well.. its more a test of spirit than relying on technology... plus I guess the prophets are cheap asses and dont wanna spend another dime on updating gear

however.. considering arbiters go on suicide missions.. why bother giving them expensive stuff to die with?

They do have the same shield that the humans stole off them and used on Master Chief. So he is not totally defenceless

Because it's the ARBITER suit, and it's the oldest. The base of the Forerunner tech that spawned the current Elite suits.

The suit is more of a statement of that elites fighting skills and the fact the prophets have sent the arbiter to deal with the situation.

Also the armor gives him control over all the other covenant warriors under the prophets command.

The whole covenant army fights for religious principles, and the suit is almost godlike to them

Because it was to remind you just how lame the Arbiter was. I mean, he talked like Gandalf. That's very wrong. It just made you want to play as Master chief some more.

In fact, a lot of Halo 2's story mode kept making me want to do other things.

Yeah when I saw the Gravemind (Little Shop of Horrors Plant) I thought "what was Bungie on when they developed this". Probably something plant related big grin
I really like the Arbiter levels. Being backed up by a squad of Elites and on the odd occasion a couple of Hunters beats the hell out of being flanked by lame Marines.

I suppose they did that for gameplay sake, I mean imagine running around with unlimited cloak on? a tad bit boring IMO. I do wish that the Power sword had unlimited ammo though...

I kinda liked the look of the Arbiter's armour, though the Elite's Royal Guard armour defacates all over it big grin

THATS WHAT THEY LOOKED LIKE! I could never put my finger on it, But still, The High Red Armor, Rocked...

Arbiters armor wasn't for defense, merely a symbol, that even the most technilogically crappy armor is still good when put on an elite...

o.0 brilliant Idea... Playing, As, A, HUNTER! I"M A GENIOUS.

The Covenant has different ways then we do. Every Arbiter from the first wore that armor and it was a symbol of the Arbiter. They kept the armor safe and well protected until another Arbiter was needed.

I did not know an Elite was real. And the first time I was playing Halo 2 my mom thought it was a movie. When the Arbiter was talking to that other Elite on the phantom.

you can make photo realistic textures and apply them to the aliens.. if you noticed alot of these "fantasy" animals are just parts taken from the animals we have on earth.. elites look like they would have reptilian textured skin and perhaps bird eyes..

photo-realistic doesnt mean "OMG IT HAS TO HAVE EXISTED"... thats why there are creative people in the world yes
