A gravity boost gives the Chopper short spurts of speed for gap closing potential. Brutes find great joy in using the spike cannons to disorient their prey then activating the boost to ram.[3]

The Bolroci Workshop Attack Bike is a variant in the Chopper line of raiding vehicles, employed by the Banished.[1][2]

Overview

Design details

The Bolroci Workshop Chopper is a design by Bolroci Workshop that utilized the shared knowledge of six disparate Jiralhanae clans.[1][4] The majority of Choppers within the Banished fleet can be traced back to the Bolroci line. It is generally more lightly-armoured than other Chopper variants, but still nonetheless effective in combat.[2]

Like others of the line, the Bolroci Chopper is equipped with twin spike cannons and a sundering ram, used for plowing through infantry and vehicles.[2][3]

Usage

The Bolroci Workshop Chopper is used by the Banished occupation fleet led by Escharum.[1] The Banished made use of this Chopper variant as they fought the United Nations Space Command for control of Installation 07 in 2560.[1]

Variants

  • Catulus Chopper - A modified variant of Chopper personally commissioned by Catulus, a commander within the Banished.[5] The Catulus variant is equipped with gold plating in place of the Banished plating and deploys energy blades on the front and sides when boosting it.[6]

Production notes

During Season 01: Heroes of Reach of Halo Infinite the Chopper was glitched and could not destroy other vehicles by ramming, instead only doing damage while stationary or moving slowly. This was later fixed in Season 02: Lone Wolves.
