Like all Jiralhanae in ''Halo 2'', eliminating a Jiralhanae Major takes a considerable amount of firepower due to their "bullet-sponge" trait. The best way to eliminate them is by removing their helmet caps with a couple of shots before finishing them off with a headshot. The Majors are typically seen sporting [[Type-25 Brute plasma rifle|Brute plasma rifle]]s and [[Type-51 carbine|Covenant carbine]]s.  Occasionally, they'll wield [[Type-25 Brute shot|Brute shot]]s.

They are usually seen commanding less experienced Jiralhanae, [[Unggoy]], and [[Kig-Yar]]. They become very aggressive, more so than the Minors, when they start to berserk.

In ''[[Halo 3]]'', Jiralhanae Majors are now equipped with power armor, colored in blue. Compared to the Minors, the armor given to Majors are equipped with some form of energy shielding. The armor falls apart when the shielding is removed and the armor takes too much damage. They typically use Spikers, and occasionally use carbines, Brute shots, and plasma rifles.

In ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', Majors are synonymous with [[Jiralhanae Captain|Captain]]s.<ref>[https://halo.bungie.net/projects/reach/images.aspx?c=53 '''halo.bungie.net''', ''Images - Renders'']</ref> They do not have energy shields, but are equipped with gold helmets that let them resist multiple headshots.
