'''Armor customization''' in ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'' allows players to customize their [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan]] player model. These armor sets can be obtained by getting to a certain rank in the game along with unlocking achievements in ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'' and obtaining armor in [[Requisition system|REQ packs]]. Unlike ''[[Halo 4]]'', armor customization in ''Halo 5: Guardians'' is limited to the helmet, armor, and visor. In addition, new armor permutations were released post-launch via REQ content updates as was the case for Mark IV and Mark V sets, for example.

==Overview==
''Halo 5: Guardians'' features more customization slots than launch ''[[Armor customization (Halo 2: Anniversary)|Halo 2: Anniversary]]'', yet, features much less than ''[[Armor customization (Halo 4)|Halo 4]]''. The three slots available for armor customization include the '''Helmet''', the '''Armor''', and the '''Visor''' with previously player decided armor pieces (such as legs, wrists, and shoulders) being determined by the base armor the player chooses. Aesthetically, the armor of ''Halo 5: Guardians'' is based upon the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)|MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor [GEN2]]] model, much like ''Halo 4'', and also allows for armor skins, enabling further unique customization options. ''Halo 5'' doesn't allow the player to switch to an Elite, be it for multiplayer, [[Forge]], or custom games.

Unlocking armor can be done in a few  potential ways; for example, earning achievements present in ''Halo: The Master Chief Collection'' such as "[[Legend (Halo: The Master Chief Collection achievement)|Legend]]", which grants the player [[HELIOSKRILL-class Mjolnir|Helioskrill]] armor. It should be noted that armor unlocked by achievements in ''The Master Chief Collection'' were later able to be obtained in the general REQ pool.

In February 2017, a special REQ pack known as the "Classic Helmet REQ pack" was released as a standalone purchasable item containing nine helmets: [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark V#Halo 5: Guardians|Mark V Delta]], [[CQB-class Mjolnir|CQB]], [[RECON-class Mjolnir|Recon [Gen1]]], [[MP-class Mjolnir|Military Police]], [[EOD-class Mjolnir|EOD]], [[PILOT-class Mjolnir|Pilot]], [[OPERATOR-class Mjolnir|Operator [Gen1]]], [[SECURITY-class Mjolnir|Security [Gen1]]], and [[EVA-class Mjolnir|EVA [Gen1]]]. These nine helmets were not a part of the general REQ pool, much like HCS branded items.

[[ACHILLES-class Mjolnir|Achilles]] armor follows a unique unlock trend, as it requires the completion of the 31 "Kill" commendations that are available to [[Spartan Company|Spartan companies]]. Upon the completion of level 3 for all "Kill" commendations, the body armor for Achilles is granted to the player, and upon the completion of level 5 for all, the helmet is granted. With the release of ''Halo 5's'' "evergreen" season, and the cessation of support for older elements of ''Halo Waypoint'', Achilles armor was made inaccessible at the end of 2021 as challenges involving companies could no longer be completed.
