Using the suit's powerful armament, Ghost first atomized the Wraith with a [[Type 18 Magnetic/Bayonet-style Claymore]]. However, his combat engineers berated him for "disobeying" the orders but Ghost said he already removed all the data and used the time left on Mark ADS I; a staggering countdown to trigger the final detonation when the system would have required a voice command. As the responsible for the Hades Corps, he said the mission cannot be jeopardized. Despite his statements, his Hades Corps comrades still order him to stop using the suit and destroy it. Ghost managed to destroy swathes of Covenant forces, savagely countering the Covenant assault and wasting most of their ground forces and vehicles such as [[Wraith]]s and aircraft, including multiple {{Pattern|Irdnekt|Banshee}}s. During the fight against Covenant forces, Ghost ordered Hades Corps to retreat, leaving him alone engaging against the Covenant forces and allowing the Marines and civilians to escape.{{Ref/Reuse|prototype}} As a Phantom supported by 2 Irdnekt-pattern Banshees approached, Ghost engaged them in aerial combat, destroying the 2 Banshees and hijacking the [[Phantom]] by violently destroying it when the gunship crashed into the surface.{{Ref/Reuse|prototype}} In the ensuing battle against the ground infantry, Ghost was overwhelmed. The suit's shielding system started to fail from massive salvos of shots from [[Type-25 plasma pistol|plasma pistols]], [[Okarda'phaa-pattern plasma rifle|plasma rifles]], and [[Pez'tk-pattern fuel rod gun|fuel rod guns]] wielded by [[Unggoy Heavy|Unggoy Heavies]] and [[Sangheili Minor]]s and [[Sangheili Zealot|Zealots]], and the suit has been completely disabled when a plasma grenade severed its (and Ghost's) left arm.{{Ref/Reuse|prototype}}
