A Gold Elite with a Plasma Sword and OverShield is the best!

That's why I like to play as them with my modded xbox!

A gold Elite would deflect the grenade with its sword right back at the black elite!

Now why don't they use that nifty trick against MC? Silly elites.

That would be funny if they installed that in Halo 2. The first time you throw a grenade at a gold elite with a energy sword, it knocks it right back at you. I think I would be to stunned to do anything about it.

I think that the black is hader because on Heroic on Keyes I could barely get passed the part first try to get Banshee.

Black Elites are the most feared of all Elites but they dont rank higher than a Gold, and they still haved to take orders from them! ( although even a mighty gold Elite can fear them, Not i - Anbr Albodee a Huge Gold Elite....that doesnt fear a thing...not even this Cyborg Soldier! )

  • 08.06.2004 11:46 AM PDT

Gold elite, because the black ones are way too easy even on legendary. The stupid black ones don't even know how to dodge a grenade.

First off, PSYCHO.....the other "N" word is really not cool.

About the elites...it makes no diffrence. I will still kill it wether or not its gold or black. Or for PSYCHO...the more friendly version: The African American Elite

dude, are u kidding?i only kill gold elites with grenades!u have to use strateegy or more than one grenade on the black elites but when theidiot gold elites stand there and howl, you have time to either get a grenade on them or use the elite killing combo(plasma pistol fully charged, followed by rifle/pistol).

Well, if they did that what about the whole halo 2 demo, when cortana asks mc if he thinks he can stick the sword elite. It won't matter cause he's gonna deflect it and mc = dead

Both are easy but black is better. Gold elites r so easy to tag especially when they jump towards you with the plasma sword. Black r pretty acurate with grenades.
