Minor is a Covenant Jackal rank.

Rank

They are effectively equal to the UNSC Private. Donning a blue shield on their right arm, they occasionally lead a few Grunts into battle. However, they will retreat if their shield is depleted.

Combat

Minor Jackals always carry Plasma Pistols. They tend to overcharge the pistols, and use their shields to block enemy fire. The best way to kill them is to use a Frag Grenade, but you can use a Pistol or Sniper Rifle so that you can aim for places on their bodies not protected by shields if you're a good marksman. Note an overcharged Plasma Pistol will destroy their shields as well, but it will recharge eventually. Meleeing them is also effective, but risky and not advisable on higher difficulty settings.

Appearances

They seem to not like boarding UNSC ships, because they are never seen inlevels concerning them. Minors simply love to bombard you on the ground, however. Ironically, they are the Arbiter's allies only on the level Sacred Icon.
