A Point Defense Gauntlet is a protective device carried by the Sangheili of the Covenant and later, the Separatists [1].
Operational Use
While the Point Defense Gauntlet has never been encountered by UNSC forces, it was used by Commander Rtas 'Vadumee during the destruction of the Infinite Succor. Though instead of the tri-layered shield that at least one Sangheili has seen with, this was a diamond-like shape with only one layer.
These shields are very similar to the Kig-yar Point Defense Gauntlet, except the Kig-Yar Point Defense Gauntlets produce round and deep shields while the Sangheili version is flat and less practical in a battle.
This shield is very uncommon compared to the Sangheili Personal Energy Shield.
Trivia
- This item was going to be used in Halo: Combat Evolved by Sangheili soldiers, though was replaced by the Personal Energy Shields.
- The only UNSC encounter with it is in the Halo: Combat Evolved E3 2000 Trailer.
