The Field Master<ref>''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', page 217</ref> is equivalent to the [[UNSC]] [[Marine]] "[[General]]" or "[[Colonel]]". Field Masters command entire armies, [[Battalion]] strength or greater. Unlike [[human]] "Generals", Field Masters take a much more active role in combat, as in charging into the battle with their troops rather than giving orders from an HQ miles away from the conflict. They are in charge of all warriors of any race within that army, as well as all armor, air support and material utilized by that army. An example of this is [[Noga 'Putumee]], who led forces against the humans on [[Installation 04]].

A Zealot Field Master usually worked alone in both games. Waiting for you to kill everyone else, then they'd attack by themselves. In [[Halo: Combat Evolved]], Zealot Field Masters were a fairly common sight on any difficulty, usually guarding places of importance. On average there were probably two to three Zealots on any one level. Although, Field Masters in [[Halo 2]] were much more sneaky and only appeared on the [[Legendary]] difficulty with few exceptions.

So far, only Zealots have been featured as Field Masters as Field Master is a Zealot rank. Although it is highly possible that an [[Ultra]] would be a Field Master when there are no Zealots. In the [[Fleet of Retribution]] a [[Special Operations Elite]] or even a [[Major Elite|Major]] may have been forced to take on the role of Field Master. They have no changes in their golden armor to distinguish them from other members of their rank (for example, it is impossible to tell a Zealot Field Master apart from a Zealot [[Ship Master]] based on their armor alone). Should other ranks take on the position of Field Master, it is likely little or no changes to their armor would be made, perhaps it will never be.
