Worth doing in pursuit of as accurate a figure as possible, but what is the energy figure for ionization of water?
I think a scan of WOG somewhere, gimme a sec
That Fireteam Majestic Feat looks like one hell of an outlier if they were actually within it.
They left out the previous page, where the Spartans ejected the engine into space before it went off. Which is why there's a big hole at the back of the ship and the room they were in was still (partially) intact.
It's all moot anyway because I'm pretty sure it's not possible to calculate this. Besides, some calculations I've made have been accepted.
You are welcome to start now by writing it out in a blog, get some of the work done ahead of time.
I've never figured out how to actually make a blog of my own.
It's as simple as clicking on the Blog part of your fandom profile and pressing "Create new blog". I have made profiles before a long time ago.
Once we get those feats from Legends looked at then these will be even more consistent.
I also may have something for the Scorpion Cannon and the SPINKR. Both can fragment those Covenant deployable watchtowers in 1 shot, and I plan to calculate the volume and mass of those towers tonight actually.
I actually wrote concerns for the Fuel Rod Destroying the Phantom, with grenades being a maybe. 8-B Spartan Laser is looking good though.
Maybe we can get something from the Scarabs too, I think I recall one utterly obliterating some vehicles or some structures at one point. There's also the fact that these things can fall out of the sky completely unharmed in both Halo 3 and Halo Wars 2 yet can be damaged by heavy weapons like Scorpions, SPINKRs, Spartan Lasers, Hornet missiles, Fuel Rod Cannons, Banshee Bombs, etc.
Scarabs are already 8-A in AP if I remember correctly.
We don't have a profile for them and I don't remember where their rating comes from, especially since it could even be outdated.
You're right, Scarabs should share the Hunter's profile, albeit with one of those tabbers to seperate them.
Aside from our back and fourth on the blog, I've been busy since you last posted here and you missed all of the fun.
Wait, didn't Chief backhand one of these at one point?
He did, and took its close explosion. I am recalculating the Longsword/Scorpion missiles based off of the original cutscene. My instincts tell me my initial calculation is heavily wanked, so I am tempering it as best as I can.
You already had a look at the phantom stuff but that same terminal shows the Fuel Rod rounds making huge explosions next to the skyscrapers of High Chairty
MC has like, a couple examples of tanking Fuel Rod Gun shots. The Halo 3 prequel comic even has him surviving six Hunter Assault Cannons firing directly at him. So unless you're dismissing those as outliers then the shields would have to be bumped up.
Yes
The Fuel Rod calc was pointed out to be somewhat iffy, as it's not clear if it's total destruction, or obliterating a fuel source. Though the destroyed Phantom doesn't have the signature purpleish flames that Covenant vessels emit when destroyed.
If you mean the Scorpion missile being comparable to Longsword missiles and MC taking a close blast sure, as for the missiles themselves I cannot agree. Longsword missiles have no anti feats, and are made for combat against Covenant Corvettes, armored tanks, Seraphs, etc. The missile would've OHK'd MC if it hit.
No like, they directly strike him multiple times. Even in the worst case situation he's receiving like >20% of the total energy.
You are right, Spartans are pretty consistent in surviving these, I am just following what DDM has told me about tanking thermal weapons which seems sound mathematically and logically.
Bingo, SPI is not comparable to Mjolnir at all.
I would need to see a scan of Williams doing this, part of me doubts we are remembering parts of Ghosts of Onyx right. But if this did happen in SPI armor, and especially unarmored it's an outlier as there is literally nothing suggesting Unarmored Spartans are on that level and it goes against what the verse has established.
He probably won't respond given his retirement years back combined with not being very active as of late, but I'll ping @Soldier_Blue in case he may remember details.
Thank you for helping out!
Nah Will just died there.
That's pretty much the entire premise of John's character. He really was never intended to be seen as much stronger, faster, tougher, or smarter than average Spartan-II's and the only reason he's still alive is pure dumb luck combined with sheer willpower. But he survives stuff that usually kills Spartans outright or in more extreme examples, there tends to be surprise last second plot twists such as a Bubble Shield happening to just mysteriously appear at the last second or in Halo 4's case, it's confirmed in a combination of Halo 5 statement and some books that Cortana simply managed to transport him to safety at the last second to avoid the Havok Nuke.
