Sangheili personal energy shield: Difference between revisions

The Elite's armor generates a recharging energy shield that protects against both ballistic fire and plasma weaponry; however after taking enough damage the shields will collapse and the Elite will be vulnerable to further attacks. Like MJOLNIR shields, this shield recharges after being depleted and can be enhanced by the [[Covenant]]'s [[overshield]] technology. There appear to be differences in the strength of the shields, and different ranks of Elites have different amounts of power and recharge capacity in their shield. For example, a [[sniper rifle]] headshot will kill a [[Sangheili Minor]], but a [[Sangheili Ultra]]'s shield can withstand up to four headshots.
