*In ''[[Halo 3]]'', the shield barrier can sometimes be destroyed from the outside by explosives. The shield is not scripted to block the splash damage of explosives, therefore the generator is vulnerable.

It may also be destroyed by ramming the generation point hard enough with a vehicle; it is possible that minor splash damage occurs upon the crash, thus destroying the barrier. | *In ''[[Halo 3]]'', the shield barrier can sometimes be destroyed from the outside by explosives.
