The History of ALL the Arbiters

The Arbiter's are one of Halo's most iconic roles, but their history is one with a deep, troubled and surprising past. For this reason, I thought today we'd dive into the History of ALL the Arbiters in known history, and take a look at how the role of the arbiter evolved from one of great honour and prowess, to one of shame and punishment. This is the History of ALL the Arbiters...

[@JuICyBLiinGeR]

ODST springs to mind. A side mission that went full blown campaign. But you’re asking too much of 343. They can’t even update a game in 4 years. I’d love a arbiter series focusing on the rebellion or Contact Harvest, the origins of the war.. but never in 343’s hands. Ugh.

[@itsgab5745]

Two years old, very late I know. But in the Halo 5 design of the Arby, I can't help but find his appearance looks off to other Elites. Like, compare to the others we see, he's more stream lined, with features that remind me more of the Reach style. Looking at his face, his mouth looks far more natural compared to others which were larger and looked like they could stab their own eyes. Is it my favorite though. No. My favorite design will always be Halo 2 anniversary. Along with the armor. However, if we do see him again, I'd think it be cool to see him wearing a mix of his new armor with his old armor. Oddly though, this part might just be a crack pipe dream. But I think it be neat to have Arby use an energy sword made by humans. But that part is fanfic level of dreaming lol.

I have a feeling that the UNSC has mostly lost in Infinite (hence the trailer) and our boy Arby will come in with reinforcements like in Halo 3 when the flood invaded Earth.

[@__________1175]

But he already did in Halo 5 so it would reason that if the UNSC is defeated, so are the Swords of Sanghelios. Besides, if you recall, Cortana declared an imperial peace by threat of the Guardians on *all* species in the galaxy (universe?) not just humanity. I think Infinite's gonna be more of a post-apocalyptic take but not in the way you'd think when you hear that term. What I mean is, it seems like the game starts when we've already lost (or are on the brink of defeat) and Chief is pursuing some last ditch effort against insurmountable odds to save our asses. In other words I think this game is gonna be "Chief and his ragtag group of friends vs the World". "The World" being Cortana and whatever enormous advantage she probably possesses whether it still be the Guardians or something else.

[@swanqlord3048]

@@__________1175 good point, it would make sense that Cortana launched a full out attack and defeated every opposing species in the Galaxy. I also think it's mostly going to be a solitary chief game with maybe the pilot in orbit for drop offs and pickups. Maybe near the end of the game he can somehow meetup with whatever's left of the UNSC and do one last ditch effort against Cortana and somehow win despite being completely outnumbered (similar to mendicant bias vs offensive bias)

[@chrissonofpear1384]

Makes sense. Any remaining UNSC naval forces (Admiral Harper maybe?) would have to hide deep in former Covenant space to stand much chance of evading Cortana.

Jedi took inspiration from the samurai as did the elites.

[@duck8206]

The animators were given a lot of artistic and creative freedom in Halo Legends, which is pretty cool of 343 to let animators have some freedom for once.

[@Jedi_Spartan]

@@duck8206 apart from the fact that the Arbiter's wife didn't have mandibles for some reason...

[@fracturedframe1462]

Interesting

[@dr.catherineelizabethhalse1820]

[@Cerb746]

Thanks a lot! This really helped me. I’m making a google slide about halo facts and I’m starting with Sangheili and Arbiters. I’ll be sure to check out more of your vids!

[@metroidhunter965]

I like the look of Ripa ‘Moramee, with the way that Ripa’s mandibles are more spread while resting, instead of being tucked up like all other Elites is so cool.

The heretic arbiter is my favorite arbiter

[@vanguardknight0490]

Damn i never realized that was really him ._. now Arbiter seems even more badass

[@Gingy_Music]

Haven’t watched you in a while, congrats on 3k!

[@soldbprince]

Wanted this for agesssss thanks!!!!!!!!

[@mubitamoonga3789]

We need arby as a playble character infinite

[@Jjz0289]

I would honestly love that but unfortunately it won’t be true because 343 confirmed the chief would be the only playable charter and will take the main stage although we could play as him in co op and you never know arbiter story DLC that would be dope ahah

[@Dog1o5394]

It would be cool if it was like this Character select screen -Arbiter -Master Chief You choose one and the character you didn't pick fights alongside you or the other player plays that character

[@WhyTho525]

@@Dog1o5394 Oh shit that would be awesome

Remember, hinge-head can be an offensive term. Refer to them as Sangheili!

[@andygray1154]

Left a “like” because you said it in that funny voice. Great work as always truly enjoy your vids.

[@nourhim373]

in finally found an in depth video on the arbiters and what i was looking for

[@zynoveousprime118]

FOR THE ARBITER!!!!!!! FOR SANGHELIOS!!!!!!!! Please bring him back!

[@agilagilsen8714]

Will they bring back a good elite design while they are at it? We can only hope

[@iamonelonelytired]

I bring news from the future

[@foxtrotsierraproductions8626]

I think they changed the Pelican Design to the old one

[@CommanderWolf104th]

Great job my friend

[@beefpepperoni6323]

I hope the Arbiter has a significant role in Halo Infinite. He felt like a sidekick in Halo 3. It shouldn’t be that way. His backstory is far more extraordinary than Chief’s. Give Arbiter a moment of glory, even just a small cutscene, where he saves Chief from some sort of danger. And then that iconic Halo 3 piano plays as they shake hands, or give each other a nod, or Arbie says “were it so easy.”

[@ceranopierce]

My dad: Sorry son I’m being player 1 chief is way better Me: *plays as arbiter for most of my life and becomes to like him more than master chief* My dad: surprised pikachu face

[@Supermario0727]

Same. I'm a fan-boy of the Arbiter. Always loved playing as him in Halo 2 and Halo 3.

[@theblackswordsman3612]

I see you are a fellow arbiter fans as well

[@leriouslygaming5523]

bruh i would always be master chief and force my brother to play as arbiter

[@Joe-ev9ci]

Arbiter = Luigi

[@sto3s.y.d.255]

@@leriouslygaming5523 same even tho now that i know a bit from the lore the arbiter is way better... (he s got better weapons grenades etc.)

[@joshbrown9926]

In halo 2 don’t the prophets say that the armour is the same armour that all the past had worn? But the arbiter from halo wars clearly did not have his armour recovered since you know the planet exploded.

[@Gamer1990100]

Good work man

[@kestrelflurry]

I love the term 'arbiter itch' and am going to quote it on the daily now.

[@mlxiixlm]

''JOHNNNN'' - Cortana ''JOHNNNN'' - Arbiter

[@navb0tactual]

Halo: Destroying Reach If they were to ever make anything similar to this, I want it to be a separate game in which you play as Arbiter before he was arbiter, having a lot of the story corroborate and coincide with Halo Reach and Halo the Fall of Reach... That would be EPYC

[@vault1122]

Great video

I left a like just for the voice you did. Funny as heck man
