Could spartans ever get infected?

Just wondering, with enough flood spores attacking... could they ever through the armor? Is it possible?

  • As others have said, it is possible when his shield system is down. They can get through the softer parts of the armor if he is not careful. They can't eliminate those weak points because his armor has to remain flexible. Pro tip: He shouldn't let his shields run out. ;D

    The tendrils of infection forms are sharp, and can poke through weak spots in MJOLNIR armour. It almost happens to Master Chief in one of the Halo books. You could also use Halo 4 as an example, but that's really just a nice looking character model to make Infection look a little better.

    • John almost got infected in The Flood, when an infection form nearly got inside his suit.

      • Just a question, why are you using #flood as well as the group? It makes the flood group completely irrelevant.

      • Well in halo 4, the flood game type's flood ARE infected spartans. Also, I would think this is possible seeing how easily spartans take off their helmets through the campaign.

        • I don't think just by spores. Their suits are sealed to the elements and capable of enabling them to travel and do spacewalks. So it should be sealed to spores. However, if they're swarmed by Flood, it's possible for the larger forms to rip holes in the armor letting the spores get it.
