In game Information

Gameplay

The Trio consists of three Knight Commanders being; Animus-To-Remain, Habit-To-Sever, and Malice-Begets-Demise with the occasional addition of Rive. When Rive is present they are known as the four Commanders. The Trio spawn together in a group they appeared as enemy AI targets, often during the Firfight variant. They are more durable than standard Promethean Knight, forcing players to coordinate and focus fire to take them down.^[6] The trio primarily used LightRifles but would switch to devastating Incineration Cannons in close-quarters combat. As commanders, they had heavy armor and could also deploy autosentry turrets to overwhelm players. Their design served to train Spartans against dangerous threats in the lore, while in-game, they provided players with a challenging boss fight that awarded extra points and "Legendary Takedown" medals for defeating them.^[6]
