In Halo 2 and Halo 3, Brutes never had energy shields.
However, in Halo 3, the [i]did[/i] have power armor, but it never sparked when they were shot. So why do they appear to have them now?
My thoughts? Honestly, I think the VISR detects the power armor's energy, so it shows as energy shields. What are your thoughts though?

Brutes do have Energy Shields in Halo 3. The shields go down and they recharge. Just like in Halo 3, ODST uses this feature in addition to the armor breaking off when the shields go down. The shields just resemble the Elite and Spartans shields more.
