Armor customization

Armor permutations are features in Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, Halo: Reach, Halo 4, Halo 2: Anniversary, and Halo 5: Guardians, that allow players to customize their multiplayer character's armor to their liking. In Halo 3 and Halo: Reach, this feature allows players to change the armor pieces worn by their multiplayer character. Halo 3: ODST allows the player to choose between squad members, and thus take on their own specific ODST armor configuration. Players also have the option of choosing between being a Spartan or Elite in Halo 2 and Halo 3, whereas Halo: Reach allows full body customization of Elite armor along with Spartan armor. Halo 4 does not allow Elite customization or even playability, unlike most of the past games, but it does continue each game's allowance of gender choice. Halo 2: Anniversary returns Elites as playable multiplayer characters, but the option to change genders is removed. Halo 5: Guardians 's customization is very similar to Halo 4 's. Halo Online 's customization requires players to purchase armor pieces with in-game currency similar to Halo: Reach.
