I’ve been picking up the evade armor ability in Halo infinite multiplayer, and every time I pick up the evade armor ability I’m lost wondering why on earth evade is an armor ability in the first place.
In my mind evade should be built into each Spartan natively. They are supersoldiers. Evading is a requirement of survival. Every supersoldier must know how to evade to survive. It isn’t that only some Spartans can evade because they are lucky enough to find the power up while the rest are left to be annihilated in the line of fire. They are all equally trained and equipped to evade incoming attacks. They’re not trained and equipped to be sitting ducks until they’re roasted alive by the enemy.
What makes a soldier feel like a supersoldier in gameplay? High mobility and the ability to evade incoming attacks.
How can evade be built natively into each spartan? Easy, the jump button. Double tap the jump button to evade in the direction the left stick is pressed. The thrusters can also be used for a double jump, which also increases mobility and gives a supersoldier feel to the user.
I suggest building evade into the spartan kit natively, and leave the armor abilities for specialized abilities
