Heretic Minors are the easiest Heretics to deal with (other than Heretic Unggoy). Mostly found wielding [[Type-51 Carbine|Covenant Carbines]], [[Sentinel Beam]]s, or [[Type-1 Energy Weapon/Sword|Energy Swords]], Heretic Minors are relatively easy to take down.

Heretic Minors will make several tactical errors, such as running forward into enemy fire, or walking into an ally's line of fire. Most Minors will stand still while firing, which can give the [[thel 'Vadam|player]] time to attack. Heretic Minors are common and will often be caught off-guard. They will often be found walking away from the Arbiter, or unaware of his approach.

Whatever the case, they all fought against the [[Thel 'Vadam|Arbiter]] and the [[Special Operations Sangheili|Special Operations Elites]] sent into the mine to silence the heresy.

The Heretic Sangheili Minor is the basic Heretic Sangheili in the Sesa 'Refumee's heretic faction.[1][2] They are distinguished among the other Sangheili by their brownish-gold armor and fin like protrusions from the back of their armor. They often lead small groups of Heretic Unggoy.[1][2]

Overview

Previously part of the Covenant's artifact retrieval group, the Heretic Sangheili Minors are fearless warriors led by Sesa 'Refumee, along with the other heretic castes. They assisted 'Refumee in fortifying the their base of operations by adding Shade defense turrets as well as providing aerial patrols with their Banshees.

Most, if not all, were killed when the Gas mine fell into the depths of Threshold, after the Arbiter cut the cables holding the mine above Threshold.[1][2]
