ok, i’m not sure if goes in the Universe area or not so i’m just going to post this here.
As the title says, what could you do with the GEN 2 Spartan Armor? In Reach, Armor Lock (If i remember correctly) diverted all power to the shields, making you temporarily invincible, however draining your shields afterwards. And in Halo 1 Cortana was able to make an EMP using Chief’s suit, and this was all done with GEN 1 armor. So what I want to know is, what could a Spartan do with his armor if he has an AI partner? Could he divert energy to shielding and focus or center it into a single area? Post your thoughts on this topic.
no, this is sci-fi, we’re not super saiyans.
THIS IS SPACE WARRIORS VERSUS SPACE ALIENS AND ROBOTS.

true, i just want to know if it’s just limited to temporary invincibility and EMPs or if you can do a lot more. I mean, you’ve got a whole different generation of armor, and if you have an AI i figure you could do a lot more -Yoink- with your armor’s electronics and shielding.
> you mean armor lock?
basically. I mean, if you could screw with it enough you could probably get some sort of -Yoink- kicking electric pulse thing- i, just realized how much it sounds like star wars in halo…

in a way, yes it is like SW, but SW doesnt have humans fighting aliens over a giant Halo,right?

fair enough. But seriously, what do you think a Spartan could do if he/she had an AI mess with their shielding?

in a good way: AL OP’d
in a bad way: umm… weak and/or dead.

I mean as far as abilities or something, ya know, overshielding, electric pluses, ect.
theres a thin line of difference between AL and overshield
AL: unkillable for set amount of time and emp blasts
Overshield: unkillable for amount of time but can be assasinated
i’m sure you would know this. combine PP and overshield and you get AL! ta-da!
I have a hardlight projector on my wrist and back for a shield and air-foils, with an AI I would be able to combine the 2 into creating a hyper-velocity re-entry shield capable of penetrating a ships hull with no effectual damage to the Spartan.
I have a Thruster Pack combined with EVA jets around my suit, I can make acrobatic and aerobatic moves nearly inconceivable to hardened soldiers.
I have a Promethean HUD in combination with a multi-spectral analysing sensor system to begin with.
I have an enhanced Active Camo system that no longer radiates infrared radiation, thereby making me invisible to nearly every form of EM-detection
I have all 4 of those abilities because I am not hindered by gameplay mechanics and it is so.
As for tactics, it is called an KFHD or Knocking From Heaven’s Door.
A Spartan using AI support will be dropped off just outside a planet’s atmosphere within hyper-space. The Spartan will then slip back into normal space with an observable signature that appears to be a random convergence of ionosphere and natural geo-magnetic flux emission due solar wind interaction, and proceed to needle through the atmosphere using the HL projectors to form an impenetrable shape that morphs from the re-entry formation to a hull-busting formation that once again changes shape upon entering a ship/building, depending if the intent is to infiltrate of simply pass through.
This tactic can be used to penetrate underwater strongholds at varying depths due to varying designs, as well as employ its own HALO jump technique for earthly landings.

it wouldn’t make them invincible it’d just give them extra shielding. and as for the EMP blasts i’m just talking in general.

It may be that with an OS in H4, you cannot be assassinated anymore. Then again it could have been because of the Last Stand mode being active maybe in Dominion if you’re on you’re last stand, then you can’t be assassinated. Weird if so on the latter.
