"I rewrote your suit's firmware while you were out."

— Cortana shortly before the Battle of Requiem.^[3]

Mark VI MOD is a MJOLNIR armor variant of MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark VI modified by Cortana^[1] while stranded on the UNSC Forward Unto Dawn,^[3] with a MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor [GEN2] variant produced by ONI's Watershed Division.^[2]

GEN1 overview[edit]

Design details[edit]

Mark VI MOD closely resembles an earlier line of Mark IV armor.^[1] The suit's firmware was modified, altering the HUD^[3] and its compatibility with Covenant armor plugins.^[4] Mark VI MOD also includes a built-in thruster system enabling John-117 to slow his descent while in free fall and propel himself forward in zero gravity.^[5]

Development history[edit]

Referred to as Mark VI MOD,^[6] the Mark VI Mjolnir armor worn by MCPO John-117 following the end of the Human-Covenant War was updated by UNSC AI Cortana^[1] during their four years and seven months of cryosleep aboard the UNSC Forward Unto Dawn.^[3] Cortana used manufacturing and diagnostic systems to repair and alter John's armor.^[7]^[8]

During her time on the Dawn, Cortana also updated the suit's firmware,^[3] and during their time on Requiem, Cortana added a soft patch to the firmware to allow compatibility with Covenant armor plugins.^[4]

Usage[edit]

Mark VI MOD was exclusively used by John-117, first being used during the Battle of Requiem after he woke up on the UNSC Forward Unto Dawn on July 21, 2557.^[3]

This armor was heavily damaged during the Mission to Installation 03 on July 26, 2557^[9] and replaced by a similar GEN2 Mjolnir armor variant.^[10]

GEN2 overview[edit]

Design details[edit]

Like most GEN2 MJOLNIR suits in 2558 the GEN2 Mark VI MOD had an extensive built-in thruster system far more advanced than the thrusters built into the GEN1 Mark VI MOD. These allowed for extensive movement options both in zero gravity and in-atmosphere environments.^[11]

Development history[edit]

Following the events on Gamma Halo, John-117 upgraded to the GEN2 platform.^[10]^[2] This suit is still designated Mark VI MOD.^[12] The upgrade was made by ONI's Watershed Division.^[13] The GEN2 Mark VI MOD shoulder pads were adapted into and mass-produced for the GEN3 Mark VII armor, being renamed as UA/AHALA. They were designed by Dr. Catherine Halsey and Watershed Division, and manufactured by the Materials Group.^[14]

Usage[edit]

John-117 used the GEN2 Mark VI MOD extensively from shortly after his Installation 03 deployment to after the Battle of Genesis.^[15] During the Battle of Meridian, the helmet's visor was cracked during a fight between John-117 and Spartan-IV Jameson Locke.^[16] Shortly before Operation: WOLFE John-117 had begun wearing a GEN3 version of the Mark VI.^[17]^[18]

In-game information[edit]

Halo 5: Guardians[edit]

While Mark VI MOD itself wasn't available in Halo 5: Guardians, various parts from MOD are present on the NOBLE armor set, most notably the gauntlets, boots, and knee guards.

Halo Infinite[edit]

Mark VI MOD would be formally introduced in Halo Infinite, with the UA/AHALA shoulder pads being released during Season 03: Echoes Within. These shoulders would be made cross-core with the release of Season 05: Reckoning. Mark VI MOD would see a fuller release during the appropriately named Blue Team Operation, with the armor set being modelled after Halo 5's GEN2 variant. It was made available through the Shop.

Armor	Manufacturer	Lore	Rarity	Introduced In	Unlock Requirements
Mark VI MOD [GEN2]	Watershed Division	Master Chief and his fellow SPARTAN-II super-soldiers have consistently been the recipients of substantial investment from ONI. This elite group is always prioritized when it comes to evaluating the latest advancements in Mjolnir powered assault armor technology, including being the first to test GEN2 Mjolnir armor and its novel subsystems for Watershed Division skunkworks. By being the first to test new Mjolnir armor prototypes, veteran Spartans provide valuable feedback and insights, which in turn helps refine and enhance the technology for broader use.	Legendary	Blue Team	Purchase either: "Blue Team" for 3,900 cR "Halsey Special" for 2,200 cR
X60 Protective Suite	Watershed Division	Upgraded filter pack and up-armor attachment undergoing field trials with Silver and Gold Team.
