Enjoy the vid fellas! Quite an interesting and simultaneously spooky one if you ask me - being plagued by persistent nightmares of the Flood and believing the Arbiter and Rtas formed a pact with the Gravemind to infect the Covenant is uhhh... Quite something...
My question: why did the Prophets actually try to fire the rings while they were in range, and why did truth try to use the ark, knowing it would leave him nothing to rule?
Pls talk about the Prophet Zo Resken, he allied with the Elites during the Great Schism and fully knew that the Great Journey was a lie, he is known as the only "good" Prophet.
@@tallonmetroids271 Yes he was. He sacrificed a Forerunner relic to save a female San'shyuum. And he loved his wife so much, he faked documents that he wasn't on the Roll of Celibates ( a list of San'shyuum who weren't allowed to have children ) , while in truth, he was on the list. Also, he knew that the Ussans survived but he didn't tell anyone because he respected them. His name was Mken 'Scre'ah'ben, the Prophet of Inner Conviction.
Imagine all the augmentations that the pelates had, but then take an already strong race, say an elite or brute, and give them those augmentations. I feel like an augmented elite would be able to go toe to toe with the chief, considering the times in the lore that the chief was nearly killed by unaugmented members of both species.
Horatio Nelson oh I know why the prophets only gave the augments to there own kind, but I’m just imagining the possibilities here. Considering how atriox manhandled 3 Spartans by himself without augments(besides the giant metal arm of his) I can see him destroying entire squads of Spartans quite easily with augments.
I can easily imagine prelates in a halo game functioning like the marauders from doom eternal. Could you imagine how cool it would have been to have fought a prelate before reaching regret in halo 2 knowing that its the same species as old frail grampa regret?
Justin Nyugen Skirmishers, Engineers, Drones, I want em all back. I mean fuck all those Promethean enemies. Been a Halo fan since 08 and I can’t even remember the names of those ones
nickyar honestly, I don’t mind the prometheans that much. Engineers? I wouldn’t really classify them as covenant, they’re basically forerunner constructs that were enslaved, skirmishers? I’d like to see them back, same with the drones.
My man yes but instead of waiting for an attack to cause an opening you can use a plasma pistol as well to stun the prelate for a short time while you gun him down and hell move around and dash how the marauders do but will focus more on gunning you down in mid range while slicing at close with hardlight blades so you either gotta stun with a plasma pistol or deal enough damage to the hardlight shield to break it causing him to inject a chemical causing him to go berserk and go full two hardlight sword rush on your ass
Noah Fleming it would be interesting to see them in infinite. But a more forerunner-y version, since the banished sure as hell never had prophets in their ranks
@Noah Fleming It would be interesting if they served as his Shadow Hands. An elite circle of killers without thought. They only respond to Atriox and Atriox alone.
These guys are the true Covenant Spartans. Someone once made a video called "THE COVENANT VERSIONS OF SPARTANS!!! *LETHAL* !!!" And they were just talking about Elite Fleet admirals, which are just incredibly highly decorated military commanders, not supersoldiers. These Prelates on the other hand, they have been highly trained, highly modified, and can be properly classified as the true Covenant Spartans!
Well, while Elite Fleet admirals aren't supersoldiers, those who became worthy of those ranks were so skilled and genetically gifted that they might as well have been. For example, the Imperial Admiral of the Covenant, who held the highest military rank possible in the Covenant fleet, was a whopping 11 ft tall elite. He was bigger than most brutes, and physically stronger and faster than a lot of them too. He had also never lost a fight. Until a nuke took out his ship. But yeah, being very skilled and genetically gifted isn't the same as a supersoldier.
@t rr Nah. It wouldn't make sense if it did. Do u know more about that 11ft tall Elite? I'd like to know more about this guy and wonder if he'd be able to beat Master Chief or the Arbiter. xD
My theory on why the Prelates weren't in game is that they were fighting elsewhere on High Charity. That said it'd be awesome to have seen some Prelates defending Truth in Halo 3
Imagine if Halo 3 Anniversary gave us Grunts and Hunters as friendly allies alongside the Elites, and the the enemy Covenant Loyalists would have Skirmishers fighting alongside the Jackals, Brutes and Drones. And the Prelates would replace the Hunters on the enemy faction. Also in the Covenant mission, where you are fighting against the Brutes in the Citadel, the Brutes are replaced by Prelates. Also imagine if 343 gets Michael Wincott to reprise his role as The High Prophet of Truth in Halo 3 Anniversary.
I always imagined the prophets were like the people on the axiom from wall-e who cant walk at all. In all seriousness, this really was a sad story. Probably more tragic than rise of skywalker
Its videos like these that make me realize I’m such a sap for halo lore. As soon as I see it pop up in my feed I instantly I get super excited and click it as fast as I can.
Even if the brutes recieved full naval training, it would be still near impossible to beat Elite Shipmasters due to 2 reasons. 1) The Elites have centuries of Naval experience as fleet commanders, something training cant give. 2)Elites are much more calable of thinking outside the box i.e Shipmaster Rtas Vadum and the Arbiter during his Supreme Commander days. So it would be very difficult to destroy an Elite Fleet even if the Brutes had a number advantage.
They should have made Shadow of Intent a spin-off game, it was really interesting. I miss Rtas 'Vadam....plus if anyone deserves a spinoff game, its him.
As the prelate and half jaw both exchange words the faintness of the halo 3 paino theme plays only getting louder as the ring slowly explodes. "Were it so easy"
There are so many amazing things in all your videos and clearly show in this one! Where could I start? 1) Lore. I have watched many Halo youtubers and your are by far my favourite. You cover so many stories, so interesting lore that I could not find anywhere else. Awesome. 2) Video. I love the way you edit the videos so that it actually seems like we are having real footage from the story you are telling. The way you can mix the few scenes available and complement with gameplay or artwork... Wow. Such a great talent. 3) The language. I am a fan of language in general. It is absolutely enjoyable to listen to your writing, the way you tell the story, the intonation you use and the words, that nice vocabulary that makes the difference between an OK story and an inmersive tale. 4) Probably the last one could be the lenght. I am not a big fan of long videos, but with yours time passes by incredibly quickly. Thanks for this great video!
It’s funny you mention this because during the video I realized how good he is with telling stories. He makes me feel totally immersed in the video, if he’s reading from a script then I’d say good job it’s sounds natural and the flow, intonation and everything great.
I have a very strong feeling that the Harbinger of the Truth in Halo Infinite is a Prelate! We shall see come this Wednesday when Infinite is released. 😌
This story really was ... touching. I had heard about the prelots, but I didn't know about Tel's story. Very well written, to say the least. Amazing vid bro 👌
I always imagined the hierarchs secretly formed a joint covert spec ops/hit squad with the sole purpose of hunting down Spartans. Recruiting the deadliest warriors from each covenant race turning them into their own supersoldiers: a brute warlord, a jackal sniper, a grunt demo specialist, a former zealot swordmaster or a silent shadow stealthmaster, veteran pair of hunters like colony in hw2, even an arbiter leading them. A prelate would be a nice addition. They would serve as boss fights too if you ever encountered them in the games.
"We've created some super soldiers who can counter the demons in combat." "Great! So we're going to put them on the front lines of our most important battles, right?"
I love how the human Spartans have become such a legendary threat to the Covenant that they have to put tremendous effort in to possibly countering the Spartans. And still Spartans keep getting more deadly as they continue on.
Rtas 'Vadum honestly is the coolest character from halo. Maybe even one of my favourite characters from any story/game/book/movie! I want a game based on him!
Making the Prelates rivals to the Spartans is fitting and ironic since they are the closest thing to the old San Shyuum who formed a formidable alliance with old humanity, which the Spartans themselves resemble
You forgot about Dhas 'Bhasvod, the prelate stationed on the Ark during Halo Wars 2 and Troy Denning's "Divine Wind". Now, I don't know if those titles came out when the video was posted, but Dhas was a very different case than the "last living prelate" listed in the video. He firmly believed in the Covenant, and by extension, the Prophets were still alive, and even had classified proof of it.
when I think of prophets in battle ive always envision them contained within floating Armored capsules of familiar covenant design. Armed with an array of two to three weapon types that are used in different combat scenarios they would fight similar to how regret did in halo 2. Would be cool to see one day, like i could imagine it in game as a heavy unit; you destroy it and then out of the capsules rubble comes a very agile prelate.
No the prelates have more similarities with the spartans since both have genetical modifications and have the most advanced technology that the covenat or unsc can give them respectively. The elites in the other hand only a few can deal with a spartan and many them were killed by normal humans.
dragon leo It will never make sense to me that a marine and kill and elite. Elites are like 2x their height with shields, armour, strength, and a flesh burning rifle.
Oh, good, San'Shyuum that didn't follow the human curse from WALL-E. That aside, they sure are pretty darn awesome and equally underused... and boy, do I love hearing about sympathetic San'Shyuum like 'Bhetek and the 'Reskens. Edit: I also hope there'll be a video about surprisingly bada** Grunts like Stolt.
Now that I think about it, Halo's lore did not have to be this deep and interesting but it really is. Probably my favorite fictional universe and I love quite a few.
Love the video keep up the good work, also I've been thinking what if they made a game where you play as the forerunners during the end of the forerunner flood war and witness the firing of the rings or events leading up to that.personally I think that would be awesome.
Jesus man I want a freaking halo open universe rpg, that type of game would sell like hotcakes man, imagine being able to pick a race to be in-game, even the super rare ones and living their stories or a mmo rpg being able to play legendary battles from halo lore and books or surviving a flood infested city you have to escape I mean there is just so much potential for halo but 343 just doesn't try to use halo to it's full.... idk maybe this next halo game will be everything we ever dreamed of, maybe I can get some people on ps4 to make some of these games in dreams
"The prophets of vile lies" has a nice ring to it. I'd like to see ex-covenant use it as a name for the high prophets, because these shows that not all of the "prophet" species are bend on galactic destruction
We need more lore on prelates. We just don't know much on them. Were they ever deployed on the field? How many in numbers were there and how effective would they have been against Spartans?
maybe the prelets son being born augmented became a core mind in a growing gravemind and was contacting his father in his dreams with that neural physics you mentioned in thevideo when gravemind "killed" master chief
What is it like, to lose your family not just once in real life, but multiple times in your dreams? And then, to be told that you left them to a fate far worse than death?
This is actually sad asf fuck:( it’s depressing thinking that you basically let your family die to the flood without even knowing it, like your family wondering when you’re gona come to save the day, but you don’t.. and they lose their lives because of one lie
I love your lore vids brother. I am not much for sitting down with a book and digging in for a long read, especially with e-books....as if I'm not staring at a device screen enough hours per day as it is. You've really helped expand my knowledge of the canonical story which had led to my developing greater interest in the stories outside of the games. It definitely adds another layer of depth to have a lot more of the backstory filled in. Perhaps I should try the Audiobook format, I hear it works out nicely to listen to lore books while grinding away gaining at halo 2 Laso. I found some XBOne app which claims that it loads/plays a list of audio files from the root of a USB drive. I've only launched the app once and it told me that nothing can be done or configured unless there exists a USB disk drive. Maybe some app like this would play the audiobooks in the background.......or just get a bluetooth speaker and play it from a smartphone.......IF ya wanna be lazy like that.
Enjoy the vid fellas! Quite an interesting and simultaneously spooky one if you ask me - being plagued by persistent nightmares of the Flood and believing the Arbiter and Rtas formed a pact with the Gravemind to infect the Covenant is uhhh... Quite something...
THANK YOU! I've always wanted someone to cover these ancient warrior san-shyum in greater detail

A augmented and intelligent brute would be nigh impossible to beat. Imagine Atriox but with prelate like augments.
@@punctuationman334 thats just straight up unfair

You should make a video explaining the timeline of halo from beginning to where we are now in the current time period
Thanks so much for making such great content! Please, please, keep making great videos!
What is it like, to lose your family not just once in real life, but multiple times in your dreams? And then, to be told that you left them to a fate far worse than death?
This is actually sad asf fuck:( it’s depressing thinking that you basically let your family die to the flood without even knowing it, like your family wondering when you’re gona come to save the day, but you don’t.. and they lose their lives because of one lie
Man, I wish we fought a Prelate during Halo 2
This is iconic
That was a brilliant narrative! Definitely going to get the books.
Who would win?
An heavily augmented prophet that could hold his own against Spartans and Elites.
Or
One courageous Grunt.
Did this mans just really dream himself the layout of the ship
Fans can try and convince that writer who wrote this Super Soldier Prophet to make fan fics.
Love you and your work man.
THIS is the lore 343 needs to bring into the fucking game
I love your lore vids brother. I am not much for sitting down with a book and digging in for a long read, especially with e-books....as if I'm not staring at a device screen enough hours per day as it is. You've really helped expand my knowledge of the canonical story which had led to my developing greater interest in the stories outside of the games. It definitely adds another layer of depth to have a lot more of the backstory filled in. Perhaps I should try the Audiobook format, I hear it works out nicely to listen to lore books while grinding away gaining at halo 2 Laso. I found some XBOne app which claims that it loads/plays a list of audio files from the root of a USB drive. I've only launched the app once and it told me that nothing can be done or configured unless there exists a USB disk drive. Maybe some app like this would play the audiobooks in the background.......or just get a bluetooth speaker and play it from a smartphone.......IF ya wanna be lazy like that.
I’m very curious about how the prophets get down on the dance floor when they can’t even walk, prophets getting funky video when?
I've been waiting for this video for a long time
Can we get a video on our boi Grunt Norris him self Stolt.
