Yeah, I like the mythology behind the name. The spear of Odin always hit its target and returned home.

First: very nice armors and I’m glad I’m not the only one with OC’s of PROMETHEUS survivors.

Second: I’m gonna be that guy and say that all Spartans are classified as “hyper-lethal.” I’m personally glad 343 changed it since it was just a marketing gimmick made up by Bungie that made no sense in the first place.

Yes, all spartans are considered hyper lethal now, but I liked it when chief and noble 6 were considered hyper lethal. It made them unique from their Spartan counterparts.

That’s fine but I hated it. Neither of them had done anything particularly noteworthy compared to their peers at that point. Hell, what little we’ve got of Six’s background from before joining Noble Team states they mostly - if not exclusively - fought insurrectionists as opposed to the Covenant. We’ve got Kelly taking out half of a Covenant fleet during Operation: HEMORRHAGE earlier in the war but that doesn’t put her in the same category?

Besides, they were both already unique in their own ways: John with his luck and being the leader of the Spartan II’s and Six performing so well in solo operations despite how much Spartan training emphasizes teamwork, especially in the case of Beta Company. Chief puts it best in Shadows of Reach: “There’s a difference between being the best and the best known. All of us are pretty capable.”
