Sangheili | Sangheili Minors are logically, physically, and pragmatically the least-experienced warriors of their race; however, they are still skilled in combat. They are somewhat weaker than their crimson-armored [[Sangheili Major|Major]] superiors and occasionally will perform unwise tactical mistakes, such as standing in an ally's line of fire, or taking long pauses to roar at their enemy before attacking. Being the lowest ranked in the Sangheili military hierarchy, they possess [[energy shielding]] that is weaker than any other Sangheili, (besides that of [[Stealth Sangheili|stealth units]]), and is also inferior to the shielding of [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|MJOLNIR armor]]. | ||
Although the lowest and most common of the Sangheili ranks, the Sangheili Minor's threat is not to be underestimated. Most Sangheili in this class can still easily overpower a [[human]]. Known primarily by their iconic blue armor, Minors who show leadership initiative are usually deployed in small strike [[lance]]s or in leadership roles above [[Unggoy]] and [[Kig-Yar]] squads, while those Minors who exhibit more bravery than skill will instead report to a Sangheili Major or Officer.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/community-update-summer-red-summer-blue '''Halo Waypoint''' - ''Summer Red, Summer Blue'']</ref> If the Minor leading the lance is killed, their subordinates will often flee.
