Subject: why spartains

when I play odst on legendary I found out that ODSTs have more health than spartains on reach, really? why didn't the unsc just make an army of odst instead of spatains.

Because Mark 5 Spartans and Mark 6 spartans (Halo 1 Mark 5, Halo 2,3 Mark 6) Are stronger then both?

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Mark V and Mark VI aren't types of Spartans. They're types of armor Spartans wear. But, yes, Spartan-II's are better then any ODST. That being said, ODST's are still great soldiers. Just not augmented and don't have the best equipment.

Noble Actual

The spartans in Reach are Spartan III's which are pretty much ODST's in heavier armour and use injections to improve their physical peak. They were cheap replacements for II's but were weaker in every way.

Half of the time I'm dead serious.
The other half not so much.

Because Spartans have regenerating shields while ODSTs don't.

Same question as why not send in 20 warthogs instead of 3 Scorpions. The warthogs can take out more targets at once but the scorpions can last alot longer. I dont think Jorge wouldve thrown an ODST out of the cruiser and still expected him to survive the fall.

"Sir, we lost contact with ODST #14692, 2358, and 12003."
"Which squad?"
"#1348"
"Damn.. What were their names?"
"Lady Gaga, Jusin Beiber, and a Mr. M. Night Shyamalan."

Spartan III's deserve much more credit than you're giving them.
