Halo 1 Elite Zealot VS. Halo 2 Characters

[@AHPcameron]

Man I remember when I first saw a Gold elite in Halo Combat evolved and was blown away by how effective the AI was being able to dodge my stickies and rush me so tactically that I could become overrun

[@Kevin5279]

The AI in CE was just perfect. It wasn't unfair the way it was in Reach.

[@dr._breens_beard]

​@@Kevin5279there was a lot about CE that i prefered to virtually all other Halo sequels.

[@Kevin5279]

@@dr._breens_beard yeah I know. And Bungie got into this annoying habit of making the chief withstand very little damage on Legendary from H2 onwards. I mean grunts and marines take more damage than us on legendary. CE was a fair challenge and dying on legendary was mostly due to player error rather than the sandbox and AI being unfair. From H2 onwards every enemy fires so fast it's like they're moving plasma turrets

1:13 stared little dude down without moving while the grunt was holding a fuel rod cannon, literally giving him a free shot. But the grunt panicked, missed twice and the Elite was like "Ok you're embarrassing both of us" ☠️

[@lucamckenn5932]

A lot of these moments have been funny but the actual disrespect from the Prophet of Regret is ridiculously funny. I've never seen that before and have to believe in game he could normally do that to Chief if his laser kills you.

[@shcdemolisher]

It’s likely doable in Co-op since the other player keeps the fight going without stopping.

I love how at 10:38 he just stands there and takes it to assert dominance.

[@hugowells656]

Love how intelligent the halo ce ai were to think to jump to attack flying enemies

[@d3thkn1ghtmcgee74]

They did have sentinels in game so they might have already programmed them for those encounters

[@nickolaswild]

​@@d3thkn1ghtmcgee74I don't remember sentinels meet with golden elites with sword. But as I fly on banshee (not so high) or ghost they attack me using jumps

[@d3thkn1ghtmcgee74]

@@nickolaswild it's my guess. It might have been something added into the programming but left unused.

The lone Elite minor who took down the H1 zealot with that instant kill melee was unbelievably based

[@madgavin7568]

He did get pretty lucky though lets be honest.

[@bradenmccune-streit1710]

That’s because all melee attacks to the back are instant kills on everything except Flood and Hunters.

[@HolyMith]

Someone deserves a promotion lol

[@chrisreyesmora5664]

He even makes fun of him saying Ha ha. The gold elite's mistake was jumping so hard that he fell into a position where the blue elite only waited for him and gave him a forceful blow to kill him.

I really love the Elite Zealot and it is a powerful artificial intelligence. But I think it is unfair that in these simulations he wins over the honor guard elites, the ultra white Elites and the council elites. If we did a simulation where they start where they already have the energy sword, they would clearly easily beat the elite zealot because these are higher ranks.

[@chrisreyesmora5664]

In fact, in this video they show a more appropriate simulation, see approximately at minute four where an honor guard with an energy sword easily defeats the Elite Zealot. kzbin.info/www/bejne/anPcfZKsr7iGoacsi=0WiIAleOeskeNRdV
