| Like the [[Kig-Yar Heavy]] soldiers that served in the various [[Covenant remnants|Covenant remnant]] factions, Kig-Yar Raiders wear full body armor and helmets, usually red-silver, and are equipped with stronger orange [[Kig-Yar point defense gauntlet|Point Defense Gauntlet]]. Although typically armed with the [[Rohakadu-pattern plasma pistol]]s, Raiders can also wield the [[Sicatt Workshop Disruptor]]s and the [[Ukala Workshop Mangler]]s.{{Ref/Game|Id=HI|HI}} | | Like the [[Kig-Yar Heavy]] soldiers that served in [[Covenant remnant]], Kig-Yar Raiders wear full body armor and helmets, usually red-silver and are equipped with stronger orange [[Kig-Yar point defense gauntlet|handheld energy shields]].

| Kig-Yar Raiders are most often utilized for offensive campaigns and missions that require infiltrating a heavily guarded stronghold, executing sieges, or capturing assets from enemy territory. Raiders are often conscripted from Kig-Yar rookeries with a reputation for aggression and hostility. It is possible for a [[Kig-Yar Freebooter|Freebooter]] who proves itself worthy in combat to be promoted to Raider. However, many Freebooters try to avoid this advancement in order to maintain the lowest possible risk-to-reward ratio. Banished commanders often attempt to override such hesitation with promises of wealth.{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=432}}

| ==History==
| |
| Numerous Kig-Yar Raiders participated in the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]], serving as infantry, scouts, and guards for the Banished. The [[Jiralhanae]] [[Jiralhanae Warlord|Warlord]] [[Tremonius]] was accompanied by two Kig-Yar Raiders when he confronted [[John-117]] beneath [[Outpost Tremonius (location)|Outpost Tremonius]].{{Ref/Quest|Id=Foundation|HI|Ringfall|Foundation (Halo Infinite)}}

| ==Gameplay==
| |
| In ''[[Halo Infinite]]'' Kig-Yar Raiders are typically encountered in pairs. They are significantly more durable than the lower-ranking [[Kig-Yar Freebooter|Freebooters]] as their arm shields can withstand multiple melee hits. As with the Freebooters, the [[Grappleshot]] can be used to stagger Raiders and momentarily expose them. Also like the Freebooters, Raiders tend to flee when their shields are disabled.
| |
| | |
| If engaged at close range, Raiders may attempt to melee the player with their arm shields.
