Master Chief vs. T-X

[Guest MarvelFan15]

This is the Terminatrix vs. our very own Master Chief. This is on the "Construct" map. Chief has an Energy sword, Assault Rifle, Flame Thrower, Battle Rifle, Brute Shot, Plamsa Rifle and limitless amounts of frag grenades, as well as Cortana to back him up.

 

The First round features Chief fighting against an unexperienced T-X.

The Second round features Chief fighting against an experienced T-X (meaning she's picked up a variety of skills from fighting multiple Temrinators and humans).

 

Both rounds find each player refreshed, and ready for battle.

 

"FIGHT"

"FIGHT"

I really hate to say it, because it shouldn't have to come to this every time... but Cortana wins with her L33T Haxor Skills...

 

 

Now, if it didn't come to "that"... lets say that Cortana is just moody, and not speaking with the Chief for the fight... then I would say that the Chief would win 80% of the time. He's actually faster than it is, just, if not more agile than the T-X, he reacts just as fast as it, is as strong if not stronger than it, is maybe just a little less durable, and has a decent layout of advanced weapons that could at least disable the T-X.

Okay...let's leave Cortana out of this for the time being.

Are you sure? I'm not doubting the speed part, but the T-X is pretty darn strong. Isn't the Cheif around class 10? I seem to recall Rakai saying that the T-X was at least a class 15-20. It also withstands rocket launchers to the face with no visible damage, and I'm almost certain Cheif is vulnerable to flame throwing weapons (The T-X has a pretty big flamethrower up her arsenal).

 

Still, I'm sure you've planned for this...and I'm eager to hear your response.

[Skirmisher]

Well, it's your fight, she can still be there but not offer any hacking help, if you wanted.

T-X

Speed: 80kmh

Reflex: Computer, ie: Nigh-instantaneous

Sight: Natural, Infrared, Zoom_(?) w/ Retinal Scan

Strength: Unconfirmed, though able to lift and flip small to medium sized vehicles with ease. (Possible several tons or more?)

Durability: Immune to small arms fire, able to withstand a direct RPG hit, survived impact with an H-19 Sikorsky helicopter though sustained moderate to severe damage. Such helicopters weigh 2 to 3 tons, and it was traveling at what looked to be 30 to 40 kph. This would be similar to a Warthog traveling at medium to low speed, which would also presumably do moderate to severe damage to a Spartan.

 

 

Master Chief

Speed: 105kmh

Reflex: Nigh-instantaneous to 20milliseconds

Vision: Natural, Night, HUD Infrared (see quote below), HUD Magnification (2x to 5x zoom)

Strength: Possible 4+ ton lift capacity.

Durability:

and suffered only minor injuries with moderate damage from near detonation of Anti-Tank Missile

 

"The Master Chief only caught a glimpse of the thing... it was so bright his IR sensors overloaded" pg 205 "The Fall of Reach"

 

 

Weapons

The T-X possesses a very strong Plasma Cannon as it's main armament, said to be able to fully destroy a T-1000 in one hit. However there is a Charge time between shots. Most other built in weapons seem inferior to the Flamethrower as it was the first choice rather than the other weapons. As for the Flamethrower note that the UNSC M7057 Defoliant Projector uses a highly volatile Pyrosene-V fuel, IMO this would be much stronger than the small on-board Flamethrower used by the T-X.

This leads to the conclusion that the Master Chief should only be worried about the Plasma Cannon, and the Flamethrower -> only if exposed to many long duration blast of it.

 

As for the Chiefs weapons... The only three that should pose a threat to the T-X would be the Brute Shot, the Plasma Rifle and the Energy Sword. The Brute Shot would due the least damage, though with multiple High Velocity, High Explosive rounds, it would defiantly damage minor systems on the T-X. The Plasma Rifle would be able to hurt the T-X with sustained fire, as it is essentially a scaled down version of the T-X's main weapon. And lastly the Energy Sword... Basically it's a Light Saber, so I see dismemberment for the T-X if he gets his hands on it.

not really, I was just saying that stuff because I was fresh out of the big Starkiller vs Chief debate... not that most isn't true though.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking...

So...they're both very resilient. I'd say that the T-X would have the slight edge though, in durability as well as strength.

A lightsaber is an extremely high-heat energy weapon, which is what gives it its slicing ability. I've never heard of the Energy Sword having high heat capabilities. At least not on the level of a lightsaber.

 

Any evidence to suggest otherwise?

It would still be an interesting fight between the two. Would you mind if I got a battle-analysis form you?

 

Also, how would the T-X fare against an unarmored Brute?

At one time I had access to a scientific diagram (Can't find it though) stating the temperature of various Plasmas, Green was around 6000°C, and Blue around 8000°C, with white being 10,000+°C. The Plasma Sword is magnetically confined Blue/White Plasma, it should have temperatures of maybe 9000°C.

 

For comparison, Iron boils at 2862°C, and Titanium at 3287°C... Hell, even the most heat resistant metal I can find has a boiling point of only 5555°C.

 

 

It would still be an interesting fight between the two. Would you mind if I got a battle-analysis form you?

I'll do one, but not right now, I just got home from Demolishing a very large fireplace, and lugging the stones outside to a pile. I couldn't use a sledge because I wasn't supposed to damage the underlying structure... so it was hammer and chisel, stone by stone... for hours.

 

I'll probably post some time tomorrow.

 

 

Also, how would the T-X fare against an unarmored Brute?

Strength wise I would give it to the Brute... Though not much else, the T-X would win that fight.

Ok, so the Map is Construct

 

Slayer Format with one kill / two matches.

 

The Weapons would be scattered around the map like usual, and the Chief would probably start with only a Battle Rifle, and 2 frags.

 

 

 

The Spawn Point: Chief

Depending on where they spawn the Chief may or may not be able to "Up Grade" his weapon, though he should be able to pick up a second one.

 

If the Chief spawns in the Lower Level he would probably have access to additional ammo for his Rifle, a Spartan Laser, a Missile pod, a Flamethrower, a Mauler and a Brute Shot. Here he would also benefit from cover from the upper levels and has access to three Gravity Lifts to the Uppermost Level. Also there is a Power Drainer located at the base of the Bigger Lift.

 

If he spawns in the Middle Level then the Chief is in the open with relatively little weapons to pick up. It is likely that if he were to spawn here the T-X would easily see him and be able to track him. From here the Chief would either go to the upper level if not under attack, or fall back to the lower level for cover.

 

Between the Levels there is also the ramp leading up to the upper level from the middle level, it has a Brute Shot and provides fairly good cover from the lower areas.

 

The Upper Level would probably be where the fight takes place, and/or ends. There is a large cash of weapons on this level, as well as the Sword and the Sniper Rifle. All three lifts lead to this level and would probably see action. If the Chief spawns here then he has an immediate advantage in the Sword.

 

 

The Spawn Point: T-X

It is unlikely that the inexperienced T-X would pick up and use the weapons in this map, relying only on her on-board weapons. This might not be true for the next battle though, as she would find that a lot of the weapons scattered about would be useful, and that it would allow her to maintain the surprise of her concealed weapons.

 

If she were to spawn in the upper level, then she would have a commanding view of the battlefield below, and would likely be able to spot the Chief if he were in the middle level, as it offers no cover. The first T-X would probably open fire immediately on the Chief in this situation, forcing him into the lower level. The Second T-X would probably try and close the distance first before attacking. If she does not immediately see the Chief then she will clear the level and patrol it since the Grav Lifts lead here.

 

If spawned in the Middle Level then the first T-X would stay put scanning the area until she finds the Chief or is fired upon. The Second T-X would probably travel to the Upper Level unless she spot the Chief.

 

If spawned in the lower level Both versions would clear the lower level before working their way to the upper level.

 

 

Analysis

If the Chief were to spawn in the Lower Level, and the T-X were to spawn in the Upper Level then it is unlikely that battle will happen immediately. The Chief may opt to pick up the Brute Shot as a secondary weapon before moving up to the Middle Level.

 

Here is where the Battle will probably start, if the T-X notices the Chief moving through the Middle Level then she would attack and jump down in chase. If the Chief were to be closer to the Ramp up the the Upper Level he would take that, but if not he would fall back to the Lower Level. Here is also where he would see that the T-X is immune to his Battle Rifle/Assault Rifle fire, and would switch out for the Brute Shot. As well, that the T-X's Plasma Cannon is exceptionally powerful.

 

If the Chief went to the Upper Level then the T-X may opt for the smaller purple Grav Lift's on the Middle Level in order to beat him there. This would mean that the Chief would probably encounter the T-X just as he reaches the Upper Level, and a running battle would take place around the ring, as the T-X attempts to close the distance and the Chief falls back to cover. This would continue for the twelve grenade shots that the Chief has in the Brute Shot before he needs to find another weapon. That initial battle would probably damage the T-X slightly. From here the Chief would attempt to find another Weapon, something that's stronger than the Brute shot. He would then find the Sword, and then fall back to the under level that leads out to the catwalk. There with the Sword he wins with an ambush.

 

Though if the Chief opted to fall back to the Lower Level instead, he has the advantage in that either he makes it to the lifts ahead of the T-X (which would lead back to that running battle in the last paragraph) or that the T-X looses him by dropping to the Lower Levels first and causing the Chief to back track to his previous plan to going to the upper level by foot (since his motion sensor can track the T-X without giving his position away).

 

This means that the Chief can reach the upper level fast while the T-X clears the Lower Level. Since the Chief now knows that his Rifle is of no use, he will ditch is for heavier weapons, the only one that's left on the Upper Level would be the Sword, only this time he would have the time to make a plan.

 

 

End Game

All the other spawn scenarios would be fairly similar, and I see the Chief winning over the T-X with a good Sword hit. As well, I really don't see the T-X's Plasma Cannon being that effective in this fight, as it requires at least a six second charge time. This battle will be moving too fast, with too much cover for that weapon to be used. That's almost twice as bad as the Spartan Laser, and although it might be just as powerful as that, it's plasma blasts seem to only travel as fast as, or just a little faster than standard Covenant Plasma from rifles and cannons.

Sweet!

 

Skrimisher, you are a genius.
