I do actually like Mjolnir Gen 2. It seems lighter, easy to mass produce, more customization, and more durable then the older ones. I remember I thought of ideas for Experimental Mjolnir suits. Like after watching the Lore Core video of Nanosuit 2 from Crysis, I remembered one time I thought of this idea of an Experimental Mjolnir suit that has similar abilities and features of that of Nanosuit 2. Like the Armor mode, Stealth mode etc etc. Though I know something like that would never happen, but would be cool. Mainly it would never work because it would be too expensive, the tech is too experimental, and there is no way it would actually work.
I don't see why you couldn't make a nano suit type mjolnir suit, it would have to involve armor abilities though, contrary to the games the we see in the comic that Gen 2 can use multiple armor abilities at once (at least 3). So for stealth it could just be active camo AA, for armor mode it would be the overshield AA, and for speed technically you could have the sprint AA. And boom a nanosuit inspired mjolnir suit.

lack of dense armour in that region is because of mobility, the hip and lower torso sees alot of dynamic movement and as such theres less restrictions on that area. lots of armour varients have solid plating in that area regardless.
Lots of body armour nowadays only covers the lower extremities of the lungs, up to the top, and the sides below the armpits. It's mostly a weight and flexibility issue. Depends on what you need for the mission. A bomb suit, while protecting your whole entire body, is an incredibly stupid choice for any combat job other than bomb defusing.
I like almost everything about the Gen 2 mjolnir Spartan armor, and while I am not much of an expert in armor tech, I could see this becoming possible in the future. Not the near future obviously. The only thing I don't like is the armor design, with some exceptions, such as all of Blue Teams armor.
it's incredible why no one in the UNSC ever thought about equipping Mjoulnir armor with in built weapons (like wrist mounted energy blades, wrist mounted plasma guns and a shoulder mounted rocket launcher) and more thrusters distributed all over the body for better manuverability in outer space.
Hmm... working with an AI on board for calculations, and the suit connecting to orbital, sub orbital cameras on ships, etc. Yeah,sure i think its entirely possible, but for the ammunition buning up in outer atmosphere. Which.probably can be overcome with specialised ammo designed from high temp resistant materials for this purpose. Uncertain of reentry affect on velocity. Would perhaps need to be a smart mini rocket as opposed to a bullet, or rail gun slug...
Some of the gen 2 armor Is good, though you almost always have to have armor combos, like the air assault helmet variants, and soldier armor variants are good together
My favourite variants in order are. Mjolnir gen 2 MK 4 variant "You gotta love the classics." Mjolnir gen 2 achillies variant. "If your gonna be a spartan you may as well look like one." Mjolnir gen 2 hunter variant. "Let's go hunting."
Hazop was my favorite helmet in Halo Reach, just something about it looked so cool to me. Then when Halo 4 came out and they told me it had hazop I was very excited, until I booted up the game and saw it. What did they do to my boy?
Where is some of the footage like the Spartans playing with the armor abilities from? And the team with matching blue paint? I'd love to watch those on their own, all the way through.
when halo infinite comes out i think an interesting idea would be to make armor types actually effect play abilities. like someone wearing air assault can jump higher and jetpacks last longer. the warrior armor gives you a bit more ho once your shields are down. the recruit armor would just be standard. it would make plays select armor based on what they wanna do and less on how they wanna look because the how they wanna look route falls into EA type money grab schemes while playstyle differences are closer to devs. i think actually having minuet gameplay differences between the armor would actually make all this lore worthwhile and make players care about customization even more
Maybe, remember Cortana or whatever AI he has after her generally calibrates suit to his specs. The Armor I saw in clip looks like old armor still. That said you might get a 30% boost in strength output. If Chief alone was making Gen 1 armor move. Then have that strength amplifies would likely exceed safety limits of suit for Gen 2
They went cheap on the paint? Wouldn't it have been better to use similar paint as to what was on the Gen....3 or 4 armor which didn't have shields. That paint basically acted like ablative armor from Star Trek which helped dissipat the heat and energy from attacks, didn't it? I'm thinking of this from the book The Fall of Reach.
I'm still curious how they sandwich all that crap into that silhouette. Like holy shit. Is the power source almost microscopic? Unreal. I had a hard time believing Gen 1 could survive a fall from orbit. Gen 2 definitely couldn't.
There are 3 design changes that *really* make the armor look odd. The scaley, multi-toned undersuit, the (arguably unnecessarily) high polygon count, and the lack of codpieces really make the armor look different.
@@GreatfulGert The coloured undersuit is just dumb. It should have remained black. As for the unnecessary polygons there's nothing except to completely throw out that art style that will.fix that. The codpiece... functionally it could go either way. But since the codpiece was originally plated it should remain that way.
I feel like the unsc has been heading for more generic suits and augments, instead of a heavy assault armor with an enhanced augmented spartan for absolute destruction
Under normal circumstances if it took 11 minutes to get to the point, I would’ve left already . But not here. Not with this topic. I appreciate the care and detail, and the preamble.
Man this is awesome up to the tactical packages. There simply is no lore that could justify most of those. Why limit Spartans in such random ways unless they get that pack? Man this kind of stuff really pisses me off in H5 lore.
This is why video games are the worst form of science fiction storytelling. Because gaming is the only storytelling medium where there's a design need that's not subservient to the needs of the story. This is, of course, gameplay.
Ok I’m confused on one thing, can all Mjolnir components be downgraded for custom use by other military branches or just only Spartans, and do all Spartans change suits for mission requirements or just some and others keep what works for them best?
Idk if anyone mentioned this yet, but a lot of armor configurations (not including the alternative universe suits from Infinite) feature tidbits of lore that I would love to hear you extrapolate upon. For example, how would certain military operations where Spartans are involved lead to a decision in which modifications would be made to forearm armor plating and configuration? I would adore hearing your input on these.
I was really interested in the armour variants. There are several aspects of a set of GEN-2 mjolnir armour, and different variants excel in different aspects to better suit the role of the armour. Two things confuse me however: 1: why are there like three or four variants for the SAME TASK!? I'm pretty sure I heard three different variations for aerospace combat. 2:Olive is for hiding hair. Literally anyone with a helmet can do that.
According to halopedia, the gen 2 is made from a ceramic metal alloy. And I believe that they are referring to cermet(ceramic and metal) which is what current body armour is made of like boron carbide and silicon carbide. So maybe they are using cermet reinforced cermet for the gen 2 armour bc it will then have better protection against planes based weapons which I believe was the goal for gen 2 armour
Is it ironic that I was looking for this video last night on your channel since you mentioned it in one of your other videos? And damn near a whole hour of 00 doing a breakdown? My Birthday isn't for another 17 days!
Oh boy, 00 breaking down some 343 era tech, can’t wait to hear how it’s a downgrade/s joking aside, you are the legend when it comes to halo lore, so i’ll trust whatever conclusion you come to
As much as i dislike the 4s, the gen 2 puts them on par with the old variants of gen 1. Mk. VI of gen 1 is superior over the gen 2 suit for a spartan II as that 5x multiplier for just strength is better than the restrictive hard cap of the synthetic muscles in the case of the IIs and the armor is just more durable as shown in halo first strike, 3, and 4, surviving high atmosphere and orbital falls with the user alive. That half ton weight and hydrostatic gel counts for something. But yeah the gen 2 armor is good for what it is tbh. Being on par with Mk V of gen 1(outside of that durability) while being cheaper and lighter isnt a small feat.
@@tavianarmstrong974 You do know that the "restrictive hard cap" is only a theory right? Not really cannon info. Gen 2 also comes in a variety of weights some can be lighter like chief suit is only around 120 kg but someone like buck's armor weighs 500kg , Fred's armor also weighs more than chiefs at 470kg. And I also don't think gen2 is less durable, just less protective than gen 1 due to the more exploitable gaps in the armor. In terms of a shoot out it would offer greater durability due to the better shielding in comparison to Gen 1 counterparts.
@@lumpeistbark3 but it isnt a theory. The reason why it exists is because the armor no longer amplifies what the user does like gen 1's 2x for mk V under and 5x for mk VI over via that liquid crystal thing he mentions in his gen 1 breakdowns. I think of it as hydraulic fluid based on the wearer. The gen 2 armor is synthetic muscle which works with the wearer rather than amplifying meaning the hard cap does exist for IVs, the IIs may be higher due to a higher base but im guessing there as this is multiplicative vs additive. Shielding is definitely better. The protection shift i believe deals with a shift in *what* it protects from. The entire suit gives far superior energy protection compared to gen 1 as the armor to tech suit and undersuit all diffuse heat with the under and tech suits acting as kevlar with the armor acting like gen 1 plating but with a better refractive layer. Against human weapons the armor definitely pales to gen 1 but gen 2 holds equally as much over gen 1 in energy protection. That weight thing i guess is a fair point on your end. There is a noteworthy lack of mentioning the hydrostatic gel in gen 2 which confuses me considering it's why the gen 1 armor can do a high altitude fall without killing the user, i mean with the movement system that wont be a issue ever again but what about blunt trauma like getting splattered, ragdolled, or a zero g problem.
@@tavianarmstrong974 No , it's his theory of how gen 2 works you can even look it up on halo wikipedia or halo spartan field manual gen 2 uses ; "Force-multiplying circuits: Allows the user greatly enhanced reflexes and strength, improving mobility and combat effectiveness in close quarters. *Notwithstanding* *the* *lack* *of* *any* *truly* *understood* *limitations* , Spartans have been recorded lifting Warthogs, bending steel, and shattering concrete on the battlefield" This whole "Cap/limitations" theory is only people trying to basically downplay spartan IV and hype up the IIs. The *truth* of the matter is that we do not know why the fight between locke and cheif was as even as it was , we don't know if Spartans IIs gains the same strength boost as the IVs get but we do know they they get faster with gen 2 compared to gen 1 going by kelly recording her best speed in the suit and a sIII being capable of outpacing a warthog in gen 2 which no spartan in gen 1 could accomplish. And what proof of that due you have? In ghost of onxy chief and blue to were worried of .30 caliber ap rounds , Gen 2 as far as my knowledge was only pierced by standards human rounds on one occasion being in new blood where buck hit by a rifle where he statest the barrel can fit his entire(gauntlet) thumb into. The hydrostatic gel layer exsist still in Gen 2 but sense its not something new it's probably not talked about but in bad blood buck was going to experience a similar fall that chief did but he didn't know if he would survive or not, (although buck was constantly questioning himself and his capabilities all throughout the book so who knows what would have really happened)

Will you be doing a breakdown of the drop-dead gorgeous Gen 3 after Infinite comes out? I'd love to see that.
In terms of Gen 2, from a lore perspective it's really cool. It's just really, really hard to look at IMO lol.
Great video as allways m8, keep uo the awesome work!!🤙
I really like the hour video I usually listen to this channel while I'm working at work
Installation 00 new video on spartan armor, sorry dinner with family, you will wait. Where are my smokes and the out doors?
I wanted to watch this yesterday but didn’t have time but I’ll say it again you are the best halo TH-camr
42:16 It looks like either a green Mario with cat ears and a visor. XD
44:26 even better, it's a Timmy! The joke we give to bots online. XD
Thanks for the great content. I can’t begin to imagine the amount of research you put into your vids.
Gen2 platform: fancy tech but hardly any armor the hip and intestines
( And repetitive,ugly designs)
lack of dense armour in that region is because of mobility, the hip and lower torso sees alot of dynamic movement and as such theres less restrictions on that area.
lots of armour varients have solid plating in that area regardless.
Lots of body armour nowadays only covers the lower extremities of the lungs, up to the top, and the sides below the armpits. It's mostly a weight and flexibility issue.
Depends on what you need for the mission. A bomb suit, while protecting your whole entire body, is an incredibly stupid choice for any combat job other than bomb defusing.
Lack of armour plating is irrelevant since they relly on shields since even the plating gets damaged by plasma.
@@markss367 yeah but when shields are gone those plasma and needler round will rip through the soft armor and into the vital organs
@@spartana1116 isnt the undersuit made to disperse plasma, also the plating isnt much better.
I like almost everything about the Gen 2 mjolnir Spartan armor, and while I am not much of an expert in armor tech, I could see this becoming possible in the future. Not the near future obviously. The only thing I don't like is the armor design, with some exceptions, such as all of Blue Teams armor.
it's incredible why no one in the UNSC ever thought about equipping Mjoulnir armor with in built weapons (like wrist mounted energy blades, wrist mounted plasma guns and a shoulder mounted rocket launcher) and more thrusters distributed all over the body for better manuverability in outer space.
Simply amazing work, thank you.
Unpopular opinion; but GEN2 is my favorite version of the Mjolnir armor. 🙂
Okay hear me out. Lore Core most detailed breakdown video on Samus Aran's Power Suit
Your videos help me get through the day
So we're just not gonna talk about how he nailed that pronunciation...
Ok
Cool...
Has any Spartan ever Sniped from space orbit to on planet?
Don't think any have but it might be intersting to visualize
Does calling in a MAC strike count
Hmm... working with an AI on board for calculations, and the suit connecting to orbital, sub orbital cameras on ships, etc. Yeah,sure i think its entirely possible, but for the ammunition buning up in outer atmosphere. Which.probably can be overcome with specialised ammo designed from high temp resistant materials for this purpose. Uncertain of reentry affect on velocity. Would perhaps need to be a smart mini rocket as opposed to a bullet, or rail gun slug...
@@embersaffron5522 lol!
Would need to lead the fuck outta that shot.
Last time I was this early the precursors just turned themselves into space goo
Imagine having a 15 year power suit and stranded on an alien planet. What would do while hoping for rescue.
Do power suit things. Suit frequently, suit often, suit powerfully.
Great job on the whole video, I especially liked the description of each armor set
4:18
Damn dude no need to flex on us all that hard 😂
As always, excelent video. I hope you get a huge boost in subs when halo 6 come out, you deserve it.
4:19 I feel like you haven't reached the pinnacle of being a halo fan until you can fully and confidently pronounce this word
Some of the gen 2 armor Is good, though you almost always have to have armor combos, like the air assault helmet variants, and soldier armor variants are good together
My favourite variants in order are.
Mjolnir gen 2 MK 4 variant
"You gotta love the classics."
Mjolnir gen 2 achillies variant.
"If your gonna be a spartan you may as well look like one."
Mjolnir gen 2 hunter variant.
"Let's go hunting."
I like mk VI gen 2 also. But they ruined mk V with gen 2 sadly, except the helmet.
Hunter hell-jumper freebooter and mako are my fave armors
Best halo channel on youtube hands down
Hazop was my favorite helmet in Halo Reach, just something about it looked so cool to me. Then when Halo 4 came out and they told me it had hazop I was very excited, until I booted up the game and saw it. What did they do to my boy?
Right?!?!?
Where is some of the footage like the Spartans playing with the armor abilities from? And the team with matching blue paint? I'd love to watch those on their own, all the way through.
Halo 4's spartan ops, you can find the cutscenes on TH-cam
Ya know I didn’t know TH-cam started allowing pornography. Seeing a 50 minute I00 video about mjolnir armor should be a sexual vice
On lore core, could you look at project lazerus from mass effect 2?
Yes I can 😁
@@Installation00 Thanks!
Love these, keep them coming!
Wait, a rebreather? That can kill the Spartan after a long enough time.
when halo infinite comes out i think an interesting idea would be to make armor types actually effect play abilities. like someone wearing air assault can jump higher and jetpacks last longer. the warrior armor gives you a bit more ho once your shields are down. the recruit armor would just be standard. it would make plays select armor based on what they wanna do and less on how they wanna look because the how they wanna look route falls into EA type money grab schemes while playstyle differences are closer to devs. i think actually having minuet gameplay differences between the armor would actually make all this lore worthwhile and make players care about customization even more
I just had a thought what if Spartan 4's in MK 7 armor wear their gen 2 techsuits beneath the Mk 7 bodygloves?
So if the suit increases the strength of the wearer, then if John had been wearing it, Locke would've been taking a skinny dip in the lava below.
Maybe, remember Cortana or whatever AI he has after her generally calibrates suit to his specs. The Armor I saw in clip looks like old armor still. That said you might get a 30% boost in strength output. If Chief alone was making Gen 1 armor move. Then have that strength amplifies would likely exceed safety limits of suit for Gen 2
Damn, this changed my perspective for 343 armor, I love bungie's but this has so much juicy lore
They went cheap on the paint? Wouldn't it have been better to use similar paint as to what was on the Gen....3 or 4 armor which didn't have shields. That paint basically acted like ablative armor from Star Trek which helped dissipat the heat and energy from attacks, didn't it? I'm thinking of this from the book The Fall of Reach.
I don't think the refractive coating and the paint was the same thing.
If I ever get a super suit, imma kool-aid man through walls during every room breach I can.
4:18 HOW THE FUCK DID YOU MANAGE TO PRONOUNCE THAT?!??!?!
I'm still curious how they sandwich all that crap into that silhouette. Like holy shit. Is the power source almost microscopic? Unreal. I had a hard time believing Gen 1 could survive a fall from orbit. Gen 2 definitely couldn't.
I'm pretty confident that noble six wore gen 2 and he survived Jorge throwing him off the ship
The suit has internal dampeners and also locks up the user. Turning them into a meteor with a bad migraine after the nap.
Ah yes the power ranger suits designed to look as shitty as possible but having good tech. Just wish gen2 looked more traditional.
I dont mind some of them
Dubs step helmet XD
There are 3 design changes that *really* make the armor look odd. The scaley, multi-toned undersuit, the (arguably unnecessarily) high polygon count, and the lack of codpieces really make the armor look different.
@@GreatfulGert The coloured undersuit is just dumb. It should have remained black. As for the unnecessary polygons there's nothing except to completely throw out that art style that will.fix that. The codpiece... functionally it could go either way. But since the codpiece was originally plated it should remain that way.
Don't worry gen 3 will fix that!
I feel like the unsc has been heading for more generic suits and augments, instead of a heavy assault armor with an enhanced augmented spartan for absolute destruction
Same.
Gen 2 mjolnir= discount power ranger armor
@@z-man1237 lol ikr, they've got for generic quantity over unique quality that the gen 1 gave
spaz monkey
Plus it looked ready for war
A better idea would have been to take elements from the prototype armor from halo legends
spaz monkey
Or most importantly for good results; the armor from halo reach
The part with the Chief vs Locke fight - I had to watch it like 6 times, bcs I was focusing on the fight and not listening ;p
What would future generations of Mjolnir look like?
hearing him just get fed up with the dumb amount of armour is so funny
Under normal circumstances if it took 11 minutes to get to the point, I would’ve left already . But not here. Not with this topic. I appreciate the care and detail, and the preamble.
I thought fotus was made to get donuts
You sounded so sad when you said gungnir but I agree
Man this is awesome up to the tactical packages. There simply is no lore that could justify most of those. Why limit Spartans in such random ways unless they get that pack? Man this kind of stuff really pisses me off in H5 lore.
This is why video games are the worst form of science fiction storytelling. Because gaming is the only storytelling medium where there's a design need that's not subservient to the needs of the story. This is, of course, gameplay.
Ok I’m confused on one thing, can all Mjolnir components be downgraded for custom use by other military branches or just only Spartans, and do all Spartans change suits for mission requirements or just some and others keep what works for them best?
I love your videos. The amount of effort you put into your work is as astounding! Keep it up!
Awesome video, but still waiting on most detailed breakdown of halo ring
4:17 I had no idea this was what I came here for until I got here.
That was quite the nerdgasm I had when I looked at the length of this vid...
Idk if anyone mentioned this yet, but a lot of armor configurations (not including the alternative universe suits from Infinite) feature tidbits of lore that I would love to hear you extrapolate upon. For example, how would certain military operations where Spartans are involved lead to a decision in which modifications would be made to forearm armor plating and configuration? I would adore hearing your input on these.
4:18 how many takes did that, well, take?
I was really interested in the armour variants. There are several aspects of a set of GEN-2 mjolnir armour, and different variants excel in different aspects to better suit the role of the armour. Two things confuse me however:
1: why are there like three or four variants for the SAME TASK!? I'm pretty sure I heard three different variations for aerospace combat.
2:Olive is for hiding hair. Literally anyone with a helmet can do that.
According to halopedia, the gen 2 is made from a ceramic metal alloy. And I believe that they are referring to cermet(ceramic and metal) which is what current body armour is made of like boron carbide and silicon carbide. So maybe they are using cermet reinforced cermet for the gen 2 armour bc it will then have better protection against planes based weapons which I believe was the goal for gen 2 armour
Buck has such a smug face huh in halo 5
Catch up Mjolnir, you need to integrate it into your body, the black carapace still surpasses your tech
Is it ironic that I was looking for this video last night on your channel since you mentioned it in one of your other videos? And damn near a whole hour of 00 doing a breakdown? My Birthday isn't for another 17 days!
GRUMPA SALTY No it’s just coincidence. It’s not the opposite of what you’d expect.
Spartan 4= Mini Chief
Oh boy, 00 breaking down some 343 era tech, can’t wait to hear how it’s a downgrade/s
joking aside, you are the legend when it comes to halo lore, so i’ll trust whatever conclusion you come to
As much as i dislike the 4s, the gen 2 puts them on par with the old variants of gen 1. Mk. VI of gen 1 is superior over the gen 2 suit for a spartan II as that 5x multiplier for just strength is better than the restrictive hard cap of the synthetic muscles in the case of the IIs and the armor is just more durable as shown in halo first strike, 3, and 4, surviving high atmosphere and orbital falls with the user alive. That half ton weight and hydrostatic gel counts for something. But yeah the gen 2 armor is good for what it is tbh. Being on par with Mk V of gen 1(outside of that durability) while being cheaper and lighter isnt a small feat.
@@tavianarmstrong974
You do know that the "restrictive hard cap" is only a theory right? Not really cannon info.
Gen 2 also comes in a variety of weights some can be lighter like chief suit is only around 120 kg but someone like buck's armor weighs 500kg , Fred's armor also weighs more than chiefs at 470kg.
And I also don't think gen2 is less durable, just less protective than gen 1 due to the more exploitable gaps in the armor. In terms of a shoot out it would offer greater durability due to the better shielding in comparison to Gen 1 counterparts.
@@lumpeistbark3 but it isnt a theory. The reason why it exists is because the armor no longer amplifies what the user does like gen 1's 2x for mk V under and 5x for mk VI over via that liquid crystal thing he mentions in his gen 1 breakdowns. I think of it as hydraulic fluid based on the wearer.
The gen 2 armor is synthetic muscle which works with the wearer rather than amplifying meaning the hard cap does exist for IVs, the IIs may be higher due to a higher base but im guessing there as this is multiplicative vs additive. Shielding is definitely better. The protection shift i believe deals with a shift in *what* it protects from. The entire suit gives far superior energy protection compared to gen 1 as the armor to tech suit and undersuit all diffuse heat with the under and tech suits acting as kevlar with the armor acting like gen 1 plating but with a better refractive layer. Against human weapons the armor definitely pales to gen 1 but gen 2 holds equally as much over gen 1 in energy protection.
That weight thing i guess is a fair point on your end.
There is a noteworthy lack of mentioning the hydrostatic gel in gen 2 which confuses me considering it's why the gen 1 armor can do a high altitude fall without killing the user, i mean with the movement system that wont be a issue ever again but what about blunt trauma like getting splattered, ragdolled, or a zero g problem.
@@tavianarmstrong974
No , it's his theory of how gen 2 works you can even look it up on halo wikipedia or halo spartan field manual gen 2 uses ;
"Force-multiplying circuits: Allows the user greatly enhanced reflexes and strength, improving mobility and combat effectiveness in close quarters. *Notwithstanding* *the* *lack* *of* *any* *truly* *understood* *limitations* , Spartans have been recorded lifting Warthogs, bending steel, and shattering concrete on the battlefield"
This whole "Cap/limitations" theory is only people trying to basically downplay spartan IV and hype up the IIs. The *truth* of the matter is that we do not know why the fight between locke and cheif was as even as it was , we don't know if Spartans IIs gains the same strength boost as the IVs get but we do know they they get faster with gen 2 compared to gen 1 going by kelly recording her best speed in the suit and a sIII being capable of outpacing a warthog in gen 2 which no spartan in gen 1 could accomplish.
And what proof of that due you have? In ghost of onxy chief and blue to were worried of .30 caliber ap rounds , Gen 2 as far as my knowledge was only pierced by standards human rounds on one occasion being in new blood where buck hit by a rifle where he statest the barrel can fit his entire(gauntlet) thumb into.
The hydrostatic gel layer exsist still in Gen 2 but sense its not something new it's probably not talked about but in bad blood buck was going to experience a similar fall that chief did but he didn't know if he would survive or not, (although buck was constantly questioning himself and his capabilities all throughout the book so who knows what would have really happened)
@@lumpeistbark3 I don't think gen 2 makes you faster as the crystal layer of gen 1 is superior to the muscle suit of gen 2.
I really like the Gen II Mjolnir and think it looks really cool.
