GOBLIN-class Mjolnir is a variant of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor [GEN2].[1]

Overview

Development history

The UNSC Infinity's Fireteam Shadow tested GOBLIN suits during the Requiem Campaign. Production models of the suit were also not fitted with sensor-warping technology that was rumored in the prototypes.[1]

Usage

The GOBLIN suit was notably used by Spartan Horatio Fry, of Fireteam Shadow, during the Requiem Campaign in 2558. During Operation: VERTICAL UMBRAGE on February 14, Fry used his GOBLIN suit to board the Zanar-pattern light cruiser, Panom's Canticle, in a boarding action ultimately resulting in the ship's destruction.[2][3]

Argonaut was first introduced as an armor set in Halo 5: Guardians. The suit is not a fully-original design, and employs several Halo 4 armor pieces including the EVA shoulders, Ricochet forearms and Recruit legs. The Argonaut set has two alternate skin designs; Idmon and Nestor.
