I belive the Spartans should get the Katana and Elites get the Honor Guard Pike, both should be useable in multiplayer, as long as the Katana was changed to Covanant/Forunner & UNSC tech so people would stop complaining how "OMGZZZ HOWZ DAT METALZ ZWORDS BLOKIN DAT PLAZMAS ENERGY ZWORDS???!!!!!11 :O". Like make the blade part Covanant energy and the back part Forunner, and say that it is an ONI prototype.
Or make them non-usable, for show only. No complaining.

Instead of the sword. Couldn't the Elites have the spear thing from halo 2 (if i remember there was a level with two elite honor guards one with a sword and one with a spear looking thingy. *I might have toatally mistaken it with something else but im pretty sure it was a spear*
I think the proper name is pole-ax, but yeah. I hadn't even thought of that. you get 1 internet cookie, D0nald.

Neither. Bungie has stated again and again they cannot add new armor into the game. Plus, your in the wrong forum.

There wouldn't be any complaining if it was made right, and there is still people that complain since they can not use it in Halo 3, therefore two weapons added and thousands more awesome options in Halo : Reach.

TheEndIsNear NL is right, i'm talking about adding it in for reach, not updating halo 3

elites should have the honor guard staf from halo 2.

Besides wanting the honor guard armor and spear for the elites, everyone should know by now, that their wont a katana for the spartans.

Instead, their will be a Machete! or, at least their should be a machete.

instead of honor guard pikes they should get an afro...jk

oh, how about a flaming head for elites... but it's a purple plasma flame =)

I always thought it would be cool to replace the samurai sword with the sword shown in the picture for for legendary and heroic modes it looks more spartan like than the samurai sword.

  • 07.07.2009 6:28 PM PDT

NO it's a spartan thing.

If you must have something mabye a different color energy sword when you use it, assuming you have it in hand. Perhaps a High ranking Elite armor. Golden armor (white is already there)?

  • 07.07.2009 6:38 PM PDT

I would not mind an Elite "Katana" if they still have that kind of thing. Maybe with better armor perms, deeper customization, and selection of weapons on your body would be cool. Like an additional track: Head, Shoulders, Body, Weapon.

The ODST 251st

yes i have an idea for the elite katana counterpart. You know the elite honor guards in H2? Simply use their pike as a replacement. Either that or have the Arbiter's armour.

Gt = xKryeZ
Halo 3 1750 G
Halo 3: ODST 1000 G
Halo Reach 1400 G
Halo CEA
Halo 4

as a recon counterpart maybe the elite honor guard armor from halo 2 that would be awesome! and for a katana counterpart maybe a flag like the brutes had in Halo 2 and the spear that the elites have in halo 2 would be even better

otherwise the arbiter armor is cool maybe the one in halo wars where its massive!

and btw why cant you wear a black armor unless its a forced color black is the coolest color

"Were it so easy...."

I think they should be around because Elites are still an important part of halo. When I played Halo combat evolved the first time, I've wished that elites could be playable.
What comes to the subject, elites should have the honor guard armor =)

I just checked behind me for spys!

and I dont think Elites need a katana, heck I dont even think spartans look good with one.

I agree that the katana is not just overrated, but it doesnt go with the rest of the armor. Hayabusa or not.

I am the leader of the Lone wolves clan

instead of having a sword or spear or anything like that they should have a flag with the covanite symble on it and instead of it beyin on the back it could be on the shoulder
