 [[Image:Porta.jpg|thumb|A Porta as it appears in [[Halo 3]].]]Once the Flood has access to enough calcium, they begin to develop a hardened carapace, onto which the add [[LF.Xx.3273 Flood Super Cell|Flood Super Cells]] to form [[Pure Form|Pure Forms]], a form of independent Flood drone which has no need for a host. As a result of this development, Combat Forms are relegated to defensive positions or are converted into more pure forms <ref>''[[Halo 3]]''</ref>.
-The functions of objects, such as doors, are [[Porta|replaced]] as pouch forms grow over the original architecture. Under the [[Gravemind|Gravemind's]] orders, life support systems are sabotaged in order to speed up the surrender of the inhabitants <ref>[[Dialogue Placeholders]] [[Cortana]]: "Flood spores have contaminated the city's life-support infrastructure - the filtration systems are overloading!"</ref>. The pouch forms eventually consume most or all of the original area. The pouch forms grow large, pustule-like [[Flood Growth Pods|growths]], which incubate new infection forms, essentially replacing Carrier Forms and further reducing the Flood's dependence on hosts.

-Once the process is complete, the Flood disposes of almost all need for new biomass, becoming self-sustaining. despite this, due to the Flood's natural instinct to infect and consume all life, the parasite rarely becomes content at this stage.
