During the [[Skirmish over Threshold]], due to damage from a plasma blast to the armor's chest at relatively close range with the shot raising the armor's internal temperature to over sixty degrees Celsius, John's armor's energy shields were knocked off-line and unable to recharge. Furthermore, due to damage from a [[Stealth Sangheili]]'s [[Type-1 energy sword]], the armor was breached. However, the armor was able to function fine without the shields and breached, though John was forced to adjust his tactics to match his lack of shields. A [[Huragok]] was later able to repair the damage to the shield system and restore the energy shields on the orders of [[Cortana]].<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]] - Definitive Edition''', ''pages 90-96 103-106, 112-120''</ref> The suit itself was later repaired at some point which allowed John to take part in a zero-gee operation on the hull of the ''[[Ascendant Justice]]'' where John's suit and that of the rest of [[Blue Team]] saved them from a near-miss from a Covenant [[plasma torpedo]], though [[Anton-044]] and [[Li-008]] were vaporized from a direct hit by the torpedo.

Even with the | During [[Operation: FIRST STRIKE]], a [[Jiralhanae]] was able to break through John's shields through brute force and strangle him within the armor. Even with the Jiralhane strangling him, the armor's shields still began to recharge. Once they reached one-quarter charged, John was able to combine the repulsive force generated by the shield and his own training to break free and kill the Jiralhanane.<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]] - Definitive Edition''', ''pages 373-375''</ref> | ||
