The Locus variant was manufactured by [[Lethbridge Industrial]]. Tested at the [[Lethbridge Combat Fields]], the armor system is a contemporary stealth kit conceived specifically for tactical and strategic infiltration with focus on survivability and durability. Despite its exotic design, the primary differential from similar systems is its incredible durability in the field. | The Locus variant was manufactured by [[Lethbridge Industrial]].

Lethbridge also tested the armor for both resiliency and its attention to stealth and anti-security measures outside the megacity of [[Lethbridge]] on Concord in a number of heavily secured facilities lying across [[Corsica]]'s hardscrabble northern outskirts. These tests confirmed that Locus was fully able to survive extreme opposition and firepower. | Lethbridge also tested the armor for both resiliency and its attention to stealth and anti-security measures outside the megacity of [[Lethbridge]] on Concord in a number of heavily secured facilities lying across [[Corsica]]'s hardscrabble northern outskirts.

'''Edge unlock''': Legendary REQ card | |||
*'''Helmet description''': The LOCUS' passive cyberintrusion package and [[UNSC battle network|battlenet]] cache allows the user to stay aware of the strategic situation while remaining invisible to any hackers in the network. | |||
*'''Body description''': Designed to provide an answer to threats arising during assaults on heavily defended tactical nodes, the grim visage of LOCUS armor is a common sight among Spartan boarding parties and special responses teams. | |||

In ''Halo 5: Guardians'' due to the "Body" having a predefined customisation this armor set permanently has the following parts from ''Halo 4'': | |||
*'''Body''': [[AVIATOR-class Mjolnir|Aviator]] | |||
*'''Shoulders''': Aviator | |||

==Trivia== | |||
*In ''Halo 4'', Locus is one of four helmet-only armor sets alongside the [[Deadeye]], [[Scanner]], and [[Strider]] helmets. | |||
*In ''Halo 4's'' full body renders, and ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'', the Locus armor is the same as the [[RECRUIT-class Mjolnir|Recruit armor]]. | |||
*The body of the Locus armor in ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'' is the same as the [[AVIATOR-class Mjolnir|Aviator armor]]. | |||
*The head of a [[Destinypedia:Thrall|Hive Thrall]] (an enemy from [[Bungie]]'s game ''[[Destinypedia:Destiny|Destiny]]''), bears a striking resemblance to the Locus armor's helmet. | |||
