'''Assembler | The '''Assembler''' is a type of [[Strato-Sentinel]] employed by the [[Forerunner]]s.{{Ref/Book|Enc22|Page=335}} Like the similarly-named [[Constructor]]s, Assemblers are used to build Forerunner installations and their components.{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=328}} | ||

Assembler Sentinels are predominantly designed, and employed, for the construction, maintenance, fabrication, transportation and reconditioning of large superstructures.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}{{Ref/Twitter|franklez|1179076414487662592|Frank O'Connor|Quote=They are deliberate variants created by the Studio4°c in partnership with us - and they are canonical and in that sense those variants could show elsewhere. They are tweaked as new designs to infer re-seeding and general array and repopulation maintenance duties. See also Iris|D=29|M=04|Y=2022}} They typically work alongside [[Retriever Sentinel]]s, utilising the resources harvested by the Retrievers for the construction of large structures such as [[Halo Array|Halo rings]].{{Ref/Reuse|foundry}} Assemblers may also be utilised to conduct finishing work on structures emerging from large construction looms.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} | |||
Though they are not designed for combat, they will suspend their primary duties to engage [[Flood]] forms in the event of an outbreak.{{Ref/Book|Id=EVG|EVG|Page=167}} | |||

While the Retrievers extract resources and minerals from the small [[moon]] held there, the Assemblers used the materials to build components of the [[Halo Array]] and to repair the Ark, if required.{{Ref/Reuse|foundry}}{{Ref/Game|HW2|[[Phoenix Log]] - Forerunner Sentinels}} Assemblers were used alongside [[Extractor Sentinel]]s to construct [[Installation 08]]{{Ref/Book|Enc22|Page=343}}{{Ref/Book|Enc22|Page=356}} | ||
