My vote is for the Didact. His X-factors surpass Abeloth's greatly. The Prometheans, while being artificial intelligence, are smart and capable of adapting to almost any tactical situtaion. Their loyalty to the Didact is unquestionable, unlike Abeloth's sith. The Mantle's approach is one of the most powerful Forerunner ships. It took sustained fire from the entire UNSC homefleet with almost no noticable damage. Every soldier that Abeloth loses to the Composer becomes one of the Didact's prometheans, replacing any forces lost in battle while depleting the Abeloth's. While Abeloth may be older, Didact has tens of thousands of years of military experience and defeated the ancient Human-Prophet alliance, who were considered to be the technological equals of the Forerunners.
