Although Elites are most commonly seen with [[Energy Sword]]s, [[Plasma Rifle]]s and [[Needler]]s, because of their strength and versatility, Elites can utilize ''any'' weapon in the field of battle, human or Covenant, though most Elites would rather die than use a human or Jiralhanae-oriented weapon. [[Fred-104]] theorizes that the Elites follow an edict of the Prophets that states that they should not use [[human]] weapons, based on his own sightings of Elites happily dying rather than pick up a fully loaded [[MA5B assault rifle]] at their feet. The Brutes however do not behave in a similar manner, even attempting to steal FENRIS nuclear warheads during the [[Battle of Earth]].
