Talk:Type-26 Wraith

Until the game comes out, shouldn't the Unknown Wraith be a section on this page? --  Councillor  Specops306  -  Kora   'Morhek  03:59, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Yeah what ever happened to the unknown wraith and it's article? It's not even in the deleted content or vehicles sections of halopedia.Greatleader 17:03, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

I'm working on a foam model of a wraith, and the dimensions seem really wrong. The article says that the wraith is 28 feet long by 12 feet wide, by 9.8 feet tall. By playing the game and looking at other renders, it seems impossible that the wraith is over twice as long as it is wide. However, one of those dimensions may be correct, and I don't know which one(s) are right, so I'm not editing the article. When I get back to my dorm, I'll have a look in the Encyclopedia, and see if there are dimensions there. Anton-044 16:17, 16 December 2010 (EST)

Boren's Syndrome
If exposure to high levels of plasma radiation cause BS, then wouldnt the plasma explosion from a wraith be a cause as well? --White Chocolate 05:06, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

No. You would die.... hehehe, you said BS. Echo-77 20:07, June 29, 2010 (UTC)

Marines??
In Halo 2 I have NEVER seen a Marine drive a Wraith yet the articles says they can. So can or can't they??--Arabsbananas 20:38, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

I don't know if they really are able to. On the Halo 3 level "The Storm", I had a marine drive a Wraith. I wasn't sure if he was suppposed to or not. Rezo  'Scratoqee  (Talk) 19:43, June 29, 2010 (UTC)

I now figured out that Marines can drive Wraiths. But, they can't to it by themselves. Only if you go sit in the turret a Marine might get in your Wraith. Rezo  'Scratoqee  (Talk) 18:06, July 27, 2010 (UTC)

Wraith Driveability in ODST?
I have yet to drive a Wraith in ODST, yet on the Bungie.net Tools of Destruction for ODST, it shows you can pilot both the Wraith and the gunner for the Wraith. Is this a mistake on Bungie's part, or can you legitimately drive a Wraith in ODST?


 * You can drive a normal Wraith on Halo 3: ODST, I drove one on the level Coastal Highway. You can drive Anti-Air Wraiths with the normal glitch. Rezo 'Scratoqee 20:06, June 8, 2010 (UTC)

Type 26
According to the new info on the Halo: Reach page, it seems that the Wraith in Reach is designated Type-26 instead of Type 25. It's possible that this is just a typo, or that it's a different model. Still, it's clear that it hasn't changed much. The question is, does the Type 26 warrant its own article? I think it'd be sort of pointless, as it appears to be nearly identical in all respects to the H3 one - only with a slightly different designation. In any case, what should we do with the page title? Just keep it the way it is? --Jugus (Talk  | Contribs ) 11:50, April 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * Do it. All variations have required different articles in the past. However, I am a little miffed that Bungie has given a new designation to a vehicle that seems identical to the H3 version. Instead, I'd rather see new designations to the H2 (two autoturrets, no manned turret) and H1 (totttallllyy different) versions of the Wraith.--Nerfherder1428 13:37, April 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yeah, it's sort of odd they'd give the Reach Wraith a different designation since a lot of the other weapons and vehicles (like the Banshee) look totally different from their earlier incarnations, but still have the same designations. The Wraith is basically identical to the H3 one, yet it's apparently a different model. Also, they never said the H1 and H2 Wraiths aren't a different model - in fact, it's likely that they are, considering their differences. It's just us who've crammed them all into the same article, much like the Type-26 Anti-Infantry Stationary Gun. --Jugus (Talk  | Contribs ) 13:45, April 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * Exactly! It's always bugged me that we group everything (The turrets, the Scarabs, etc.) together without evidence. It's a pity that we just don't have the evidence to separate them either. It wouldn't be so hard for Bungie to even just come up with names off the top of their head in order to appease the fan community. But, unfortunately, that's not going to randomly happen and no one will contact them for the answers.--Nerfherder1428 14:15, April 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * To be honest, the problem started because of the lack of sources/evidences back in 2007/08. The community back then were more focused on the number of articles (quantity) and ignored quality. Much of it was because of the Halo 3 hype. As such, we now face a huge issue in Halopedia as to verifying the validity of the subject. I don't even know where they came up with all these designations. If there's enough evidence to suggest that the subject is warrants its own article (such case is the NMPD Pelican), then it should be separated. However, if it is merely a redesignation and it still retains the same role, it should be merged. As in the case of the Scarab, I do believe that the H3-version is totally different from the H2-version and it should earn its own article, but there is no sufficient evidence to support it.-  5 əb'7 aŋk (Σάπτανκ ) 15:56, April 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * maybe halo 3 and reach models are both type-26 and halo 2 model is type-25.SPARTAN IIIIIIIIII 15:43, April 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * The Heatmaps list it as type 26. I suggest creating a seprate section for it or just mention this in the trivia. the heatmaps also mention:
 * Warthogs armants: M12 FAV(???), M79 MLRS (Rockets), M68 ALIM (gauss). NONE of those pages have those names on them as redirects or mention them as alterntive names in bold as most artciles do. (execpt for http://halopedian.com/M79_MLRS, which is in need of editing). I suggest somone scout the heatmaps for offical names o everything and update the wiki as needed.

Tank or Artillery?
I have this feeling that the Wraith is artillery as its fires one direction the shots are in a arc and these are not really properties of a tank but it is effective and i like the Wraith but i dont think its a tank. A tank can turn its main weapon 360 and fires straightJay96 09:56, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

Not all tanks can traverse there turrets 360 degrees. You do bring up a good point though.Blahmarrow 17:40, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

I find that it fills the roles of both. The Mortar does exceptionally well in close range, and the longer ranges are effective as well. I also don't see it necessary for it to haave a rotating cannon due to the ability of turning in place (and quickly), which no treaded or wheeled tank can do.
