In a similar vein to “Design your personal Mythic weapon”, this thread is for people to post their ideal armour design if a system such as the Halo 4 or Reach system of customisation was in place. Describe what it looks like (You can use pieces from any game in the franchise and if you want to you can also select specific skins for said armour pieces - or just describe your own entirely) and then if you feel like it, give a description like in Halo 5 (One for the helmet and one for the rest of the armour).
Example:
Gunner
Helmet: Mark V (B)
Chest: Interceptor (All primary colour except for techsuit, which is your secondary colour)
Legs: Security
Shoulders: Commando (Reach)
Arms: Prefect
Helmet Description: “A project that started and ended in the Human Covenant-War, the Human-Sangheili alliance and attempts to reverse engineer the technology in Promethean weapons prompted the both project’s re-activation and advancements in the field of strength enhancements.”
Armour Description: “The use of Promethean suspension fields generated between the armour and the techsuit increases the wearer’s strength at the cost of select armour abilities due to power drain. This feature was then condensed into a modular support package, making space in the armour itself for other equipment.”
Helmet: Mark VI [GEN1] Early Production Type
Description: Despite being considered obsolete, the Mark VI [GEN1] helmet remains feared by the Covenant and their remnants, and respected by all modern Spartans.
Armor: Mark VI [GEN1] Early Production Type
Description: While other MJOLNIR Mark VI variants are currently in use, the Early Production Type is directly based on the original variant used by Spartan John-117 towards the end of the Human-Covenant War.
Basically just a direct port of the MJOLNIR Mark VI model from Halo 2 Anniversary’s campaign.
Mark VI CQB variant. (Halo 3)
Been my favorite since it was teased with a flame thrower.
Halo doesn’t feel right to me, without my helmet.

My ideas:
Executioner (Ultra-Rare)
Helmet: Wetwork, but instead of the thin central visor, two sharp, angry eye-visors.
Chest: H4-5 Tracker
Shoulders: FJ-PARA (Reach)
Arms: H5 Wrath
Legs: H4 Defender
Helmet Description: "The AI housed within the EXECUTIONER helmet specialises in network hacking and tracking, making it effective with and/or against Insurrectionist, and even Created hackers.
Armour Description: "According to ONI officials, EXECUTIONER Armor is employed to hunt down Insurrectionist targets with extreme prejudice. More often, they are used to find and eliminate ONI’s enemies."
Erebus (Ultra-Rare)
Helmet: H2 Hoplite
Chest: H2 Centurion
Arms: Helioskrill
Legs: Prefect
Helmet Description: “EREBUS’ helmet utilizes a targeting system capable of working in the most remote systems, looking past the dark clouds of glassed planets and the great void of space.”
Armour Description: "EREBUS was designed with deep-space combat in mind. Capable of tracking targets even past breaking orbit, the EREBUS Armor may be one of the most durable (and expensive) MJOLNIR variants.
Mark IV
Helmet: Mark IV
Chest: Mark IV
Shoulders: Mark IV
Arms: Mark IV
Legs: Mark IV
Helmet Description: Mark IV is the best helmet.
Armor Description: Mark IV is the best armor.
Helmet: Mark V [GEN1]
Description: Due to the aesthetic preferences of some Spartans, the Mark V helmet has been upgraded to work with GEN2 systems as an alternative to Mark V Alpha.
Armor: Mark V [GEN1]
Description: Improvements to Mark V armor allow it to stay relevant within the wide array of MJOLNIR GEN2 armor sets.
Basically just a direct port of the Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary version of Mark V.
