*'''Challenges''': Halo 4 players can take part in Challenges, specifically crafted objectives within the game, to gain bonus experience points (XP) which can be used to advance their Spartan Rank. Challenges can occur on both a daily and a weekly cadence, spanning Campaign, Spartan Ops, and War Games modes. Additional Challenges will be offered through Waypoint outside of this scheduled cadence. Challenges will vary from time to time, but current progress can be observed under Career > Challenges within the Start menu. | *'''Challenges''': Halo 4 players can take part in Challenges, specifically crafted objectives within the game, to gain bonus experience points (XP) which can be used to advance their Spartan Rank.

*'''Commendations''': Throughout the course of playing Halo 4, players are rewarded as they accomplish various tasks in the game such as the effective use of a particular weapon or the neutralization of a specific enemy type. These awards accumulate as they are accomplished, eventually rewarding the player with a Commendation. The type of Commendations available to players may vary, but one's current progress can be observed under Career > Commendations within the Start menu. | *'''Commendations''': Throughout the course of playing Halo 4, players are rewarded as they accomplish various tasks in the game such as the effective use of a particular weapon or the neutralization of a specific enemy type.

*'''Specializations''': During their career as a Spartan, players are offered Specializations though a variety of channels, allowing them to enlist in specific rank paths that come with armor sets, mods, emblems, and a variety of other components. Once a player has advanced through the standard fifty (50) rank levels allotted to Spartans, they will have access to a selection of Specializations. These paths are composed of ten rank levels each, with the player, once opting for the Specialization, must advance through in order to improve their rank and before being allowed to enlist in a separate Specialization. | *'''Specializations''': During their career as a Spartan, players are offered Specializations though a variety of channels, allowing them them to enlist in specific rank paths that come with armor sets, mods, emblems, and a variety of other components.

Augmenting many individual Unggoy detachments is the battle-hardened Grunt Heavy class. Typically found with full-face protective rebreathers, enhanced optical sensors, and ultra-dense battle harnesses, this class is composed of experienced and formidable Unggoy warriors who are capable in a variety of combat. Perhaps most noticeable of Grunt Heavy class is their favoring of the brutal Fuel Rod Cannon, making encounters with even just one potentially dangerous. | Augmenting many individual Unggoy detachments is the battle-hardened Grunt Heavy class.

Easily the most common among the current Kig-Yar population, Storm Jackals represent the tip of the spear of the Covenant military body. Despite being lightly armored, this role is equipped with personal energy shields which provide resilient yet versatile cover whenever needed.

The Jackal Ranger is yet another component of the Covenant's impressive extra-vehicular activity combat arm, used within infantry-based engagements in space and, to a lesser extent, within environments which require high mobility across vertical terrain. Jackal Rangers are sealed inside heavily armored EVA-enabled suits and their armaments can vary based on operation, though they generally use marksmen weapons such as the Covenant Carbine and are comprehensively trained in mid-range to long-range combat. | The Jackal Ranger is yet another component of the Covenant's impressive extra-vehicular activity combat arm, used within infantry-based engagements in space and, to a lesser extent, within environments which require high mobility across vertical terrain.

In the centuries-old tradition of Covenant military, the role of Jackal Sniper is one that is viewed critical during most groundside engagements. Genetically, Kig-Yar are already born with innate abilities that benefit scouts and snipers. Nevertheless, this class is still outfitted with moderate armor and an ocular enhancement helmet which is smart-linked to their marksmen weapon of choice. The vision optimization employed here allows them to sight and target enemies at extreme distances with either the Beam Rifle or Covenant Carbine. | In the centuries-old tradition of Covenant military, the role of Jackal Sniper is one that is viewed critical during most groundside engagements.

Generally operating in a support role amongst Kig-Yar trackers and scouts, the Jackal Heavy class is the most experienced and skilled of their species. Utilizing impressive armor which showcases their station, intimidates enemies and provides excellent protection, these troopers are typically deployed with Needlers and personal energy shields, allowing them to provide substantial opposition for any foes who encounter them. The combination of speed, agility, resistance, and firepower make the Jackal Heavy class a force to be reckoned with. | Generally operating in a support role amongst Kig-Yar trackers and scouts, the Jackal Heavy class is the most experienced and skilled of their species.

Mgalekgolo variations have been encountered in a variety of carapaces, though most are too similar for outsiders to make a distinction. Massive in size, imposing in power, and brutally violent in combat, the Hunter usually represents the Covenant's last resort option-a pair of living mobile armored units which can engage a large number of enemy infantry and vehicles. The Hinter is usually equipped with a destructive Assault Cannon and an enormous arm-fused shield which is believed to be composed of the same raw materials as he battleplates on Covenant capital ships. | Mgalekgolo variations have been encountered in a variety of carapaces, though most are too similar for outsiders to make a distinction.

An overwhelming number of Sangheili troops currently fall within the Storm Elite class; they are effectively the iron heart of the Covenant. Despite their substantial numbers, Storm Elites can still lead smaller detachments of Unggoy and Kig-Yar, and are in turn lead by Elite Commanders and even Zealots. Although a Storm Elite's armor is simple and sleek, it is more than competent for combat purposes and is typically used in conjunction with a Storm Rifle, or in some rare cases, a Covenant Carbine. | An overwhelming number of Sangheili troops currently fall within the Storm Elite class; they are effectively the iron heart of the Covenant.

Optimized to engage in combat operations within exotic environments such as space. radioactive sites and other hazardous locations, Elite Rangers have been employed by the Covenant since its very inception. The Elite Ranger role operates similar to that of the Elite Storm, despite requiring the use of extra-vehicular activity equipment, marginally heavier armor and gravity-mitigating thruster packs. The vast majority of military ops deploying Elite Rangers are EVA-only engagements, however some Ranger squads are deployed to terrestrial sites where their thruster packs provide a unique advantage against their enemies. | Optimized to engage in combat operations within exotic environments such as space. radioactive sites and other hazardous locations, Elite Rangers have been employed by the Covenant since its very inception.

The most common Covenant leaders on the battlefield are Elite Commanders, operating in tandem with local Sangheili, Kig-Yar and Unggoy combat squads. These battle-hardened soldiers, most who've served within the Covenant for decades, provide essential strategic and tactical prowess in the battlefield.

THE T-44 PHANTOM IS AN EARLIER VARIANT OF THE NOTABLE LINE OF COVENANT DROPSHIPS. ITS PROMINENCE IS LARGELY ATTRIBUTED TO ITS ARMOR'S RESILIENCY IN BOTH ATMOSPHERIC AND EXOATMOSPHERIC ENVIRONMENTS, ITS EXCEPTIONAL SPEED AND MANEUVERABILITY, AND ITS REASONABLY DISTRIBUTED FIREPOWER. THESE FACTORS MAKE THE PHANTOM ONE OF THE MOST SIGNIFICANT VEHICLES DEPLOYED BY THE COVENANT DURING THE ASSAULT OR OCCUPATION OF A GIVEN SITE. | THE T-44 PHANTOM IS AN EARLIER VARIANT OF THE NOTABLE LINE OF COVENANT DROPSHIPS.
