hello all i want to know what are the names of all the armor abilities in halo 4 and what they do.
We don’t know all yet, but I’m sure someone could give you teh ones we already know 
Edit: Google is your friend 
UNSC
Active Camo
Thruster Pack
Jetpack
Regeneration Field
Covenant
Active Camo
Hologram
Forerunner/Promethean A.I
Promethean Vision
Hardlight Shield
Auto Sentry
That’s just a list. You’ll have to google it and then you’ll know how they function 
Hologram
Auto Sentry
Thruster Pack
Hardlight Shield
Regeneration Field
Promethean Vision
Active Camo
Jet Pack
- sprint | self explanatory
- hard light shield | deploys a shield that temporairly protects but you cannot shoot and you’re movement speed is reduced.
- promethean vision | lets you see through walls while distorting your vision
- hologram | deploys a hologram of yourself that walks in a straight line doing nothing
- active camo | lets you turn invisible and jams radar at the cost of sound and radar, while moving you become more visible
- jet pack | a vertical movement accelerator, lets you fly really high up and cross greater distances, the only downside is that you’re more exposed
- thruster pack | a quick short boost forward that disorients you for a secound
- regen field | yet to be official explained (leaked picture states that it pushes away enemies and sets up a regeneration field)
- sentery turret | yet to be explained
i think thats it

ARMOUR MODS
Promethean Vision
The ability to see through walls. It doesn’t last long, but for a few seconds you essentially have x-ray vision.
Hardlight Shield
Presumably intended to be a replacement for Reach’s Armour Lock, this works much like a riot shield seen in various other FPSs. Player movement and turning is slowed and they are unable to shoot whilst using it. There have been suggestions that it only blocks ballistic attacks with explosions still causing damage through the shield.
Auto-Sentry
We’ve not seen much of this, but expect it to function in a similar manner to the auto-turrets in Halo 3, more of a nuisance/distraction than a genuine threat to other players. We don’t know how long they stay active for or if they run out of ammo, however we do know they are destroyed when the player who dropped them dies.
Jetpack
This was seen used in Spartan Ops during E3 and has been talked about in some of the closed beta leaks. We don’t know much about it so can only assume it’s similar to the Reach incarnation.
Thruster Pack
Two boosters on the Spartan’s back thrust the player in a horizontal direction of their choosing. This seems to be a replacement for Evade, it can only be used once per charge which is down from 2 uses Evade had in Reach
Active Camo
Not shown officially, but was seen on leaked menu screens from the beta.
Hologram
People who’ve played the E3 demo say this is identical to the Reach version - Holograms show up as normal players when seen using Promethean Vision.
Regeneration Field
Not shown, but discussed by players who’ve played the closed beta. Likely to be similar to the shield regenerator in Halo 3.
TACTICAL PACKAGES
Firepower Package
Allows the player to choose two primary weapons in their starting loadout, so you could start with both a DMR and BR as opposed to BR and Pistol.
Shield Package
Shields will recharge faster.
AA Efficiency
Faster recharge on Armour Abilities - Not shown publicly, leaked from the beta.
Grenadier
Carry an extra grenade at spawn.
Shielding
Possibly the same as “Shield Package”, but the leaked beta screens and Waypoint use different terminology so I’m listing this separately.
SUPPORT UPGRADES
Awareness
Allows the player to see their radar whilst using a scoped weapon. It also offers “heightened locational intel of all nearby enemies”, although it’s not clear what exactly that entails.
Sensor Upgrade
Increases the range and sensitivity of the radar.
Ammo Upgrade
Allows the player to spawn with more ammo.
Resupply
Allows you to pick up grenades from dead players - which also means that without this upgrade you will not be able to pick up grenades dropped by other players.
Mobility
Infinite sprint. People who’ve played the game at E3 say that this isn’t as big a boost as it sounds, you get quite a lot of sprint by default.

I am sure there are more that haven’t been discussed above.

Hologram is in? Well hopefully it isn’t as useless as it is in reach.
The most I could get out of it was maybe blocking some hits or tricking newbies

no no no no no no no no no noooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!
Apparently, Hologram is similar to in Reach, but MUCH more effective at looking like a player.
It shows up on the radar like everyone else, tricks Promethean Vision, and looks more realistic and less Hologram-like.
However, it still runs in a straight line and requires VERY specific situations to trick people and get the kill.

But then again, that was from the E3 build so things might have changed.
