In Phase 3, the Spartans are required to retrieve the [[Covenant power module]] from the top of the Spire and deliver it to a Pelican awaiting near the beachhead. In this final Phase, both factions unlock air support vehicles to assist them in their objectives; Elites have access to a Banshee, whereas Spartans have access to a Falcon. Control of the air is heavily contested and often decides the outcome of the match. Loadouts become extremely powerful, with high-damage close combat weapons and light explosive weapons prominent. | In Phase 3, the Spartans are required to retrieve the [[Covenant power module]] from the top of the Spire and deliver it to a Pelican awaiting near the beachhead.

This stage can be extremely difficult for the Spartans because the opposition always load with the energy sword. The Elites dominate close quarters fighting while Spartans usually control the air. A way to counter this is to mount a team assault at the energy core or throw lots of grenades to flush the Elites out. | |||
