Halo: Reach - Rate the armour above you!

So I’m sure you’ve taken notice of Novus 7’s “Rate the Spartan armour above you!” post in the Halo 4 forum, but if you haven’t, this was pretty much it…

> If you have your Spartan as your Forum icon then rate the persons armour above you out of 10!

So I decided to post a similar thing in Halo: Reach.

Well, here’s a link to my Halo: Reach Service Record to get things started.

Please link your Halo: Reach Service Record in your post. Thank you!

8.5/10

Not bad, but I was always of a mind that GUNGNIR helmet variants fit better with bulkier suits of armor.

My Service Record

10/10

Very much a fan of the classic design.

Gungnir is my favorite Reach helmet, but the arms are too skinny. 7.7/10

(Also, should we mention if our character is Spartan or Elite, then say what it is if we are an Elite? Because my colors are primarily centered around my Elite, and I was just wondering.)

I dislike the GUNGNIR helmet, :confused:

That’s fine, I suppose.

@videomixer99 - Colors aren’t my personal favorite, and Sappers always seem to look a little off. The rest of the armor, especially the helmet, is quite nice. 8/10

8/10 @LORD XINDUS

I like the Gungnir helm especially with the CRBN attachment. I never really cared for the robot arm. Really digging the colors though.

This can be fun!

@iTrentz, dig the color scheme. Never rightly been a big fan of the Recon helmet, though. I dunno, too… Ninja-ish. I do like it’s shoulders, and used them until I unlocked the ones I’m using now (ODST, for them what can’t tell). On the whole, I’d say 7-8ish out of 10.

Speaking of, might as well link:

My Service Tag, no laughing please! (I know I suck)

Be minded, the armor on it changes frequently-not due to unlocks or what have you (ultimately, I’ve got almost everything I want-just need the sniper left shoulder, the shotgun wrist, the first aid pouch, and I’m golden), I just don’t like thinks staying the same for very long…

Plus sometimes I like throwing on as much RvB style armor as I have (need the proper helmets still), and rocking out as one of the boys from Blood Gulch (or the Meta). So the armor you click and see today may not be the armor that is there tomorrow. I like keeping it fluid. :wink: About the only thing that ever stays the same is if the helmet has a variant with the CBRN/Hazardous Environment attachment. I like that. Seems that as you’d be landing in hostile environments, you’d want all the protection you could get.

So yeah. You’ve been warned-my service record is laughable, my armor changes pretty frequent.

I now return you to your regularly scheduled programming, already in progress.

Diego, your armor’s cool (maybe coz it’s similar to mine.) I’m full ODST in steel and silver, with the tracking thingy on my guy’s left forearm.

As for your K/D - buddy, I was WAY below you at one point (.34 shudder).
Stick in, choose your fights, stay calm and place your shots and DO NOT run-n-gun!
It’s much better to be the shootist, not the shot.

If you want to go even more accurate, use the blue visor, UA/NxRA Utility, and GUNGNIR knees. I was using the ODSTs on Installation 04 for reference on the characters of a Machinima I’m making.

My service record for reference.
The thing that never stays constant is my chest. It differs between Assault/Commando and both Assault/Sapper variants.

Working on it, mate. I appreciate the tips-particularly the shot pacing-I need to be reminded of that frequently (hence why I play a lot of SWAT these days, trial by fire is the best kind of trials!). Glad to see another Helljumper on here, too!

As to the armor, I’m actually working on getting the bits of the McFarlane toys armor bits to recreate my SPARTAN-III (apart from the CBRN helmet, they didn’t make it sadly).

First off, I am DIGGING the colors. Very Blue Angels (assuming my semi-colorblindness isn’t -YOINKED!-ing everything up). Only thing, though, as I said to the last guy, don’t care for the recon helmet. That’s just me. Still, due to being a big fan of the BAs, you get a 9 of 10. :wink:

As to your Machinima, I’m interested in seeing it when you get it done-I just started dabbling with it myself (am currently building the “Main Base” for the concept in Forge World), and would like to see as many representations of the art form as possible!

That helmet attachment is not the best IMO. Colors aren’t my favorite either.

KitKat, I like it, but I feel like the Security shoulder with the Sniper shoulder just shouldn’t go together.

8.5

Despite the simplicity, I think Teal and White work really well with Mark V**.**
(Also, my character is dominantly Elite, so keep that in mind.)

Hot!

10/10

Don’t take that the wrong way.

8/10 @KitKat The Fox

Don’t really care for the giant Security shoulder. I really like your choice in helmet though. Really like Operator.

Ugh. My armor stinks right now. Lol I change it all the time but I usually have Silver and Blue, Haunted, ODST right, sniper left and U/A Base Security for chest.
My guy just has like the second chest piece on and pre-order recon with black.

10 for the simplicity and the helmet!

Okay guys, just for future reference it would really help the viewer if you linked your guys’ service records to your posts, so we don’t have to go search through about three different screen windows to get to it, then back out of all of it.

Thanks.
