Warrior is a Sangheili rank used by the post-war Covenant.[1] The Warrior class is mostly a collection of the most experienced and seasoned Sangheili troops from the Human-Covenant War.
Overview
The Sangheili Warrior class is entirely made up of seasoned war veterans who survived the last Human-Covenant War, that did not operate in a leadership position, but took many lives. Due to this, they are rarely encountered due to their low numbers.[2] Known for their powerful energy shields and usually-devastating weaponry, Warriors are considered some of the most fearsome members in the new Covenant order.[3] They are extremely aggressive and durable fighters, and are particularly devastating when fighting in groups.
Equipment
Armor
Warriors wear golden armor with green highlights, denoting their status as field commanders.[4] In Warzone this harness is often colored maroon.
Their armor, especially the helmet, is quite similar in appearance to that worn by Sangheili Generals in service to the Covenant; however, it is a duller shade of gold and leaves the wearer's forearms exposed. The helmet is an elaborate, accentuated design. The pauldrons use a shield-bolstering pauldron system to increase shield strength. The cuisse is of the spaded design. The greaves are high framed and are ridge-locked, with ornamental raised-claws.[2]
Equipment
Warriors are typically armed with Type-51 carbines, Type-33 Needlers, and Type-55 storm rifles. They also frequently wield Type-33 fuel rod guns and can throw plasma grenades at long distances.
Tactics
The easiest way to bring down a Sangheili Warrior is to disable its shields with an Overcharged Plasma Pistol, then follow up with a precision headshot. Players can also use a Binary Rifle or Sniper Rifle to kill the warrior in one or two shots. Active Camouflage also allows players to sneak up on a Warrior and assassinate it from behind. When facing a Warrior wielding a Fuel Rod Gun, one should always take cover and wait for it to stop shooting before returning fire.
