Subject: Spartan II's, III's, and Noble Team

Generalizations.
Helping idiots hate other idiots since people have existed.

Just discovered something

We know that the 2's got faster and stronger with time;
Kelly's speed increased from 34 to 39 mph as she got older (Fall of Reach).

But we don't know that about the 3's, because they were killed off at such young ages (12 years old). Perhaps if the 3's hadn't been massacred at PROMETHEUS & TORPEDO, they would have lived longer and perhaps further improved from the augmentations.

I retract my above statement. Perhaps if the 3's had been given time to mature, then maybe they would have become just as strong as the 2's.


(Noble team consists of the very best Spartan 3's, and do not represent the average Spartan 3.)

Good summary but you forgot the major differences from the chemical cocktail of augments the SIII's were given...

Basically creating a raging bull of a Spartan when they were near death. Basically like a beserk mode as a final death throw.

That cocktail enables them to keep fighting beyond their maximum limits knowing they are about to die.


The chemical you are referencing was only given to Gamma Company, which altered their frontal lobes to make them more aggressive (page 102, ghosts of onyx)

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

The only evidence we could get would have to come from Noble Team's personal records and/or Tom and Lucy, which are around 19 (I think) by 2552.

We would have to look at their records regarding how they operate without MJOLNIR.
