Subject: Glasslands, hefty issue. Is Halsey invulnerable?

Now, this question might seem bat--blam!- stupid. I know that.

But, in Glasslands Lucy punches Halsey with enough force to send a shockwave up her arm (Lucy's arm), and that's a blow to the face. Then Halsey gets back up with nothing more then a bloodied nose.

How the heck can Halsey survive a blow like that from a spartan to the face?

No, ExcessiveFaun6 is not my real gamertag.

Cortana: The message just repeats. "Regret, Regret, Regret."
Miranda: Any idea what it means?
Sgt. Johnson: Dear Humanity... we regret being alien bastards. We regret coming to Earth. And we most definitely regret that the Corps just blew up our raggedy-ass fleet!
Marines: Hoo-rah!

That's a good point. I feel like Halsey would need jaw reconstruction surgery after that. Maybe just a little too much artistic liberty?

I thought it was hilarious. Traviss didn't fully get what an Spartan III was, I think.

She should have looked like this after Lucy hit her...

Oh god, I lol'd so hard. Especially when I read the hyperlink in the context of the scene taking place.

Glory and fame, blood is our name!
Souls full of thunder, hearts of steel!
Killers of men, a warrior's friend!
Sworn to avenge our fallen brothers!
Sons of the gods, today we shall die.
Open Valhalla's door!
Let the battle begin, with swords in the wind! Hail Gods of War!

See, this is why I don't want to get Glasslands. It's like she's completely ignored the canon. And not just here.

Oh and apparently Naomi one shot killed a brute with a punch, breaking it's spine. Flies in the face of Master Chief having great trouble, and Fred not wanting to even chance getting in hand to hand with brutes huh?

Im going to cop out with Mark VII being involved.

she didn't even explain the sphere whatsoever.

She probably worked on a version of the weapon X project. Trying to give Spartans adamantium bones and claws and she tested it on herself.

Am I supposed to write something funny here?

Or the Terminator...

OT: Quite stupid IMO. Did anyone read the book before it was published?

  • 12.05.2011 12:05 PM PDT

Im not positive, but I think she punched her straight to the nose, which did break obviously. I do not believe SPI armor gives you the strength MJOLNIR does (was she wearing it? Can't remember).

That said, her surviving that with only a broken nose was the only thing I thought was seriously stupid. If a Spartan punches you, odds are you're completely boned no matter what you do, armor or no armor. I know the ODST's John fought took a few blows before going down, but they're trained to take punishment, Halsey's an aging woman.

Or are SIII's actually physically inferior to SII's?

We should know better, because we are better.

Apparently a strong punch to the area right between your eyes or the area right below your nose can be fatal, on account of head trauma. The fact that Halsey still has her jaw attached is astonishing.

But Noble 6 took out the shields of a Zealot and staggered him in one punch with his bare hands while laying on the floor.

This is on Travis.

A blow right to the nose can send that little bit of bone straight into the brain no? I'd think even with a bad angle enough force would do it.

  • 12.05.2011 1:05 PM PDT

Hahaha, this is so true. Seriously, when I read Lucy punched her in the face I thought. "Oh blam! Halsey will be either dead or in comma! This is going to a HUGE PLOT TWIST! Awesome!"

...And then she stands up.

Me = Mindblown

He had Mark 5.

The Spartans are hella strong even without the armor.

Be that as it may, 1 shoulder-barge to kill such a high-ranking Elite is just ridiculous.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure once Six is on his back, he only staggers/pushes back elites. No kills then.

No, he took the shields down, you can see the electric bits coming out.
