Can you destroy them like you can Phantom dropships?
Or are they invulnerable?
Invulnerable. i know this because i tried shooting off its turret but nope, it doesn’t get blown off (i put about 6 tank shots onto the front turret)
Ah kk, I assumed as much. Thanks!
The guide says they could “theoretically” be shot down, but their thick armor and fast flight speed often insures it remains intact after dropping its occupants.
So I wasn’t sure if the guide was saying it was or wasn’t invulnerable from a gameplay prespective, because that statement could be taken either way.
Nah. They got the Phantoms beat.
No but I’ve always wondered why. Halo CE, Reach, and 5 they’ve always remained indestructible(excluding the turret) while Phantoms in the same games they exist in(Reach and 5) are destructible.
In Halo Wars, they could be destroyed.
Yes! It seems they can be, kind of by the looks of it. I was looking on here to see if i could shoot down the propaganda spirit in Halo 5’s Battle of Sunaion, and while that spirit is moving to fast to take out, a short while after thier is a spirt that deployes troops, however until you move close enough it simply hovers in the air, i hit it drom long range with maybe 13-15 shots from the plasma caster fully charged and it simply fell, listing to one side from the sky into the ocean, no explosion or anything else, but satisfaction non the less ^_^.
In Reach you could destroy the turret, and in Halo CE, they were invulnerable then… It makes you wonder why the Covenant even switched to Phantoms in the first place (they could be destroyed in Halos 3, ODST, and 4).

Well, that was Halo Wars. In a strategy game, nothing is indestructible (excluding mountains and Flood of course).

Don’t forget Halos 3, ODST, and 4!
Apparently not. But if phantoms are destructible, they should put a phantom as a boss in Warzone.
