As such, there is no way to use it in Halo 3 without the use of modding or being a developer. As its name suggests, the Bungie Armor was created as an exclusive unlock for members of the Bungie Studios development team. The Bungie Armor armor permutation is a special unlock in Halo 3. The armor is a possible reference to Bungie's love of flaming ninjas, a recurring joke throughout the studio. Due to the permutation being classed as a chest plate, this means the flames can be employed with any combination of helmet or shoulders. However, it is unique in providing a fire visual effect to the player's head, which can be seen even if the player is equipped with active camouflage. The Bungie Armor is visually identical to the EOD armor's chest piece, save for its fire effect and the absence of the EOD Armor's lights near the shoulders and center.
