Elites can jump higher and it takes more shots to kill them, if they were in normal gametypes every one would be them just to be stronger than a spartan.

Immortality: A toy which people cry for, And on their knees apply for, Dispute, contend and lie for, And if allowed Would be right proud Eternally to die for.

Their health regenerates automatically as-well.

Because Elites don't have the same traits as Spartans.

I would take faster charging shields, regen health and faster/higher speed and jump with the con of larger body any day..

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.

I like to play Reach for fun. I hate MLG, campers, armor lock, and team killers because they ruin that fun. Deal with it.

Unfair advantage to the spartans, but I'd still like the opportunity to be a dino outside of Elite Slayer and Invasion.

Welcome to the internet. Joy dies here.

thats the one thing that stands out to me. Halo 2/3 you could be an Elite and play along side Spartans in any gamemode in MM. now... its just slow spartans in every gametype.

I barely see Elite Slayer anymore. and if it comes up, people need to seriously pick it... cuz its actually "fun" and a whole lot of crazy action.

Invasion. Feel it. Believe it. Be it.

there you go. bigger hitbox. I guess thats the one downfall if you would choose an elite. easier to get shots on an elite due to big body.


Choose ranger or default.

Does flaming people on forums count as an esport?

It's not an issue of elites themselves. It's the weapons. In Halo 2, the PR=SMG and Carbine=BR more or less. Same in H3.

In Reach the Needler Rifle does such -blam!- damage that it makes killtimes ridiculously long. I wouldn't mind Elite Slayer if it used everything spartan except the character models themselves.

Then why are there no Elite hoards in customs? Customs are my life-blood, and, without a doubt, I can say, 98% of the time in customs, I am the only Elite player there.

Of course, now that all the recent updates that came out for customs have for the most part removed all Elite gameplay, it doesn't matter.

It still irks me big time though. Sure, the Halo fans got a big ol dick slap with Reach, but the Elite fans got hit the hardest.


Although it shouldn't be a main concern, I really hope that whatever Elite loving people that are left for Halo 4 and beyond don't get dick slapped around.

Have you ever tried that? It's not as fun as you think. Elites with human weaponry are OP to the max. Now, if it's all just Elites, sure, go ahead, but you lose another thing as well, weapon variety.

Games using only Elites and their weaponry, tend to be quite varied in terms of weapon usage, ironically because all the weapons have an equal garbage level and aren't facing UNSC stuff.

It's ironic really when you think about it, Elite weapons tend to tear apart Elites better than spartans, and Spartan weaponry tears Spartans apart far more than the Elite stuff ever could.

For people that tried to friend me: My setting won't allow me to accept requests, but I made another account, and as soon as I get it connected to XBOX Live, I might be able to friend you. However, this account I made will only be used for comedy like Machinima if any of you have Machinima. Have a good day. :)

I'll only be an Elite if they let you customize their armor like you do with the Spartans in the Armory. And that's that.

Why couldn't 343 just edit the elites traits to be the same as spartans?
