W.W. Bracers vs. B.B. Scream

Started by chomperx97 pages

I still dont see how she can block the scream 100%. lets say BBs scream is 25 FT width and heigth. WW has her arms crossed covering her head. yeah the scream isnt gonna effect her head but can still attack the lower part of her body. even if WW uses one arm to block the lower part and upper part of her body somewhere around around the middle she will get hit.

and if her bracers protect her all around her body 100% without her having to block there then why does she have to move her bracers to that specific area when someone makes an attack there ?

Bracers ? how big is the Ora? are her legs protected / abdomen etc?
^^ That's what i'm saying.

The Aura Covers her entire body. Even when the bracers aren't crossed they still give her a low level shield around her entire person.

Reposting my post from page 1:

It depends on the writer and the prominence of the story: she has been affected by sound and not blocked it with her bracers (such as the JLA's most recent run in with Amazo, around #24-28), but has at other times blocked wider area sonic attacks (such as when the Silver Swan attempted to kill Wonder Girl and Diana blocked a wide area by crossing her bracers). Part of the misperception stems from the nature of Diana's bracelets: it isn't simply that they are nigh indestructable -- they are the current physical embodiement of the Aegis, and can repel assaults (especially energy) with much greater effect than their physical size would indicate. Still requires great speed and strength to wield them effectively, however, against powerful attacks... or strickly physical protectiles, such as bullets, et al...

I've seen a number of "mass" blocks in the Respect thread (and in my limited collection of her, as well...)

So is she affected by sound attacks?

She, personally? Yes. Though she is very resistant to it, as she is to most physical attacks. That's why she would need the Bracers.

Now, WITHOUT them...?

Girlfriend would be in for a world of hurt, at the very least...

Everyone is affected by Sound attacks. Even Juggernaut and Superman.

Lies. Don't say that she NVER been taged with a low level attack without her bracers being crossed.

What the hell are you talking about? I said the bracers have a low level shield around her. LOW level Shield. As when she fell from a building and commented on the low level shield providing some protection from the fall. What in the HELL are you talking about? Where did I say she has never been tagged by a low level attack? I didn't see that anywhere in my post.

low level shield? hmmmm... that i wasn't aware of.

You guy's know it's not the sound from bb that make's the damage right????

He was responding in terms of her *not* having her bracers, as in her own physical resistance. (Which I brought up in response to a question about *her* being affected by sound).

I am. I think most people here are. Doesn't have any bearing in terms of the Bracers.

Than why are the last few posts about sound,
I know the most people here on kmc know his power just some aren't here for long

If she has a low lever shield around her consistently wouldn't a competent individual assume that she can be invulnerable to a low level attack such as a punch from Batman?

She isn't "affected" by a low level attack, such as a punch from Batman. When they spar in various issues of JL, her resistance from harm is more than sufficient to protect her. The last time someone of mortal strength could harm WW... lord, you'd almost have to go back to Pre-Crisis. And the WW of the past decade or so is the most durable she's ever been.

It's not sound based iff it was than wwh would have field day on the moon

I think he was trying to say that it isn't just a purely sonic attack, in the sense of Black Canary's sonic-scream, for example. There's a bit more to it than that. But again, doesn't make any difference in this particular case.
