The General harness is a series armor designs employed by the Sangheili.
Overview[edit]
Variants[edit]
Valiant Prudence harness[edit]
This variant of the General harness was employed by Sangheili Generals serving in the Fleet of Valiant Prudence during the Fall of Reach. It features enhanced energy shielding and a command helmet.[1]
Post-war harness[edit]
Following the collapse of the Covenant empire, a number of post-Covenant warlords chose to don overly complex sets of armor - looking to fill the power gap left by the collapse of the empire or to reclaim a far older sense of honor.[2]
Jul 'Mdama's Covenant variant[edit]
Commonly employed by the Commanders and Generals serving under Jul 'Mdama's Covenant, this harness design bears notable similarities to the Valiant Prudence variant.[3]
In-game information[edit]
Halo 3[edit]
The General harness is unlockable as an armor permutation for Elite characters in Halo 3, exclusively as part of Series 7: Elite. It was one of a number of Sangheili harnesses intended to appear in Halo Online.
