'''Invincibility''' is a new piece of [[Equipment]] featured only in ''[[Halo 3]]''. | |||
It gives the user a brief period of Invulnerability lasting for about 10 seconds. In order to obtain it, the player is required to kill a [[Brute Chieftain]] without having it activated. Like the [[Gravity Hammer]] is to the [[Fist of Rukt]], this Equipment originates from Tartarus's [[Modified Invincibility]]. | |||
Invincibility | |||
== | ==Operation== | ||
When activated, the player is covered in shining white bands. It is known to be possessed by all Brute Chieftains that wield a [[Gravity Hammer]] unhindered, (not the [[Fuel Rod Gun]] [[War Chieftain|Brute War Chieftain]], whether or not they wield a [[Plasma Cannon]]) shooting them is simply useless, as you cannot harm them in any way, while it is activated. It is true, though, that assassinations are still effective. Although this makes the game slightly easier for the players, it does make it incredibly cheap by defying the term "invincibility". | |||
In [[Campaign]], it can be found on some dead Brute Chieftains that haven't used the power-up, but this is a rare occurrence, as they will usually activate it the instant they are attacked. In addition to being obtainable from dead Brute Chieftains, there is an Invincibility in the level "[[Halo (Halo 3 Level)|Halo]]" on [[Easy]], [[Normal]], and [[Heroic]] difficulties. After going up the staircase, face the middle of the door, then turn around the other way and walk into the tunnel. This makes the battle with [[343 Guilty Spark (Monitor)|343 Guilty Spark]] a lot easier, since you cannot get hit by the powerful beam. Note: This is only found on difficulties [[Easy]], [[Normal]] and [[Heroic]]. It cannot be found there on [[Legendary]], possible to make the level more of a challenge. | |||
It has a similar appearance to the Cloaking equipment, except that it glows a gold color, rather than a cool blue color. Its symbol on the [[HUD]] is two overlapping, intersecting ovals with a dot at the center. | |||
It is not present in [[Multiplayer]], unless you edit game-play options where you can make players invincible. '''Note''': The [[Guardians]] can still kill you, apart from them your only real danger is from being assassinated from behind. | |||
In campaign, though you will be invulnerable from almost all forms of attack, you may still die from falling, having a large object such as a [[Scorpion]] crush you, or by having tons of [[Infection Forms]] infect you. Invulnerable characters like the Arbiter who become enemies by you after you kill them can also kill you very easily. | |||
==Gallery== | By [[Modding]], you can place the equipment on [[Isolation]] or [[Cold Storage]]. Apparently, this equipment was intended to be available only on [[Flood]] multiplayer levels. | ||
== Disadvantages == | |||
*Players or [[AI]]s who have activated the Invincible equipment can still be killed by being assassinated, crushed by large objects, or falling from a great height. | |||
*It only lasts for about 10 seconds, so it should only be used as a last resort, not the first chance you get. | |||
*When the equipment is deployed, it makes the player glow a gold/white/purple color, much like an [[Overshield]], therefore making you more visible when used and might attract unwanted attention towards you. | |||
*It is still visible even with the aid of cloaking or (probably) [[Active Camouflage]]. | |||
== Trivia == | |||
*The easiest way to get one, is to kill a Brute Chieftain in one shot or from far away using a [[Sniper Rifle]], which obviously doesn't give him the chance to use it. Notable ways include the [[Spartan Laser]] and [[Rocket Launcher]], and on easier difficulties, a [[Beam Rifle]] or Sniper Rifle head shot. Grenades hardly ever make a one hit on them, with the exception of the [[Incendiary grenade]]. | |||
*The Invincibility has an analogous effect to [[Tartarus]]'s shields, which he uses in the last level of [[Halo 2]]. | |||
*It is most useful when used for running at large groups of enemies, as they are unable to harm you without making assassination. | |||
*The Invincibility symbol resembles a Helium atom. This may be because the power that is exerted by this equipment can be compared to that of an atom,(or sub-atomic and elementary particle) when disintegrated, 'split' or charged. | |||
*It is not present in [[Multiplayer]], even [[Forge]], due to it being overpowered. However, it can be obtained through modding on some maps. | |||
*If you make the Arbiter an enemy by killing him/allies, and use the Invincibility, he can still kill you with one plasma bolt. | |||
*Following in the ways of Tartarus, only [[Brute Chieftains]] with [[Gravity Hammers]] utilize Invincibility in [[Halo 3]] [[Campaign]]. | |||
*This is very similar to the the shield players get in [[Rocket Race]] as they can only be [[melee|meleed]] or assassinated from behind. | |||
