Although Elites are most commonly seen with [[Energy Sword]]s, {{Pattern|Okarda'phaa|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. [[Frederic-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]]. | Although Elites are most commonly seen with [[Energy Sword]]s, {{Pattern|Okarda'phaa|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.

*The structure of their combat harnesses are somewhat different from their predecessors, especially with the chest and back portions. The armor on the sides beneath the arms are curved upwards and connected to the backpack in way that pushes directly into the back of the user's neck. This part of the armor is also thicker than the rest of the suit, which combined with the upwards curve, gives the illusion of the Sangheili user being noticably bulkier and more hunched than they actually are. | *The structure of their combat harnesses are somewhat different from their predecessors, especially with the chest and back portions.
