The Flood are an ancient enemy, and long before our existence, the Forerunners were locked in a 10'000 year war with this ever-evolving enemy. Today, we take a look at the drones they created to combat the Flood in their final days...

I'll call big boi 'The Titan Sentinel'.
I'll call it *BIGMOM* xD
I actually dig that name, that sounds cool!
@@ninjamice3464 "That's one hell of a mama!"
Just call it Rape.
Considering what it does and the nomenclature of the other ones I would have gone for "Eradicator"
“The holy warriors! why have they sided with these heretics?”
Sentinels:Cause fuck you
Oh hey rtas
The diadact hello holy one
@@joepaddy7239 how ya doing
Shipmaster! Brute ships, staggered line! They outnumber us three to one!
The sentinals are demonitization symbols and flood is the monitization symbol
U have 117 likes!
?
And flood won.
Damn so TH-cam really needs a big ass space-ship sized robot to demonitize people? 😕
But it's more like the other way around. Demonetization is the real plague and parasite.
+HiddenXperia you forgot about the onyx sentinels they could combine together, adapt to the situation, and could easily destroy covenant ships.
Came to say this.
I hope your comment gets stickied and addressed in the description!
so basically self building legos?
meep deep More like lego’s that can build a planet on their own
Jeremy Knudsen Someone mentioned this on Twitter, so I’ll just use the same reply:
Didn't really wanna cover something that A) is fairly similar to something I already covered (Aggressors) and B) I don't have any imagery for, it makes the editing feel really cheap imo, which is why I tend to avoid it
"The Enforcer can tank multiple Scorpion shots"
**shows clip of enforcer getting two-shotted by a Scorpion**
On easy mode you can kill them in 2 shots... if they are being attacked from else where... in harder difficulties it increases to 4 8 16 shots
Vexile12 not the point
Well, multiple. It's more than 1 alright...
HiddenXperia's vocabulary: Iconic & Biomass
Ngl, hearing these words so much is actually starting to make me sick
But what about iconic biomass?
What about the word *FLOOD*
Yup
Mendicant Bias and the flood
Lets call that bad boy at the end The Liberator Sentinel
Liberator or Titan... Two cool ass names, I love em both!
Def. a person who liberates a person or place from imprisonment or oppression. A perfect last resort in response to a possible Interstellar stage.
Yes I agree, a Liberator / Titan Sentinel could be used against as a interstellar outbreak. They are possibly the last defense of the galaxy.
The Ragnarok Sentinel
HiddenXperia I agree with you man
So basically a drone with a flamethrower attached ?
Yep
A long range, focused flamethrower
also known as a sentinel beam :^)
Hi HiddenXperia
More like an Extremely concetrated flametrower
Rtas Vadumee Brother!
Personally, I always thought the sentinels way were too weak to be the Forrunners primary offense against the Flood, I always thought they were some security program designed at most to take care of small infections (especially because we only really see them go into "suicidal horde mode" in Halo Wars)
I was personally hoping to see a more proper military branch of the sentinels, with anti-flood, anti-personal, anti-ship, spec ops, and other more specialized variants with the Prometheans. But then I played Halo 4 and was a little disappointed that they just weird humans 😂.
I would still love to see a more fleshed out 'traditional' style Sentinel style military force
*LIBERTY PRIME ONLINE*
THE ULTIMATE FLOOD COUNTER
Your the reason I still make halo videos HiddenXpria
RED CHINESE BIOWEAPON INCURSION DETECTED. DETERMINING SOLUTION. DETERMINED. COURSE OF ACTION: DESTROY ALL COMMUNISTS.
BE GONE BOT
How you able to be every were?
need me a sentinel which does all my works while i sit on the sofa like a degenerate.
That's a great idea. I was hoping I'd see you talk about something from Halo serving you or the empire.
Or a engineer
Flood Outbreak Detected!
Threat Level: 10/10
*AUTOBOTS, ROLL OUT*
Enforcer sentinel : *FLOOD THREAT: DETECTED OUTBREAK STATUS: COORDINATOR*
flood can take over the autobots still because they are AI
My Dude, you also forgot about Sentinel battle formations and how they can construct newer entities.
Dr. Halsey in the book the [ghost of Onyx] about Midway through, compares the Sentinels to "Tinker Toys".
In which it is witnessed, as the more of them that combine together, the more forms they can take.
Although there is no visual representation of this, I feel it is worth noting since it is Sentinel related.
Thanks.
-A old lore master.
That’s a good point, and we do have a semi-visualisation of this from Origins, but it’s with the Dragoons which I was going to cover but I decided against it because they aren’t technically Sentinels
TheKillerPill l I’m pretty certain the formations only apply to the Onyx sentinels
@@TmanTheTdog Perhaps or maybe the story writers just haven't expanded upon it yet.
TheKillerPill l Well Ghosts of Onyx was pretty specific about how the Onyx Sentinels were *very* unique, and how no other sentinel type has been seen doing anything remotely like the Onyx Sentinels. In regards to this, if all Sentinels could do the formations, why would the Retriever Sentinel be necessary?
@@TmanTheTdog , I feel like there are thousands of undiscovered forerunner installations that may have these type of Sentinels.
Many of those installations haven't been found yet, this is just a known isolated incident for now.
In regards to the retriever Sentinel, it is more of a Strict Sentinel of combat and design
Rather than the Onyx Sentinels flexible and adaptable designs.
The reason why we don't see much of the Onyx Sentinels anymore I believe is because of new story Management[343]. Also perhaps regular signals would be too powerful if they could just combine enough and overwhelm opponents.
Anyhow, hope this helps.
Sorry if this is a lot of conjuncture but the story writers of the current Halo franchise haven't flushed this out yet or have forgotten about it.
What was the purpose of the Requiem Sentinels as:
a) There were no flood there
b) The Prometheans could easily deal with any flood
Maintenance :)
Well they obviously have defensive protocols since they were attacking Covenant.
@@HiddenXperia that's what I thought after you mentioned it in the video
Probably just security
I've always wanted to see prometheans take on the flood, that would be a good fight to watch, maybe for infinite?
Or halo wars 3?
Theory: the Retriever Sentinel which attacked Earth (which is 500 meters) is already a mega-retriever sentinel, and the ones we see in HW2 are the base line ones. Retriever sentinels, like the Onyx Sentinels, can simply combine multiple times over.
Holy shit.. that actually seems accurate
So about that last sentinel, there's a mod for a game called sins of a sollar empire which is a total halo conversion mod called Sins of the Prophets. That giant sentinel appears at portals which can be used to jump around the current system you're in and well, let's just say it can 1 shot anything that isn't a capital ship.
I’ll never understand how the grave mind got so big on Delta Halo without having any bio mass to consume
Probably it was already of that size when he was imprisoned in delta halo
We never got to see this in the games, but there were supposed to be animals stored on the rings in self-sustaining ecosystems. According to the lore, the flood used this biomass to make their Gravemind.
JHONNO il meme perduto why would they imprison him on there😂
@@SoldiersDoingThings try to replicate the cure created by Ancient humanity? (althought is revealed that there wasn't any cure the flood simply ignored the humans because they wanted to kill only the forerunners wich unfortunately for them they didn't know that)
@@mj91212 i remember that one halo ce demo that had some weird looking wild life kinda but i was a kid
Whoa, whoa, whoa... What about the Sentinels that made up the Entirety of the planet Onyx?
They are basically aggressor sentinels only a little bigger.
@@eragonbromsson1122 Well yeah, I know that. But it's the fact they made up the entirety of the planet.
That's a big "WTF" moment in the book.
Taylor Stratford I agree. I was disappointed he didn't mention them here. And Ghosts of Onyx is an amazing book.
I still hate that.
Worst thing to ever come out of a book.
Nicholas Eitenmiller Worst thing? What about Rookie's death? That's the worst thing from the books, new or old.
I've been watching alot of your stuff just today, the worst things oni has done, scariest storys of flood, the elite design and how the old classic design should come back as well as classic forerunner [Seriously, Epitaph is a fucking beautiful map.] Subscribed!
Ayyy thanks man! Glad you’re enjoying my stuff :D
The final Sentinal you covered was surrounded by Retriever Sentinals, and they seemed like a bug to it, so i’m assuming this thing is *H U G E* and the fact it’s beam can be seen from space, with a massive explosion, we can assume this is a beast.
Thanks for doing a video like this ma boi! I was always confused about Sentinals, glad I can count on my local Hidden Xperia ;)
4:22 Dies in two hits
Ill call that big ass sentinel: "Big Bertha sentinel"
For naming that big boy Sentinel at the end, i think following the naming convention of the other Sentinels would help.
You have the Aggressor, the Enforcer, Assembler, Retriever, etc. So, considering this Sentinel's role as a large-scale war machine, and having a name that ends in "er/or", i think something like Eradicator would work nicely.
You should do a video on how many Spartan lls are left
Not enough
That's the answer
I love your content keep up the amazing work
Quinn Rothwell I agree
Dude your videos are amazing you put so much work and effort into your content and I love watching them
The golden Sentinels found in Halo 2 are called “Sentinel Eliminators”, a variant of the Aggressor Sentinels.
Do you think that we'll see Enforcer Sentinels in Infinite, also do you think that we'll see monitor 117649 on Installation 07
I really really hope we see Enforcers back, I'd love to think that's the thing we saw in the water in the trailer but we can't know for sure. As for 117649 I don't remember *exactly* but I'm pretty sure Tragic Solitude mentions something about it going missing in Hunters in the Dark, I might be wrong though, been like 3 years since I read the book lol
@@HiddenXperia ok, I haven't read Hunters In The Dark, all I knew was that, like other monitors, he wasn't found by Humanity. Also if we do I hope there's an IWHBYD Skull easter egg where the monitor is introduced as 117649 Fucking Lightbulb as a reference to the Halo 2 Developers Commentary
Jedi Spartan ok, what is that? When did we ever meet #117649?
@@thejamman4070 monitor of Installation 07
Jedi Spartan I really need to catch up on my lore.
Looks great! Can’t wait for ur next vid
Man it always puts a smile on my face every time you make a new video! Keep up the good work
Great video. Very interesting! Keep up the good work!
The enforcer sentinel is awesome I never even knew it could crush vechiles with it’s arms😄😄😄😄😎😎😎😎😊👍🏻!!!
Zacimus the master Shooter too young aren't you? 👏😂
@Angel Alvarado vro that fucker always grabbed me in the damn warthog
The gold ones are called Sentinel Majors, but are a type of Aggressor
You should have spoke of the protectors and gatherers
Good video, I never really thought about how many types there are on the lore
in Halo 2 the Sentinels with the gold armor were called Sentinel Majors, if it was mentioned in games i forget but its mentioned in the in game files i believe. the weapon was also referred to as the super sentinel beam even though picking it up only says sentinel beam.
Thanks for still coming out with the videos. I know its hard lately, seeing as there's a massive Halo content drought at the moment.
he says the retriever is bad at fighting as it obliterates everything
I always thought that last one was a forerunner ship but lookin at it now I see the similarities to the other sentinels. I loved this video btw
Great video, keep it up👌
PS if you have trouble finding halo topics for your videos, I have an idea for a new lore series you could do. I think it would be cool if you explained the lore behind the different enemy ranks, for example grunt ranks, elite ranks, etc. Thank you for reading
Wow i can't believe it, but i have newfound respect for our flying bois
I think you missed out the Onyx sentinels
awesome video as always!:)
1:53 I never noticed the gold ones before, I just thought that blue beams were assigned randomly
Nice vid bud.
thanks friendo :)
@@HiddenXperia np
Hey mutilated Lamborghini reventon
I think in the interest of the naming scheme of the Sentinels, seeing as we saw that last big sentinel rise from the city, I’d presume it’s some type of last-line-of-defense type of thing, so i like “Warden Sentinel” or “Guardian Sentinel” (tho I suppose Guardian Sentinel could be confusing with Forerunner Guardians...)
Good video as always!
i really hope we see the flood and oldschool forerunner architecture and robots again, i loved them
You should make a crossover video like what you did with the dead space necromorphs about the flood versus the destiny hive
Hey, idea for a video, did the UNSC have a contingency plan for losing the War?
The Infinity, save what's left & bolt. That was the original plan before it was repurpose.
losing the war was extinction
I just wanna say I love ur channel
Keep em comin Hiddenxperia!!!
*really good vid
Honestly, Halo Legends has the peak “Forerunners at their prime” aesthetic
Another home run of a video! The streak hasn't stopped and maybe never will!
Wonderful specimen
So the flod won over things litterly desgaind to kill them
I guess so
While forerunner tech was very effective, once the flood was big enough to infect it with the logic plague, sentinels became a lot less useful to have. This was the entire reason for the (late) development if the Prometheans who were theoretically better protected from the logic plague
Logic plague and improving flood tactics began to outpace the sentinels. Prometheans were designed to be both immune to logic plague and infection since they were both organic and inorganic. At the same time each individual unit was faster and smarter than sentinels
So locicplauag.sorry cant spell. First take over all bio shit then thats not good they need more so they go for AI. Damm they are op
Jessa Milia I thought the Prometheans were the Didact’s solution to fighting the flood in which the Librarian didn’t approve of since it needed humans to grow the army? And my answer to the original question is that although the Forunners had all these sentinel types, the flood became too strong during the forunner-flood war, in ways which have never been shown ingame and stronger than we could imagine. We only were given a peek at their strongest point in Halo Legends Origins when they were assimilating Forunner structures, AI, and already had ungodly amounts of biomass not to mention growing even more after touching down on that Forunner planet. Overall the sentinels still exist for any new flood outbreak, at least they aren’t at the strength they were before the Halos originally fired. Still, it is strange to see that even the minor outbreaks that we’ve played through in the Halo games (Minor compared to the Major outbreak in legends, so it shouldn’t be taken lightly either), the sentinels still cannot combat against it.
Origins part 1 sentinel: "The Annihilator Sentinel"
*Flood Biomass detected, recommended course of action: ANNIHILATION*
Man, your videos are so interesting
What's this gracing my notification screen? A new HiddnXperia video?
What about the sentinels on the shield world onyx from the books?
Why didn't you mention Onyx Sentinels
@Big Fish but weren't just regular sentinel just improved

Hunters in the Dark which is my fave book really made Retrievers sound menacing and devastating
Been waiting for this one
Question: is their a Sentinel variant that destroys the "Parasite" that is my Math Homework? Because I can really use one of those right now lol! 😂😂😂😂😂 But this video was super amazing! My favorite Sentinel variant would have to be the Retriever. It's so large and is really cool! I hope we see it in a main line Halo game someday!!!! :)
Hey there! And yeah, there should be a Sentinel designed to destroy the Homework lol
@@crustypaladin Hey! And yeah, I quite agree! 😂😂😂
I think its called a calculator.
This is the gayest comment i hav ever read
When you realize, an Anime was more truthful to the original art style than 343
343 BAD BUNGIE GOOD
Reddit moment
"Able to tank multiple scorpian shots" Shows the enforcer dying to one shot.
I'm happy to hear I'm not the only one who thought they were called sentinel captains-
Great vid btw
What about protectors?! From the first halo wars too!!!
do you think there will be a halo wars 3?
Kinda sucks, it was planned to have space battles..... RIP Dreams of trying to recreate the invasion of earth
@DarkStarEthan hopefully they do eventually green lit the pitch, I think the community would really like the idea of space battles, especially the pc community
Apparently the sales for Halo Wars 2 weren't great so they're not making another one
@DarkStarEthan Sounds believable to me lol
Maybe a long time in the future, but I highly doubt it’s happening any time soon. Maybe Blizzard’s renewed attempt at getting RTS games back to the top in esports could help spur on HW3 if successful but I’m not hopeful
Installation 08 was 04's replacement. So technically it's 04-B
Awesome video
Wait...so the Prometheuns were the ones who created the sentinels right?
Adil I think the sentinels are Builder tech. The Prometheans preferred to kill things themselves.
It was the forerunners who created the Sentinels, and I'm pretty sure they also created the prometheans
70MrKitty prometheans where the highest rank members of the warrior servant caste of the forerunners... the survivors where turned into robits
@@tech-priesttoast2686 only halo 1-3 are lore
Is it just me or do you guys also say suicide like the halo dude says when the elite sticks the swords in his neck
Great video HiddenXperria
Imagine a Flood Containment game, where you play as a monitor on an installation that had a containment breach, and it's your job to try and stem the flood outbreak.
Who is a true fan?
Fan since one mill subs
I am.
I remember in one of the halo books there was a type of sentinel that did melee combat. It was smaller than other sentinels and is slit a scientists throat. There was only one of them though. I forget which book, but it was one where humanity went back to the arc.
That last one looked like a super high tech Mac cannon
I love that one sentinel in halo three that pinched its pincers like a crab. LOL
*Sees a Enforcer off in the distance,as it gets closer you are baffled to hear Genesong from absolutely nowhere.*
10:35 personally im guessing its probably a mix between a orbital lazer cannon and just an average sentinel, in other words its probably a self-controlled big dramatic OP gun that moves like an oversized drone
Finally a question answered , ive been guessing what dropped out of the sky in halo 2 on the flood level.
It is a airborne sentinel factory.
Great channel
1:02 Holy god that'd be an awesome plot device. Board a sentinel factory, have a smaller mission there, while you travel to another part of the ring on it.
The gold version is called a sentinel captain in one of those old guide books for halo 2, said book has a lot of errors like that.
Those sentinels are amazing
A video from your channel is the perfect example of 'diamond in the rough' i get so many shitty emails and spam, so seeing one of your videos in my notifications makes a nice change 😂😂
Imagine sending only a small force to defeat a potentially world ending threat and only sending the big guns when it starts to get out of control
I want to call the big destroyer sentinels Eradicators.
BEST CHANNEL EVER
Assuming that those little bois surrounding the big boi are Retrievers, given the semblance... well, that certainly is one big boi.
You should have covered the sentinels at Onyx. I personally thought they were very unique in the novels and were certainly worth a mention in this video.
Nice intro hiddenxperia
ICONIC
In Sins of the Prophets, there is a sentinel model that reaembles the "big boy" at the end.
They call it a "Vanguard" in the mod ^_^
I would love to see a Sentinel that's designed to cleanse an entire planet- just a massive drone with an enormous f**k-off laser big enough to take out a planet-wide outbreak of Flood. That makes for an interesting mental picture.
How much you wanna bet there are many other types of Sentinels that we've yet to see. Like a medical sentinel, an observer sentinel, a miner sentinel, a sentinel spy, etc.
In HW2 you can summon the protector sentinel if you play as anders in skirmish there is there argument that it is't cannon however if multiplayer was cannon in halo 4 with war games surely skimish must be cannon too mabey it's used to train new commanders on UNSC ships just a thought (sorry if I miss-spelt anything) :) love the content
Sentinels out right are my top most favorite enemies/machines in the halo universe, on my opinion there design, capabilities, types, and weapons makes them badass
That last sentinal vs a Banished Scarab, that would be an interesting fight....
Silent Marauder Ok lets be real here that last sentinel would win so long as it got a shot off
