The original Unggoy Heavies wore distinctive sage-green armor, typically with a full-face methane breather and a cylindrical methane tank on their back, similar to the [[Unggoy Ultra]]. Their armor provided significantly more protection that that of a [[Unggoy Minor]] or [[Unggoy Major|Major]] but it wasn't nearly as strong as an Ultra's or an [[Special Operations Unggoy|Unggoy]] in [[Covenant Special Operations|Spec Ops]]. | |||
The heavies of [[Jul 'Mdama|Jul Mdama's]] [[Covenant remnant|Remnant]] were slightly different although they wore a overall similar combat harness. They wore unique, turtle-like helmets over their heads and wore harnesses that came in a variety of different colors, including red, blue, orange and silver.<ref name="H4 Interactive Guide">[http://www.halowaypoint.com/en-US/halo4guide '''Halo 4 Interactive Guide''']</ref><ref>[http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/Universe/Detail/character-enemy-renders/421563ab-3b18-4e29-8487-3dd79b627a70#imageNumber=17 '''Halo Waypoint:''' ''New Halo 4 Renders'']</ref><ref>'''Halo 4 Prima Official Game Guide''' (Collector's Edition), page 51</ref> | |||

This is easier to find when the player destroys a Phantom, the Grunt will most likely (if it survived) be wielding a Spiker or a Mauler. | ||
*In ''Halo 3'', if a Heavy Grunt panics while carrying an undeployed turret, it will wave the turret around in the air with only one hand. This is because Grunts usually use small single-handed weapons, and no separate animation was created for Heavy Grunts using turrets. | *In ''Halo 3'', if a Heavy Grunt panics while carrying an undeployed turret, it will wave the turret around in the air with only one hand.

Actual Spec Ops Grunts are only seen manning the side-mounted plasma turrets on the Phantoms. Something similar happens in ''[[Halo 4]]'', where Unggoy Heavies are classified as Ultras by the [[List of Halo 4 Commendations|Commendations]] along with some other enemies who have also been mislabeled. | ||
