User blog comment:Evil117/ Legion vs Boss/@comment-4484220-20130514000916

This is a tough one for me. Hopefully the answer will come after I've compared edges, so let's get down to it.


 * Close range: The butts of guns can sometimes make nice substitutes for melee weapons, but it doesn't beat the real thing. Viroblades were actually meant for melee. Legion's close range weapon mostly deals blunt damage, whereas Boss has serious slashing damage here. My edge: BOSS


 * Mid range: The M-Avernger assault rifle is nice if you're just firing it in bursts, but if you want to really do some rapid fire, then it loses its accuracy. The DC-17 m blaster rifle attachment, on the other hand, maintains its accuracy much better. Not to mention that each magazine (magazine, not clip. Sith would really bite your head of if he were still here) holds more ammo than the M-Avenger. My edge: BOSS


 * Long range: The M-92 Mantis sounds powerful, but it is very limited in rate of fire, and ammo. Only three shots and a required reload in between each is inferior to a gun that not only has five shots per magazine, but also has a decent rate of fire, for a sniper rifle. My edge: BOSS


 * Side-arm: The M-3 Predator should do some decent damge, and its ammo should hold up for a while. It also has a decent rate of fire. The DC-15s appears to do better damage, but if it's fired too rapidly, then its firepower can become limited, which may be costly in the heat of battle. Nonetheless, if its firepowers is used in wise spurts, as I'm sure Boss is experienced in doing, it can last indefinitely. My edge: EVEN


 * Explosive: Frag grenades need to be pulled out, activated, and tossed, during which the warrior tossing it is more vulnerable in the situation. Unlike the Boss' grenade launcher which automatically shoots grenades at a fixed distance. My edge: BOSS

DEADLIEST WARRIOR: BOSS

I'm not a huge expert on this, so I apologize if this isn't the best vote, but Evil looks like he could do with some votes. Both of these warriors are nearly even when it comes to experience, training, and tactics. Legion does have a bit of an advantage, but I wouldn't say it's a major victory, because I'm sure he's put tactics to use during his time as leader of Delta Squad, and has over ten years of experience.

With that, the main thing this comes down to is who packs the biggest firepower, and who can take the biggest beating, which is what makes Boss shine here. As stated above, Boss takes almost all the edges, which is part of why he takes this. For the purposes of this battle, I will assume that their energy shield barriers are even. Beyond that, both warriors do have some metal that will protect them from some level of fire power. I'm going to give the edge to Boss here because his entire body is covered by armor, as opposed to Legion who has some parts of his body exposed to a greater extent than others. Not that some parts of his body won't hold up better than Boss' armor, but there are also some places, quite discernable at first glance, that are much more open to being damaged by weapons than other parts of his body.

It is this combonation of more thorough physical armor, and a superior arsenal that gives this fight to Boss in my opinion.
