It is time recognize the most popular armor manufacturer. Each manufacturer have their own armor making abilities. Armor made by the manufacturer is shown below in the spoilers. The list is my opinion on each armor manufacturer.

Hannibal Weapon Systems: Most Generic.

Materials Group: The most experienced and oldest.

Naphtali Contractor Corporation: The bulkiest armor

Imbrium Machine Complex: Focuses on a lot of different things to improve Spartans.

Lethbridge Industrial: The most exotic and unique armor.

Archeon Security: Help Spartans in environmental and Special Ops.

343 Industries: The newest in the armor manufacturing business. Devoted to the almighty unicorn…

Being an avid user of Stalker armor, the chest is the only piece that’s really bulky. So I use Warrior because it’s the most streamlined compact chest as far as I can tell.

3

343i, more for it’s comedic effect on me.

But for practicality, whoever made Warrior (I think Materials Group???)

Warrior was made by the Materials Group.

Yea thanks

The Materials Group is probably my favourite.

And because this <—

7

Materials Group for me.

Thanks for including the list OP, it made it a lot easier to pick which one I like the most. My favorite is Lethbridge Industrial, it has a lot of armor that I really like.

Welcome, feel sorry for Naphtali Contractor Corporation though. No votes for them so far.

10

I use a mix of most of them…

11

> I use a mix of most of them…

Then chose the ones that you use. That is why I allow multiple choice.

12

Imbrium Machine Complex for me…

I use mostly Defender armor…

13

I voted for all of them! I use the Recon helmet, Recon torso, Scout right shoulder, EOD left shoulder, overlocking forearms, Legendary Visor, and I forgot the legs.

14

An Imbrium palette for me.

15

Considering the Warrior set is canonically the mainline armor kit for MJOLNIR, I’d say that Materials is the best.

Also, the Materials Group makes the Recruit forearms and legs.

Sidenote: The NPC Spartan-IVs that you encounter in Campaign and in Spartan Mountain have different forearms than the “Recruit” one. This is actually the original Recruit forearm, but it seems that the Warrior’s forearm was changed to be the default.

If you look here, you’ll see that there was originally a different Recruit forearm piece

Alright, thanks I will edit that immediately!

I’d find it hilarious if the 343 industries manufacturer was actually cannon in the universe and with every new game, an even more over the top armor was introduced adding to their repertoire of funky armors. XD

I heard their next armor set is COTRS. Charge. Of. The. RhinoS

My 3 favorites are Hannibal, Archeron, and Lethbridge. Maybe Naphtali.

So 9 months or so on and that forearm on those pictures is the Ricochet arm for the latest armour DLC.
