* In ''Halo 2'', all of the Sangheili forms encountered use one armor palette; the [[Sangheili Minor|Minor]] [[Sangheili combat harness|Combat Harness]]. In ''Halo 3'' however, the Sangheili Forms will retain its host's armor palette. Strength of each Sangheili Form will be dependent on the ranks of its host; an infected [[Sangheili Major]] will be considerably harder to kill than a [[Sangheili Minor]]. Killing a Sangheili combat form is easier than a human combat form, a shot from a Carbine or Battle Rifle will take one down immediately. | * In ''Halo 2'', all of the Sangheili forms encountered use one armor palette; the [[Sangheili Minor|Minor]] [[Sangheili combat harness|Combat Harness]].

* Flood combat forms seem to take on physiological and biological changes throughout the Halo trilogy; these changes from game to game could be due to the Gravemind's influence in attempting to create a better Flood soldier or they could simply be graphical updates. | * Flood combat forms seem to take on physiological and biological changes throughout the Halo trilogy; these changes from game to game could be due to the Gravemind's influence in attempting to create a better Flood soldier or they could simply be graphical updates. | ||
* While most Flood combat forms wield the weapons of their host's former species, it is not uncommon to encounter them using weapons that their hosts never could have or would have used - human forms can be seen with Covenant weapons, Sangheili forms can be seen with Jiralhanae weapons, Jiralhanae forms can be seen with human weapons, and many other strange combinations exist, all of which would be rare for their 'living' counterparts. | |||
* In all of the ''Halo'' games, Flood combat forms always hold certain two-handed weapons with one hand, and can actually reload them without doing a reload animation. These weapons include the [[M90 Close Assault Weapon System|Shotgun]], the [[M41 Surface-to-Surface Rocket Medium Anti-Vehicle/Assault Weapon|Rocket Launcher]], the [[MA5B Individual Combat Weapon System|Assault Rifle]] and others. They can also use the [[M6D Personal Defense Weapon System|Magnum]] with one hand and reload it without doing any animation for it. | * In all of the ''Halo'' games, Flood combat forms always hold certain two-handed weapons with one hand, and can actually reload them without doing a reload animation.
