Template:Ratings Template:Covenant Rank Infobox The Unggoy Minor is the lowest and most common Covenant Unggoy rank. They are almost always infantry and are the most common infantry unit in the Covenant Army.

Description

Minors are the lowest form of rank in the Unggoy ranking system, essentially being little more than cannon fodder, although they prove much more of a threat in large numbers. They are one of the most common enemies, rivaled only by the Flood Infection Forms. However, on higher difficulties such as Heroic and Legendary, they became somewhat uncommon, mostly replaced with Unggoy Majors and Ultras.

Bearing light-orange methane breathers and armor, Sangheili and Jiralhanae often send them into battle with little or no compunction.

Minors are the rough equivalent of the UNSC Private. Theoretically equal in rank to Kig-yar Minors, they will often be seen in groups with several other Unggoy Minors, usually being led by a Unggoy Major, Sangheili, or Jiralhanae. Minors exhibit various combat behaviors when their commander is killed; the most common combat behavior being to simply retreat and seek cover, or arming themselves with plasma grenades and attempting to perform a suicide attack by charging towards the enemy.

Trivia

  • Minor Grunts usually do not throw Plasma Grenades, but when they do, they sometimes throw them at point-blank range and accidentally kill themselves instead of the player. This is true and becomes much more dangerous when the Catch skull is activated.
  • Unggoy Minors appear in almost every level where you meet Covenant in all five Halo games.
