Constructors are devices similar to Sentinels in design that mainly repair damage to any Forerunner structure they find, using weak energy beams similar to [[Sentinel Beam]]s. The beams are lethal if in direct contact with an organism. This is unknown to the Constructor though. They are similar in appearance to the [[Covenant]] [[Plasma Pistol]]. In some rare cases however they will attack the player.

The Sentinels will come to their aid if they are attacked, as they are ill-suited for combat, having no weapon systems of their own. However, their beams will damage you if you get caught in the path (on Legendary difficulty their beams can kill in seconds). They also use their beams to lower the shields on [[piston]]s, allowing them to move throughout the [[Sentinel Wall]] quickly. Constructors are encountered only during the levels [[Sacred Icon (Level)|Sacred Icon]] and the [[Quarantine Zone (Level)|Quarantine Zone]] and are distantly visible on the ''[[Halo 3]]'' multiplayer maps, [[Isolation]] and [[Construct]], but they can be seen on [[The Ark (Level)]] (where the light bridge must be activated) and [[The Oracle (Level)|The Oracle]].<ref>''[[Halo 2]]'', level [[Sacred Icon (Level)|Sacred Icon]]</ref>

Also, in [[Halo 3]], A small easter egg can be witnessed, if a player watches one of the groups of constructors on the level [[Construct]].  They will fly normally for a while, but when they near a wall, they will hop like bunnies, before passing out of the map, and to a destination unknown, possibly re-spawning on the other side.
