I mean, at the time of Reach falling, sheilds wouldn't be that strong would they? It took enough to power a Spartan, how would it power a Sabre sheild?
I haven't read all the books, so I'm probobaly wrong.
I'm not sure what you are talking about with power... But sabers were most likely the next step, applying energy shields to fightercraft. It's one up from powered armor.
By power I mean how strong the shields are and so on.
UNSC energy shields (The one reverse engineered from Covenant Jackal Shield tech) have always been described to be more efficient than the Covenants own shield tech.
wtf i'm sure it's the other way round...
No, he's got it right. The covenant mimicked Forerunner technology without expanding upon it, and hardly came close to the Forerunners' capabilities. They were not innovative, and never sought to improve their technology beyond simple imitations. The humans conducted extensive research into the covenant tech, and managed to discover a more efficient system that the Covenant were neglecting to take advantage of.
