The helmet would have been available as part of the Blackguard series of Fractures armor for Halo 3 and Halo: Reach.[1] The helmet would be re-added into the MCC in the November 3 update, but the name was changed to "Blackguard Fallen Equerry", and the cross-shape visor and description were altered.
