As befitting the great honor associated with the title, each Arbiter of the Covenant is issued a unique set of traditional body armor.

Description

Every Arbiter's armor is designed and built to fit their shape and size, but the armor itself always follow an age-old traditional design. Unlike the sleek, glossy armor worn by most Sangheili, the Arbiter's armor is made of a dark silvery-bronze metal and is more akin to a suit of human medieval armor. Notably, it includes a distinctive helment with a curved hawk-like "beak" covering the face. The armor is secured to the Arbiter's combat suit by blue form-fitting straps.

Technical Details

Like the standard Sangheili Combat harness, the Arbiter's armor is equipped with an energy shield. It also possesses active-camouflage capabilities, but this feature can only be enabled for a limited time, as opposed to the armor of Spec-Ops Sangheili.
