20. dinosaur
A nickname commonly used in Halo 2 for the covenant elite. Noobs, nubs, modders, and players that just like to mess around are usually the ones most often the ones who play as a dinosaur. The covenant elite i called a dinosaur because: 1. It has a big head, making it easier to snipe in most cases. 2. When it is killed or wounded it makes a loud dinosaur-like yell. 3. It has big feat. 4. It has sharp teeth. 5. It has a wider body figure, making it easier to shoot. 6. It has dinosaur-like hands. Modders on Xbox Live sometimes use the dinosaur to fly across the map and spawn kill to raise their rankings in matchmaking, or be fun (or just plain annoying) in custom/arranged games. The dinosaur in the campaign mode can vary in difficulty to kill depending on the set difficulty but are usually harder to beat than drones, hunters, grunts, jackels, and brutes. *SPOILER* In the Halo 2 campaign the elites and the arbiter join the human side during the ending parts of of the story. There are also heretic elites that appear earlier in the game. There are two types of character skins you can play as in multiplayer: a spartan or a covenant elite AKA the dinosaur. To change the skin go to settings, then go to the profile settings menu, and then go to appearance.
