It’s a work in progress. I need it to look more forerunner. thoughts/opinions?
It looks too human. If you want it to look more Forerunner I would ditch the whole rock theme all-together.
Also you might try referencing the Honor Guard Pike as seen in Halo 2.

Ooh, good idea, ima do that. I forgot about the honor guard pike.
small misnomer though–it’s not rock, it’s metal. -_-
I’d take off the wooden foregrip. And see if you can cover the blades in glowing Forerunner glyphs or script. Other than that, it’s a solid framework to start out on.
Good job.
The “blade” is a good start- it has a pretty cool shape to it- but you might want to consider redesigning the staff portion. Almost all forerunner technology is angular in its construction, and usually pretty ornamental and extravagant, so the pike does look a little plain. Little lights running along the shaft would be a nice touch. You may also want to change the colors and textures a bit, as forerunner “metals” tend to be highly reflective.
