Nah that would have been mad respect from them. Not only did he kill the elite boss, he also did it while being a regular humans. Spartans are far too used to seeing marines literally torn apart by the covenant
I don’t think Forge gets enough respect from the Halo community. He literally beat an Elite, not just any Elite but an Arbiter in hand to hand combat. And his sacrifice saved the Human race. He would of made an amazing Spartan IV.
@@-.Outlaw.- yeah and he landed a knife right into his throat, then quickly turned his sword against him in the stomach. That’s really close to how real life fights work, it’s not like star wars where the good guy and the bad guy block 300 hits and run away for another fight in the future
Ripa ‘Moramee was a Sangheili, who acted more like a Jiralhanae because he didn’t care about the Sangheili, but his faith in the “Great Journey” bullcrap was true, he was vicious
1:44 "And leave us defenseless?" I believe this line right here - the implication of a threat the Covenant must defend themselves against - was the line that 343 built the Banished on.
Tbh it could make really good sense tbh cause humanity is more defenseless to stop the covenant especially during this I believe so that's actually a really good point there
Unfortunately that's not the case. Atriox began his rebellion a few years before 2552 (the year when Halo: Reach, Halo Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo ODST and Halo 3 take place). Edit: The Banished rebellion started in 2549
1:42 It's actually a crime to draw weapons in the presence of a Hierarch. If he wasn't the Arbiter, he would have been arrested and executed by the Honor Guards.

I beat the Halo Wars campaign a million times when I was younger but as I grow older I love this game more and more. The dialogue, the story, the characters the quality of the cutscenes is just phenomenal.
Ripa Moramee was very aggressive with his tactics and strategies. Obviously he underestimated Sgt. Forge just for being a "weaker" race. Overall a worthy adversary though.
Such a missed opportunity with this character! He woulda been great in HW2 . Like an adversary to atriox since they’re both massive. Ripa has such good and violent lore behind him (he was a criminal) i would have loved to see more of his front line work. Alas, rather than ripping forge into two pieces, he dies by his own sword.
I like how his corpse just gets unceremoniously shoved off a cliff at the end. It's hilarious because he holds such an honorable title but his body is treated with such little care. It's very fitting for a villain like him. Especially considering that due to how the game ends the covenant would've had to make new arbiter armor. So this centuries old armor is destroyed on top of it's user being dead. Nice little bit of insult to injury for the covenant.
this game was my introduction to the Halo Series, when I first got acquainted with the Arbiter, I thought that was his name and not his rank. The next game I played was Halo 3 and when the Arbiter revealed himself, I thought that it was the same guy since he used the same tactics as the Arbiter in Halo Wars (going invisible and using Plasma Swords), was really confused as to why he was on the Human's Side. Played Halo 2 Anniversary and immediately went "OOOOOOOHHHHH" when the game tells you that the Arbiter is a rank for a Dishonorable Warrior Officer and that there have been many over the generations. Still, the Arbiter from this game is a pretty cool example of how they are portrayed from the Humans' Perspective. His brute-strength, his intimidating demeanor and how he has shoved aside his subordinates. It all really shows why he deserved that rank not through being effective but by being a loose-cannon and thank god we didn't get to fight him because the whole game portrayed him as somebody who could easily flog our characters, only for him to get defeated in a cutscene like the game is telling us; "See? He ain't so bad."
I love how the arbiter and most of the Elites in Halo Wars have a freakish fish-monster look. really makes them more scary and alien, but at the cost of them being less grounded in reality.
Jorge went hard but that last line was uncalled for cause he survived cause of plot amor cause in reality he shoulda died the first time they fought buh that fight always excites me as a kid
Forge just had plot armor, although, he was probably a spartan 1 or something, so he wasn't exactly a push over, either. Regardless, this Arbiter only got killed because he was cocky. If he had just killed Forge when he had the chance...well, that's it, really. He would've killed Forge.
Ripa Moramees height pisses me off .Elites typically range from 7'5-8'6 so that puts the average at 7'11 . Ripa visibly towers over literally every elite in this game and Ripa is only listed at 8'1 on the official Halo Pages ......makes literally no sense . He is clearly closer to 9ft.
The second he said he didn't care about that fellow Elite's life, I was like, that is NOT the Arbiter. Even during Halo 2 when he was still part of the Covenant, he was never cruel. He wasn't a stupid servant either. About the only thing they got right was the armor, and that Arbiter is ambidextrous.
I want to see a game where you play as the villains for the whole thing, with fully customizable armor. Kinda like Halo Reach but for Elites. Kill blasphemous humans and glass a planet at the end
I want a Halo game where you play as a female odst who's a spartan 1. In the game you'll get to fight insurrectionists but later on you fight The Covenant
It would be cool to see a halo game that revolves around arbiter and his army or a game where you play as an elite that is part of arbiters beliefs and its also similar to halo reach
Well i wouldnt say its better because most og halo fans didnt like the way halo wars was to them. Tbey wanted it to be a fps shooter game but not a strategy game.
@@Chief_Operation we all have our hopes and dreams but for franchise like halo to do something like that they really evened the playing fields I just wish they had more recourses rather than the covenant and the marines I wanted playable flood or thourunners
What I find interesting is how different he is from Arbiter Thel Vadam during Halo 2. Though he is still loyal to great journey and covenant, he really doesn’t seem care nor appreciate the elites around him and seems to want to put his life before theirs, even when disgraced, compared to Thel who was willing to sacrifice himself for their mission, and openly admitted that the elites around him meant more than he did; that he was ultimately disposable where they weren’t Not to mention how much more brutish he is; ignited his swords in front of a hierarch, displaying a lack of care of others around him as well as just a constant aura of anger, as opposed to Thel who was a lot more cool and collected, only showing a full burst of anger once, but even that was directed and it wasn’t long before he was able to pull himself back together and think of a plan to get him out of his predicament. Any diversity between alien characters of the same species is a good thing, it shows a diverse community, but it’s even better when it’s that of a specific role. It helps him stand out as a character more, rather than just blending with the Arbiter we already know and tend to think of.
6:30 can we also note how if the arbiter armor was provided with proper shielding the knife would have bounced off or atleast gone far less deep, just being a skin deep implalement that would maybe cause him to toss him to make distance but he wouldnt stumble and would maintain control of the fight (assuming the shielding isnt restricted to only activate against high velocity weapons, saying they use energy swords and pikes though i doubt it. (and most plasma weapons arent much faater than a knife attack anyways, maybe 2 to 3x as fast at most) so low velocity always active shielding makes more sense + it activating when you barely get tapped by vehicles or hit the ground hard (same for enemies even in cutscenes) shows its a always active low velocity shield. if im correct covenant shielding reactivly appears before contact whereas the unsc shields are always active and thus are less energy efficent and drain faster.
Tbh he probably would be that fact he was trying to evil monologue and not just finish it but karma got him but in the lore he was always known as a brash cocky Sangheili so his downfall dying like this isn't suprising to the lore nuts

The brash and brutish Ripa is a big contrast to the calm but authoritative Thel.
I miss the days of halo wars even the first halo wars had better graphics then all the other halo games in it's time
Well i wouldnt say its better because most og halo fans didnt like the way halo wars was to them. Tbey wanted it to be a fps shooter game but not a strategy game.
@@Chief_Operation we all have our hopes and dreams but for franchise like halo to do something like that they really evened the playing fields I just wish they had more recourses rather than the covenant and the marines I wanted playable flood or thourunners
“I will take what we have.”
this version of the arbiter is hotttt as fucckkkkk
Man this arbiter guy was basically a brute
This is quite an aggressive arbiter. He got spidey senses too
A fight between Ripa Moramee and Atriox would be the most epic thing to happen in the Halo Universe.
Forge : hello there
Moramee: Sergeant Forge! You are a bold one!
Ripa Moramee was little more than a bully who relied on strength and fury to win battles rather than strategy.
I just now saw that his energy swords come from somewhere on his arm
He was much larger then the current arbiter
halo 2 pistol was so slept on
6:44 shame his light went out before he heard that shit talk
When he said "Our patience is not INFINITE' bro he set up the WHOOOLOOOOOOLE thing
The way his mandibles look and how they move reminds me a lot of the Reapers in Blade 2.
What I find interesting is how different he is from Arbiter Thel Vadam during Halo 2.
Though he is still loyal to great journey and covenant, he really doesn’t seem care nor appreciate the elites around him and seems to want to put his life before theirs, even when disgraced, compared to Thel who was willing to sacrifice himself for their mission, and openly admitted that the elites around him meant more than he did; that he was ultimately disposable where they weren’t
Not to mention how much more brutish he is; ignited his swords in front of a hierarch, displaying a lack of care of others around him as well as just a constant aura of anger, as opposed to Thel who was a lot more cool and collected, only showing a full burst of anger once, but even that was directed and it wasn’t long before he was able to pull himself back together and think of a plan to get him out of his predicament.
Any diversity between alien characters of the same species is a good thing, it shows a diverse community, but it’s even better when it’s that of a specific role. It helps him stand out as a character more, rather than just blending with the Arbiter we already know and tend to think of.
Igniting*
This arbiter is ruthless.
I nearly forgot this dude was in Halo Wars
He's not the same one from halo 2 or halo 5
This one is an older one
he's Ripa Moramee and not Thel Vadam
@@sayaka1408 yea thel is nice while ripa is mean
@@ChakLok ha thel being "nice"
@@ChakLok If I remember correctly, thel was responsible for 3% of the human casualties before he realized what he was doing is wrong.
I love how they just dump them over the side lol
I always loved the chonk spartan that threw arby away
It’s a good thing this guy wasn’t Thel Vadam, though I am curious on what this Elite did to become Arbiter.
3:48 what did bro do?💀
Someone has to be Ripa’s fleshy sandbag for bad news. Dude has a short fuse. :’)
6:30 can we also note how if the arbiter armor was provided with proper shielding the knife would have bounced off or atleast gone far less deep, just being a skin deep implalement that would maybe cause him to toss him to make distance but he wouldnt stumble and would maintain control of the fight (assuming the shielding isnt restricted to only activate against high velocity weapons, saying they use energy swords and pikes though i doubt it. (and most plasma weapons arent much faater than a knife attack anyways, maybe 2 to 3x as fast at most) so low velocity always active shielding makes more sense + it activating when you barely get tapped by vehicles or hit the ground hard (same for enemies even in cutscenes) shows its a always active low velocity shield. if im correct covenant shielding reactivly appears before contact whereas the unsc shields are always active and thus are less energy efficent and drain faster.
Thel Vadam (the latest Arbiter) would have been displeased with this. *facepalm*
Tbh he probably would be that fact he was trying to evil monologue and not just finish it but karma got him but in the lore he was always known as a brash cocky Sangheili so his downfall dying like this isn't suprising to the lore nuts
