List of permutations

During the beta, the player could unlock armor permutations for their Spartan. Most armor was unlocked by ranking up with the game's XP system, however, four sets of armor were unlocked through achievements in Halo: The Master Chief Collection, and by watching Halo: Nightfall on the Halo Channel. Barring Mark VI Gen1, Mark VI Gen1 - Scarred, Nightfall, and Helioskrill, no armor from the beta transferred to Guardians' final release.
