The Banished Drop Pod is utilized by the Banished to deploy an individual from high altitudes to the surface.[2]
History
This drop pod saw heavy use during the Battle for Zeta Halo.[3] Drop pods used by the Banished were manufactured by the Kordulaan War-Forge and developed by the Gydrozka workshop.[1]
Gameplay
Halo Infinite
Before the drop pods land, they shine a red light on the ground. Soon after the occupant leaves the drop pod, it overloads like a heavily damaged vehicle, and then explodes harmlessly.[2] Drop pods can transport Brutes, Elites, Hunters, Jackals or Grunts of any rank.[3]
While the drop pod explodes when used to deploy enemies, intact pods can be found across the surface of the ring as non-destructible scenery.[3]
