When it was upgraded against plasma it was downgraded agains bullets... as the layer added to disapate the plasma fire ment he had to loose some armor...SP weapons would damage an elite... I would concider them to do about as much damage as a plasma rifle.. So if they stood and just shot they would die at the same time... BUT if they shot and then hit, The elite would have the advantage.. If they went at it hand to hand... Elites would win with great strength and reflexs and the superior weapon...

They can't. The armor is too strong for them. The marines that actually tested the suits that weren't prepared like the Spartans were severely disfigured, if not dead.

OK, explain why the marines can survive loads of plasma fire, in any halo game cuz the damage you said it would do doesnt seem to ad up AT ALL.

The SP would most defenitly win in a firefight or in a "fist fight".
Lets consider that the Elite is fighting a MP2 pirate, yes I mean the ones who can do evasion manuvers, the SP would do as they usually do : Evade, shoot, evade, shoot, slice. And if the Elite tries to hit it would just put a pincer in the Elites way and voila we've got a pierced Elite. And in a "fist fight" the SP would just pincer the bare knuckle Elite cuz the SP doesnt have any hands any more.
The reason why you don't see all the soldiers going around in Mjolnir armour because you have to be picked when you are young and show the skills that are needed. Then it takes several years of training and upgrades to the ones picked before they are even capable of actually wearing the armour.
Thats that matter resolved.

you can still see SPs!!! theres not completely invis.. sure there slightly better cammo'd cause SA is ment to use her visor...But they will still show up on the elites radar and he will have basic knowledge that they have camo...

DarkC, that was the most unessesariest unessesary post I've ever seen.
The adapted SP's cant be damage at all by any other weapon other than the type of shot type mentioned in their names, everything else just bounce of their armor.
Thats a bit presumptuous... just cause SA has 3 guns and there are only vulnerable to 1 gun doesn't mean that another gun she doesn't have won't hurt them...
