These Elites have slightly more powerful [[Elite Personal Energy Shield|shields]] than their subordinate blue-clad Minor Domo subordinates, as fitting with their rank. In Halo 2, these shields are somewhat weaker than those of [[Honor Guard Elite]]s, [[Zealot]]s, and [[Heretic Elite]] Majors. On lower difficulties they can take a maximum of three hits on the body, or a single headshot from the [[Sniper Rifle]] or [[Beam Rifle]], and in higher difficulties, they can take up to 4 body shots. | These Elites have slightly more powerful [[Elite Personal Energy Shield|shields]] than their subordinate blue-clad Minor Domo subordinates, as fitting with their rank.

In [[Halo 3]] when Majors are dropped into the battle to aid the [[Master Chief|player]] they always wield [[Plasma Rifles]], although the player can always exchange there weapons with the elites. | |||

They do this far more often when they have support from significant threats such as [[Hunters]], groups of [[Drones]], or [[Jackal Sniper]]s, but almost never attempt it while alone. | Much like Minor Elites on higher difficulty, they will attempt to lure the player into the open.
