I decided to decrease the number of flood members to 1 since it was starting to seem like a stomp

yes, I'm informing the others

Didn't notice the change, but anyways, either way, he's not getting past low-high even if he kills the combat form, he'll get infected and killed by the supercells, and it still has access to weaponry under 9-B, so it can still simply shoot him to death.

how fast the infection ocur?

so, when the infected die that thing get's out, so he just need to kill It
- 7,489
- 2,664
no, thats the infection form which would most likely die along with the combat form.
that thing has supercells inside its tendrils infront of it, so any supercells released should be relatively the same amount as much as it releases to infect inside a host

whel... this supercells in the air really ocur in the game?
- 7,489
- 2,664
yes, they do, throughout almost every flood level there are.
chief doesn't get infected because of his helmet and energy shields.

and this other humans? they appear in this levels? why humans without helmet don't get infected?
- 7,489
- 2,664
actually, most of the time they actually do get infected. the only time you ever really see uninfected marines is places where the flood hasn't reached
that and supercells aren't really an actual entity inside the game, they're more talked about and make the yellow fog in levels. so you could also just say 'game mechanics' for that one.

Is there a visual evidence of how "air infection" works?
- 17,060
- 4,928
hum... I mean, if only one infected die he really will put a dangerous amount of infection in the air?
- 7,489
- 2,664
visual? no, not that i know of, but to summarize it, you can probably think of it working like the same as john carpenter's the thing, turning regular cells into flood cells.
edit: the prophet of truth was infected like this, so never mind
- 7,489
- 2,664
and, yes, a single cell can infect an entire planet within hours, so it should be just as dangerous to a single person
- 17,060
- 4,928
ok, last question, they really shoot air born virus?
- 7,489
- 2,664
main infection method, shooting spores from their weird tendrils and murdering you
- 7,489
- 2,664
Also, correction, supercells infected the prophet of truth in halo 3, but he was killed shortly after infection, so there isn't much to go off of
- 17,060
- 4,928
ok, fair I think them... but there's any way to not be infected?
- 7,489
- 2,664
nothing from anything srelok has.
being genetically modified like spartans make it harder for them to infect them, but only makes it slightly slower
helmets, forcefields, ect can like spartans have done
- 7,213
- 5,509
Aaaaaactually.
Strelok have Merc suit and Endoskeleton for instance (suits with helmet).
If one of the calcs I made wouldn't be accepted for Strelok's armor this can be used by rules.
- 7,489
- 2,664
What does the armor look like?
- 7,213
- 5,509
I'm walking with dog right now, so I'll say quickly you can find link to those suits as well as to Strelok's weaponry and artifacts on his profile.
- 7,489
- 2,664
Ok, i'll look for it-
- 7,489
- 2,664
The merc suit has skin exposed, mostly in his hands, so he can still be infected from there.
the exoskeleton however, does seem to cover up literally everything, so if he can get that on before he's either A, murdered by combat form, or B, infected by the supercells, he could survive
how fast can he get that suit on?

we considere that he is alread using It
- 7,489
- 2,664
Alright, so then their wincon is to shoot him to death, which wont be that hard, since all of their weapons are wall level vs street level durability
- 17,060
- 4,928
you let that zombie hold guns?
- 7,489
- 2,664
Human forms are marines. standard equipment should have them wielding varying guns
- 17,060
- 4,928
they use that in the game?
- 7,489
- 2,664
- 17,060
- 4,928
fair, still has instances of they don't using so expecifie this should be better
- 7,489
- 2,664
still, the flood has an AP, LS, regeneration and have guns.
the flood can take hell of a lot more bullets than strelok can.
- 17,060
- 4,928
and if they don't have guns?
- 7,489
- 2,664
thats restricting standard equipment, which isn't allowed.

Unknown because it varies from host.
this is a human form. it has UNSC weaponry.
