"I can accept failure, everyone fails at something, but I can't accept not trying." - M. Jordan

IS the thing the MC took offf the first elite he killed (armguard object) the technology that Dr. Halsey needed to make a shield over the Spartan armor.

The armguard was from a jackal, and that's what dr Halsey used.

The Jackal was the first thing he killed. The elite was the thing he got it off. Rememer, jackals don't have body shields.

They hadn't even seen an elite before the battle for Reach. John saw an elite for the first time EVA on the Gamma station. And dr. Halsey did say "We have used, an if I might add, improved upon the energy sheilds the covenant jackals have been using against us to great effect."

Oh, I have't read that far ahead in fall of reach. I am only page 155, starting chapter 18. The part where Captain keyes just got done fighting 4 covanant ships.

Sorry. I assumed you'd read it all. I hope I didn't spoil it too badly. Sorry...

Nope, I'm actually glad. It makes sence since Dr. Halsey says it was from a jackle.
