Discuss.
I would have to say mine are The skirmishers, especially the murmillo class, way better than their jackal cousins.

Drones.

Also, I hate skirmishers for the very same reason you like them.
They took the speed and intelligence from past jackals in previous Halo's and put it into skirmishers.

Now the only the only thing they do is walk forwards and dodge needles.

Jackal FTW, i like them because they have shields and can deflect stuff. they may not be very smart but they are badass

  • 01.17.2012 12:05 PM PDT

Grunts.

They're just so funny to listen to in the other Halos.

  • 01.17.2012 12:05 PM PDT

Boltshot = mini shotgun

Elites for their awesomeness.
Grunts for the hilarity.

Unfortunately there is nothing amusing or witty here.

Hunters because they're always fun

Halo 2 > Halo 3 > Halo 3 ODST > Halo Reach > Halo CE

Based on campaigns.

Brutes. In Halo Reach they have super strength and in Halo 3 they look awesome, combine the two together you get a super strong awesome looking brute who invented some of the coolest weapons in Halo, Spiker, Mauler, Brute Shot and Hammer,

Id rather be a brute than a spartan or elite. I could destroy those guys.

Hunters are just awesome. Probably the most creative alien species ever created. I mean...they're WORMS....wrapped together and armored.....with Samus arm guns and sparta shields!

Skirmishers look way more badass though, and I don't think they stole the jackal's intelligence either, I'd never seen a jackal in any other game do some of the things skirmishers did in reach.

It's probably the same for me, but by intelligence I mean, well, everything. Jackals used to flank, they almost always had their shields up when you where nearby, they dodged in close quarters, they tried to dodge grenades, they actually moved, as in ran, they dodged vehicles like douchbags too.

In Reach, they do NONE of that. They only seem capable of two things, walking in a straight line right past me or towards me, and occasionally hitting the floor when a single needle is seen. And now skirmishers took all that and sped it up a little. Honestly, I never really saw the point in skirmishers, just speedy palate swaps intended to replace drones.

But hey, it's not a hate thread on palate swaps, so here's a free bump.

Engineers. They don't shoot back, and all they do is float and make disgusting noises.
