The [[Active camouflage|T-3 Active Camouflage]] system bends light around a structure, hiding it via advanced pattern realignment. It is rather similar to the Halo: Reach version, however, the jammer no longer makes false holstile contacts appear on the radar, rather it makes neutral contacts show up, and also in a much tighter grouping than before, therefore not only preventing the user from using it to trick enemies, but possibly giving away the users location. Despite this, it still is an effective tool for hiding outside of cover and ambushing enemies.

The [[Z-2500 Automated Protection Drone|Autosentry]] is a support drone used by the Prometheans to suppress enemy combatants. It fires at a rate similar to a battle rifle, and can be taken down in a few shots.

The [[Z-90 Photonic Coalescence Emitter/Aegis|Hardlight Shield]] fuses particles of light into a powerful barrier. The shield is deployed in front of the individual.

The [[T-27 Responsive Holographic Form Emulator|Holographic Decoy]] is designed to confuse or distract the enemies' attention. If it stops over an enemy corpse, it will actually teabag it. This is an easter egg, but actually makes it a bit more convincing. Along with this, aiming at a hologram deployed by an enemy will make your reticule turn red, making the decoy even more convincing. However, it still can be distinguished by its linear path, lack of shield flare, and the fact that it won't react to the environment.

The short-range full-spectrum enhancement armor ability, or "[[Z-5080 Short-Range Spectrum Augmenter/Vision|Promethean Vision]]" allows a person to see through solid objects, keeping them apprised of approaching enemies from any direction. It also renders cloaked enemies visible. Another use for this ability is to be able to line up your shots while in cover. It is of note that while it does have a ''massive'' range, it is not infinite. However, in multiplayer, its range is large enough that this likely won't affect you in multiplayer.

The [[M805X Forward Acceleration System/Fulcrum Mitigating|thruster pack]] allows Spartans equipped with the [GEN2] MJOLNIR armor to navigate easily across any terrain. It also can be used to speed ones decent off an edge (you fall faster) and has  [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0mnIuNlMWk&list=UUdnbmtBwMzOjYVG6SsLIq-g&index=24| numerous] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_y0hfCBD52E&list=UUdnbmtBwMzOjYVG6SsLIq-g&index=36| tricks] that can be used to [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KoB2emodwc&list=UUdnbmtBwMzOjYVG6SsLIq-g&index=29| navigate maps], and even [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_zx9mO_WSw&list=UUdnbmtBwMzOjYVG6SsLIq-g&index=2| a trick to survive sticky grenades.] In terms of its intended purpose, moving out of danger, it does ok, but you don't go that far.
