Predators vs Elites

GGgrievous725 what sort of area we talking about here???

A predator is a lone hunting alien, granted they do team up for big targets but most of there time they are on there own. Against a single elite then the predator would hunt him down.

However this is a war with an army on both sides, so elites won't go on there own, and usually will have a tank backing them up. a single shot from an elite would melt a predator. They have no armor that could stand up to plasma, bullets kill them. predator blades would kill an elite but the shields would prevent a shot from the predator cannon, and would force him to de-cloak and get shot.

Predators just aren't meant for wars. Just hunting small amounts of prey.

YEAH! Plus they have all those cool ghosts and banshees!!

Elites should pull it off, if a marine can kill a predator and an elite can easily butcher a squad of marines well...Also Elites are adept at all forms of combat including sniping and lets not forget their superior starship technology and swords. Elites also have motion trackers which negate the predators camo. Elites (especially special forces elites) are adept with all weapons and vechiles, imagine 200 hundred spectre's, plasma grenades, sniper rifles the elites are more then well equiped to deal with predators, unless it became jungle warfare but the elites would just glass the forest.

1st, Elites don't get tanks.

2nd, if it's army vs. Army, I'd assume each gets the same number. Predators lose to Aliens because they are vastly outnumbered. They should beat the Elites. Hit and run tactics work quite well against almost any army. And Predator's are equipped fine to kill some Elites. The better Predators should take out the Arbiter no problem.

Did you all forget about the wrist bomb? You all can't possably go for the dum Elites? The Predators will make the Elites threr bitches.
As for the AVP movie the reason that the preadtors were yongleans
teenagers carless in the battle. The Alians are the best hunting animal for the yong ones. To join there clan. Like my fav go Yeyinde The king Preadtor he killer 3 Queens in his life cycle most don't even see a Queen in there life cycle. there for the Predators would win.

Elites have shields that recharged and a range of alien technology.

Predators have Shields too, in certain games (AVP Extinction for PS2) they get the Killscreen generator that tops incoming enemy projectiles. Plus they too can recharge their energy.

Ok, your talking about the combined technology of the entire Covenant here, not just Elites... As far as I know, the Vehicles are made for the whole Covenant, and thats not really fair... The weapons Elites usually carry are Plasma Rifles, Needlers, and Plasma Swords, Occasionally they carry the Plasma Carbine. Now, limited to that I'd say the Technology that is bought to the battlefield is in the Predators favour.

That same predator butchered 6 marines before going down to the last one in the unit (And because it's Arnie, you know the pred was going down 😛 )

Predators also get vision modes like Predteh mode, this allows them to see cloaked enemies clear as day. Predtech mode > Motion Tracker

Predators have far superior close combat weaponry, the best being the Double Plasma Voluge and the Plasma Scythe. Plasma Voluge and Plasma Scythe both > Plasma Sword.

The Military Hydra (A heavily armed predator) Fires swarms of white hot plasma missiles that track targets and deliver enough firepower to decimate a Dropship. Hydra > tanks (If applicable), Decimates everything else

Oh yeah, Predators also have snipers called Hunters, these guys are very experienced Snipers that rarely miss, so the Elites advantage of Sniping just coped a headshot in their camping heads 😛

This combined with the other multitudes of Weapons Predators usually carry (Disks, Netguns, Wristblades, Plasmacasters, Medicomp, Ect) I think that the elites would get totaled... It would probably only take a team to detonate High Charity!

each predator i highly trained a elite is trained but not as well as predator preds live for the fight and only for the fight they bred aliens just to fight them preds take this one from far and up close long live the preds

pred vaungauds wil kill alot of the elites

Go preds 🙂

Predator. I mean sure elites got those shiny- OH MY GOD SHINY -sword things, look at every frickin' thing Predators got. And do you see Elites frying a whole army of Aliens by themselves. I don't think so.

Did you see all the Predators in the end of AVP? I mena elites got all that whatever (I never played Halo 2) but Predators, come on! And in the first move ONE! Just ONE! Took out six green berets, six or seven ELITE commandos and who knows what else. In Predator 2, one killed a shit load of gangs who all had guns and that dude with knives. In AVP they took out every alien in sight with only three. And I believe the Elites need to actually lock on to something to forever track it. But has anyone ever played Concrete Jungle? One Predator killed about four of its own (all of them were insanely modified AND criminals), an infinite army of Aliens, a mother brain, two mafias, a mafia boss with an axe and a shield, about three street gangs, a whole bunch of pimps with laser guns, five ronin samurai body guards, about eight or more special ops guys, a HELL of a lot of security guards and scientists... I could go on forever. My point is, the Predators gave the entire human race (and a couple others) a thorough soaking in blood and acid. I rest my case.

The Elites are able to hold back the flood. Grunts run like cowards but if 1 Elite leads them into battle the Grunts charge without fear. An Elite can kill a group of marines by himself and they travel in groups unlike the Predators. Elites don't have to lock on they grab a Plasma Rifle and they run in shooting and they hardly miss in open terrian. Elites also have ghosts and banshees and the Covenant has never lost a war yet. Expect for maybe against the Earth forces but Halo 3 isn't out yet so who know.

Elites are not the whole covenant. The thread is Elites vs. Predators. Not the Covenant vs. Predators. I forget the names of some of the better predators, but they are exponentially more skilled than the normal ones. Which is saying something. Predators win in terms of weaponry, stealth, and skill. Which is pretty much all of the big factors here...

weaponry yeah right elites weaponry systems are far beyond predators a net a spear a really sharp boomerang and there best weaponthere lasers now elites weapons plasma rifle fuel rod cannon pistols and tons more advanced weaponry stealth predators can do camo but so can elites so it doesnt really matter skill at what hunting not gonna help ya much in the middle of a war the machinery is much better for elites than predators scarabs can knock out many many predators with a single blast therefore predators stand no chance in war

....

Is this a footman war or will the elites use veichels. if they do, they would slaughter the predators. I think the elites would win anyway. In large numbers they are good. I dont know much about the predators, but as faar as i know, in combat all predators are the same rank. Elites have leaders, specialised in different things. Some are trained for combat, and they are realy ****ing good at that, while some elites are trained for thinking or tactics. And if the arbiter was with them, they would work even better ✅

so true

Predators have ranks and specific jobs as well... There's the lowly normal predators, the Elder Predators, which have been around for thousands of years and seen literally millions of battles, btw, theres snipers, and military hydras and whatnot.

As for the technology... Did anyone read Darkstorm Zero's post? Every predator has plenty of plasma weapons and such. The spears are basically indestructible. Plasma guns for everyone. Predators are NOT only from the movies. They are mostly from comics. Either Topknot or Broken Tusk would MURDER 20 of the Arbiter...

Predators can live for thousands of years, and fight constantly for all of it. They typically weigh around 300 pounds... Of pure muscle. They have almost no fat due to their diet and constant battling. The elites are screwed.

Predator Weaponry are as follows:
Wrist Blades
Scatter Gun
Naginata
Dart Guns
Net Launchers
Forearm Plasma Cannon/Laser
Combi-Stick
Smart Disk
Shoulder Plasma Caster
Dual Mounted Heavy Laser Cannon
Shoulder Mounted Micro Missile Launcher
Anti-Vehicle Plasma Bolt Cannon
Burner (napalm)
Chemical Sprayer
Other specialized weapons (plasma scythe and voulge were mentioned)

Each Predator wouldn't carry all of these... But each would have wrist blades, a forearm gun, a shoulder mounted gun, and some other melee stuff.

Elites have ranks as well.
Blue (rookie)
Red/Orange (veteran)
Gold (command)
Black (spec. ops.)
White "Ultra" (spec. ops. command)
Blue Jetpacker (aerial assault/ranger)
Honor Guard (Prophet guardians)
White/Silver, Gold "Praetor" (ceremonial)
