Anyone else? I'd like to make the page more accurate but I'd like to make sure it's something agreed upon first.--[[User talk:Soul reaper|Soul reaper]] 05:04, 11 June 2012 (EDT)

:I would just like to point out that the reason Zealots did not show any Halo 3 images is because we have no description of what their appearance would be in Halo 3. With the advent of the new armor permutation system in that game, we would think that they would receive their own armor configuration and not rely on the traditional "combat-harness + gold/yellow color" scheme; this stems from what we saw with the SpecOps which received their own armor configuration. In other words, the reason is because there is no information to back those Halo 3 images up for the Zealot group.

:This is quite different with the Major rank which can be supported with the text from Halo Encyclopedia. Because of this text, it can be assumed that Officer is a sub-class. Since the text does not contradict anything, it is considered as expanding the Major rank with a sub-class. Now, simply because they do not make an appearance in the game does not preclude them from ever appearing in canon. In addition, whereas enemy variants is possible in HCE (i.e. curl-back and standard model Grunts, Elites with randomised aesthetics), this feature was not used in HCEA. If the feature was used in HCEA, then the situation would be very different. — <span style="font-size:16px; font-family:OrbitronMedium;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 07:11, 11 June 2012 (EDT)
