Chest armor is one of the most important armors to have in Halo Reach. It is the second most noticable armor behind Helmets. Make sure you pick a cool one because that is all Halo is about!

If you are going to be out there for a long time, you might as well take everything.

Kick it in; section it off; lay them out.

Oh Hell to the yeah, I’m gonna use the Collar/Grenadier UA chestplate.
I wouldn’t because it would make a head shot much easier. Sure it looks cool, but if you want to survive I would advise you don’t wear it.
Well, i wouldn’t have thought so since i would imagine that the hitboxes would remain the same. But still, i guess it might have an EVA effect.
call the colloar/breacher!!!
I like the H.A.L.O. armor. Breaching looks cool to
All armors are cosmetic and have no effect on gameplay or hit detection.
Definately tactical/Patrol.
Armor does help i shot this kid twice in the chest wit a sniper then he came round corner and shot him agn and he still didnt die and i was hittintg him and watching this theatre mode
my whole guy looks tactical >.< Muhahahahaha!!!! Tactical/Recon for my chest =3
armor dont help at all, i think what happens is you hit an armor piece that isn’t normally there at an angle that doesn’t contact hit boxes, the result is you see shields flar but no damage actually is taken by enemy
187 you were hitting a hologram.
This list doesn’t have the UA/Multi-threat chestplate that people were awarded at gamestop when they pre-ordered.
The helmet section didn’t include the Recon/HUL[3]
that everyone was awarded when you preordered Halo Reach or went any store and bought halo reach on launch day.
The armor effects section didn’t include the legendary armor effect for anyone who got legendary edition.
This Place seriously needs to revise their armor sections
yup bungie even said there will be no effect from changing armour regarding hitboxes
i’m suprised no one has noticed this is incomplete. there are at least 2 of the robot arm variants missing that i have seen in game offline. the Sapper is one, but the breacher pretty much everyone thats reach LT. Colonel online has at least seen, and i know for a fact the parafoil has an R variant. be mo complete pl0x
daedalus!?
187 know your’e making that up or it’s lag ahck or glitch remember it’s the beta there’s gonna be errors.
Missing a couple of chest pieces like the Collar/Breacher R and the HP/Parafoil R. Thanks for putting this up though. Really nice reference, especially early on. =)
Personally, I like the HP/Parafoil
There’s a couple chest pieces missing on this list: Collar/Breacher [R], and Parafoil [R].
I kinda wish you could choose which arm to have as the “Robot Arm.”
You forgot Collar/Breacher R (robot arm)
but yeah i’m definitely going for Collar/Grenadier UA
There is armor missing. There are two (or even more) armor pieces. They have two that have the robot arm.
I’m a Colonel and have bought most of chest parts. You’ll unlock some with the robot arm as you buy the same (breacher gets breacher with arm).
which armor besides sapper r and breacher r have the robot arm
Assault/Sapper R hell yeah that one or the Collar/Grenadier UA
I’m luvin the UA/Base secuirity chest.How bout u?
robot arm (emiles) has 3 variants. this site only shows 1
collar/breacher r
hp/parafoil r 175000cR
and assualt/sapper r 250000cR
I think he missed HP/Parafoil [R] and Collar/Breacher [R]
They forgot the robot arm for Collar/Breacher and for the HP/Parafoil. People are not aware that there is a robotic arm for those chest pieces too. Plus, it just looks awesome!
At least Caleb knows what i’m talking about.
Could you add to them the unlock requirements and Cr costs? That’d be sweeeet! Pretty lame without them tbh.
how do u unlock the collar/grenaider (ua) ????????? im Lt. Colonel and still havnt seen it 4 purchase!?!?!?!
my guy is a o.d.s.t., his color is olive green has nothing on his helmet, his visor color is the default color,he has fj/para knee guards, his emblem is a single rose because thats my girlfriends name,and if u try to make cartar i wonder how he react when u have his exact armor, can also make kat how beast is that a robotic arm every thing even emile but i don’t know about the bent knife if that is possible to get emiles bent knife. lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol ha hahahahahhahahahahahah so cool ;()
you can get the bent knife my friend will loves emile i cant wait to tell him this is so beast he can meke his guy emile
you can get the bent knife my friend will loves emile i cant wait to tell him this is so beast he can make his guy emile
I think you get it at colonel. I’m not sure.
Now I am confused. It says the robot arm is with the Assault / Sapper, but I just got it today and it is with the Collar / Breacher?…
hey i have the collar/breach with a robot arm.
Assault/Sapper R for sure
What they are saying is that it will have the EVA effect. That is, it is easier to aim at. If someone was wearing the EVA helmet, what with the giant gold faceplate, you are much more prone to being headshot, as the big gold thing is easier to aim at than a regular helm.
You can’t be Emile because his right or left shouder is red but his primary and secondary colour is not red. I was going to be Emile but I realized that and I stopped. But Emile is still the best.
