Well in a one on one fight a spartan would win. But ODSTs are almost at the same level as spartans while not having any augmentations.

Nope, that is false. To my knowledge, spartans are the best soldiers the UNSC has.

Odst's don't have over-shields, there not equipped for space just having those finger-less gloves means no way, odst's in some case's don't like Spartan's because their better and of an unbeknownst origin. like in Halo Legends they hated that spartan until they saw her face and knew she was a human. also augmentation makes all bodily action x2 of a regular Joe and i don't know yet what age they recruit odst's but for Spartans it's six y.o.a full time forever till the end......No way!! i still like odst's all most as much but sometimes there as sharp as beach balls

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

This isn't even a question...

Spartans are chosen from a specific gene pool; the ones with the best genes are taken and put through torturous training exercises for about a decade, given advanced education, then biologically augmented to make their bones virtually unbreakable, natural night-vision, 300% faster reaction times amongst other things that give them every advantage over a normal human.

Did I mention that they're put into advanced armoured suits with rechargable shields?

And you're asking whether an ODST (a normal human) is better than a Spartan...?

Listen to this guy. ODSTs are like Navy SEALs, but Spartans are augmented super soldiers, there is no contest.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

This.

But, even though ODSTs aren't super soldiers, you have to give them a lot of credit because they pulled a lot of weight during the war.

Relax. I'd rather not piss this thing off.

-Master Chief

Spartans are the super soldiers, not the ODST even though they are a elite squad of marines.

  • 02.11.2012 7:23 PM PDT

Team Deathsquad, Bravo.

ODST's are not super soldiers and there for they are not better then the Spartans . Who would you rather take on a 5 to 6 foot tall guy with little padding or a 7 to 8 foot tall guy ripped as hell with fully working armor suit with energy shields and full trained combat skills? I think I'd rather take the odst. Spartans have fluids put into them to make them bigger and stronger and more devoted to war and on the other hand odst's are just normal men that are trained for certain tactics like night combat or urban warfare. If you put them one on one the spartan would win, hell he would win with a full squad of odst on him.

All thought, ODST's are still boss. Their armor works better then the marines and looks lighter. I'd wear it if I were a spartan for less weight. And their helmet is the most known through out UNSC, besides the Mjolnir helmets.

Odst and spartans aren't even, cause dude if you put master chief against all UNSC , he would pull what the first arbiter did in halo legends. Think about what their flaws are. Bullet proof armor with shields to protect weak spots, HALF A TON SUIT, master training in combat against a little dude who can't even melee in a Mjolnir suit without getting his arm ripped off

  • 03.01.2012 7:12 AM PDT

Sadly, no. But they do look badass.

  • 03.01.2012 9:40 PM PDT

Whereas Spartans have been intensely trained and heavily modified AND wear a huge suit of shielded armour, not to mention heavily trained in warfare from age 6...
ODSTs are just elite marines that go through rather intense training.

  • 03.05.2012 1:34 AM PDT

Remember where it all began - Remember, Reach.

-Bungie

ODST men are super strong, the best of the best. But I think there wasn't much "Spartans" left or there was't that many. So they dressed up Marines in fancy armor and trained them more. But keep in mind, Spartans are way better then ODST.

  • 03.06.2012 5:29 AM PDT

THE S4UCE IS THE B055

I'd say ODST's, they actually survived Reach
