The "Crystal Liquid Layer" is amorphous, yet fractionally scales and amplifies force, doubling lifting capacity and decreasing reaction time by a factor of five."<ref name="Sybex">[http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/0782142362/ref=sib_dp_pt/104-1277807-1730301# Halo Bible Entry] on Page 5 of [[Halo: Combat Evolved: Sybex Official Strategies & Secrets|Halo: Combat Evolved: Strategies & Secrets]]</ref> Because of this advancement, the design more closely resembles an actual suit of armour, as opposed to a powered exoskeleton. On one level the soldier moves the suit and in return the suit moves the soldier. This allowed for an incredibly compact design when compared to the previous incarnations.<ref name="ceti">[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]], pages 114-117</ref> | ||
This is a significant cybernetic advancement of technology, truly melding man and machine together. [[Spartan]] [[John-117]] and his team needed under an hour of drilling to adapt to moving with the increased speed and power granted by this technology. [[Dr. Halsey]], the suit's designer, considered this to be the most important feature of the armour, and it is arguably the most dangerous. The system is so reactive that normal [[human]] being cannot wear the suit without injuring themselves. Only an augmented Spartan can safely wear MJOLNIR armour.<ref name="Sybex"/> | This is a significant cybernetic advancement of technology, truly melding man and machine together.
