'''Field Master''' is a very high position/office for the [[Covenant]]'s [[Elites]] as it is in the [[Zealot]] offices. Field Masters command at least one [[Legion]] of troops.

The Field Master<ref>''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', page 217</ref> is equivalent to the [[UNSC]] [[Marine]] "[[General (UNSC)|General]]" or "[[Colonel (UNSC)|Colonel]]". Field Masters command entire armies, [[Battalion]] strength or greater. Unlike [[human]] "[[General (UNSC)|General]]s", Field Masters take a much more active role in combat, charging into the battle with their troops rather than giving orders from HQ miles away from the conflict. They are in charge of all warriors of any race within that army, as well as all armor, air support and material utilized by that army. An example of this is [[Noga 'Putumee]], who led forces against the humans on [[Installation 04]].

A Zealot Field Master usually worked alone in both games. Waiting for you to kill everyone else, then they'd attack by themselves. In [[Halo: Combat Evolved]], Zealot Field Masters were a fairly common sight on any difficulty, usually guarding places of importance. On average there were probably two to three Zealots on any one level. Although, Field Masters in [[Halo 2]] were much more sneaky and only appeared on the [[Legendary]] difficulty with few exceptions.

In Halo 2, during the levels [[Sacred Icon (Level)|Sacred Icon]] and [[Quarantine Zone (Level)|Quarantine Zone]], the player comes across a band of Elites being led by [[Rtas 'Vadumee]]. He appears to be the highest-ranking Elite there, before the [[Arbiter (character)|Arbiter]] arrives and thus probably would've held the title "Field Master".
