*Armor Abilities will change form depending on whether a Elite or Spartan is using them. That is, Elite will have Armor Abilities made from purple metal, while Spartans have Armor Abilities which appear dull silver and rectangular. If a player drops an Armor Ability, it will take the form of the way it appeared on the player's back. The only exception is Evade, even if a Spartan drops it, it will still appear like a Covenant ability. This is odd as while on the Spartan's back, it can clearly be seen to share a design to other Spartan Armor Abilities (dull silver and rectangular).

*In canon terms, the Armor Abilities have only been seen in use during the [[Fall of Reach]], due to the fact they were introduced in ''Halo: Reach'' as a gameplay element. As Reach was the UNSC's primary military complex, prototype technologies such as Armor Abilities may have been developed and tested exclusively on the planet, thus explaining their absence in the other games. In addition, other ''Halo'' games occur in the time period after Reach falls, having John-117 as the only Spartan working alongside regular UNSC forces with limited military assets due to the Fall of Reach. ''Halo: Reach'' is centered around a Spartan team on a UNSC fortress world, with support and equipment more readily available.
*[[NOBLE Team]] (aside from the player) can be seen sprinting or using Armor Lock without the required attachments. Likewise, [[Jiralhanae|Brutes]] and AI [[Sangheili|Elites]] use their Armor Abilities (Armor Lock or Evade) without the necessary external attachment. Brutes aren't even wearing any sort of Energy Shielding that could be supercharged with Armor Lock.

*If one were to use Hologram and walk into the projection, they would notice that no matter what helmet they are wearing, the inside of the helmet of the hologram will always be the same. One can see this at the beginning of [[Noble Actual]] when Noble Six puts on his/her helmet. This was likely done to save time and resources.
