The Kig Yar (Jackal) Explained | Pirates, Snipers, Skirmishers, and shield wielders | Halo CE-5 Lore 

Hey Roanoke gaming have you ever heard of the game rage it's pretty cool I think you should do lore videos on it

Robert Miller I have heard of rage, haven't played too much, what is it about?

Roanoke Gaming basically rage is set 106 + years into the future and you are an ark survivor from the Eden project to save part of man from a dino caliber asteroid and freeze the inhabitants for a long time and when you come out you find the wasteland a savage place where murderous bandit clans rule and small towns struggle to survive and there are also mutants but they go down with one shot gun blast sooo. And,also authority who are like the tyrannical cops of the waste land and you fight them the mutants and bandits while you try to help them and survive at the same time so yeah I'm playing it now and I like it

I actually have Rage, I will have to play this, give me a few days to see if theres any good lore to pick up! thanks for the suggestion bro, Ill start playing through tomorrow

Roanoke Gaming great sounds good

Callum Sterland in Canon Jackals have a female lead society

Love the Jurassic Park reference!

@@ashaachampong9049 Seeexy....

Eh. Not really velociraptor. They’re more like those tiny ones that kill that girl in 3.

@@rommdan2716 N o .

Not at all. Genetic difference isn't that simple.

@@samuelbishop3316 Kinda is though

117 likes? Nice!

Couldn’t get close enough.

Strength build always #tankoverrouge

Yeah get that uchikatana build outta here

What if you do both?

@@randomheadshot4291 Then you are a Spartan

@@RoanokeGaming I’m a dex fan for life

But hey if worst comes to worst...May be your only option!

Roanoke Gaming yep Kig Yars hate Humans so surrender equals suffering. better to fall like Roman soldier does with honour

I'd imagine it be like going up against a mutant emu

@@Te0L0ser You mean a Moa?

thanks man! I hope you enjoyed the subspecies breakdown about these guys!

Roanoke Gaming oh definitely I like how you went into why the original kig Yar we see were less muscular being because they were likely space born considering high charity compared to the new ones more likely planet born since the lack or high charity, btw how long have you been on RU-vid I swear I remember your username from watching your videos a year or so back but I can't load anything past 6 months ago it seems

gotta love the biological aspects of species in games, its my favorite part! I actually started my channel 5.5 months ago! it has grown quite well over the last few days!

Roanoke Gaming I watched you with an older account I swear there's been a Roanoke gaming before then ok something my only question is if you'll do a lore o the ship of your namesake the CMS Roanoke from ds3

That's a good idea, I hadn't thought of that, I planned on eventually doing some lore on the Soveign Colonies so I will definitely be covering the Roanoke haha

Lmao

If the covenant were to see this joke, i bet they would defy their gods.

😂😂

The hunters can take the most, the prophets the least

They looked pretty cool IMO

I did too. They looked very menacing. But they were also pretty deadly in numbers. Especially in legendary

CrazyJay 78910 yep me and 40 marines [ saved some from Elites] we went up against Jackals[ skirmishers] about 20 of them. 5 Jackals fell. the rest completely wiped out the marines. last Marine was knocked into a Tree and limped away only to fall down in the water.

@@CrazyJay-sn6ri come on stay still-me in fire fight

Or Extra terrestrial Avian Thieves

Yeah that works lol

Also pretty neato that they've learned to speak some english in Halo 5

Ive always found interesting that in wars, people learn to shout obscenities at each other in the native language of the enemy. Hatred: the great learner of dialects haha

Andre W. They’ve Pirates. Currently in the modern Halo era, Kig Yar board cargo ships constantly. They’re a threat to human trade commerce.

Thanks bro! I am glad you liked the video!

While they were in the covenant, those who owned ships where basically privateers, and on their home world they were essentially a matriarchal pirate society.

For sure! Show that dinosaur whos boss

T'vaoans are named after their homeworld, which is an asteroid named T'vao. So I think it's more like tih-vah-oh-an

Further down the list I have a video on the Lekgolo if you would like to watch it! the Grunts are the next I am covering concerning covenant!

Clark Dauphin their are about 5ft10 to 6ft grunts are 5ft 7

@@ashaachampong9049 6'3 actually dunno, maybe they seem small because you are playing as a 7'2 supersoldier?

Fuck...i hate this phone

Yeah with its helmet on lol

@@LAV-III wait, how would it's helmet aid in using their jaws to snap your neck?

@@valdatnergigante3439 I remember in halo 4 we saw a jackal kill a scientist by biting his neck but the jackal had his helmet on so he couldn't have bitten him

@@LAV-III nah, of course the Jackal could bite without it's helmet, just saying

Yep from the earthquake room. I liked the vid for that clip alone lol

You'd die

Glad you liked it bro! I also cover gears of war, Dead space, Metro, so if youve got a suggestion for anything, Im always open to suggestions!

Roanoke Gaming I was going to suggest covering the hunter but I saw you already did that! But one thought I had while watching was how similar the Lekgolo are to ant colony's! Similar to how you compared the jackals to birds/dinosaurs I would love to see what may have inspired the creation of enemies! Such detail is what gave halo its origional following and in my opinion the lack of it is what is killing the game. They focus on gun play and game modes and less on detail. Who said one player games are dead? Breath of the wild is amazing! I feel in the newer halos the campaign simply pushes you along a storyline where in the previous games they emersed you in the world. I remember distinctly the library from combat evolved. An endless maze of flood and limited ammo really put you in a state of panic and unease by the time you teleported out of the library it was so liberating. Funny thing is i remember hating it. I guess its like a fine wine or aged cheese, a flavor of game design that is lost on the developers today.

its interesting how as you get older things start to look better, I can honestly say though, with the new halo games, they wont be remembered well lol the old games had such a deep lore and it made it awesome. Maybe halo 6 will correct the path!

Roanoke Gaming fingers crossed!

Thanks for the compliment bro! Next up for halo, probably the unggoy

glad you like the content bro!

Did you know that probably due to your name, your comments also get held for review? Lol but I am glad you liked the video man!

I had no idea lol

that youtube sorting algorithm hard at work haha

Indeed I have bro! It was the first clip of the video 🤣 and the channel is growing, it's been awesome!

You better believe it

yaaaaahhhh my grenade skill isnt the best ALTHOUGH, I forget which video it is but I nail a triple kill with a blind throw, I believe its at the end of the sangheili video, but thanks for subbing bro! glad you are enjoying the videos!

Glad you like it man!

glad you like the video bro!

Hell yeah. Love lore vids but with this being more biology its an amazing new twist!

Thanks bro! even more reason to to learn metric haha

Roanoke Gaming wow you answer fast! You are also the only youtuber that has answered my comments. Your awesome!

THE CHILDREN haha

Yes, there are 3 different sub species

I thought it was root-ee-an

Up next I am covering the stalker from dead space!

thanks for the sub bro! I am glad you enjoyed the video!

Well thats good to hear!

@@RoanokeGaming love your videos man! Thank you.

that is pretty cool! unfortunately there may be a few consequences

nep poleon No our bones have marrow in the centre to give them more support, whereas bird bones (as far as I know) are literally hollow, sacrificing structural strength for a lower density so that they can fly easier

The actual Term "Theory" isn't like a hypothesis, its about one step below a scientific law which typically means it is 99% correct, but there is room for deviation, now if it were the hypothesis of evolution, that would be a whole different story

Also supported by logic.

haha it happens to the best of us!

Mac Russell jackal is 5ft 10 to 6ft in height. you would be defeated and shamed

I also remembered that time when a small amount of pirates broke an elite's leg with ease and had caught a ONI related person, killed multiple rivalpirates including brutes, and somehow would be killed by a grunt so long as it was the mike tyson of grunts.

He is mistaken alot here

Hollow bone does not mean its weak. Dinosaur has hollow bones as well and those thing are far from st can be shattered easily :))

People seem to associate "primitive" with negativity for some reason, but really, its just a previous version of itself! and excellent! we can always use some more scientists in the world haha

very true!

exactly, don't cut your hand on their teeth tho, space AIDS

probably don't really understand what they are capable of

I need to start asking "Who Knows" about my future haha

glad you liked it anyways!

Dominic Aspden really? They said that was the conversion rate... hmmm may need to look into that some more and see what happened

if you kicked straight down on its...version of a femur, you would definitely crack that thing. Length of bones has alot to do with it as well!

well for the most part, grunts could fight the covenant and do fairly well as long as they werent worried about their homeworld being glassed. Grunts are pretty strong, just not too intelligent but only because they arnt schooled in any way

Im talking more about a 1v1 fight rather than a whole raceVrace thing. in that one clip where the jackal is bullying the grunt by stealing its toy or whatever it is. I feel like the grunt could have easily just pulled its legs out from under it and beat its face in. Just by judging from the 2 videos the grunts seem to be tougher and stronger. Though I guess the jackals would out speed them easily.

Roanoke Gaming Grunts are intelligent just they took capitalism to far and ruined their planet like us humans are doing.

Are you referencing that Elite that went rocketing away? lol

Xaq Likes to Doodle all explosive shot weapons make every speices do that

a reptilian monster??

Heck Yeah

My money is on them tasting like chicken, which is good news considering your user name!

Roanoke Gaming nope their reptiles like Elites

If they do in fact taste like chicken that would almost be cannibalism but far away enough that I don't have to worry.

Chicken Nuggerinos you are evil

I'm aware

I think they are equal in some ways, but the spartans themselves can go hand to hand with highly trained elites and come out victorious. They are close but I think the spartans have the edge

Roanoke Gaming IDK lore wise the og spartan ii’s numbering only 30 something and were highly feared by, and effective against, the covenant, which numbered in the hundreds of billions. Seeing how a spartan in full mjolnir armor cost about the same as a small space ship, that seems like too small of a trade off for something that only slightly beats out a relatively standard enemy combatant like an elite. I think the difference in combat effectiveness between the two is pretty substantial.

Tactically I would say the Elite Zealots, Commanders, Generals and Spec op ultras are equal to spartans. The lower ranks may as well be grunts... Hand to Hand combat spartans are designed to fight in elites weight class of any type, when it comes to fist fighting Spartans win , sword fighting Elites win but there have been many times where elites have lost even when Spartans had nothing and an elite had a sword.

High ranking Elites would probably have a huge chance of killing a spartan, the spartan would generally come out victorious due to their training though. The only Sangheili known to be SP II level are the arbiters though.
