In ''[[Halo 2]]'', Forerunner elevators appear in the levels [[The Arbiter]] and [[The Oracle]] throughout the [[Gas Mine]]. There is one elevator that takes the player from an upper level down to a hangar. It has an octagonal shape, with two symmetrical control panels. One is placed on the right side of the entrance, the other on the front and center wall.

A second, unique elevator appears almost immediately after the beginning of the level The Oracle. It drops down through a Flood Research Facility. It takes in large canisters, then stores them in breakable fixtures on the surface. It is symmetrical and completely geometric. It is not controlled by the player. This is the only observed rotating elevator, it is also the only elevator that starts and stops between its destinations. | A second, unique elevator appears almost immediately after the beginning of the level The Oracle.

Their control panels are circular with geometric details inside the circle. In the control panel, the [[Marathon]] symbol can be seen. | ||

Humans use lifts in all sorts of structures, including starships and [[space station]]s. Human lifts are mostly traditional and practical in design. They are usually powered by conventional methods, such as cables or tracks. Additionally, humans use [[space elevator]]s, massive structures stretching from a planet's surface to [[geosynchronous orbit]], to ferry cargo into space. Constructed of [[carbon nanofiber]], these elevators are powered by strands of superconducting material, similar to [[MagLev | Humans use lifts in all sorts of structures, including starships and [[space station]]s.

Human-made lifts can be seen throughout the ''Halo'' games in various levels.

In ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', John-117 rides a large cargo lift from the [[engineering]] of the ''[[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|Pillar of Autumn]]'' to the ship's dorsal service corridor. In ''Halo 2'', a large elevator with two decks is used on the level [[Cairo Station (level)|Cairo Station]]. Human elevators are encountered in ''Halo 3'' in the levels [[Crow's Nest (level)|Crow's Nest]] and [[The Storm]], and are seen throughout different facilities in [[New Mombasa]] in ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]''. They also appear in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', in the levels [[ONI: Sword Base]], [[New Alexandria (level)|New Alexandria]] and [[The Package (level)|The Package]]. | ||

Gravity lifts are mostly used in Covenant cities and structures, such as [[High Charity]]. They are also used in Covenant starships to transport and deploy troops and objects to a surface safely. Additionally, anti-gravity technology is also used in smaller pieces of equipment, such as [[Portable Gravity Lift]]s or [[deployable lookout tower]]s. | Gravity lifts are mostly used in Covenant cities and structures, such as [[High Charity]].

Usable Covenant gravity lifts appear throughout the games, mostly in form of smaller applications such as lookout towers.

Ship-borne gravity lifts are used in the ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' levels [[The Truth and Reconciliation]] and [[Keyes]]. Different gravity lift variants such as long conduits that run inside the towers of ''High Charity'' are encountered in the ''Halo 2'' levels [[Gravemind (level)|Gravemind]] and [[High Charity (level)|High Charity]]. In ''Halo: Reach'', [[Spire One]] in [[Tip of the Spear]] possesses two gravity lifts that can be used to reach the top. | ||
