The Mythic Threads (Halo 3) (ODST) (Reach)

The Huntards are just as easy as in Halo 3, even on Legendary, hell even on Mythic. I too want to crap my pants when I see one!

All of the enemies need to be beefed up in general, methinks.

Elites need to be brought back as enemies, and even then they need a redesign to stop them from looking like stupid dinosaurs. See: This

Jackals need to look... less retarded. I thought that this was a pretty cool design.

Grunts should still be funny in a cowardice sort of way, but I do think that they need some more menacing dialogue from time to time. I was quite fond of this design for the Grunts.

I pretty much agree with the first post regarding Hunters, but I think that, again, they need a more intimidating design. I can't find any designs that people have done though, so perhaps i'm in a minority.

I'd like to see Hunters deflect Rockets and Grenades more often though. That's something that'd make me crap myself.

Also, while I was looking for those pictures, uh, lets just say that Jackals have been Rule 34'd. Now, i'm off to get some eyebleach.
I think the grunts look fine the way they are and that jackal pic looks awesome thats how they should look.

Eat raw meat.
Punch a bear in the face.


If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

I think that Hunters need to go bonkers when you kill one of them. If you fight a single Hunter, then no problem, if you kill one of a pair, then the other will go bonkers trying to kill you. That'd scare me a bit.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

Haha, I now have a new name for the Hunters. Thank you, good sir.

I have seen some awesome suggestions. I think Bungie should take a gander in this thread (hell, the entire Reach forum).

Nolan is Nolan.

I was a bit fearful in halo CE in the parts i didnt have anything to completely mirk them with (pitol rocket or low ammo on AR)

as for the other redesigns. I like the designs for the jackal and the last arbiter picture on that link is quite amazing. But the grunts arent meant to be intimidating and should be nothing more than little covenant meat shields to be thrown at the UNSC. I feel like jackals should have random scars, and maybe missing an eye and various hair things

Someone who has never played Halo will get killed by Hunters once and then realize how simple they are. Sure, we all get killed by them on occasion but not near as much as we should.

Hunters need to be scarier than they look they look almost unstoppable but when you face one they dont do much. They need better AI and better melee attacks, like when you dodge the melee attack and start shooting at the hunters back his bond brother should come out of know where and smack the crap out of you. And if a bond brother dies then the hunter should go beserk

they should give them back the fuel rod cannon, the new beam weapon is so weak and easy to dodge, the Honor Guard Hunters from ODST were good. they should make them faster than your character, that way it is harder to run away from their lunges

My friend and I were discussing the possibility of Honor Guard Hunters in Reach. Gold Hunters are not Honor Guards. Honor Guard Hunters are HUUUUUUGE.

Like, if you were to see one in-game you would be like:

"Das a HUGE -blam!-!"

Wait are you joking or what??


No, I remember reading about them in one of the books. I believe Contact Harvest. Not certain.

Something they should be able to do is ,when you charging them with a mongoose ,hog or similar vehicle ,they should stab their shield into the front of your vehicle ,or stab it into the ground ,making them un squish able.

It's not that they are too low. Their position is more of a mutual agreement between the Prophets and the Lekgolo.

You do not really want to mess with the Hunters, they are left alone pretty much.

yes true i they should get some type of aoe weapon
when you get to close to the them they fire an emp brust to drain shields and disable your weapons (if there covie weapon or any advance weapon or viceals (dont know how to spell it))

but like there assualt beam should have like extra attach ment like a flame thrower , emp shot , and a grenade luancher

Wheres Meh Sniper?

hunters are fun to kill, if you get the right timing you can spin around them under their arm when they swing at you and punch them in the back, and if you keep the timing good you can kill it really fast

Hunters should be able to dodge rockets and grenades and side step when they shoot there assault beam instead of just sitting there.

This is where the lower difficulty settings come in to play.

Say, on Legendary, a Hunter should deflect Rockets more often, but on Easy, they should deflect rockets only on rare occasions.
