After the Battle of Installation 04, he was honestly ashamed for his failure at Halo, and only wanted to regain his honor dying for the Prophets. He begun to doubt their words after the betrayal of Tartarus and his encounter with the Gravemind, but he still remained stubbornly attached to his faith. When he heard the truth of the rings from 343 Guilty Spark, he finally accepted it and tried to offer peace to Tartarus, who refused.

After Thel got betrayed by the Prophets, he developed a hatred toward the Prophets, wanting revenge for his betrayal. After he learned and accepted the truth about the Halos, he also gained respect for the humans. He may have even felt sort of guilt for his past actions towards them, as he prevented Rtas from completely glassing Earth even though that meant risking a Flood outbreak. He respects particularly Johnson and the Chief, despite trouble the SPARTANs had caused him in the past, grieving over Johnson's death and the Chief's disappearance.

In spite of his very understandable resentment of the Prophets, the hatred Thel' Vadam has towards the [[Jiralhanae]] does not appear to be as strong or destructive as that of other [[Sangheili]] such as his friend Rtas Vadum; one example of this is when the Arbiter tried to reason with [[Tartarus]] in Installation 05's Control Room (though this does not mean he's that ''fond'' of them as a race either). He is shown to be true to his title "Arbiter" as he often tries to negotiate with some of his other enemies (e.g. Drones) and will only kill wave after wave of enemies if he has to. He has deep respect for his fellow Sangheili (part of it being shown in his first meeting with Rtas 'Vadum, and the things he says when he crouches by bodies of dead Elites in Halo 3).
