Ithink the Arbiter shouln not even be in H3. THe story should focus only on Master Cheif...

Considering the Arbiter's role in H2, I doubt there's any reason to not include him now. He was alot more fun to play as, because it's more useful to run by the hordes of Flood invisibly than trying to fight them off, because half of the time they come out of your -blam!- regions. Aside from that, the Arbiter is an extremely dynamic character compared to the MC, who never says anything, and is always getting himself in trouble or making funny sounds when he falls to his death. Playing as the Arbiter is necessary in H3, and to get back on topic, he should be featured in the next trailer.

Hmm...since the Arbiter armor is a symbol of the Covanant...doesnt that mean he should ditch it and get back his armor he had in The Heretic intro level. But then he would have permanant camo. However, they could counter this by making it so you had to kill ALL enemies before progressing...it is an objective. So people wouldnt just run thru the whole level like COWARDLY FOOLS. The Path of Shame is for wussies. Use it and your a noob. And since the Preeminent (elite+grunt+hunter) is working with the humans vs the Covanant (brute+jackal+drone+prophet) we can expect humans to have MUCH better weapons. The more advanaced alien tech in human BR's and stuff, thats an upgrade for you :)
But to answer the question...I would have to say we should get to see him soon. Maybe we will see him throw the armor he has off a cliff and put on the new armor he gets, hopefully white armor, as that is the most powerful and high ranking elite armor.

Should they show a clip of maybe what Arbiter's been doing with his life?


its so obvious what hes been doing, lounging around at his beach house with his hoes, drinking vodka, having sexy parties and getting drunk.

HAHAHA...yeah true. Arbiter or no Arbiter...I'll still play H3. I just hope the Assault Rifle is in it. It looks that way in the trailer, does it not?

Yes it does. And the Arbiter/Elites will have to be able to use them ;)
Arbiter cannot be erased now. Nor can the fact that enemies will now be brutes,jackals,drones,prophets, and flood. Actully if you think about it...a campaign as a Flood elite combat form (with shields!! some of them have shields) would add a 3rd twist to the story, you could maybe get a better background on the Flood and see what its like from their point of view. Also can we have some HUD changes plz? A diff one for arbiter/flood form(if added). The Flood one would be quite "interesting" i would imagine. Hell, if they balance the MP version of the Flood Elite form, it could be a THIRD playable MP character. And in MP it could have Human, Covanant, and Flood teams. Spartans/Elites killing their own kind is odd to me but...well thats just me lol. Human being Red Team, Covie being Purple Team, and Flood being Green Team. Before Halo 2 game out I hoped their was a White or Black team. I want black armor! Steel does not cut it for me.

(Purple is covie main colors, teh fruity bastages, lol. Flood goes well with green. Other than red for human, not much else would work.)

I just miss the health meter from the first Halo. In H2, when your sheilds are down...your dead, that simple. But in H!, you had sheilds, AND health...like a human. --- Yeah....a flood campain....hum....

No, you have plenty of health still plus the health "recharges". In Halo 1 often you would run out of med packs, and sometimes when you ran out you would have to restart the level.

Plus the Arbiter is indeed more dynamic than the chief, Arbiter changes a lot druing the story.

And instead of crying and screaming when you get to Arbiter levels(probably just because he isn't chief you instantly hate him), give it a chance. the first Arbiter level was not boring, the Banshee fights was one of the best parts of the game.

shows how much you know. read the books and understand the storyline.

also, at the end of first strike, what does tartarus tell the prophet of truth about the one in charge of ascendant justice? something like "and what of the one who lost ascendant justice?" truth "bring him before the council, and let him face the magnitude of his failure."

why do you think they are punishing the arbiter at the begining, genius? did you consider that question for one moment?

  • 05.19.2006 8:23 PM PDT

plus, little genius, when the arbiter is headed for the library on a phantom tartarus tells him about the demon, then asks him "why? LOOKING FOR A LITTLE PAYBACK?"

So..let's see...a Spec Ops Elite is in charge of the ship? Shut the -blam!- up kid.

And I believe he said bring me the Elite in charge of the Fleet, cause the Ascendant justice got there AFTER Halo blew up, and the Arbiter had to deal with the Flood + Chief.

No Flood in First Strike, so you have to know that that Elite that got shot like the Sargeant Johnson of the Covenant..

For destroying the Ring, a Prophet, and his Fleet in Halo CE, little idiot.

Why you guys hate Arbiter? This high ranked Elite could be more powerful than Master Chief.


its a rank and besides Master Chief is a RANK so MC is about equal to the Arbiter in rank

how about you learn about the game before making stupid posts. who the hell do you think is "the guardian of the luminous key" and what do you think the luminous key is, idiot?

the arbiter couldnt care less for the prophet and his fleet jackass. he was in charge of safeguarding halo, he failed, he gets disgraced, and he gets pissed at the mc.

All Elites are about as strong as a SPARTAN II, but the SPARTANS usually have better teamwork and thinking abilities so they always come out on top even though they're outnumbered.

The rank has NOTHING to do with power, do you think Admiral Whitcomb could take out a Jackal? Nope.


The Arbiter and the Chief are about the same in everything, though there is only One Arbiter and there are many Master Chiefs. This has nothing to do with anything though.

You just proved that the Spec Ops Elite is NOT the Arbiter. Why do you have beef with me kiddie?

The Arbiter would be pissed since MC destroyed his ship, the Ring, and his whole Fleet under his command, and a Prophet.
--Prophet = Military and Religious leader who they all believe in and who promoted the Arbiter. Would you be pissed at someone who killed the Pope (if you're Catholic)


Guardian of the Luminous key is not the Arbiter, it's most likely either the Flood, Sentinals, or a Monitor. Luminous key = index.


You're a -blam!- up kid man...seriously.

Umm actually, yes. You definately proved yourself wrong, so why don't you just quit at life?

I proved you wrong as well, many times. I also gave proof to back it up - and my proof is also correct (unlike yours)


Why do you talk -blam!- to people for thinking up a theory? We like the story and actually understand it (unlike you) and decide to put think then thoughts into words (You don't think before you type..or it certainly doesn't seem like it)

This topic is not about if the Arbiter should be in the next game -he will be in it and you Arby-haters all know it- it's about if he should be in the next trailer. I say yes, the Arbiter's armor has more detail in it then the Mjolnir so I think it would be cool beyond our imagenation.
