It appears that the Legionaries have a medical system in their suits which acts as a pressurized tourniquet that seals wounds or prevent blood loss, and the emergency medic release is located in their helmet that releases the pressure seal and the oil fluid seeps out. <ref> | It appears that the Legionaries have a medical system in their suits which acts as a pressurized tourniquet that seals wounds or prevent blood loss, and the emergency medic release is located in their helmet that releases the pressure seal and the oil fluid seeps out. <ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/on-the-hunt On the Hunt]</ref> | ||

Legionaries are the most common troops found in the [[Cabal]] army and are primarily armed with [[Slug Rifle]]s or, in rare cases, [[Projection Rifle]]s. In battle, they use large numbers and overwhelming firepower to overrun and wipe out their enemies. Due to their heavy armor, they are the largest and most durable basic infantry from all of the enemy races. While this gear makes them appear slow and cumbersome, they are actually able to move quickly around the battlefield thanks to the jump jets built into their armor. Because they often fight in groups and close to each other, they can be quickly felled by area-of-effect weapons and attacks, such as [[Rocket Launcher]]s and grenades. | Legionaries are the most common troops found in the [[Cabal]] army and are primarily armed with [[Slug Rifle]]s or, in rare cases, [[Projection Rifle]]s.

These blades can also be fired at the player, and will explode like a fragmentation grenade a few seconds after making contact with any surface. They typically wield [[Cabal Slug Shotgun]]s, though some Legionnaires continue to wield Slug Rifles. <ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''Game: Console, Activision Blizzard''</ref> | ||
