Least used isn't really opinion.

Most underused would have to be hologram, I suppose.

Take it as a compliment, your topic inspired me. I suppose I should have asked you if I could, but I wanted to see the other end of the spectrum. So thank you.

Halo died with Bungie
Bungie died with Halo

Armour Lock

... lol jk.

I think hologram as no one really uses it.
Dropshield is used a bit in Invasion and everything else is used in, well... everything else.

I personally believe Evade is the most abused armor ability.

Jetpacker = Easy target
Camo = Throw a grenade in the middle of the red dots.
Armor Lock= Just stay back and be patient.
Hologram = Don't waste a rocket on somebody running straight.
Sprint = Let them go.
D Shield = Really isn't annoying.

Evade seems like it is primarily used to run away, or just be a gigantic puss.

Evade has a lame draw, if you're close enough to a sword, you can't evade without dying.
You may be on the other side of the room, but if you're not 100% done with the animation, you still get killed by the sword.
Same goes for any 1 shot kill weapon, flag, oddball, bomb, etc.

edit:
As for least abused, Hologram for sure, hardly anyone even uses it.

Hologram by far. In fact, people barley even use it as it is?

  • 11.24.2011 8:11 AM PDT

The only time I ever see a hologram is because whoever used it wanted the GL. At least in invasion anyway.

Then again I find its only real use is for comic effect when someone falls for it hook, line, sinker, rod and copy of angling times.

Name's John. I'm a 21-year-old firefighter/EMT from lolhio who doubles as a die-hard Halo fan. I've been enjoying the franchise since 2001. My favorite iteration of Halo would have to be Halo 2 simply because I never got to experience the joy of a full-on Halo: CE LAN.


If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Oh yeah, and boot Zome.

I remember when holograms were announced people thought they were going to be running rampant in every game and just turning it into an un-enjoyable cluster-blam!-. lol

The 343 forums suck. They're full of retarded kids and mods who got butthurt in the B.net forums for being told that they're bad.

Armor Lock, of course. Nobody uses it.
