This guide is a collection of statistics regarding the different NPCs, weapons, and vehicles present in the game, as well as explanations for how these things interact with each other and how certain elements of the game engine work. Damage Type Vs. Material Type An important aspect of how weapons interact with entities in Halo games that is generally not well explained is how different damage types interact with different material types. Each source of damage in the game has an assigned damage type, and each entity has a material type associated with its model. Take for example, shooting a spartan with a plasma pistol. The plasma pistol does 16 damage per shot, and its damage type is plasma_slow. A spartan's shields are listed as the energy_shield_thin material type, while a spartan's body is listed as hard_metal_thin. Against the energy_shield_thin material type, the plasma_slow damage type has a x1.6 damage multiplier, causing it to do 25.6 damage to the spartan's shields. Now let's say the spartan's shields are down, and the plasma pistol is damaging the spartan's health. Against the hard_metal_thin material, the plasma_slow damage type has a x0.4 multiplier, causing it to only do 6.4 damage to the spartan's health. This is a list of every damage type in the game, with its multipliers against every material in the game listed below it. Also, note, in the weapons and NPC/vehicle sections of this guide, the weapon's damage type and NPC/vehicle material type will be listed, so you can cross-reference it against this section to see how much damage that weapon would do against the entity you are attacking with it.

Health & ShieldsNormal HP: The NPC's base health on Normal, Heroic, and Easy difficulties. This is the amount of damage you must do to their body to kill them after their shields (if any) are depleted. Legendary HP: The NPC's increased health on Legendary difficulty. Normal shield: The strength of the NPC's energy shield on Normal, Heroic, and Easy difficulties. Shields must be depleted before health can be damaged. Legendary shield: The NPC's increased shield strength on Legendary difficulty. Recharge Mechanics (Health & Shields)Body recharge fraction: This determines what portion of lost health an NPC can regenerate. A value of 1 means they can fully regenerate all lost health (like Spartans and ODSTs). A value of 0.25 means they can only regenerate up to 25% of their total health. A value of 0 means they cannot regenerate health at all (like Grunts and Elites). Body recharge delay: The time in seconds an NPC must wait after taking damage before their health begins to regenerate. Body recharge time: The time in seconds it takes for the NPC to complete their health regeneration cycle once it has started. Shield recharge delay: The time in seconds an NPC must wait after taking damage before their energy shield begins to recharge. Shield recharge time: The time in seconds it takes for the NPC's shield to go from empty to fully charged once it has started recharging. Armor & VitalityHelmet vitality fraction: Represents the durability of an NPC's helmet as a fraction of their total HP. For example, a Brute Minor with 100 HP and a Helmet vitality fraction of 0.2 has a helmet with 20 HP (100×0.2). Once the helmet takes this much damage, it will be knocked off, making the NPC vulnerable to headshots. Back armor vitality fraction: Specific to Hunters, this represents the durability of the armor plate on their back. Destroying this plate exposes the flesh underneath, allowing for more damage. Combat & ScoringMelee damage: The amount of damage inflicted by the NPC's standard melee attack. Point value: The base score awarded to the player for killing this NPC in game modes with scoring, such as Campaign Scoring or Firefight. Allowed weapons: The list of weapons this NPC variant can potentially spawn with and use against the player. Allowed equipment: The list of Armor Abilities (like Armor Lock or Active Camo) this NPC can use. Technical Stats (Damage Types)These values determine how different damage types interact with the NPC's body or shield. Model material: This describes the physical properties of the NPC's body or armor. Corresponds with one of the materials listed in the prior section. Shield material: This describes the properties of the energy shield. Corresponds with one of the materials listed in the prior section. NPCs Pt. 1 This section contains information regarding the various NPCs encountered in the campaign. Most of the relevant stats for an enemy are recorded under their particular section.

equipment: Armor Lock Weapons Legend Weapon Stat Legend & ExplanationsThis section breaks down each weapon statistic to help you understand the nuances of Reach's weapons. Core Combat StatsHeadshot enabled: Indicates if the weapon can deal precision damage with a headshot (yes/no). A headshot on an unshielded, un-helmeted enemy is a one-hit kill. Damage per shot: The base damage inflicted by a single projectile. Some weapons, like the shotgun, shoot multiple projectiles in one shot, and other like the assault rifle, have a range of damages that it performs within. Rate of fire (RoF): How many rounds the weapon fires per second, usually for automatic weapons. Some weapons have a low and high RoF, indicating they have an acceleration or "spin-up" period. Fire recovery time: The delay in seconds between each shot for semi-automatic or single-shot weapons. This is the primary factor that determines the weapon's maximum rate of fire. Acceleration/Deceleration time: The time in seconds it takes for an automatic weapon to reach its maximum (high) rate of fire and to slow down back to its base (low) rate of fire, respectively. Ammunition & Magazine (UNSC Weapons)Magazine: The number of rounds a weapon can fire before needing to be reloaded. Initial ammo: The amount of reserve ammunition the weapon has when you first pick it up. Max ammo: The maximum amount of reserve ammunition you can carry for the weapon. Heat & Battery Mechanics (Covenant Weapons)Heat generated per round: The amount of heat each shot adds to the weapon's internal battery. The heat meter is represented as a value from 0 to 1 (or 0% to 100%). Overheat threshold: The heat level (1.0 or 100%) at which the weapon overheats, becoming unusable until it completes a longer, forced cooldown sequence. Heat recovery threshold: The heat level the weapon must cool down to before it can be fired again after you stop shooting (but before it fully overheats). Heat loss per second: The normal rate at which the weapon cools down when you are not firing it. Overheated heat loss per second: The significantly slower rate of cooling that occurs as a penalty after the weapon has fully overheated. Heat venting time: Specific to the Plasma Repeater, this is the time it takes to perform the manual "vent" action, which rapidly cools the weapon down at the cost of being unable to fire. Normal drain rate: The percentage of the total battery consumed per shot (for pistols/rifles) or per second of being active (for the Energy Sword and Gravity Hammer). Charge time: The time in seconds required to charge the weapon (e.g., the Plasma Pistol's EMP blast or the Spartan Laser's beam). Area of Effect (AOE) & ExplosivesDamage per shot (AOE): The damage dealt by the weapon's splash damage in its explosive radius. AOE core radius: The innermost radius of the explosion where the maximum amount of damage is dealt. AOE radius (low) / (high): These values define the damage falloff of the explosion. The low radius is the area where full or high damage is dealt, while the high radius is the maximum extent of the splash effect, where damage is lowest. All radii are measured in "world units." Fuze timer: The time in seconds from when a grenade is thrown to when it detonates. Throw rate: The delay in seconds between consecutive grenade throws. Special Weapon PropertiesSupercombine minimum: The number of needles from a Needler or Needle Rifle that must hit a single target to trigger a supercombine explosion. Damage per shot (supercombine): The damage dealt by the supercombine explosion itself. Damage (attached): The increased damage dealt when a sticky projectile (like a Plasma Grenade or Plasma Launcher round) is attached directly to a target. Melee damage: The damage dealt by a standard swing from a melee weapon. Clang melee damage: The reduced damage dealt when two melee weapons (like an Energy Sword and Gravity Hammer) strike at the same time, resulting in a clang. Technical StatsProjectile type: A technical value that describes the projectile's behavior and how it interacts with different materials. Corresponds to one of the projectile types listed in the first section. Weapons Pt. 1 This section contains information regarding the performance of the different weapons in Halo Reach.

AOE radius (low): 0.75 world units AOE radius (high): 2.25 world units AOE core radius: 0.54 world units Damage: 160 Damage type: explosion_small Vehicles Legend This section breaks down the statistics for the vehicles in Reach, covering both the vehicle's durability and its onboard weaponry. Vehicle Core StatsThese stats relate to the main body and durability of the vehicle itself. Vitality: The total health of the vehicle. When this value reaches zero from sustained damage, the vehicle is destroyed. Point Value / Point Count: The base score awarded to the player for destroying this vehicle in game modes with scoring, like Campaign Scoring or Firefight. Body material: The primary material of the vehicle's chassis, which determines its general resistance to different damage types. Alt material: This indicates that a specific part of the vehicle has different durability properties than the main body, often representing a weak point or a functionally different component. Vehicle Weapon StatsThese stats apply to the weapons mounted on the vehicles. Vitality (Weapon): Some vehicle-mounted weapons, like the Scorpion's cannon or Phantom's chin gun, have their own health pool. This means the weapon can be disabled or destroyed independently of the vehicle itself. Fire recovery time: The delay in seconds between each shot for semi-automatic or single-shot weapons, like a Wraith's mortar or a Gauss Cannon. Rate of fire (RoF): How many rounds the weapon fires per second. Some weapons have a low and high RoF, indicating they have an acceleration or "spin-up" period (e.g., the Warthog Chaingun). Damage per shot: The base damage inflicted by a single projectile from the vehicle's weapon. A range indicates variable damage, often due to the weapon's rate of fire. Shots per fire: The number of projectiles fired in a single burst with one pull of the trigger (e.g., the Rocket Warthog). Damage per shot (AOE): The damage dealt by the weapon's splash damage in its explosive radius, separate from a direct impact. AOE core radius: The innermost radius of an explosion where the maximum amount of damage is dealt. AOE radius (low) / (high): These values define the damage falloff of an explosion. The low radius is the area where full or high damage is dealt, while the high radius is the maximum extent of the splash effect, where damage is lowest. All radii are measured in "world units." Projectile type: A technical value describing the projectile's behavior. Corresponds to one of the projectile types listed in the first section.
