1. Identify the most flawed Promethean.

Which is the Watcher. I mean really, the hardlight shield and grenade catching practically complement each other. After that, all they do is bring back the dead. They're boring!

2. Create a Promethean to reinforce the Watcher's annoying presence.

Scenario: player targets Watcher. Watcher flees helplessly while other Prometheans merely provide distraction, often unintentionally

Solution: holograms, multiple copies of the Watcher

3. Finalize it.

Promethean Halberd, I choose you! This enemy would project a copy of Watchers and would be proficient in ranged cqc.

There should have been another Watcher class, that would be superior to the normal one. The superior Watcher class would do the resurrecting and the hard light shields but it wouldn't have a boltshot to retaliate with, and made the "normal" Watcher more aggressive.

I don't know, just seems to make more sense than have one all around super support class.


Oh god please no. More aggressive watchers? UUUUHHHHH KILL ME. I was harvesting knights a while back and letting watchers revive them for harvesting purposes. Played on easy to speed things up. As soon as 3+ watchers were involved, I just melted in seconds. They literally did more damage than the knights and as soon as my shields were gone I was dead from a headshot.

Than make the amount of Watchers more uncommon, instead of ending up with Drones 2.0

Ignore my gamertag. It's actually Dragonzzilla.

If Crawlers had more of a pack-like caste, what would each of these Crawlers do?

Crawler Alpha
Crawler Beta
Crawler Gamma
Crawler Delta
Crawler Epsilon
Crawler Omega

What? People read these?

I don't know about the others, but once the Alpha was killed, maybe rest would scatter, or if a low-level crawler was killed, its comrades scavenge its parts.

This world wants to drag you down... And the weight, that guilt they want to hang around your neck, you don’t have to carry it one more step. You think they won’t let you rest, but it’s not up to them. It never was.

I like this idea; a Support Watcher and an Attack Watcher. It would make them less annoying to fight.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

The Forerunners were said to be extinct.


"Were said," being key. We've known since Halo 3 that that's not true, the Bornstellar-Didact led the survivors on the Great Journey to find the Precursors.

Crawler Alpha
Crawler Beta
Crawler Gamma
Crawler Delta
Crawler Epsilon
Crawler Omega

Alpha: Leads groups, uses suppressor or Binary, gold tint to signify their rank, shields
Beta: Much like the Alpha Crawlers, except they'd have much weaker shields, and a dark red/crimson tint
Gamma: Sniper class of Crawlers, uses Binary OR boltshot for close range
Delta: Leads lower ranked crawlers, more accurate and aggressive, uses a suppressor, bluish tint
Epsilon: Leads only Omega's, uses just a boltshot, flees when higher ranking crawlers are killed, much like Grunts but a little more determined, has an orange tint
Omega: Normal watcher, uses just a boltshot, flees when higher ranking crawlers are killed, much like Grunts

My DeviantArt Gallery - For my Photoshop stuff, go have a look!

I did a thing on Promethean/Forerunner Guardians.

Intended to be large humanoids, weaker than Knights with their own subclasses. (Of course, in my ideas The Binary Rifle was a 2-shot and Incineration Cannons were slow-charging rocket launchers)

Knights are large, independent-looking creatures who have a commanding presence. Fusing several Knights just seems... I don't know, weird. And their shape doesn't exactly allow for a logical fusion shape.


Perfectly capable when all that binds them s hardlight joints, just as the other guy said. They can disassemble, then reassemble into a more imposing foe, piece by piece.

Not to mention watchers can already reanimate knights that have obliterated themselves into nothing more than ash-piles and data streams.

These ones can work as shock troopers. The Promethean versions of hunters.

I actually like that. What color would the Gamma be?

Also, would the higher-ranking Crawlers have those decorative holograms around them, like the Suppressor Crawlers from Halo 4?

13.72 billion years in the making.

On December 1st, 2012, I met Neil deGrasse Tyson. I shook the man's hand, and even made him laugh. Not much else to do with my life now.

Okay, so hear me out. It's a Promethean Knight, but instead of using guns and blades, it uses seduction techniques. You can't make direct eye contact with the Knight, otherwise you'll slowly be pulled in by his sexiness. You need to constantly mash the melee button to break free.

  • 01.05.2013 10:45 AM PDT

Currently studying Computer Science & Software engineering. Hope to work on mobile devices of the future! When a certain game's credits roll, look out for my name! ;)

You will -blam!- bricks when you see what game it is! =)

Looks like Vladimir Putin, acts like an angry drunk Russian, goes by the name Nicolai.

(legit Halo 5 prometheans BTW; im srs)

No, we make a new class called the "Seducer". It has the same sexy base model and curvature as the Flame Atronachs, minus the flames.

"So- So this means Im just going to be miserable for the rest of time?!"

"No. This means that you have to live life to the fullest. You have one life, live it well. Make sure you die without regrets. Get a new life, new mate, new family. You, out of all people, don't deserve a terrible fate of misery like that. Having nothing to look forward to is good. It makes sure you want to keep on going. Living is a right, not a privilege."

*saves link in personal cache*

I don't know where you got that, but it's awesome.


OT: An actual, living, breathing promethean soldier. In Halo 5, along with the prometheans that were made via composer, The Didact will find a shield world with remaining forerunners on it, wake them up, take them under his command, and have them fight us. You know, considering the composer was the only source of the promethean knights, we may not see a lot of them in Halo 6, probably not even in Halo 5. We'll be fighting actual forerunners soon, I hope you know that.

Yes. We need to get this idea forwarded to 343 ASAP

Driven by success.
Follow me if you wish:@JamilDeanTriaa

Just one big flaw in that idea: Spartans don't have sex drives.

Not Spartan IVs, according to Spartan Ops. Oh, and add in a hard light whip with that Promethean harlot, please.
