Minor are the most commonly seen in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', ''[[Halo 2]]'' and  ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' on the [[Easy]] and [[Normal]] difficulties. On [[Legendary]] and [[Heroic]], almost none are present. In ''[[Halo 3]]'', the only level Minors appear in is [[The Covenant (level)|The Covenant]]. Sangheili Minors are usually found leading lances of Unggoy, but they themselves will likely be led by a Sangheili Major.

Their armor's energy shielding is weak compared with that of higher-ranking Sangheili. Showing off at least some sign of intelligence despite their inexperience, Minor Sangheili are '' capable'' of hiding when their shields are lowered and will attempt to attack anyone foolish enough to enter into close combat with them with their weapon. They often make tactical errors such as standing in the way of an ally's fire, rushing forward into enemy fire and forgetting to take cover which leads to a lot of deaths (even at the hands of a UNSC Marine). They will seek less cover, often standing in one spot to fire and strafe less often than their superiors. When they are seriously injured or unshielded, they will also go "berserk", yelling a war cry and attempting to melee their opponent to death. They also fire in shorter bursts, and have somewhat less accuracy and lower rate of fire. Still, one should not underestimate them, especially on the Heroic and Legendary difficulty settings.
