Subject: How Prophets Fight!?

Play as a team win as a team or die as a team!


I was wondering how the hell do Prophet fight back like some mind powers or a gun at the Chair he is sitting on(like on Wild Wild West that guy in the WhellChair) LoL I know they will be guarded or something but u kill his body guards and the Prophets are by themselfs how do they fight and shoot? Do they charge u with their flying chair(like the flying monsters on Dunk Nukem)LoL or do they have a Gun? Does anyone know and if someone said this before this is my first time reading about it and if u seen a pic or know a Website with information about that plz share with us all and post it and try to make it a Link!!! Thanks

-S

They might not fight at all. When the Engineers were still in Halo 1, they did not fight at all.

Im guessing they won't fight as its been said somewhere they're guarded by brutes normally, and brutes are pretty hard from the sounds of it. They're there for plot and show I guess, so tops they might have a plasma pistol or maybe they're chairs dangerously explode when they die just to make it interesting.

I do belive that in either a Frankie update or OXM, it was stated that the Prophets will have some sort of attack. More than likely those chairs of theirs have a few guns installed. Undoubtedly it will be a plasma weapon of some sort.

The Engineers were not precursors to the Flood Carrier. They were a seperate alien race and a part of the Covenant. They were originally planned to be put in Halo, but later taken out. Perhaps people would be more willing to reply to you if you used some punctuation to make your posts easier to read.

The Engineers never died. They are members of the Covenant. Their name gives an apt description of what they do. You can read about them in the Covenant Primer.

You can see an early Halo render of them here.

God Damn people! You all need to read First Strike. Engineers are most certainly part of the Halo Universe and their certainly not all dead! Im sure they will make an appearence in the Covenant Homeworld level.

Like Mr Burns for the Simpsons! Only they are weak as hell! Actually, I think they are going to run around like sissies while you have to fight off their back up! And they are going to be really fast! And really ugly!

With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.

Does anyone ever read anything posted in the news section of this site?! It explains all about the Engineers, and they are not precursors to the carrier form of Flood. There's even an old pic of one, released after E3 2000... I don't have the link for it, though. But, you can find it at Halo.bungie.org's screenshot database (look at the ones under the year 2000). Its a floaty thingy facing the Master Chief, and it has tenticles... its pretty ugly (pardon the contradiction).

Anyhow, Prophets fart lightning for their attack, and the Engineers piss lasers (the Prophet Fart concept was created by The Rip Saw, and the Engineers' piss was mine. The Rip Saw should have links to both (I'm not that sure, though... I don't know if he saved them), and he is credited to the artwork).


...... And that statement (above, second paragraph) was a joke... although the concepts and artwork still exist, it won't be in the game....

I agree with supertoy partially. Everyon go out and read all the halo books if you havent done so already. But how do you know there will be a Covenant Homeworld level?

I bet that if MC fights a Prophet, It'll dodge so effectivly that it will fustrate MC to death.
why did I say that?

Bungie has said before that prophets dont fight, theres probally a mission where you have to capture a prophet and he probally will have brute bodyguards,plus if you have seen the Halo 2 documentery theres a screenshot behind there alien desighner with a prophet nd mchief behind him with a warthog.

a prophet is like the president; they don't fight and have a -blam!-load of bodyguards and you only assassinate them if you're a wuss ass.. that be soo cool if they farted lightning... i keep on imagining a badass battle between the MC and some brutes. after the MC kills them all badassedly, he and the prophet are alone, and it farts and sounds like thunder and shooots lightning that swirls around to kill the master chief.... heehehehehehehe

Maybe there will be a mission like the one the spartans were assinged to in The Fall of Reach.... (thinks about it and starts drooling)
