You should do a video on the strongest Marines, even if they aren't traditionally enemies. If you kill enough of them, they will fight you, and their effectiveness against you in that situation can be pretty interesting between games.
Right, agreed. Now for shielded jackals, I have to say Halo one has the hardest jackals. They can shoot their plasma pistols the fastest out of all of the shielded jackal variants.

+Santiago Morales Garcia actually, they didn't have that in Halo 2. It was only after Halo 2 (the first game they were in) they realized that they needed to code in a "warning shot" mechanic. I think they also put the warning shot mechanic in H2A, but I'm not completely sure.

1) Halo 2 (Because how couldn't they be???) 2) Halo 5 (One sniper managed to get an overkill extermination on Blue Team...) 3) Halo: Reach (Strongest shields) 4) Halo CE (Less predictable) 5) Halo 3 (Less accurate and easy to spot snipers) 6) Halo 4 (Two shot snipers) 7) Halo 3: ODST (Two shot snipers and easier to spot than the ones in Halo 4) Now to see how I did.
Yes, there is an edit. Originally I just wrote the games. The edit was to add why. You know I've done Legendary and Mythic/LASO guides for all of them right?
@@dominickmitchell6661 Halo 2s Jackals are fucking impossible to avoid. I've been sniped from around corners, from under cover, you're never safe. They rarely miss.
I have to admit I love the halo 2 animations for the jackals. It’s kinda funny how they pop their heads up curiously and then a different one will kill you immediately
keyes : "coming here was reckless" chief : "Idk sir, i think talking about our battleplan in the middle of a shootout is more reckless. but you're the captain....captain keyes."
So much, that checkpoints kept resetting. I was the run and gun type, and I loved to play multiplayer with my brother... oh the rage and anguish I caused him lol
So this is my opinion on which halo has the strongest jackals. WARNING: THIS IS SURPRISINGLY MY OWN OPINION Also depends on the situation. For instance sometimes power jackals will overcharge the plasma pistol immediately taking out your shields, whilst the Elites or Grunts take you out. (i always play on legendary) Energy Jackals (lowest is the lowest difficulty and highest number is highest difficulty) Also never played ODST and only played a lil bit of reach 6. Halo 4 (incredibly predictable and almost never overcharge their plasma pistol) 5. Halo 3 (why i dont really have a reason, just in my opinion are easy to kill) 4. Halo Reach (simply because they have the best shields) 3. Halo 5 (they overcharge alot from my experience) 2. Halo CE (they are very unorthodox) 1. Halo 2 (they are incredibly good at distracting you whilst elites kill you, and also are very good at draining your shields) Sniper Jackals 6. Halo CE (pretty sure there are none in this game) 5. Halo 4 (i barely ever saw any) 4. Halo 5 (same with 4, never really saw alot) 3. Halo 3 (legit have a light on their head, and also are only in 2 missions if i remember correctly) 2. Halo Reach (they are way easier than halo 2 because of that light on their head) 1. Halo 2 (true pain)
Hi Luke, love these videos. I’m new to Halo and I’m really enjoying catching up with the canon and lore. These videos are good fun and really well crafted. Keep up the good work mate.
When I first played Halo 2 legendary I was maybe six or seven and I had't grasped the concept of rage quitting so me playing halo 2 on legendary caused all my older brothers to be entertained because I wasn't affect by the ridiculous amounts of time those F***ers shot me.
The tail ends of this list are fine. I think there's an argument to be made that Halo 4 Jackals are the easiest because of the headshot bullet magnetism in that game. Combined with the ease at which one can get Jackals to drop their shields, I rarely feared them in Halo 4. However, you made a few great points about the ODST Jackals' AI weaknesses that at least justify ordering them in the fashion you did. Like with your Elite list, I knew which I'd put at the tippy top here. Halo 2 Jackals are the most annoying and potentially deadly enemy in the game, rank for rank. Snipers are "aimbot fast" and one-hit-kill deadly. Combined with being one the most difficult enemies to kill due to irrationally high damage resistance and low frequency of shield drops, Jackals are insanely powerful in Halo 2. I disagree with the middle of this list quite strongly, though. I would order them as such, from weakest to strongest: Halo: Reach - No snipers with Beam Rifles, no supercombines with needle weapons, ease of shield drops and follow-up headshots; mainly, though, Skirmishers are NOT Jackals: both Jackals and Skirmishers are Kig-Yar, but they are not the same enemy class (hence, their clear distinction in human naming nomenclature; they even have different homeworlds) Halo 5: Guardians - Tougher than Halo 4 and Halo: Reach Jackals because harder to stun, plus you forgot to mention that Halo 5 Jackals are the first EVER that will melee you up-close with their shields; will carry Needlers and can get supercombines; snipers can one-hit-down you, but they spawn in predictable places, and I've rarely had my whole team taken down by a single sniper, as I was usually in enough cover when hit to be revived by less exposed teammates Halo: CE - The most difficult aside from Halo 2 Jackals becuase they are harder to hit in the hand (therefore harder to stun), there's less bullet magnetism for headshots with the pistol, and most definitely the likeliest of all Jackals to successfully hit you with a plasma pistol overcharge (from great distances, around cover, etc.) due to the high tracking capabilities of that attack in CE; less deadly than Halo 4 and 5 Jackals for sure, but their support capabilities in CE and challenge killing with anything other than a grenade makes them a quite distant second place on my list
Shelby Sigouin Except that they'll most likely miss the head and only hit you in the body. Plus, I think you can still survive a headshot from a Beam Rifle.
This ones a bit harder to explain than the Elites. Basically almost all the shield Jackals are little more than cannon fodder in every game, baring the unique Skirmishers, while the Snipers are the dangerous ones. Jackals in the lore are generally treated more as mercenaries than real soldiers so in most situations the shield Jackals are probably little more than untrained bodies the covenant pays to be thrown into the grinder. The Snipers are probably the only real ones with actual training and may or may not be more elite Jackals who prefer to distance themselves from the combat and let the Green Horns absorb the bullets for them. Therefore, the stronger the Snipers are the more elite the Mercenary unit can be said to be. The strongest snipers are in 2 and 3 which accompany the Prophet of Regrets personal flagship, so these where probably the most elite mercenary companies that the covenant could obtain and were therefore only used sparingly wherever the high prophets felt the most dire need of skilled soldiers to be. The Snipers in 5 were probably the most experienced Jackals to survive the war and probably spent time being hired by each faction (Swords of Sanhelios, the Banished, the Arbiter, etc) to raid and conduct attacks on the other factions to destabilize them after the war, so they would probably have snipers equal or slightly lesser than the ones employed by the Prophets, which is probably why they are such good shots. The Skirmishers are obviously just a very well trained sub species of Kig-Yar which never where that numerous and were mostly exhausted after the Siege of Reach. TLDR: The Shield Jackals are probably all newbies to their mercenary company and don't really matter, while the snipers are where the money and talent are. Best Snipers either served the Prophets directly or made bank working for every faction that needed to attack every other faction once the covenant splintered all to hell.
Everyone always thinks that the skirmishers were wiped out on Reach, in lore their numbers didn't even take a huge hit, they just weren't included in other Halo games.
The main weakness of the Halo CE jackals is that their shields don't protect against melee attacks, so if there are just a handful of jackals, rushing in might work. They also die with just one headshot like the grunts, but getting that headshot is much harder than with jackals from Halo Reach for example.
I remember in halo 4, the enemies are much less likely to shoot you in the back. They would actually try to face you before attacking. I cheesed through a lot of skippable fights by just looking at the ground or walking backwards on legendary.
The mission Truth and Rec has a few glitches in it that I have found. 1 is at the end of the mission, you can kill Keyes AND hit the switch for the ship and doing so will allow you to lose, and win at the same time. 2 is when the Pelican comes to drop off marines in the big room, you can hop on it and get to the second level. It allows you to progress with the mission and get to save Keyes, then when you get to the room where the marines wait for you normally with Keyes, after everyone is done chatting, you'll beat the level instantly.
the worse part of regret was the chamber under water where you fought the hunters.... not because of the hunters but because of the combination of the damn jackal snipers with 30 fucking thousand drones. nothing like a pack of 5 jackal snipers side by side mixed with 2 dozen drones flying around them.
I recently bought the master chief collection on steam, I’m still finding halo on legendary to be harder than halo two. On halo if you kill everything, you’re going to run out of ammo. I haven’t really had that problem with halo two.
1+2=3 Halo has a third game Halo 3 was the greatest Halo of all A triangle has 3 sides A triangle is the strongest force of nature Coincidence? I think not 3+3=6 6 is two 3s Halo 6 comfirmed, it will be twice as better than Halo 3 Also, Illuminati comfirmed, 343 Industries and Bungie work for the Illuminati

Also depends on the situation. For instance sometimes power jackals will overcharge the plasma pistol immediately taking out your shields, whilst the Elites or Grunts take you out. (i always play on legendary)

Also never played ODST and only played a lil bit of reach

Halo: CE - The most difficult aside from Halo 2 Jackals becuase they are harder to hit in the hand (therefore harder to stun), there's less bullet magnetism for headshots with the pistol, and most definitely the likeliest of all Jackals to successfully hit you with a plasma pistol overcharge (from great distances, around cover, etc.) due to the high tracking capabilities of that attack in CE; less deadly than Halo 4 and 5 Jackals for sure, but their support capabilities in CE and challenge killing with anything other than a grenade makes them a quite distant second place on my list

Master Chief: *trying to talk to Captain Keyes*
Some random ass Jackal: "I'm about to end this man's whole career"
"Shut up and get behind my corpse... Sir."
Marine's being slaughtered with constant plasma fire*
Keys: *turns around to chiefs dead body, Lets get moving marine's....... Marine's?
I remember in halo 4, the enemies are much less likely to shoot you in the back. They would actually try to face you before attacking. I cheesed through a lot of skippable fights by just looking at the ground or walking backwards on legendary.
One does not simply get shot by a Halo 2 legendary Jackal sniper and survive.

~Halo 5 Jackals
Also, well done to Bungie cause they are a really creative enemy.
Silent Spectre 74 lol "bungie"
jackals arent unique.
an otherwise unpleasant person. Your name is pretty accurate
They're litterally just clawy bois with snipers
The mission Truth and Rec has a few glitches in it that I have found. 1 is at the end of the mission, you can kill Keyes AND hit the switch for the ship and doing so will allow you to lose, and win at the same time. 2 is when the Pelican comes to drop off marines in the big room, you can hop on it and get to the second level. It allows you to progress with the mission and get to save Keyes, then when you get to the room where the marines wait for you normally with Keyes, after everyone is done chatting, you'll beat the level instantly.
That Halo CE scene... I had the same issue a few times. Always cracks me up^^
Me: **see's thumbnail**
Also me: **lord, I can't do this anymore**
Omg I finally beat halo 2 on legendary and those sniper jackals were so annoying and hard
dude.... they're bad on outskirts but on regret they're a damn nightmare.
After this many years? I did it in 1 year XD
L1ttleWarrior13 Regret took me 3 hours on legendary.
the worse part of regret was the chamber under water where you fought the hunters.... not because of the hunters but because of the combination of the damn jackal snipers with 30 fucking thousand drones. nothing like a pack of 5 jackal snipers side by side mixed with 2 dozen drones flying around them.
I think the jackels are the strongest jackels
I love how this guy puts muscles on everything
this is why i liked reach campaign. Violent sure but no insane hit scan one hit ko.
said halo 2 before the video even started
"I'll sing you a true song of billy the kid,
I'll sing of some dares for a deed that he did..."
"Way out in New Mombasa, long long ago, when a marine's only chance was his own M6H"
Which halo had the strongest brutes
Also Halo 2, duh. Everything is the hardest in Halo 2 (except maybe the Elites).
I recently bought the master chief collection on steam, I’m still finding halo on legendary to be harder than halo two. On halo if you kill everything, you’re going to run out of ammo. I haven’t really had that problem with halo two.
the cut scene in the truth and recinsiliation chief just duies while keyes is talking to him XD
Master Chief: you can never hope to defeat me Covenant!
Covenant: I can’t but he can
Jackal with a beam rifle: Megalovania intensifies
"LOW ON SHIELDS IN HALO 3 ODST"
Obviously halo 2, those sniper jackels on legendary killed me b4 i could lift my rifle after spawning.
Lol, I remember that exact spot with the sniper scene in Halo 5
Those damn sniper jackals! That part on truth and reconciliation with chief and the marines dying in the cutscenes is hilarious! 😆
Strongest Hunters?
halo reach i think: Good IA and they hide the face with the shield while shooting back
Victor Kifyak hi
1+2=3
Halo has a third game
Halo 3 was the greatest Halo of all
A triangle has 3 sides
A triangle is the strongest force of nature
Coincidence? I think not
3+3=6
6 is two 3s
Halo 6 comfirmed, it will be twice as better than Halo 3
Also, Illuminati comfirmed, 343 Industries and Bungie work for the Illuminati
Well Halo 6 won't exist. They knew about ur theory and changed the name to Halo Infinite.
