Well I wondered if Dante could move when someone else did it. Dante can stop time with the quicksilver, but can he really withstand it without it? The Prince has shown that he can....

the prince wins, argument ended, he is protected by the Medallion, the power itself that stops time is called the power of haste, it stops time and makes the prince extremely fast at the same time
the princes attack called the power of restraint freezes whoever the prince stabs while usin the power and then he can slash through him and melt him out of existance
Dante is not shown to have ANY protection against time
You're not very good at aswering questions are you? Or even good at reading others' posts, you havent even proved sh!t about his meddallion having enough IQ to protect anything, which it doesnt, it's only used by the princes' mind when he is in contact with it, the same thing goes for his dagger which has only proved to be effective against the sand people, not demons.
Obvious question which result in Dante's victory you have ignored totally:
How come the prince gets cut despite your "fact" that the time artifacts "protect" him? I can aswer that one for you, cuz they dont !
How the hell would the prince be able to think with a bullet in his head?
Would the prince be able to think a slitghest thought before the shot has been fired? Not likely.
Has the prince even the slightest hint of being able to dodge a bullet head on or even a rocket? NO.
Does the prince know what gun is? NO.
Does the prince know what comes out of a gun? NO.
Would his head likely be in contact with one of his time artifacts if he were to get blown to bits? NO. Would he able to use them anyway? NO.
Can the time powers be used if he's totally dead and still in contact with his artifacts? NO, the sand power runs out faster than I drink a Coke.
Unfair advantages Dante has
1. DT.
2. The ability to do what he wants in a time freezed world.
3. He's a demon.
4. Has an arsenal
5. guns...
BT, face it, the odds are against him
Yeah, Dante killed it, it was some crazed ghost hourse who had time controlling abilities.

That's good, but I don't think he meant that the amulet protects him from damage, but from other time attacks.
And I don't think Dante would be fast enough to draw his gun, aim, shoot the Prince in the head, before the Prince has one single thought in his head, not even the bullet would get there fast enough. The Prince could speed up his body as hell. And he can turn back time when he is dead as well, or at least dying. If he can be speared by hundreds of pikes then turn back the time so that never happens, I think he could do it when he is shot. (But I doubt that will happen fast enough).
I will ask again, did Dante face any time stopping opponents?
And if time is freezed then Dante's projectile will only stop in the air....

your not listening or understanding posts either yu nutter
indeed kamikz is right, i meant it protects him from TIME attacks, so Dante is usless if time is frozen, Dante wont shoot the prince in the head before the prince can make one small thought of time stop
then the prince wins, dagger in head, time freeze on Dante body and then blast him from time itself
LockJaw face it the odds are against him, Dante loses blatently, he can do nothing
Quicksilver is just like the prince's time stopping ability it really just make him faster and make everything else look like it's not moving at all so it's not an attack, it's just support and since Dante has all his abilities that means he's got the quickheart which makes him even faster and in DT mode he gets thicker skin (and greater durability, gives him new powers) plus Alastor which make him yet even faster and makes lightning flow through his body. And wouldnt the prince wonder why a gun is pointed at him would he know it's a threat or what's gonna happen? Dante is more or less from the future, the prince is more used to dodge arrows FFS.
And if the prince would slow down time Dante would just counter that by going DT and/or use QS with everything related to speed and even the prince were to cut Dante's throat the skin and meat would just regenarate just behind his dagger (yepp, that's why Vergil didnt die in DMC3).
Dante knows just by looking at him that he's not from his era.
Dagger in head he'll just take it out since similar things have happened before and regenarate, pleeeeeeeeaaaaaaaace do some homework.
Time freeze + blast from time?! Dont do drugs

the princes powers doesnt slow down time, it stops time wheras Dante doesnt stop it, just makes him faster but nothing stops a thought, its instant, what dante doesnt know is that this little human is actually powerful enough to stop time and destroy him completly with a puny dagger but all Dante see's is a little weak looking human and so ignores him, then he finds himself frozen and the prince slashes the knife into his chest, turning Dante frozen and then slashes him out of time

i read all your posts, the only reason i go on the forums is to see what people say, if i wanted to may a fanboy thread id make Dante Vs Dahaka if i really loved POP that much or id make Diablo vs Dante because Diablo is a favoured character
there isnt one thing youve written on here that you can say i havnt read
Yeah and those he beat didnt even use any time based attacks and there's nothing proving his artifacts protects him from time based attacks BT has some good imagination skills, I say And I put this wrong, he does stop time it's only in gameplay it only makes him uber fast.

Well yeah the fact that the Empress could rewind time if she was loosing or dying was made useless agains the prince pretty much proves it, or how he could overcome someone he knew EXACTLY what he was going to do all the time, couldn't happen without the amulet or the dagger.....

xactley, although ime not sure if it actually says it in words somewhere (actually i think it does i think in the first or second game) that its obvious hes protected to time, the empress can rewind and everything with her powers and the Dahaka warps time and space around it, moving and doing strange teleportations
Dante doest fight any true time enemies, the coachmen is not really a time enemy
also it seems someone...namely Lockjaw is changing everything, it seems he doesnt like the fact Dante cannot really stop time and only speeds himself up
Also the prince can see the future so none of this "the prince wont know what a gun is" crap, hell just see the future and change it to the way he wants it, he could just stop time before the fight has even started and kill Dante before he knows whats hit him
