So-Pro THE WARRIOR's Edges

Pistol Edge Garrus Vakarian: Much like Beastman said the Paladin has a lot more firepower behind each shot meaning that it will easily be able to get through Boba's armor more faster where the shield and armor combo of Garrus's will make it hard for the Wrist Blaster is a bit more of a backup weapon and while it will have the element of surprise at the beginning once it is discovered Garrus will know what to expect and as it being a backup weapon won't have much damage at the M-77.

Rifles Edge Even:  Again like Beastman both of the guns pack the range, and firepower to take down the target, the EE-3 having the range edge, but the M-15 packing a bit more firepower behind each burst of fire.

Sniper Edge Garrus Vakarian: Okay just because Boba's Snipers gun holds a larger magazin doesn't mean anything. Garrus makes every single one of his shots count when he uses the M-92 Mantis being able to take down foe after foe after foe without missing a single shot. Being a better sniper he will aim for points of weaknesses in Boba's armor or will take note of the jetpack and shoot the jetpack thus damaging it and causing it to get out of control like all jetpacks do when they get damaged.

Powerhouse Edge Boba Fett: While the Concussive Shot is deadly and can down Boba enough time for Garrus to finish him off the DXR is an insta-kill weapon with a much better range then the Concussive Shot.

Explosives Edge Even: Both of them have their uses and can be used to set up for a trap and both have powerful blast radius's that will take out their target or severly injure them.

Special Edge Garrus Vakarian: Ohhh yeah listen RVD I went onto the Mass Effect wikia itself to check out the Overload ability and well guess what it CAN damage the Jetpack.

Examples:


 * "but will also cause any unshielded enemies using flamethrowers to explode"

aaaannnnnddddd


 * "It can also be used on explosive containers to make them detonate"

Yeah last time I checked these two things up there have one thing in common with the Jetpack. And that they use fuel. Meaning that once Garrus uses the Overload on the jetpack it will go 'KABOOMMM!!!! 'and Boba with it. Even then the Jetpack can be used against it's user as well. How many times have we seen a jetpack get shot and then it goes out of control and kills it's user by say exploding on them or making them crash and explode. The Jetpack is a hazard to the user itself and also another note it fires only ONE shot meaning that it will be a useless weapon where as the Overload can be continuously used to stun Boba as well. I think with all of this in mind the Overload CAN be used to destroy the jetpack and along with it Boba as well.

X-Factors Edge Boba Fett Okay Boba stilll has the higer average no matter what but like Beast I highly disagree with the X-Factor rating for Garrus on the X-Factors of Combat Experience. I'm not saying that Garrus should get the edge...but a 84!!! That is way to low, it should be a bit more closer to Boba at least. He has faced many, many powerful foes over the course of his career as well. He served in the Turian Military starting at the age of 15, then went on to C-Sec and then he joins Shepard's Crew, and then etc.. He has gone up against...well let's look shall we.

Mass Effect 1


 * A Rogue Spectre


 * A Army of Geth


 * Krogan Clones


 * Asari Commandos


 * Rachni


 * An Asari Matriarch


 * Pirates and Thugs

Mass Effect 2


 * THREE of the Most Powerful and Succesful Mercenary Groups (Blue Suns, Eclipse and ah ohh the Blood Pack made up of KROGANS and Vorcha. And was able to single handedly handle these three groups for how long (till Shepard's Arrival))


 * The Collectors

Mass Effect 3


 * Cerberus


 * AND Finally THE REAPERS!!!

How exactly aren't these kinds of foes about equally as deadly as what Boba has gone up against? The Combat Experience should be a but higher at least but not a 84.

And I also disagree with the Intelligence/Tactics one as well. As quoted from the ME wikia "Shepard is advised to recruit a tactical genius and infiltrator" keyword tactical genius. Why because he was for how long waging a small man war on the three most powerful and successful Gangs of OMEGA which is the place for Criminals doing successful attacks on these gangs and in the end forcing them to have to form together just to take him down. Again a little underrating for Garrus here.

The Deadliest Warrior.....

GARRUS VAKARIAN

WIth all of this while it will be extremely close battle Garrus will be able to pull out of this battle in the end. He brings in a bit more better marksmanship skills then Boba does giving him a better edge in the range weapons department. Garrus will be able to exploit some weak points in Boba's armor if he finds them and will also be able to exploit the Jetpack against Boba as well. Once he sees Boba using his Jetpack Garrus will easily be able to exploit that to his advantage either shooting the jetpack with his sniper rifle which will cause it to loose control and bring Boba down to the ground level or cause it to explode and end the battle instantly. Or he can use his Overload ability the same way without wasting any ammo and well KABOOM. Garrus doesn't have to worry about any of his weapons turning on him where as the Jetpack will be the end of Boba. Even if Boba somehow survives he will have to get to where Garrus is hold up and considering Garrus's sniper skills won't happen. Garrus will exploit Boba's weapons and weaknesses to his advantage and hold his own against Boba having fouht enemies just like Boba or more powerful then Boba and will win.
