Contrary to belief, Grunts are actually fairly strong, able to:
- Carry and wield a Fuel Rod Gun
- Carry and Wield a Brute Spiker or Plasma Rifle
- Carry, mount and deploy a Plasma Turret
- Ripped apart a human Private Osmo limb from limb in Halo: Contact Harvest
Jackals and by definition also Skirmishers can carry and wield some of the potentially heavier weapons, such as the Carbine, Needle Rifle, Beam Rifle and Plasma Rifle. I'd imagine they'd be about the equal of a Human in combat, possibly stronger, as they do prey upon lesser species such as Humans and Grunts. Skirmishers are probably also pretty strong.
Drones can claw a human to death, or even bodily lift an armored Marine into the air, although this may be with the aid of their antigravity propulsion aided flight.
Elites and Brutes carry some of the Covenant's heaviest weaponry, and can both equal or even best a Spartan in hand-to-hand combat. Undoubtedly the strongest Covanent races, barring a Mgalekgolo/Hunter.
The grunt that killed the overweight unit did not "rip" his body apart he clawed his stomach to death
fuel rods and rockets are about 50lbs and if you cant pick that up u are extremely weak
jackals are not near stronger than humans, skirmishers are near if not as strong
jackals arent just capable of consuming a human or grunt but an elite or a brute
Drones can only claw a human if it is already dead, if the human is not dead then he will try to rip its head off, remember drones are easy to dismember just like insects on earth, thats why they're quick and can fly. Drones only pick up humans by their muscle in their wings not much by their arms
spartan II's can best a every elite up to general or zealots but thats an average spartan II if it were someone like jorge or sam they could best a chieftan and take on a hunter(but probably lose)
elites dont use what brutes use, elites have exoskeleton just like spartans brutes are just naturally powerful. if u look at a dead elites wrist and look up its arm on halo reach u can see 3 skins
---1st Skin
thats the skin thats on the top and it holds thye armor to the 2nd skin
---2nd Skin
thats the skin that blocks projectiles and charges shields its similar to the 1st skin
---3rd Skin
this skin is under all the others and is over the real skin, this skin covers most of the body(do u really think elites run around in combat half naked) it is the reason elites run fast, lift heavy objects, and can rival a spartan.
but dont get me wrong elites are still stronger than humans but not as we thought before they are actually 1.3 times stronger than us, thats like a football lineman to an average human
