| == Tested? ==
| |
|
| |
| Last week, I overheard somebody at Band camp. He claimed to have tested Halo 3 and to have fought some big, new enemy that could break through a Bubble Shield with one hit. When I asked him about it, he said he would like to keep "these things" a secret until the game's out. Personallly, I think he's lying but, you never know.

| |
|
| |
| :Err...you can't "break through" a bubble shield. You have to either wait for it to deactivate (20-30 sec) or get inside the bubble and blow up the generator.
| |
|
| |
| :I know you can't but assuming he isn't lying then that's kind of freaky. However, now he denies ever saying that and generally seems clueless as to what I'm talking about.
| |

| You can walk into a bubble shield or a vehicle can drive throw. Bubble shields are indestructible.[[User talk:Papayaking|Papayaking]] 20:18, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

| == Not Covenaut, or Not in Halo 3 ==
| |
|
| |
| If anyone saw the leaked scans of the instruction manuel, it didn't show the Sharquoi in the book. So if it is Covenaut, it most likly wouldn't be in Halo 3. Then again, it might not be a Covenaut race and all. [[User:Trooper117|Trooper117]] 22:11, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
| |
|
| |
| Covenaut? Is that anything like Covenant? There's probably some new species judging by the way bungie's talking, but then again i wouldn't be surprised if they were just editing out the word brute to jack up hype for no reason. Also, the manual leak might have been bungie, cause absolutely nothing new was revealed in it. Except what button you push you turn on your flashlight. Of course, "Sharquoi" could also be the covenant word for that really big gun thing that shoots down a longsword.

| == Just a tactical maneuver, maybe. ==

| Perhaps the Sharquoi is merely a tactic for fighting close to a homeworld. Or maybe just a sandwich maker, who knows.[[User:Metaridley|Metaridley]] 19:12, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

| To me, the image looks quite a bit like an Engineer, this would make sense because people knew about them since the first book. Though, saying that, the Covenant didn't start experimenting with Forerunner tech until a few ages later.--[[User:Hexhunter|Hexhunter]] 13:25, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

| == It could also be possible: ==
| |
|
| |
| If the sequence followed is right, then the listing should be something like this:
| |
|
| |
| Elite guardian; The Prophets (Mercy, Truth, Regret); Elite guardian
| |
| ----------------------------------------------
| |
| Brute Jackal Grunt
| |
|
| |
| Elite Drones Hunters
| |
|
| |
| Even though Bungie is infamous for referencing to earlier games, it doesn't make sense to join the two species as being the same. Apart from that, given the species that have been encountered until now, among the ones that the Covenant have absorbed, the top left has to be the Brute species more than anything simply because of the fact that they are the only ones without armor. Going off the chronology of the game itself, the species is unknown until Halo 2, since the Elites left the covenant after the rebellion the Brutes would've taken their place, armor modified to fit. As such it makes sense that the Brutes are the ones being referenced to because, they are deadly without armor, they are large (about as large as Hunters), and are "Very freaking dangerous."(Frank O' Connor).

| == Not Engineers ==
| |
|
| |
| It isn't possible for them to be Engineers either because by their very nature they are fragile, float on gas sacs, and don't have eyes. The top-left form can't be engineer because it is large, hulking, and dangerous. It might be the Halo form of Drinol, modified to fit Halo canon, but most certainly not an engineer.

| |
| == Other possibility ==
| |
|
| |
| It is also likely that instead of the Drinniol form being the one used in the Covenant, they used it instead for the Flood stalker form, making the larger form of the pure form the Hulk instead.
| |
| Nessman007 says:
| |
| For eons have I watched, listened to you misinterpret. This "Sharquoi" is not a deleted species. This "Sharquoi" is the Covenant name for a ship. And that it represents is the Forerunner Dreadnought. The Dreadnought can be described as "very freaking dangerous" as it is the most powerful the Covenant has. Its weapons were probably not removed at all. It is also "very freaking dangerous" because it allows easy access to the ark. That allows for the ability. to destroy sentient life.

| ==Canon Status==
| |
| Okay, so with this [https://twitter.com/game_fabricator/status/297177431750610944 Tweet: ''You mean what we used to call the Drinol?''] we've now confirmed that "Sharquoi" and "[[Drinol]]" are one and the same. That being said, the language of the tweet is somewhat ambiguous. "What we used to call the Drinol" could mean "we called it Sharquoi before we changed it to Drinol," or alternatively "that thing we used to call 'the Drinol' before changing it to Sharquoi." Personally, I think he means the former.
| |
|
| |
| So that means the chronology is:
| |
| # In ''Halo 2'' production they created a beast called the Sharquoi and wrote about in [[Conversations from the Universe]]
| |
| # At some point they changed its name to Drinol, but didn't change its mention in Conversations from the Universe.
| |
| # The Drinol was later cut from the game entirely.
| |
|
| |
| Unless I'm very much mistaken, this would make the Sharquoi deleted material, and therefore non-canon. It got a vague one-word mention in ''Halo 2'' bonus material, and hasn't even been mentioned, let alone appeared, in any of the subsequent games, novels, comics, or indeed any piece of ''Halo'' media. As Marcus Lehto said "There's a reason he never made it into the game." He sucked, he got cut, he's non-canon.--[[File:Emblem 1.jpg|20px]][[User:Rusty-112|<span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">''' Rusty '''</span><span style="font-size:13pt;color:red;">'''- '''</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">'''112 '''</span>]] 20:42, 1 February 2013 (EST)

| :I'd say to use Sharquoi as the actual name, given that it appears on an actual canon document. Since it appears in Conversations, that means Sharquoi still do exist in the ''Halo'' universe, just that they were never deployed like the Covenant planned to. As for its second name "Drinol", one could speculate that Drinol would have been the human term for it, and Sharquoi is the Sangheili name, just like with Hunter and Mgalekgolo or Elite and Sangheili.

| :I would think Drinol was planned to be used in ''Halo'' and changed to Sharquoi in ''Halo 2'' before it got cut again. Bungie's O' Brave New World ViDoc did show us the Drinol as an actual character object in the third-person shooter phase of Halo. With that being said, I suggest merging Drinol into Sharquoi (along with the information in the former article).— <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 21:35, 1 February 2013 (EST)
