I love the hunters, they’re just so cool. With their armor design, their menacing presence and huge guys makes you completely change your fights style when versing them
In one of the books, it talks about one of Jon's first missions. And at one point, he sees a dead jackal (or grunt, I forget) on the ground that looks like it's been crushed by an elephant (animal, not vehicle) And later they learn that it was a hunter walking by, saw the jackal in front of it, and didn't care to walk around it, so it just stepped on its neck and kept walking
yeah and out of armor they are still rather deadly, as seen in Halo: Nightfall. This is also why the few times you hear hunters speak, they never use singular pronouns when referring to themselves, they operate with collective consciousness in each colony, making them very adaptable.
Grunt soldier: Sir, should we put some armor on the Lekgolo's backs? They seem pretty exposed, an easy weak spot for enemies to shoot at u know... Covenant Armor smith: Psht, u think too much. Just leave their backs armorless and exposed, what could possibly go wrong?
It's just that the worms just want a good sight from time to time... i mean, if only the worms at the top could see the outside, i don't think the rest on the bottom would like that very much 😂
Come one people, give the guy a break about his speech. He sounds like an otherwise intelligent and pleasant person. He might have difficulty reading or a speech impediment that he's having to work against. It hasn't stopped him from making high quality, entertaining videos.
I agree. I have a much less noticeable speech impediment and I can sympathize. It is REALLY irritating when my mouth just refuses to say what my mind tells it to say. I often just stop and take a deep breath, or if I'm not calm I might just mess up and go "okay mouth just freaking stop that shit! Gosh! Ugh!" And then I feel better. It only happens when I read though. Not when just talking with nothing to read from. So I bet he gets fed up with his speech, and he can't very well just record 1 thousand takes until it's perfect (never happens). So he likely just bites the bullet and makes the videos. Advice I have for him would be instead of making a script, write down about 2 to 5 words that remind him of a bunch if information. This way the reading problem won't kick in. I use this when I teach people. It helps me immensely. However, all speech problems are different, so it may be less effective for him (or more, actually).
I don't really have a problem with it but the only thing that bugs me is his pronunciation of Sangheli to put it simply it would be more or less easier to get someone to read a set of lines that says Sang-heli the second part sounding like how you would say Helicopter but as one word. That or watch halo legends episode "The Dual" as the Sangheli say the name of their home planet at least one to two times in the show. Anyway other then that the rest of the video was good.
saying that the LekGolo didn't go along with the thought of the great journey makles sense when you think about it they must of allowed Sargent Johnson to use the colony unit (scarab) to open the door and stop the firing of the ring by tarturus. In a way halo 2's ending was thanks to the LekGolo
As I understood when I read about the scarabs the LekGolo isn't the sole thing that is making the scarabas (like the hunters) just that they controll the scarab which is a machine, so maybe johnson and the other marines controlled the scarab. For example the first scarab in halo 2 the elites are controlling the scarabs. Some scarabs are controlled by the lekgolo (halo 3) and the 2 scarabs in halo 2 are older versions and controlled by other species (elites etc)
It was an epic moment when 2 hunters agreed to fight with you in H2 as Thel. They demolished everything! So they are used in the walkers as bio wires? Wow that is kind of cool.
Hunters have always been one of my favorite species in halo. The coolest moment in the whole halo series was when in halo 2 you play as the arbiter and the hunters side with you. Such a badass moment!
It kinda sounds like you are reading this directly from a webpage. It just sounds really robotic. Also what were they using to fight the covenant? Were they just bitchslapping them with worm arms?
After playing TMCC and Halo 5 beta, I can confirm 343i is gonna fucking rock Halo 5. If you're really sitting on Bungie's lap, it's best to get into a corner and cry. They'll never come back. Shit, nobody wants them back to begin with. No self-respecting Halo fan will tolerate Bungie's atrocities.
Francisco Martinez As a person who has played halo since its introduction to the xbox, I don't exactly agree with that sentiment. What 343i has done with the franchise isn't terrible, but you can see the influences of other games from the designers who had worked on previous project (namely the full integration of sprint and smaller maps both void vehicular use).The mechanics and level design of Halo 4 were not the best of the series, the story of halo 4 felt rushed. and the multiplayer lacks a lot of variety than previous titles.You're entitled to your opinion, however I wouldn't go so far to say that 343i hasn't done some pretty bad things with franchise as of late.
I always wondered why that Scarab in Reach made a screeching noise when hit by Carter. Now I know that it was an actual living thing. That also explains why it's so smooth with its movements. I always thought it was just some Covenant vehicle like a giant Wraith with legs and lasers.
Ciro Ramirez Thanks for bringing that up Ciro! We'll add that to the log, and get back to everyone with that one. It's been a very overdue Lore video. Cheers! -Chris
Who else was even more confused about the lekgolo after watching halo nightfall than they were before? That shit confused the hell out of me cuz it's like wait they are super intelligent in groups and massacre anything yet they are shrunken down to hunter form?
Caden Yancey Yeah it was stupid. They were in swarms, like they were locust's or something. Complete bullshit. The film wasn't that good either... They literally copied the exact story for Pitch Black, but put a Halo spin on it (if you can even call it Halo.) They changed all the armor of the UNSC and just kept the guns and vehicles used... AND they added some random alien smuggler guy, like this isn't Star Wars... This is Halo god DAMN IT!
WAIT! Hunters are giant colonies of worms?! HOLY FUCK! I didn't know that! i always thought they were just weird fleshy big bad guys....damn i feel ignorant...
n30sp4rk Its alright man. When I started playing, I shit you not, I thought the worms on their backs were their genitals. That's actually what 8 year old me thought.
Romeo Garcia keyboard dueling? Wow. Look at that, someone has no life. And can you even do grammar right? It looks like along with no life, no parents.
kranos rose Look here buddy, just cause you lost all your chromosomes in reading my comment does not mean you have to be in denial. You just realized that there is a lot of irony of what you said. Just cause your mother gave you a laptop does not mean you can go one about talking crap you degenerate.
Scarabs are Lekgolo colonies... you learn something new everyday. There's this thing that upsets me about the Hunter Pairs. Two things really. They never have speech. And, considering the amazingly imaginative concept of Worm Colonies, they are used by the game developers in unimaginative ways. It really hasn't changed since Halo 2. I want to see a hunter pair combine into a terrifying Goro style monstrosity. Or perhaps split into Eight smaller Entities that scramble about the player, making itself a very difficult target as it attempts to reform behind you. just thoughts.
I have learned so very much from your superb videos. For example, that the one species I was terrified of in Halo was just a bundle of overgrown fishing bait. Unbelievable! Many sincere thanks, dude!
Not really, text or not the way he speaks is really weird and suggests he either has a speech problem or isnt the best at english like how he says " sapient " wrong and " more rare" instead of rarer. he also says " more akin to singular body" instead of "bodies" or " a singular body". he even says what i ASSUME " formidable fuel rod cannons" as "form-able"
Omlás I don't either, I was just pointing out that it wasn't because he didn't memorize it. English is just likely not his native language and there isn't anything wrong with that .
Canonically, there were also a lot of Mgalekgolo who sided with the Separatists too, as you could probably see within the final mission(s) of Halo 2. They just weren't featured as allies in Halo 3's gameplay because that would be extremely confusing trying to distinguish between friend and foe (seeing as they were on both sides). In fact, I think a couple guys in Bungie actually acknowledged this as a problem in Halo 2 as well, during developer commentary of the first couple Arbiter missions.
There could be some many more variations of the hunters and scarabs. What would be cool would be a flying one as big as a phantom that can land on the ground and shot like 4 big fuel ride cannons like a giant metal beetle!
I used to be afraid of these when i fought them. Now i just see how long it takes to punch them to death Also im trying to play halo but this one hunter keeps shooting me
It's "Lekgolo" plus the Tagalog word "mga" which is used to make nouns plural in Tagalog. It's pronounced "manga" - with a single "ng" sound - not manga as in Japanese comics.
Schism is pronounced *shism* and Te is pronounced tay. Great video as always Chris and you are still the #1 halo channel due to your dedication and great videos. Thank you👍👍👍🎉
It can be either way. Your both right. If you google it it does say it can be either way but is less common for it to be said as the "shiz-em" instead of "skiz-em"
And for the people saying "oh theres nothing wrong with his speech" don't lie to yourselves and be ignorant. Instead of being a part of the problem, help fix it
It's quite simple, really; they ARE the Scarab. The worms spread out through the Scarab's limbs and power core. Their armor is made from the same material as the Hunters'. Do you understand?
Think of the Hunters as a tiny Scarab. Or the Scarabs as giant Hunters. Either way, it'll work because the worms act as a hivemind covered in impenetrable armor. How much armor they have and what shape that armor is, is what determines the fundamental difference between a Hunter and a Scarab
exactly what Glueman Degrossi said lol....they just keep growing bigger with more worms than hunters...this is kinda ridiculous though because why not make more types of units outa these worms? why just hunters and scarabs if they are so adaptable?
There's an interesting precedent for this in terrestrial biology. Individuals in some bryozoan colonies function more like individual cells in human bodies, performing specific functions such as locomotion, digestion, and reproduction. There are colonies that can get up and walk around--which, when you're used to seeing bryozoans as stationary things akin to corals, is disconcerting! In addition, slime mold can perform logic functions in aggregate, despite being a fairly primitive organism. So the idea of a colonial worm-like species like the LekGolo evolving isn't far-fetched; every aspect of it is already present in our own biosphere.
You sir, are an intelligent young man/ woman. Judging from the comments thus far, there aren't many of you left, I'm afraid. You are a dying breed, but it's not too late.
He has some kind of problem. I know how that feels, though mine isn't so bad. It only happens if I read out loud. So if it's like mine, he's reading a script and his mouth is not saying what his brain is telling it to. I get really pissed at my face sometimes when it does that. I even start insulting my own mouth.
Kel Smith that's exactly it. At the end of the video, when he's doing the "like, comment, subscribe" spiel, when he knows what he wants to say, it's fluent. The rest of the video is clearly reading a script that he hasn't rehearsed.
destined two82 I would shit myself so hard that my pants would be sent into slipspace, come back completely clean, and I would shit them again. On top of that, they can get up to like 5 feet. FUCK. THAT.
random guy Could have sworn that the giant ones in halo 3 (maybe halo 2, can't remember) with the one giant arm was the flood form of the lekgogo or maybe that's just a brute form?
Replaying halo 5 right now. In the first level with blue team when you're being tracked by the Hunters you can see the worms on the windows of the elevator....cool little detail I didn't notice the first time
I've never been one for art books.. But it would be cool if it came with it. I'm more for statues :). I have the H3 legendary helmet, the halo reach statue, I also have that limited edition hunter statue from forward unto dawn that only 500 in the world were made, also the halo 4 master Chief statue from McFarlane toys.
When I see grunts: just shoot this guy... When I see jackals:shoot the foot, shoot the face... When I see elites and brutes:stick grenade, concentrated shooting... When I see hunters:RUN
I am still surprised and frightened at the thought of the fact that the Scarebs are Hunters. I mean, if you could make those out of living creatures, how big could you scale before the system fails.
so i had heard a rumor that the lekgolo were scarabs but i wasn't dure if it was true or not this actually helped a lot of that information thanks so much #HaloFollower
***** Here we go again with a dumbass who thinks you have to be able to do the exact same thing in order to criticize someone......you can criticize if you want, if I want to call Chris a dumbass, I can because I have the freedom of speech at my side.

Was the lekgolo the same species that was in the 5 episode series: Nightfall? The species in Nightfall looked like them and many clustered to form larger bodies.
So your telling me that the things I've been killed by for 6 years were a bunch of worms
yes you've been killed by failed hentai creatures for thr past 6 years
Yep. And they communicate not by talking, but by vibrating. "A hunter's speech is less heard, and more _felt_." That's pretty awesome.

The first time i killed one, i tried to steal his gun

Yeah that was in Halo: CE and when I picked up a Fuel Rod Cannon in the later Halo games I was like "Oh mah Gawd!! The Hunter-Gun!!"
+Ioan Jordan Same here lol
same. imagine if you could get the Hunter gun. it would be so OP.
Wait wait wait...their just thousands of worms that can link together into hunter armor?? WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT??
duh
yeah and out of armor they are still rather deadly, as seen in Halo: Nightfall. This is also why the few times you hear hunters speak, they never use singular pronouns when referring to themselves, they operate with collective consciousness in each colony, making them very adaptable.

How long have you been playing Halo?
You must be new to this series

Covenant Armor smith: Psht, u think too much. Just leave their backs armorless and exposed, what could possibly go wrong?
I think a good reason for that is it would cut down their mobility.
DreamStepper Plus a Spartan could probably punch straight through it eventually (or at least John could).
Im sure it was done for gameplay purposes. In the universe they should be more formidable.
A pistOl shot to the back lol
It's just that the worms just want a good sight from time to time... i mean, if only the worms at the top could see the outside, i don't think the rest on the bottom would like that very much 😂

There really isn’t anything lol. I was able to understand fully in this 8 year old video lol. I’m not lying to myself, being honest lol.
The worms are up to 65 pounds?? IMAGINE HOW HEAVY A HUNTER IS
Can someone please explain to me how the Lekgolo can control a scarab...
It's quite simple, really; they ARE the Scarab. The worms spread out through the Scarab's limbs and power core. Their armor is made from the same material as the Hunters'. Do you understand?
Very carefully
Think of the Hunters as a tiny Scarab. Or the Scarabs as giant Hunters. Either way, it'll work because the worms act as a hivemind covered in impenetrable armor. How much armor they have and what shape that armor is, is what determines the fundamental difference between a Hunter and a Scarab
Zakhar they are the scarb the scarb body is just a big piece of armor
exactly what Glueman Degrossi said lol....they just keep growing bigger with more worms than hunters...this is kinda ridiculous though because why not make more types of units outa these worms? why just hunters and scarabs if they are so adaptable?
Question. Can the Lekgolo be infected by the flood?
so the hunters are jelly doughnut?
A history of the brutes video would be dope!
What if humans allied with the lekgolo? Unlikely, but that would be interesting.
?
You know, like hunters fighting with humans, instead of against them
the video was very interesting. my favorite covenant species is the HUNTERS!!! they r badass
But-but what about zealot assassins?
they are sangheli, just that they got other equipment
The choppy and awkward presentation of the lore, along with the many mispronunciations, kinda ruined it for me
mand0rk same, like "Sangelly" or "San Shy-um"
You neef to relax
Ye it puts me off too tbh
@@simonwilliam9082 Yeah he neefs to relax. It neefs to be done. Neef 😅
Sounds like a speech impediment.
There's an interesting precedent for this in terrestrial biology. Individuals in some bryozoan colonies function more like individual cells in human bodies, performing specific functions such as locomotion, digestion, and reproduction. There are colonies that can get up and walk around--which, when you're used to seeing bryozoans as stationary things akin to corals, is disconcerting! In addition, slime mold can perform logic functions in aggregate, despite being a fairly primitive organism. So the idea of a colonial worm-like species like the LekGolo evolving isn't far-fetched; every aspect of it is already present in our own biosphere.
You sir, are an intelligent young man/ woman. Judging from the comments thus far, there aren't many of you left, I'm afraid. You are a dying breed, but it's not too late.
I'm trying not to be insulting, but your delivery of these lines was awkward.
Try taking at least 2 or 3 takes per line to get a better delivery.
when I played halo 2, I thought a scarab was a big machine, but it's A FRIKIN ALIEN
sounds like he's having a hard time talking in his videos
He sounds like a damn bot
He has some kind of problem. I know how that feels, though mine isn't so bad. It only happens if I read out loud. So if it's like mine, he's reading a script and his mouth is not saying what his brain is telling it to. I get really pissed at my face sometimes when it does that. I even start insulting my own mouth.
scariest alien species when you see them
You sound like it's the first time you have ever read the dialogue and aren't familiar with what you are supposed to be reading.
Kel Smith that's exactly it. At the end of the video, when he's doing the "like, comment, subscribe" spiel, when he knows what he wants to say, it's fluent. The rest of the video is clearly reading a script that he hasn't rehearsed.
one of my favorite species in Halo 😍
please do history of odst
wouldn't it be kinda sorta cool to see a planet made entirely of logolo
You know the Halo 2 mission where you fight heretics? In the developer commentary, they talked about how originally they were going to be all hunters.
+RVB12 not what I mean.
destined two82 I would shit myself so hard that my pants would be sent into slipspace, come back completely clean, and I would shit them again. On top of that, they can get up to like 5 feet. FUCK. THAT.
They can't be 1.5 meters if the average human is 1.7 meters and those things are much much bigger
Gruntrs are 5" 7 as well apparently, and the hunters are twice the size of them.
The individual worms are that size a hunter is 12 feet tall
They link together to form larger organisms
love these videos i also love that you use the metrhic system as well thanks Chris!
Lol Hunters just don't give a fuck
thats why everybody loves them for not becoming flood forms
random guy Could have sworn that the giant ones in halo 3 (maybe halo 2, can't remember) with the one giant arm was the flood form of the lekgogo or maybe that's just a brute form?
its a pure flood form The hunters couldn't be infected
Chicken Shark ik I saw a hunter kill like 12 grunts when I walked in front of him they turned on him shot at him he killed them and did not attack me
Replaying halo 5 right now. In the first level with blue team when you're being tracked by the Hunters you can see the worms on the windows of the elevator....cool little detail I didn't notice the first time
History of convent weapons?
Basically they repurposed Forerunner tech to make their stuff, their ships, weapons, armour and even High Charity.
Each one specially?
Master Chief Productions Technically, the Brutes made their own weapons: Spikers, Brute shots, maulers, etc.
HaloFollower should do another video fro this, Halo 5 and Halo Wars 2 bring a few facts about the Lekgolo to light.
NNNNNNOOOOO DONT PREORDER ANY GAMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But I want the Collecters Edition
Me to I want the statue lol.. Unless when they reveal it it's lame I'll just cancel
KocheR800r i hope the announced artbook will be in there, too
I've never been one for art books.. But it would be cool if it came with it. I'm more for statues :). I have the H3 legendary helmet, the halo reach statue, I also have that limited edition hunter statue from forward unto dawn that only 500 in the world were made, also the halo 4 master Chief statue from McFarlane toys.
KocheR800r Awesome. The Halo 5 Statue will be the first one i will have. I couldn't afford them back then. I have the Astro A50s Halo Style though :D
love how people complain about your voice and continue to watch your vids keep up the good work dood.
When I see grunts: just shoot this guy...
When I see jackals:shoot the foot, shoot the face...
When I see elites and brutes:stick grenade, concentrated shooting...
When I see hunters:RUN
When I see a hunter I whip out my Halo CE pistol and one shot it in it's back lol
Makes me feel bad for all of the hunters I've killed, they didn't wanna be there :(
hey, there's a good side to it: you released them from the prisons they had been trapped in
ya.. ur reading. thats not how u teach. we need u to sound like u know what ur talking about, not reading a script.
AZ budski "thats not how u teach." Ok, but your not exactly a Grammar teacher.
What if the worms started their own faction, and the leader is like a hive mind, like the gravemind, but, not flood
god, this guys narration is painful..
Sepient? wut?
He has a speech impediment
ODST Gamer proof?
I am still surprised and frightened at the thought of the fact that the Scarebs are Hunters. I mean, if you could make those out of living creatures, how big could you scale before the system fails.
Jesse The Houndreon infinitely...
as long as you have enough worms you can build anything, like Legos
Can you stop saying Sangheli like that
RCXGAMERX Not really :/
+PHYREXIAN FISH No need to complain now anyways
Keenan Caraballo Good observation
so i had heard a rumor that the lekgolo were scarabs but i wasn't dure if it was true or not
this actually helped a lot of that information thanks so much #HaloFollower
Learn how to pronounce simple words.
***** Here we go again with a dumbass who thinks you have to be able to do the exact same thing in order to criticize someone......you can criticize if you want, if I want to call Chris a dumbass, I can because I have the freedom of speech at my side.
Really like this series!! please continue
My god rehearse before reading off the paper during the damn video it was painful to listen to you pronounce everything
Someone didn't read for the class enough!
if so many people here have an issue with his way of talking, then why are you here?
I came for you babe!
omg I got a quest chin! r u ready for my quest chin?
R U REALY A GRILL???
PlazmaCow last time i checked...
+Rυℓє Of Dιαиα Omg I'm gon send u a friend request k?
you'll xcept k?
k?
PlazmaCow no.....
There was that live action movie where the Lekgolo was the primary antagonist and it scared me.
#halofolloweriscancertothehalouniverse
Miles Marshall #benjam
Miles Marshall How?
+Miles Marshall why?
+boaz helton relax hes just a butthurt troll whinning for attention
makes sense
just want to give props to you for your commentating and choosing of soundtracks. tbh i think your videos would be super boring with out the songs...really awesome channel dude you definetly deserve 200k+ subscribers! keep it up!
dude seriously stop reading off a paper and learn improv, i mean the history stuff you do is cool and all but i cant stand the way you st-op and stutter with every fricken word, talk like a normal human please i am begging you
Was the lekgolo the same species that was in the 5 episode series: Nightfall?
The species in Nightfall looked like them and many clustered to form larger bodies.
this guy needs to learn how to talk
If y'all remember, in HAlo 4 Spartan Ops, The giant harvester drill or whatever you want to call it is a type of Lekgolo species.
i love that; 'don't join? we'll glass your planet.'
I love how the covenant works, "kicking our butts? Glass em"
I personally think this is the coolest species in halo
I would like to see the brutes next.
