Summary

The overshield technology is used by the Covenant to enhance their Elite warrior's shields by a factor of three. It can be used by any Spartans that might come upon it. During multiplayer it is temporary and gradually deteriorates.

It looks simply like a ball of energy encased in a glass cube. Once the user breaks the glass container, the energy dumps directly into the nearest energy field and increases it for a limited time. This theory hasn't been proven, because hardly any Covenant technology has been recovered intact by UNSC forces.

While present in both Halo 1's campaign and multiplayer, in Halo 2 it can only be found in multiplayer.
