Talk:Sangheili Storm: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 06:01, September 11, 2015

The article says that the Storm Elites are part of the Jul's Faction, so why The Swords of Sanghelios wear the same armor as the Storm Elites? Shouldn't they wear the original elite armor? --Firex (talk) 12:56, 1 September 2015 (EDT)

I believe Grimbrother 1 answered this in the forums so I am going to try to emulate him. They use whatever armor they can. Alertfiend (talk) 19:10, 1 September 2015 (EDT)

Yes, I remember Grim saying that there isn't one uniform armor that they use, the armor that they are wearing in Halo 5 is just the one most readily available. So the armor used by the Swords of Sanghelios in Halo 2 Anniversary is still in use somewhere. -- Topal the Pilot

Swords of Sanghelios

Isn't it a bit of a stretch to assume that the SoS actually uses the Storm rank on the basis of the similar armor? The armor isn't even identical to that used by Jul's group, and in any case I don't think armor alone should be taken as a confirmation that Thel employs a similar rank structure. --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 04:16, 11 September 2015 (EDT)

Agreed. If we were going by basis or armour type alone as an indicator of rank, we'd have to say most of the Elites in Halo CE, Halo 2 or Halo 3 are the same rank. I would expect that it's a common helmet type that entered service among the Elites in general after the war, and Mdama just happens to have a lot of them he issues to his Storm Elites. We know that a lot of their materiel has been acquired, either bought or stolen, from other sources, so why not the helmets? It's notable that, in-game, we don't see Storm fight alongside Minors. In fact, Storm is the lowest rank an Elite can have in the new Covenant. It's entirely possible that the new Covenant call their Minors "Storm" because it sounds less emasculating. -- Qura 'Morhek ^{The Autocrat} ^{of Morheka} 05:49, 11 September 2015 (EDT)

IMHO I think most of the Storm Sangheili are from Hesduros due to the planet being isolated which might just mean they have older tech, same tech Thel might just bring out because maybe he has a large cache of them. As I think I read somewhere (to tired to look) that Sangheili rank up out of merit. The SoS might just be using them in a similar fashion but I would assume 343 would have different reasons. I am dazed right now so I am sorry if I do not make sense. Alertfiend (talk) 06:01, 11 September 2015 (EDT)
