Halo Reach: Red vs. Blue Flames

Hey guys im here to hear your opinions about the legendary vs eternal flames. There may be other threads out there similar to this one, but one question popped in my mind. How many people have red/blue flames currently in their "inventory"? I know we cant determine a specific amount or population, but i do see a small amount of red flaming helmet people compared to blue flames. Blue flames is cool to have because people who were there when bungie had a special event were able to participate with them and get rewared a nice gift. But, The red flames are for those who pre-ordered the Legendary Edition for Halo reach, i believe these codes are still being sold in small numbers though. So since i covered that up, What do you guys think is the best, and most rarest armor affect out of the two flaming ones compared to the population that currently has them?

I don't have either flaming helmet in my inventory. ._.

And probably the blue flames will become rarer, since Bungie is no longer dealing with Halo and 343 is not touching Halo Reach anymore. Although I would go out on a limb to say that both are equally rare.

 

Also this should be relocated to the Halo Reach section.

Well The entire population at one time had the option to earn the Blue flames (so do I). And you had to pay around 100 bucks for the red flames at release. I think Red is more rare.

I've only got the Blue Flame Effect. I was so happy when I first got it. It's hard for me to determine which effect may be more common.

P34nut I think by "Red flames" he is talking about the flames you got with the Halo Reach special edition. :)

 :orly:

 

I know that. That's why it surprises me he used it in the beta!

You know... When the game wasn't even released yet!

I don't have flames, but probably wouldn't even use them if I did. As for the rarity, I would say the red flames. Even though you may see more people with them, a larger group of Reach players are dedicated to the game, hence buying the special editions or buying codes online.

I personally think its a waste of money just for some flames.

Depends which ones ur talking about, the blue ones were free lol

The red came with the legendary edition + the recon helmet + the ua threat chest depending on where you got it and it came with the special elite armor too. The bundle was worth the money when it first came out, now the legendary flames are going for about 200 bucks on ebay! and thats just the flames lol

While the Flames are cool and all to see, this is the way I see it distributed in Reach.
 
Blue Flames: More common then Red, but still not seen often.
Red Flames: Rare, I don't see them a lot.
Grunt Birthday Party: A little Underused but can be seen often
Heart Attack: Decently Underused
Pestilence: Common
Inclement Weather: Overused to the point of saying "what's the point of wearing it, 12 of the 16 players in the game are using it?"

 

I wear pestilence, because I like looking infected and I enjoy watching the green drippings that fall to the ground from out of my armor.

Ive been seing more red's lately, probably due to the fact that people are license transfering is my guess. Although i see a blue flame once very 2 or three games. And ill probably see a red flame once every 4 games or five.
