'''Cloaking''' is a form of [[equipment]] in [[Halo 3]]. It can be found on many levels in [[campaign]], and offers a full [[Halo: Combat Evolved]] and [[Halo 2]] style blending ability. Once activated, it has the same function as [[Active Camouflage]] from the first two games. One notable difference between Cloaking and active camouflage is that cloaking is equipment, so once it is picked up, it can be used when the player chooses, whereas active camouflage becomes active as soon the player walks over it. Another obvious difference is that the camoflages ability increases through Halo:Combat Evolved to Halo 3. One more difference is that cloaking has much shorter invisibility span than the active camouflage. The symbol for the cloaking on the [[HUD]] resembles the active camouflage powerup from the first two games - a triangle with an eye in the middle. Enemies will not notice you in Camo as long as you don't do anything to disrupt the Camo e.g. Fire a Weapon, Receive Damage. | '''Cloaking''' is a form of [[equipment]] in [[Halo 3]].

Cloaking is a form of equipment in Halo 3. It can be found on many levels in campaign, and offers a full Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2 style blending ability. Once activated, it has the same function as Active Camouflage from the first two games. One notable difference between Cloaking and active camouflage is that cloaking is equipment, so once it is picked up, it can be used when the player chooses, whereas active camouflage becomes active as soon the player walks over it. Another obvious difference is that the camoflages ability increases through Halo: Combat Evolved to Halo 3. One more difference is that cloaking has much shorter invisibility span than the active camouflage. The symbol for the cloaking on the HUD resembles the active camouflage powerup from the first two games - a triangle with an eye in the middle. Enemies will not notice you in Camo as long as you don't do anything to disrupt the Camo e.g. Fire a Weapon, Receive Damage.
The cloaking equipment is absent from multiplayer, and even in Forge. The active camouflage powerup, like those in previous games, is there as a replacement.
In appearance, it resembles a large deactivated energy sword handle (albeit one that glows and has a slightly bluish smoking effect) when not being used. It also resembles the invincibility power up.
It is first encountered on the second level, Crow's Nest.
