i think there will be profets in the game right? well if we have to fight them and we first shoot all the elites/brutes who are protecting him, what will they do, do they use guns, shields, or maybe there floting platform has weapons.
what do you think
it also would be cool if you played all the levels on normal, heroic, and legendary, you would get like a logo (maybe the halo logo) on you back.

Interesting ideas... especially the one about getting a logo if you complete the game on certain difficulties.
As for the prophets, they're gaurds are (at least according to the books) the Brutes. I'm thinking just two of them will be harder to beat than five or six Elites.

but still, if you first shoot the brutes, what will the prophets do?

That being said, do you think a single melee attack to the back of the head will be enough to take down a Brute?

Well,he can lift a tank in 1 hand,so yeah,I think he can melee a Brute in he back and kill it.

I like the logo idea. Bungie have said the Prophets will be week, hence the guards I guess. Maybe they'll just float around untill you poke them in the eye or something, or they might be grunt like fighters being all intellectual only, Ie crappy with a pistol for protetcion.

What if they had mind-bending powers?

Most likely the Prophets will either run off to find help, run off and hide or call for help.

I doubt that they would have weapons.And if they do it will be something crap like a pistol (which they don't know how to use as good as the grunts, no matter what difficulty it is on).

They ARE an enemy but I wouldn't consider them a fighting enemy. They'll probably rely on guards and protection from others. Very important to the covanent but useless as fighters.

It would be cool if everyone thought that the prophets were extremely weak and useless. You leave them because you know they won't fight. You turn your back and then... BOOM! they fire a fuel rod at you.

Also I would guess a living prophet would be very useful to humans. They could force it to give them information. Like in Starship Troopers with the 'brain bugs'.

its been rumored that prophets can control things with their minds so in the event we saw one he might use his mind to prevent you from killing it. i do not think we will see many prophets in the game though because of their status as religous leaders and not fighters

it was not to long ago when the bungie site talked about the prophets it said something about the prophets being strong in the mind(smart) and not have mind bending powers like a jedi night. but they are also physically weak so i assume they will have no weapons and be pretty much defenceless

They are too weak to fight. Here is what would happen if MC and a prophet fought. The prophet would fly his thing full speed at MC. MC would make dinner. Prophet continues to fly as fast as he can. MC eats dinner. Prophet accelerates. MC cleans up dinner. Prophet can barely control floaty thing due to it's incredible speed. MC watches American Idol. Prophet is halfway across room. MC beats Halo on legendary. Prophet almost across room. MC eats a snack. Prophet bumbs into MC, falls from floaty thing and breaks his neck.

Maybe they will have the power to kind of generate a greater strength in the troops around them eg four brutes protecting them have more health and can't be killed easily, and they have really good moral or something so they keep charging you, i think the logo idea would be good, nothing too big maybe a number of scars on your back one to represent each difficulty.
