Zealot (map)
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Template:Ratings Template:New Content Template:Multiplayer Map Infobox
Zealot[1] is a multiplayer map in Halo: Reach. It is set on the Covenant ship Ardent Prayer, most likely a Corvette.[2] It is made up of several levels, each easily accessible to the next through the use of ramps and gravity lifts. One section of the map, the third level which is separated by a shield that players can go through, but projectiles can not, is also exposed to the vacuum of space, in which sound effects are somewhat muffled,[3]. In this area, gravity decreases, allowing players to jump further than in lower tiers.

Trivia
- The map was first seen in the Halo: Reach ViDoc: Carnàge Carnivàle, but was not featured in the Multiplayer Beta.
- Because of the level design, this map has been mistaken for a remake of Midship, despite Bungie claiming that it has nothing to do with it[4]. The map's overall design seems to be set up in a similar way to maps like Midship and Assembly.
- Zealot is one of three levels in the Halo series that truly exposes players to space without glitches, the others being Boarding Action and Cairo Station.
- During production it was called Aftship, a reference to Midship which also took place on a Covenant ship.[5]
- The outer area's low gravity is similar to the low gravity setting in custom games of Halo 3 and Halo: Reach.
- The map now looks darker and more detailed than it did in its first appearance in Carnàge Carnivàle.
- The third level on Zealot looks very much like the outer-hall part of the Covenant corvette, meaning the map may take place on a Covenant corvette.
- The middle area of the second floor appears to be similar to the middle of Assembly, as it is circular and has a hole in the middle to go to the bottom.
- The similarity between Zealot and Heretic may mean that both may take place on the same type of ship.
