*'''[[Assembler Sentinel]]''' - Assemblers are presumably used to build and maintain Forerunner installations and technology, like the similarly named Constructors. Though they are not designed for combat, they will suspend their primary duties and engage Flood forms in the event of an outbreak.{{Ref/Reuse|p167}}
*'''[[Constructor]]''' - The Constructors are specialized Sentinels, designed solely for the construction and servicing of Forerunner structures. Like Assemblers, they are not designed for combat, but they will engage the Flood if necessary.{{Ref/Reuse|p167}}

*'''[[Onyx Sentinel]]''' - Onyx Sentinels both guard and make up the artificial planet of [[Onyx]]. They use a much more powerful individual energy beam than the Aggressor, and have the ability to combine and transform themselves in order to complete a specific task. Onyx Sentinels are far more formidable opponents than more widely-used "standard" variants.
