They are slightly more heavily armored and somewhat more aggressive than the bottom-ranking [[Unggoy Conscript]]s. Like the Conscripts, Unggoy Assaults tend to panic and flee if they witness the deaths of their [[Sangheili]] or [[Jiralhanae]] officers. Also like the Conscripts, Assaults will occasionally turn [[Suicide Unggoy|suicidal]], equipping two {{Pattern|Anskum|plasma grenade}}s in a last ditch attempt to kill their opponents. | ||

The Assault rank was specifically designed for direct application of combat forces against an enemy site or asset. Assault Unggoy are better armored than [[Unggoy Conscript|Conscripts]] because of a fully sealed helmet. Before Unggoy can join the Assault class they most go through a rigorous training exercise which was designed specifically to root out weakness in their ranks.{{Ref/Book|Id=EN|Enc22|Page=430}} | |||
Numerous Unggoy Assaults fought for the [[Banished]] during the faction's [[Battle for Zeta Halo|occupation]] of [[Installation 07]]. | |||
