Honor Guard Elites' armor can take as much damage as that of a [[Sangheili Major]]. They carry [[Honor Guard Pike|ceremonial pikes]], but in combat they often make use of energy swords, [[Type-25 Directed Energy Rifle|plasma rifles]], or [[Type-51 Carbine|Covenant carbines]]. They seem to [[Dual Wielding|dual wield]] plasma rifles more often than other Elite types. More wary and agile than the [[Jiralhanae Honor Guardsman|Brute Honor Guards]], their speed and quick reflexes with the energy sword, paired with their skill with the plasma rifle's rapid fire, made them quite formidable foes.

In ''[[Halo Wars 2]]'' the Sangheili Honor Guard is exclusive to [[Shipmaster]] [[Let 'Volir]] and can be built at the [[War Council]]. Honor Guards are great against infantry and vehicles, okay against structures, and cannot attack aircraft. Unlike their ''Halo Wars'' counterparts only one Honor Guard can be deployed by the player at a time, but have a lot more health, do a lot more damage, and have permanent active camouflage. In Blitz a Honor Guard costs 190 energy.
