Subject: What do you think the rook specializes in?

Peyton Lorts

Dutch is heavy weapons, Mickey is explosives, Romeo is sniping, Dare is fighting with a pistol, and Buck is leading. So what does rook specialize in?

Can you believe it?

I don't think he specialises in anything. If he did, it would probably be the SMG.

dares the leader buck just gets messy

I'm stubborn as long as I'm not wrong. Prove me wrong and you'll get an apology.

I believe he's just a jack of all trades.

What a hipster.

I believe he could specialize in battle strategy.

  • 03.28.2010 12:31 PM PDT

I'd say he's good at everything,but specalises in stealth,I mean,look at how he survived in New Mombosa.

The Rookie specializes in Badassness all year round.

If I'm right I read somewhere that he's the Medic because he has the biggest backpack.

He specializes in killing I can tell you that but if I tell you more Im going to have to kill you xD jk

I think its stealth as well. Also he does have a scilenced smg?

Step 7 is on it's way. Prepare the sling-shot.

All hail for the seventh number.

His specialty is in backtracking.

i think medic because in the final cutscene not the epilouge he has the hypothermic needle.

Video games are my favourite video games.

Sign language. That poor bastard had best have some experience in space sign language, or he's screwed.

Napping.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

Well English isn't his strength, or any other spoken language for that matter......

He's new so I guess they haven't signed him to anything yet...

Moving only vertically and horizontally.

On Topic: Probably stealth.

  • 03.28.2010 6:30 PM PDT

Yes you can haz recon.

But not from me.

Go away.

Stealth. I mean he's quite at least.

He talks about as much as Lucy.

PS: Lucy being the mute Spartan III from Ghosts of Onyx. Beta Company I believe... :D

gotta go fast

I guess its stealth, he might be a medic tough.

Just a speculation.

  • 03.29.2010 2:52 AM PDT

Does anyone even read these?

Carrying... backpacks...

Philosophy and philology is my game.

Dutch is heavy weapons, Mickey is explosives, Romeo is sniping, Dare is fighting with a pistol, and Buck is leading. So what does rook specialize in?

Firstly, I really don't think that Dare can specialise in just sidearms, as her superiors would laugh at her and not take her seriously as a soldier or agent; not to mention how she would have learnt to handle all standard human infantry equipment by default upon completion of military training, as well as need-to-know experience with the Covenant's arsenal and salvaged technology.
If anything, the lady would be a specialist agent, so therefore the likes of espionage, C.Q.C, Interrogation and computer infiltration.

That little rant aside, I think that given his mis-leading codename (if you've watched the trailer for ODST where Buck was giving a monologue on his team, he makes it clear that Rookie is in fact an experienced commando who has fought the Covenant and lived to tell the tale. His muted personality was explained by his trauma ( which really just made for excellent and streamlined gameplay on the firefight modes without the really bad personalities of the unlockable team shouting "Hell yeah!" and "Gave you an extra nose hole!" every three seconds).

Still, I reckon hes a jack-of-all-traded, master-of-none kind of character; much like the Chief in that respect.
