Steve carries random useful crap in the pouches on his belt sometimes. It's no hyperspace arsenal, but small explosives (nothing that could damage Chief), and syringes and the like.
Dat shield, though.

No, no, yes, but who cares because shield.
The shield will indeed be an impressively stubborn problem, and Master Chief can't handle Rogers in a close confrontation, which he will turn this into, imho.

How is mc not faster or stronger caps bench is 800 and chiefs is in the tons, cap fastest speed feat was running like 55 mph, while chiefs starting acceleration is 55 kph
Chief's armor and shielding is almost the same as Cap's shield aside from the fact that Chief can't use his directly as a weapon, but he already has guns for that.
By default, Chief's definitely more durable due to the armor alone. As for speed and strength, I'm still not totally sure. Although Chief does casually flip tanks and has a 20ms reaction time (supposedly faster w/ Cortana).
I know it wasn't specified, but does Chief have an armor ability in this scenario?
His armor is approximately 1 ton by itself IIRC. He's commonly believed to be around class 5, and he is apparently capable of deflecting Scorpion Tank shells. This is probably a literary feat, so I'm unable to provide a citation, unfortunately.
He swatted the A2G missile fired from a jet fighter in Fall of Reach. It was apart of the trial where he first dons the suit and gets Cortana.
I don't bother with Captain America threads since Steve's superpower is basically turning the people he fights into retards who have forgotten what their abilities are.

Thanks for clarifying. Though I can't tell if that's more or less impressive. Impressive nonetheless though. How was Fall of Reach, BTW? I've never touched any of the novels.
I think what you're referring to here is the infamous "jobber aura". Fortunately, I don't see that becoming an issue in this thread.
