Some abilities can be used by Spartans and Elites as well. These abilities can also be triggered in the Multiplayer Mode. http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Armor_Abilities

• Armor Lockup can be accessed by the player to increase the armor’s shield for a short time. This ability prevents taking any rocket damage while used and also releases an EMP blast when the player releases the activation button. The blast knocks back any nearby enemy.

• Sprint is an ability which grants increased speed to characters. When the ability is used, the character will lower his weapon and will breathe heavily. This ability can reveal the player’s position.

• Active Camo is used as an active camouflage. This ability can be triggered while running, however it will deplete faster than when the character stands still. If the character is running, it will not be entirely covered by the Active Camo and the sounds are diminished.

• The Jet Pack is used to reach higher locations and is also useful to evade and strafe while flying. Players can avoid incoming grenades while holding down the action button. To consume this ability slower, the player should use it in bursts.

• The Hologram ability creates a decoy by projecting an image identical to the character’s image. The hologram can be controlled and it lasts 10 seconds. The allies can see the hologram on their radars as a white dot. When the projection takes damage it will flicker.
