:::Either "Zealot" is an actual rank, or "Field Master/Commander" is, going by the fact that all Halo: CE and Halo 2 era gold armoured Elites are "Zealot Field Commanders" by Braidenvl's source. And if neither of those titles are ranks then ''what are'' these gold split-jawed bastards? xD | :::Either "Zealot" is an actual rank, or "Field Master/Commander" is, going by the fact that all Halo: CE and Halo 2 era gold armoured Elites are "Zealot Field Commanders" by Braidenvl's source.

:::This may be a stretch, but perhaps they hold both titles of "Zealot" and "Field Master", whilst "General" is their actual rank. I come to this conclusion because the newer matrial Jugus mentions describes "Zealot" as more of an ideology than rank. Whilst the EVG and Encyclopedia appear to confirm General as a rank. Whilst I agree that Ship Master is likely just a title, as we've seen various ranking Elites assume the role. | :::This may be a stretch, but perhaps they hold both titles of "Zealot" and "Field Master", whilst "General" is their actual rank.

:::It would mean that all golden Elites are in fact "Generals", whilst "Zealot", "Field Master", "Ship Master", "Fleet Master" and possibly also "Supreme Commander" are all titles which can be more loosely applied. Imperial Admiral and Field Marshal are obviously ranks of their own. The only issue would be that the Zealot-subset in Halo: Reach, below Field Marshals lack an actual rank name. Though that still doesn't exactly make this theory invalid. I can't see any glarish flaws in this reasoning anyway. Can you guys? I'm just trying to make sense of it all hehe. -[[User:TheLostJedi|'''<span style="color:maroon">TheLostJedi</span>''']] 23:14, 8 November 2011 (EST) | :::It would mean that all golden Elites are in fact "Generals", whilst "Zealot", "Field Master", "Ship Master", "Fleet Master" and possibly also "Supreme Commander" are all titles which can be more loosely applied.
