Jiralhanae Stalker

The Stalker is a Brute (Jiralhanae) rank.

Stalkers are covered in grey armor, and possess integrated circuitry for Active Camo in their Power Armor. They often use Radar Jammers to confuse their prey, and are the main users of Incendiary Grenades. It is unknown how brutes are promoted to this rank(maybe the casualties they inflict), but they are commonly seen acting as spies and bodyguards for Brute Chieftains. The Stalkers replaced the Stealth Elites of Halo 2 after the Elites became Separatists from the Covenant. Mcfarlane is also going to release an action figure of a brute stalker for it's second series of action figures.

Appearance
The Brute Stalker does not appear in Halo 2, and is featured in Halo 3 levels: The Ark, and The Covenant, using their active camouflage to protect their Chieftains. The armor is a misty blue with power armor covering its legs. A large helmets hides their eyes and a red-orange light, possibly a laser sight, sits on the helmet front.

Combat
Stalkers often employ Plasma Rifles and Incendiary Grenades in battle. Use your weapon and melee, they will be stunned and temporarily visible. Follow up with more melees until they're dead. Charge a Plasma Pistol and fire at the movement shimmers and it will usually strip their power armor and the Brute may go beserk, dodge the physical attacks and finish off with a melee. On higher difficulties, it is advised to use grenades, as they will blow their cover, and they can be quickly finished off by a quick automatic Fire weapon. Watch for enemy fire and destroy any Radar Jammers. Useing the Power Drain will also strip their armor off, resulting them being visible.Another way to spot a Stalker is, if the Stalker is standing on a glass floor, look at the glass, and their feet will be visible. Defeating them is the best way to get incendiary grenades.
