It is evident that the gauntlet is not a particularly widespread or standard-issue piece of equipment within the [[Covenant military]]. Known cases of Sangheili employing the device in the field are extremely scarce, as they typically rely exclusively on the [[Sangheili personal energy shield|energy shielding]] of their [[Sangheili harness|harness]] for protection. In rare cases, when required to supplement their armor shields with additional equipment, Sangheili troops have been issued Kig-Yar shield gauntlets instead, although most Sangheili warriors find using them highly dishonorable.<ref>'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', ''page 349''</ref> | It is evident that the gauntlet is not a particularly widespread or standard-issue piece of equipment within the [[Covenant military]].

A Sangheili point defense gauntlet was used by [[Special Operations Commander]] [[Rtas 'Vadumee]] during the infiltration and then destruction of the ''[[Infinite Succor]]''. 'Vadumee activated the shield when he dueled against [[Kusovai]]; the shield was active along with the [[Energy Sword]] on the same arm, indicating it is likely attached to the user's wrist. | A Sangheili point defense gauntlet was used by [[Special Operations Commander]] [[Rtas 'Vadumee]] during the infiltration and then destruction of the ''[[Infinite Succor]]''.
