Correct. They scale vastly above some of the finest Tier 2 weapons in the Norse side of things (They scale above even Mjolnir and Leviathan Axe) even in their most rudimentary and rusted-to-shit form, and they have magic so potent that they can light up in Helheim where nothing else in the Norse Pantheon can, not even Muspelheim's fire.
Kratos having a Rage Boost that can literally outdo time-stop with sheer speed as per WoG? And also Kratos having the Oath Stone of Orkos that can leave behind duplicates. He doesn't need to pull that one out that far to operate it much like Orkos.
Kratos can just shoot those lightning blasts if he so chooses to. Lightning of Zeus isn't solely AoE.
Source? Did Kratos just got infinite speed with a rage boost or is it just a time stop resistence feat? Even if doesn't pull out the amulet that far,raiden at that moment is still more likely to hit and cut the thing even before the stone of orkos could replace him with a shadow because of his speed adv,a cybernetic AI that gives analytical prediction,shows up the enemies weak spots,where to hit to disarm then more easily, how to counter their next attacks and the fact that raiden is more skilled then this version of Kratos(Kratos in this fight is very early in his journey and he doesn't get those insane skill feats later on where he defeats and outskills the greek gods in combat)
That would actually make it more easier for him to dodge because i'ts a bolt,instead of a AOE because of the points that i'm bring up above.
Time stop resistance feat but WoG says it was through sheer speed and rage, and Castor and Pollux initially toying with him until they got serious and still lost anyway.
Oath Stone of Orkos isn't a shadow, it's a literal clone that fights for him, alongside him. Kratos need only touch it to activate it.
I mean, Raiden would have to see him doing those attacks first. Kratos has been known to pull such tricks off without them even noticing in plain sight, seeing as how Kratos tricked Alecto into believing he would attack her, forcing her to dodge, when in fact he was only aiming to steal the Eyes of Truth from her.
Kratos gains his skill feats by GOW1's beginning.
Not necessarily, Kratos gains bolts in GOW1, in Ascension he shoots the bolts with his Blades of Chaos, good luck cutting that.
There's also this to consider.
Point about covers this.
This is Ripper Mode raiden who is auto-bloodlusted he would not play around like so many that perished against kratos did and give no opportunity to pull out his shit before he cuts him off, plus his AI was able to defend him against a Armstrong fake out before, when he tried to attack him while he was busy cutting off some shit that he threw at him.
Bolts of Zeus and AOE thunder of Zeus is not thought based, they need a gesture for Kratos to activate and in that delay of time Raiden would had already cut him with Blade mode or Gtfo away with his speed.
No, i'm don't think thats how it works, skill feats of the protagonist scale alongside as the narrative progresses, Kratos becomes much better at fighting with each foe(those foes being stronger and more skilled then the ones before then) he defeats in his progress.Kratos with his mindset and tatics from the beginning of his story are not equal to when fought Zeus and the other gods in GOW 3.
Doesn't take long to kick in, mere seconds.
Still magic that Raiden wouldn't be able to fully analyze until after it's already been used.
Kratos in Rage Mode also becomes auto-bloodlusted and can literally power through most of the hax that he's shown being Resistant against, and he even gets a greater power boost as a result.
Kratos would normally use them as a fall-back method to gain range between them.
Incorrect, Kratos was already one of the finest battle tacticians the day he rose to the ranks of the Spartans, it's what allowed him to become the youngest general in Spartan history. The only thing he really lacked was the Olympian strength the other gods possessed. Without that he'd have no chance in hell against the other gods regardless of his versatility in combat and with weapons.
Ascension Kratos doesn't necessarily exist as a key anymore. It's all Demigod now.
Actually, not even that. If it doesn't change tiers, it's not allowed to single out versions if it means getting rid of other equipment.
Medusa's head is too slow to maintain perfect aim and to petrify quickly enough, and Poseidon's Rage requires his target to be in close proximity to him.
Gorgon heads can do AoE flashesa and Raiden is a CQC fighter.... one single thought of activating the rage and Raiden can be murked.
Oh right, forgot about Gorgon Rage.
Since all of then are fighting in absurd high speeds at the start of the fight, plus Raiden who starts by spamming stat amps, mere seconds would last a lot longer in his perspective, that would give him more time to **** up Kratos over , before he stat checks Raiden with rage boost.BTW Raiden has his own Accelerated Development that can kick in this fight, he was able to cut through Armstrong body before the nanomachines could cover up him in time to block his strikes, before that not even blade+ripper mode 10x speed amp was enough to blitz the nanomachines.
Don't need to, doing the action of pulling out, is enough for the AI to mark Kratos hands or arm joints with a big ass red square indicating >>>PLEASE HIT ME<<<, also the fact that it's a device that even sci-fi tec cannot comprehend would just give in a massive red flag giving him even more reasons for him to not let Kratos activate that thing and cut his arms into pieces before he has any chance to so.
But Kratos in GOW hasn't show to resist or tank anything that has the same ability as the HF blade, who would be completely alien to him because i'ts a futuristic tech that manip quantum bonds to cut through anything like butter.
Here is a small little problem,none of Kratos hacks are thought based or happen on a instant.
Rage Boost is constantly active for Kratos due to his constant nightmares.
Arm joints are protected by Tier 3/2 chains.
Again, his chains and blades are straight up Tier 3/2 in durability. Trying to attack his forearms would spell career suicide for Raiden.
Incorrect. Rage of the Gods, which further amplifies his Rage and Power, is thought based, and temporarily grants him infinite magic. Poseidon's Magic is also thought-based, it's the Magic that propels him into the air, he doesn't do it himself.
Thing is, he does those things with a bit of distance from his enemies.
Poseidon's Rage propels him automatically and the ability itself is activated via thought.
Kratos pretty much has his rage keep him in check from the get-go.
.
You said before the he only gets rage boost after a few seconds and not constantly activated, in all of his other fights Kratos needed a little bit of time to build up his rage and stat stomp his enemies, while Raiden can insta activate Reaper and Blade Mode in the fight.If Kratos was constantly in rage mode he would one shot every enemy that he fights.
He doesn't use poseidon's rage 1v1,but only when he is facing a massive group of enemies,more likely that he would use his other skill,Raiden can easily close the distance and blade mode at the same time he is launched into the air.
The stat amp takes a few seconds to even less depending on whether Kratos wants to go all out, but his actual rage in his mind is constant as per the novels. The rage building up is game mechanics.
That's assuming Kratos will let him get near him before he activates his range-based hax.
Wrong. He used Poseidon's Rage on the Hydra in GoW1 and the Colossus in GoW2 extensively without mercy. Army of Hades is what he'd use for crowd control.
Weapon Summoning for Kratos is thought-based. They automatically appear on his hand as a result, and Oath Stone is contact-based, the moment Kratos touches it, it activates.
If Raiden backs off then Kratos gives in to his Rage and gets the Rage Amp.
Yeah sure, Kratos once his rage kicks in he stat checks, but the argument that i'm trying to make is that he will not get the opportunity to activate it, HF dura negs in a atomic level and Raiden's slashes cover range is absurd, one strike from the blade can inta-kill Kratos, either decapitating him or bisecting him.
I'm was talking about Kratos activating Poseidon's rage or using his artifacts before Raiden or at the same time, wich in this situation he doesn't, Raiden closes the gap and kills him before he even realizing whats going on,if you pointing a gun at the head of a guy with a combat knife who is 10x faster then you would still lose, before your brain could even send eletricity to your body to pull the trigger that mf would had already cut your throat 50 times and you would die.Same logic applies here.
even if Kratos had his reactive evolution here i would doubt that it would save him from a speed blitz, Raiden like i said before has his own Accelerated Development as well, he outspeeded Armstrong Nanomachines wich ones blitzed Blade mode+Ripper mode 10x multiplier before.
Depends on how far the dude with the gun is.
It saved Kratos from Teleportation, Time Stop, Time Slow, Time Age and all that other shit by literally making him faster over the course of the fight so uh...
Were such matches banned? I thought they were allowed.
Kratos is slower my guy in this key my guy.
You missed the point.
From what i got,only if the guy using the amps base speed is slower then his opponent, idk i gonna check out.
I dunno it says he is FTL as well
