore. A piece of art illustrated by Isaac Hannaford released at the same time additionally revealed the existence of the Recon armor, though the armor was not specifically called out by Bungie or given any attention until later.
In total, there are 17 armor sets included in ''Halo 3'', 12 of which for the SPARTAN-II character model and 5 for the Elite character model. These armor permutations are organized into three categories: ''Helmet'', ''Chest'' and ''Shoulder''. There are a total of 30 color options to use with these armor permutations. Certain armor permutations can only be unlocked by completing the game on certain difficulties, accumulating certain Gamerscore, or by obtaining certain multiplayer-specific achievements. Some, such as RECON-class Mjolnir|Recon or the exclusive Bungie Armor, have more esoteric unlock requirements, and can only be granted under certain conditions. Additionally, some Spartan armor sets only contain a helmet piece or chest piece, with no other associated armor selections.
''Halo 3'' unlock requirements
''Note: The below unlock requirements only apply to the original ''Halo 3'' game on Xbox 360 or via Xbox One backward compatibility. In ''The Master Chief Collection'', all armors from Legacy ''Halo 3'' are unlocked by default for all players - including the Bungie armor.''

''Halo: The Master Chief Collection''
File:HTMCC H3 NewArmour.jpg|thumb|250px|The Demo, Suture and Compass armors introduced into ''Halo 3''. For the ''Halo 3'' multiplayer component of ''Halo: The Master Chief Collection'', all armor - including Recon and Bungie - was unlocked for all players for use by default. Between the game's launch in 2014 and the launch of ''Halo 3'' on PC in 2020, armor customization was limited to full sets with no mix-and-match customization, due to the difficulties of running multiple engines in the menu component. In this launch rendition, the armor sets were displayed in the menu as static renders, with the armors using full armor sets or - in the case of armors with no associated armor for chest, helmet or shoulder elements - Mark VI to supplement missing elements. As such, using a helmet such as Mark V or ODST required the usage of all Mark VI for everything else. Using the Katana chest, however, would use Hayabusa for all other armor elements. Additionally and for the first time, ''The Master Chief Collection'' allowed players to use the Bungie Armor (now renamed "Flaming Head"), and would display the characteristic flames and EOD chest as it did in the original game, though with enforced Mark VI shoulders and helmet.
Following the launch of ''Halo 3'' on PC and start of Season 2: Spark, this system was updated to display ''Halo 3'' character models in Wikipedia:Unreal Engine 4|Unreal Engine 4, with full customization in-game as it was at the launch of ''Halo 3''. In this change, the Bungie Armor chest was renamed "Legacy", and the Security armour set was given a chest armour piece; in launch ''Halo 3'', equipping the Security helmet additionally outfitted the chest with a small antenna. Following the Season 2 update, the antenna is now considered a separate chest, and can be used regardless of helmet.
With the launch of Series 3: Recon, ''Halo 3'' customisation was updated with the inclusion of Skins (Halo 3)|skins for application on a player's weapon and several new visor colour options for use with all helmets. The full list of ''Halo 3'' skins can be viewed Skins (Halo 3)|here.
In the Season 4 December update, ''Halo 3'' was expanded to include new techsuit customization, with the players being able to change it between a new ''Halo 3'' techsuit and ''Halo 4'' techsuit (both colored and full black).
Series 5: Anvil included twelve new armor permutations for ''Halo 3'', Armor customization (Halo Online)|originally created for the cancelled ''Halo Online''. Additionally, included new forearm and leg customisation, allowing players to choose between the new twelve armors or the default Mark VI. These armors can be toggled off for a more classic experience, with any players using ''Halo Online'' armor instead displaying as default Mark VI.
Series 6: Raven included several new armor permutations, including six ''Halo Online'' armor permutations and the four ODST armors used by Fireteam Raven in the Halo: Fireteam Raven|namesake game. It also added a "Back Accessory" option, allowing players to choose between six new back packages (four being based on ''Halo: Fireteam Raven''), three new techsuit options, and fifteen new animated visor colors.
Series 7: Elite saw the inclusion of seven new ''Halo Online'' armor permutations for the ''Elites''. Additionally, it will include new forearm and leg customization, allowing players to choose between the new seven harnesses or the default Combat harness. The season also added seven new techsuit options. Series 8: Mythic will include new armor, visors and back accessories alongside skins for weapons and vehicles.
For Halo's 20th Anniversary, a new armor permutation was added: the MIRAGE-class Mjolnir|Mirage armor, based on the Semi-Powered Infiltration armor used by SPARTAN-III program|SPARTAN-IIIs.

As of the Series 4: Reclaimer#December 16 patch notes (Version 1.2028.0.0)|December 2020 update, Spartans in ''Halo 3'' can now choose between three different techsuits to display underneath their MJOLNIR armor. Season 6 will include three new colored techsuits, with these techsuits not inhereting the player's primary color. These include the following;
GEN1: ''Integral to the entire Mjolnir system, the techsuit encases the wearer's body and provides attachment points for the armor plating above it.''

Trivia
In reusing tooltips from ''Halo: Reach's'' appearance menu, the updated customization menu for ''Halo 3'' in ''Halo: The Master Chief Collection'' now erroneously states the choice between a Spartan and Elite player model is only applicable to appropriate, species-specific gametypes, despite the option being available regardless of gametype.
*Additionally, when hovering over the menu element to change Elite armor permutations, the game erroneously states the option is to change Spartan armor. This would be fixed with the release of ''Halo 3: ODST'' on PC.
In early Development of Halo 3|development for ''Halo 3'', the ability to play as Elites in multiplayer had some canonical justification. Early text strings indicate that ''"Spartans have been authorized to assume Elite skins in combat scenarios"''. A certain conceptual helmet seen in ''The Art of Halo 3'' greatly resembles the AIR ASSAULT-class Mjolnir set that'd later appear in ''Halo: Reach''. In ''Halo 3'', the neck of an Elite (regardless what armor permutation used) is completely immune to any form of damage except for a shot from an overcharged Type-25 Directed Energy Pistol|Plasma Pistol. In addition, the projectile will simply pass through the neck, as though the neck wasn't there, without a blood spatter. This is because both Elites and Spartans have similar models. Many people speculate that hitboxes of the Spartans and Elites are shared but this is not true. While Bungie has officially commented on the hitboxes, they regard the size of the hitbox not the arrangement. Hitboxes are an unseen registry mechanic, which fall into the player models. They determine whether or not something has collided with the player. If an Elite is facing profile (sideways), and a shot is fired underneath the head (to where a Spartan's chest would be), the game will not register a hit. The head "hitbox" is forward more on Elites than it is Spartans.

File:Armor Customization.png|300px|thumb|Some of the armor variants in ''Halo 4''. Armor customization in ''Halo 4'' allows players to customize their SPARTAN-IV player model. New armor sets can only be unlocked by reaching certain Rank (Halo 4)|ranks and completing specific in-game commendations, Challenges, or Halo Waypoint goals.
Overview
''Halo 4'' provides armor customization akin to previous ''Halo'' titles, featuring the ability to swap specific armor pieces on the player's Spartan-IV. The armor is based upon the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)|MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor [GEN2] model, with some variants being upgrades of previous generational incarnations. Customization slots remain mostly the same as the game's predecessor, ''Halo: Reach'', however, wrist and leg utilities are replaced with full wrist and leg armor customization, and armor effects don't make a return. The player can also customize their armor with specific skins, including camouflage patterns and other, more ostentatious designs.
As stated above, common armor sets can be unlocked by reaching certain a Rank (Halo 4)|Spartan Rank (SR), while rarer and more elaborate designs require the specific completion of commendations, Challenges, or Halo Waypoint goals. The release of the Champions Bundle brought an additional four armor sets and one skin to use for players who purchased the DLC, though said armor will display as default Recruit armor in the game's ''Spartan Ops'' mode due to technical reasons.
In a first since ''Halo 2'' in 2004, ''Halo 4'' removes the player's option to use Elites in multiplayer, as an emphasis was placed on "Infinity (mode)|''Infinity'' mode" which focuses on SPARTAN-IVs.
On launch, ''Halo 4's'' port on ''Halo: The Master Chief Collection'' only allowed for limited armor customization, and the player was limited to choosing a full set of armor and colors, with no ability to swap specific armor pieces, armor skins, or visor colors, while the player was also locked to a red visor. Likewise, the Champions Bundle armor did not return, and wasn't available to use. This system was employed at launch due to the difficulty of having to run several game engines for customization in the menus.
Starting with the release of ''Halo: Reach'' in the collection, it and the games leading into ''Halo 4'' began to receive, or were updated to have full armor customization with the implementation of the menu's ''Unreal Engine|Unreal Engine 4'' component, with ''Halo 4'' receiving its own customization update upon the game's launch on PC and debut of Series 4: Reclaimer in November, 2020. This update was first alluded to in Series 3: Recon, as a placeholder ''Unreal Engine 4'' render was added to the game's menu. With ''Halo 4''s flight and update, full customization was restored to the player, including armor skins, and visor colors. Champions Bundle armor wasn't included on ''Halo 4''s launch, but was later included alongside Armor effects with the release of Series 7: Elite in 2021. Season 7 also included the introduction of the Project KEYSTONE|Keystone helmet, inspired by the design of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark VII|Mark VII design included in ''Halo Infinite''.

Production notes
Pre-release builds of ''Halo 4'' featured some slight differences in armor texturing, with the neutral white lights present on armor being red. In addition, base armor texturing was also altered for the game's final build. A Cut Halo 4 customization|number of armor sets and skin variants were additionally considered for inclusion in the game, recieving concept and model passes, including a redesigned Project HAYABUSA|HAYABUSA and MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark IV|Mark IV.
Trivia Xbox Live Guest accounts in the original Xbox 360 release of ''Halo 4'' are able to customize their appearance with any and all armor pieces unlocked by their host. This differs from previous titles, in which guests could change their emblem, colors, service tag and gender, but could not customize their armor.

File:H5-Spartan-Customization.png|thumb|400px|Some of the armor variants in ''Halo 5: Guardians''. Armor customization in ''Halo 5: Guardians'' allows players to customize their SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan player model. These armor sets can be obtained by getting to a certain rank in the game along with unlocking achievements in ''Halo: The Master Chief Collection'' and obtaining armor in Requisition system|REQ packs. Unlike ''Halo 4'', armor customization in ''Halo 5: Guardians'' is limited to the helmet, armor, and visor. In addition, new armor permutations were released post-launch via REQ content updates as was the case for Mark IV and Mark V sets, for example.
Overview
''Halo 5: Guardians'' features more customization slots than launch ''Armor customization (Halo 2: Anniversary)|Halo 2: Anniversary'', yet, features much less than ''Armor customization (Halo 4)|Halo 4''. The three slots available for armor customization include the Helmet, the Armor, and the Visor with previously player decided armor pieces (such as legs, wrists, and shoulders) being determined by the base armor the player chooses. Aesthetically, the armor of ''Halo 5: Guardians'' is based upon the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)|MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor [GEN2] model, much like ''Halo 4'', and also allows for armor skins, enabling further unique customization options. ''Halo 5'' doesn't allow the player to switch to an Elite, be it for multiplayer, Forge, or custom games.
Unlocking armor can be done in a few potential ways; for example, earning achievements present in ''Halo: The Master Chief Collection'' such as "Legend (Halo: The Master Chief Collection achievement)|Legend", which grants the player HELIOSKRILL-class Mjolnir|Helioskrill armor. It should be noted that armor unlocked by achievements in ''The Master Chief Collection'' were later able to be obtained in the general REQ pool.
The Halo Channel app on the Xbox One platform also allows players to unlock Nightfall armor by watching ''Halo: Nightfall|Halo: Nightfall's'' five episodes. This could be done as early as November 11, 2014, which allowed for the armor's use in the ''Halo 5: Guardians Multiplayer Beta'', alongside Helioskrill, and two variants of MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark VI|Mark VI (GEN1).
Another method of unlocking permutations involves the use of REQ packs, which provide randomized armor and visor unlocks to the player, among other things. Certain REQ packs also exist that can grant truly exclusive armor to the player. These include the HCS pack, which contains a specific variant of ATHLON-class Mjolnir|Athlon armor known as "Champion", and the Halo World Championship 2016 pack, which was only available if the player watched the event on a stream with their Xbox Live account linked to said stream during a certain time frame. This pack gave out the CHALLENGER-class Mjolnir|Challenger armor. Both the Athlon's Champion variant and Challenger armor are exclusive to their specific REQ packs and aren't in the general pool.
In February 2017, a special REQ pack known as the "Classic Helmet REQ pack" was released as a standalone purchasable item containing nine helmets: MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark V#Halo 5: Guardians|Mark V Delta, CQB-class Mjolnir|CQB, RECON-class Mjolnir|Recon [Gen1], MP-class Mjolnir|Military Police, EOD-class Mjolnir|EOD, PILOT-class Mjolnir|Pilot, OPERATOR-class Mjolnir|Operator [Gen1], SECURITY-class Mjolnir|Security [Gen1], and EVA-class Mjolnir|EVA [Gen1]. These nine helmets were not a part of the general REQ pool, much like HCS branded items.
ACHILLES-class Mjolnir|Achilles armor follows a unique unlock trend, as it requires the completion of the 31 "Kill" commendations that are available to Spartan Company|Spartan companies. Upon the completion of level 3 for all "Kill" commendations, the body armor for Achilles is granted to the player, and upon the completion of level 5 for all, the helmet is granted. With the release of ''Halo 5's'' "evergreen" season, and the cessation of support for older elements of ''Halo Waypoint'', Achilles armor was made inaccessible at the end of 2021 as challenges involving companies could no longer be completed.

File:HINF Multiplayer Reveal 2021-3.png|thumb|300px|A pre-release screenshot showcasing different armor permutations in ''Halo Infinite'' multiplayer. Known in-game as the Armor Hall, armor customization in ''Halo Infinite'' allow players to customize their Spartan player model. Inspired by ''Halo: Reach''s Armor customization (Halo: Reach)|armor customization, ''Halo Infinite'' has a greatly expanded array of player customization compared to previous entries in the series.
Overview
''Halo Infinite''s armor customization allows players to change their helmet, helmet attachments, chest gear, shoulder pads, gloves, wrist gear, knee pads, hip utility, visor color, and Armor effects. Furthermore, players can customize Emblems and Nameplates (Halo Infinite)|emblems on their chest piece. Players can unlock armor permutations pieces through seasonal Battle Passes, Challenges/Halo Infinite|challenges, in-game Event|events for both canon and Fractures, and by purchasing items through the Shop. Additionally, armor pieces are exclusive to their acquisition methods; for example, items on the Battle Pass are not currently unlockable through other methods.
Players choose their armor core, which acts as the foundation for the aesthetic of their armor. At launch, attachments were locked to their specific armor core, although 343i stated they were looking into ways to open up customization to work across all cores. Similar to ''Halo: Reach'', ''Halo Infinite'' allows players to remove their shoulder pads entirely, though unlike ''Halo: Reach'', this is not the default appearance. As of the August 9th 2022 update, visors were made cross-core compatible.
With Season 05: Reckoning on October 17, 2023, helmets were made cross-core compatible. While armor kits were originally locked presets and could not be customized, Season 05 added the ability to change newly released kit items, including the visor, coating, emblem, armor effect, and mythic effect set. This change affects the ''Infinite'' Mark VI, Rusalka, Transgressor, and ''Combat Evolved'' Mark V armor kits. Future updates aim to make shoulders cross-core compatible.

Trivia
With the release of Season 03, all icons for helmets on the Mark VII armor core released during Season 01 were updated to be more in line with those used for Season 02's Battle Pass|battle and Event passes and onwards. Differences included a subtle angle shift and a change in the icon's visor color from gold to green. Season 04 saw the Yoroi core's icons being updated, following the same theme as the Mark VII armor core, featuring a green visor, an altered image angle, and the removal of the Gatekeeper shoulders from any applicable render.
*As of Season 04, none of the relevant attachment icons for Mark VII were updated, and the icons for the B-class Mjolnir|Mark V [B] and Eaglestrike armor cores remained untouched.
