Also known as:

Skimmers

 

"I do not understand the infatuation with these skittering thrustbugs, brother. The Skimmers present more nuisance than aid to our efforts. I am convinced they - much like their leader - have their own agenda."
— Grenadier Dalkura to Loft-Captain Gethmald[1]

Gasgira, also nicknamed Skimmers,[1] are a species commanded by the Harbinger during the Installation 07 conflict.[2][3]

Overview

Anatomy and physiology

Skimmers have two arms, with three fingers on each. They also have four legs, with a large toe, and a smaller one higher up the leg. They are quite small, with a disproportionately large head. They make use of thruster "wings" which they use to maneuver. They wear armor on their torso, head and "wings", red or white depending on rank.[2] Underneath their helmets, they possess oral tentacles similar to those of the Harbinger.

Gameplay

Halo Infinite

The Skimmers make use of weapons from any faction, carrying them from the hip as the weapon hangs below them. They primarily use the Shock rifle[2] as well as VK78 Commandos and M41 SPNKRs. All ranks throw Dynamo grenades. They have weak spots on their head and thrusters/wings. If killed by shooting a weak spot, they explode in a burst of purple flame.
