Ranger Sangheili are a type of Special Operations Commando Unit, though not necessarily connected to the traditional Spec Ops Sangheili, as they are specialists in anti-gravity combat. In ''[[Halo 2]]'', Rangers will use their thrusters to great effect in battle, using them to strafe while firing their weapons. They are most often seen in ''Halo 2'' when dual-wielding [[Type-25 Directed Energy Rifle|plasma rifles]], firing in prolonged bursts. Rangers sometimes also set up portable plasma cannons to provide heavy support fire against human space-capable forces.<ref>'''[[Halo 2]]''', ''{{Levelname|Cairo Station}}''</ref> Their energy shields are of about the same strength as a Minor Sangheili's and, although their tactics differ, they require the same amount of firepower to lower, rendering the wearer vulnerable.

Rangers are susceptible to [[Type-25 Directed Energy Pistol|Plasma Pistols]] and [[Type-33 Guided Munitions Launcher|Needlers]], which use their tracking ability to great effect, lowering their shields, or in the Needler's case, killing them outright. However, for long-range combat a [[BR55 Battle Rifle|Battle Rifle]], [[Type-51 Carbine|Covenant Carbine]], [[Type-50 Sniper Rifle System|Beam Rifle]], or the [[UNSC]] Sniper Rifle can allow the player to kill them from long ranges, preventing them from becoming a threat at close range.
