Stealth Pilot Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 I just started reading Fall of Reach. It says the MJOLNIR suits are EMP and radioactively resistant...so a newer version of the suit would be sure to have a even better upgrade.

SatanicBagels Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 I think what they mean when they say EMP resistant is that the internal workings of the suit don't get affected. Otherwise every time you got shot by a Plasma Pistol you would use the use of your HUD and Armor Abilities. So while the suit is resistant, the outer shields are not. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealth Pilot Posted August 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Alright. I was just insuring that you did not lose the HUD or anything. Besides anything that took away electricity would lock your suit... I am guessing it just drains shields then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victory Element Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 yes, it simply drains the shields, no other power in the suit shuts down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victory Element Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 I thought this was about how Promethean nade wroked :c it is. Stealth Pilot just used the wrong name, but we get the general idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P-1609 Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 it is. Stealth Pilot just used the wrong name, but we get the general idea Oh. I think it would be better as a Light grenade, or dis-integrator or some thin, cause I mean... why EMP the Flood? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victory Element Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Oh. I think it would be better as a Light grenade, or dis-integrator or some thin, cause I mean... why EMP the Flood? no flood in halo 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallgeese Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 As Victory said, there are no Flood in Halo 4, Frankie and 343i confirmed this. So an EMP grenade would make sense as weapon that the Prometheans would be using, and have used to fight the Humans in the past. Seemingly it will act like a PP blast on a larger scale, or more directly, the energy drain from Halo 3 from what I can tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASuperWhiteGuy Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 no flood in halo 4 What P-1609 meant, I assume, is why would Prometheans have an EMP Grenade in the first place if all their other weapons were used to combat the flood. If you recall, all known Promethean weapons have a disintegration effect to stop the flood from spreading. I assume he just thought it was odd that a force using heavy anti-flood weaponry would use an EMP Grenade. But I guess Tallgeese answers that question! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemingly it will act like a PP blast on a larger scale, or more directly, the energy drain from Halo 3 from what I can tell. Human-Forerunner war was before Forerunner-Flood war. Forerunner inherited (or stole) the mantle. So they wouldn't use weapons anymore, and since they didn't know anything about the Flood, they threw them away. New -Hard Light- Weapons were made fore incinerating and completely destroying the Flood host, so there would be no more infection. Forerunner ditched their previous weapons and developed newer light-based ones. So that's why an EMP nade seems so... wrong for me.

Tallgeese Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 Ahh yes P-1609 but if the Forrunners still dont like the humans as hinted at from what we have seen than they would use EMP grenades that had used against humans in the past.
