Summary
The Elite's armor generates a recharging energy shield which is similar to the MJOLNIR shields. This shield recharges after being depleted and can be enhanced by the Covenant's overshield technology. These shields are a better, more efficient version of the Jackal's energy shields. There appear to be differences in the strength of the shields, and different ranks of Elites have different amounts of power and recharge capacity in their shield.
These shields have weaknesses however, as they are susceptible to damage received from plasma based weapons. We are unaware if the shield can be modified like the MJOLNIR suit, which can have it's thickness and proximity to the body altered.These shields are blue unlike their MJOLNIR equivalents.
These shields need to be switched on in the novels so sniping with the element of surprise is more effective, but they are always on in the games.
