Chief has his armor, but has to swim

He's screwed already

We need some dedicated lore enthusiast to tally up chief's personal body count over the course of the series.

People did that on Waypoint, tried to tally up how many lives are on the ships he's blown up, with his confirmed kills.

They just gave up and said 500,000 or more

Whereas the Arbiter is responsible for like a billion human lives

Dunno if that's in personal combat though. No doubt Arby's killed several billion through being in command of a ship glassing a planet but I doubt that he's personally killed a billion people with his own hands.

It makes for interesting thoughts though. Can only imagine what he felt when he learned the covenant religion was all a lie and that he'd essentially slaughtered innoccents.

Yeah, "responsible" just adds up all of them, from glassing, killing, commanding raids etc

I know the series is partially botched at this point, considering the direction 343 decided to go, but I'd still like to see some context brought to light. Maybe in a novel or something.

Arby comes from a warrior culture and he's good at his job of killing things. He's desensitized to death, somewhat. But that's got to be really heavy on him in some manner to realize that he'd killed that many inoccents for a lie.

10/10 animation and editing, especially when Mei had her brains splattered

Chief has his armor, but has to swim from island to island.

RIP

You can walk under the water in certain levels/maps from across the Halo games without dying. Chief will be fine.

How will he find the zones without kill barriers though?

The man rode a bomb through space and blew up a capital ship with it. I think he won't have trouble finding a stupid kill barrier.

I think he'd be more pissed about being lied to than about killing a bunch of aliens.

grorious nihhon burreto too roundu, srow, and aerodynammicary charrangu. Bypass mjulnir shieldo, then cutto through firuthy gaijin purate armoru.

But what if he's wearing Hayabusa armor?

Shamfur imitation  ofo rear armor mado by firuthy gaijin mako no diffurence.

That recon tho

They would need to know where he is at all times. Even then they don't have a nuke.
