Subject: What armor do you wear and why?

I like teh vidya gamzz

I wear very simple armor because I am trying to look like I am wearing SPI armor.
But if I wasn't it would be

Helmet: Pilot ( I love piloting )
Right shoulder: sniper ( gotta love extra ammo )
Left shoulder : Sniper (^)
Chest: Parafoil ( For fitting in vehicles :D
Knee's: Fj/para
Utility: Hard Case ( Holds my ammo )

for SPI

Helmet: Pilot ( Looks like SPI )
Left and right shoulders: default
Chest: Default or scout
Knee's : Default
Wrist: Default or the one jorge wears ( forgot it's name )

Your world ends with 57

EVA with the Silver Visor. It either blinds my opponents or draws fire away from my teammates.

They see me rollin', they hatin'.

I use the CQB helmet because nobody else seems to use it, therefore making it special.

I like people like you. Actually having a CLASS and wearing armor that suits their skills. Not like BKs who wear the sniper shoulders even though they suck at sniping.


For me, it's a little different.

Helmet: Gold EVA because I'm bold. I'm always getting the enemies attention and then leading them into a grenade trap.

Left shoulder: Grenadier (I'm good at avoiding grenades)
Right shoulder: Operator (There's that symbol that looks like 4 arrows pointing to a head) I'm good with precision weapons and the laser.

Chest: Commando (I always seek out for extra ammo)

Wrist: UGPS (I always look at my radar)

Utility: Softcase (I always seek out for extra ammo)

Prefered AA: Sprint and Camo

Best weapons: DMR, Shotgun, GL


Me/
U r so complicated ... juz wear wat u like. wat bad at sniping that all blah blah blah..

Do it....for the Chief

09/09/09 was my Birthday.

I feel this is very personal... Here ya go! XP

HEAD: fully upgraded pilot helmet because I dream of SPI, sometimes CQB because its close to my heart after the halo legends episode wit red CQB girl... She as much as Johnson and the chief should be remembered.
Chest: commando because I beta tested in this chest and I miss the beta.
Left shoulder: grenadier I think the big one Jorge has in same spot, partially because jorge is my favorite next to the chief.
Right: commando because the combination with grenadier is really cool.
Knee: i forgot what it's called I'll probably never change it but Carter wears them.
Armor effect: flaming helm never change it. "flames burn on helms of the loyal"
Utility: that awesome fully upgraded thing the pack on your leg, I love wearing cargo anything and it reminds me of my favorit corgo shorts.

I guess I'm best with splattering with ghost, other than that I'm a Spartan trained in the use of all arms. I'm A good pilot.

Preferred ability EVADE, and I guess it's counterpart sprint. I like being true blue to combat no flying, cloaking, or armor lock bs will ever corrupt me.

  • 05.12.2011 9:19 PM PDT

Primary Armor Color: Rust
Secondary Armor Color: Rust

Connor Morris

I like to look large and intimmidating. You'd think I would be more of a heavy weapons guy but I'm more of a marksman. I can never get the sniper because low life scum always betray me for it.

  • 05.12.2011 9:23 PM PDT

Helmet- CQB
Chest- Collar Grenadier [UA]
Shoulders- CQC
Wrist- Assault Bracer
Utility- Tactical Hard Case
Knee- Grenadier

I am unfortunately an armor locker, but that doesn't mean I'm all about getting up in your face, I save it for when my opponent get's too close for comfort. I know when to blast at my enemy with grenades and when to cover my own ass until backup arrives. I am a defender when it comes to CTF, but in a game of stockpile you will often see me rolling across the map.

I may wear extra shotgun shells on my wrist, but I rarely use it, I've collected them from my opponents unfortunate enough to stand on one of my grenades.

  • 05.12.2011 9:29 PM PDT

The concept is all that really matters.

Interesting...

Helmet: Base Operator with blue visor; that's all I really remember by heart. It just fits me, expressionless and a little intimidating at first glance, when actually I'm not at all that once you get used to me.
Shoulders: [right] ODST, [left] whatever as long as it's asymmetrical and smaller than ODST, like Recon/Hazop; I guess it represents that my right side is dominant to my left, as in hand and brain hemisphere.
Chestpiece: HP/something-or-other; It's not really flashy and noticable, which is how I like to be in real life, usually. Though, I think I'll be dressing as a bartender consistently throughout sophomore year of high school, so maybe I'll change the chestpiece once that happens. :P The Kat arm would be nice for that, though overused....
Bracer: I forget the name, but it's crescent-shaped. I just don't really like any of the other bracers available.
Utility: Again, the crescent shaped one that I can't remember the name of. I think it's Composite something-or-other.
Kneepiece: I think it's Grenadier. Mostly because nearly everyone uses Fudge/Para.

My armor

Colors: They are stealthy without being outright HERP DERP I HAVE BLACK ARMOR

Armor itself: The mixes of all my armor is because they are light and do not stick out.

  • 05.12.2011 9:51 PM PDT

Shoryuken!

Mythic Mode Progress on Reach:
Winter Contingency, perfection.
Other levels in progress.

I usually wear this.

Why? Because only I could pull this off. :)

  • 05.12.2011 9:52 PM PDT

I wear pilot helmet because i am always trying to get airborne and i always try to be the driver. other than that, i just pick what looks good.

  • 05.12.2011 9:56 PM PDT

Bungie is 10 seconds too quick to close a thread,
but 10 years too late to answer our questions;

Let's keep the awesome posts coming.

Spartan Model.

I like the look of sleek, sharp edges, and my favorite colour combination is orange & black. I stick with the default visor colour because it seems to fit it best (black doesn't look good on the Mk V).

I'm not really sure what 'role' my spartan would fit into.

  • 05.12.2011 11:37 PM PDT

Check Out My Spartan

ODST is the best. idk why i have that chest piece though. it looks like crap

  • 05.12.2011 11:45 PM PDT

i use the blue grenades

HEAD: Recon w/ attachments
VISOR: Black (Doesn't reflect light, making it seem to be a less targetable area)
CHEST: Tatical/Patrol
SHOULDERS: Sniper
WRIST: UGPS
KNEES: FJ/PARA
THIGH: NxRA
ARMOR EFFECT: Heart Attack (its kinda funny and doesn't make noise)

Basically chose stuff that looked good to me and wasn't bulky.

  • 05.12.2011 11:51 PM PDT

A good Spartan is felt, not heard.

Well I don't know the names of all of it but I can hand down a description (BTW this is before I was ranked down when attempting online)

Helmet: Emile's Eva with a black visor
Left Shoulder: Sniper
Right Shoulder: " "
Chest:Tactical/Patrol or Collar/Breacher R
Knees: FJ/PARA
Wrist:Tactical/Tacpad w/ UA Bracer
Utility:UA / NXRA
Colors: Vary from game to game. Right now it's cyan/silver

I loved this combination because as a person, it would describe my personality. From the skull plate (For Danger) down to the Colors (Icy Cold).

Alright, I'll bite.

Armor

Best Weapon: DMR
Preferred Ability: Sprint / Evade

My play style is quick and precise. I like to engage as fast and shoot as accurately as I can. Therefore, I choose the female model with the robo arm to make myself generally smaller.

However, I do engage in a lot of precision weapon duels so I added the high left shoulder piece to somewhat prevent headshots and decrease my head's profile(even though I know it doesn't actually make a difference).

The leg pack and armor color are becasue I envision my spartan as part of a very small, very fast infiltration unit.

Cool thread, thanks.

Exitus Acta Probat

i wear all odst with silver visor, assault/breacher wrist, and medkit utility, because it suits me. ima CQC specialist but when its needed i wont mind being a medic. even though im good at sniping i would never wear the sniper shoulders with the shotgun wrist because that sends the message that im a camper who waits with those weapons and i am definitely not

  • 05.13.2011 1:21 AM PDT

Remember Elk

Here it is
Colors because they look good and armour for trying to look small.

And gurl because I want to mess with the heads of everyone I play with on my friendslist who keep telling me to change everything around as if I was a doll.

i have my armour cus its bad ass.. easy;)

  • 05.13.2011 1:25 AM PDT

I wear the Mk V (first variation) simply because I like the way it looks. Same with the black visor and the Tacpad. I use the Tactical/Recon chest (I think that's what it's called) because that's my playstyle - at the start of a match, I always take the longest, least used route to the enemy players in order to get behind them and take them by surprise. I stuck the CQC shoulder on because it's basically a shield and since the rest of my armour is quite light, my Spartan needs some protection. Having a large shoulderpad like that enables the Spartan to cover his body when taking fire, achieving makimum protection with minumum armour. Hence the Recon shoulderpad on the other shoulder - I like the idea of having one huge shoulderpad and one tiny one. And I chose the kneepads (Gungnir, I think?) because they go well with the rest of the suit.

Oh, and I've got the Tactical Hardcase on because I bought it to see what it unlocked, and forgot to remove it. But it looks alright anyways.

Vanity.

EDIT: Wow. I got almost every single name wrong.
