Ive read the lore and as much as these heroes hate each other I can’t help but to wonder who would win in a battle to the end.

Rytlock:

Pros- * Has Ruriks legendary sword Sohothin
* Vastly stronger and larger in size

Cons- * Behemoth of a size can render him slow compared to an agile human
* Stubborn and Careless could make him lose a battle of witts and tactics vs
Logan.

Logan:

Pros- * His love for the queen makes him stronger and more dangerous
* A brilliant strategist using necessary tactics to defeat powerful foes
* Veteran soilder who is dangerous with the blade, fast and strong.

Cons- * Very emotionally unstable when the Queen is mentioned or involved
* Not as strong as Rytlock so if he loses his blade he will be hurt by the mellee

I would love to hear some feed back, Please reply with WHO you think would win then a simple reason why. Thanks guys!

LMAO!

This thread should go into lore… I think.

SPOILERS FOR EDGE OF DESTINY

And not everything stated is corrected. for instance … Logan a veteran soldier? not really he was a part of a somewhat militia group, doing guerrilla tactics to charr warbands because his big brother was the “real soldier” (Logan’s owns thoughts on the matter since his brother was a seraph in charge of the queen’s protection) and after that both him and Rytlock fought in the LA’s arenas so more like gladiators than anything. And he is more used to fighting with a mace than a sword.

About Rtylock losing in tactics to Logan… the only time that logan tried to out tactic Rytlock, the Charr saw the trap a mile a way… the commanding officer of the unit did not heed Rytlock’s advice and Logan’s ambush was successful.

I would say that they are even matched… I mean even Rytlock thinks so since he made Logan and honoray member of his warband (something akin to calling him his brother)

Cancer is also a Zodiac sign.

In Rytlock’s office, there is a spear awarded from Rytlock’s days in the arena. A fight of the full Destiny’s Edge in a competition. The last standing winners of Destiny’s Edge? Rytlock and Garm.

And we all know Garm lasts longer in fights than Rytlock.

The Dire Black Wolf beats all. Even Snaff – and Snaff wrestled the mind of Kralkatorrik! Imagine what Garm could do if he did the same – he’d wrestle the mind of Tyria down with his mental teeth! :P

for instance … Logan a veteran soldier? not really he was a part of a somewhat militia group

He was a mercenary – hired to protect caravans going to and from Ebonhawke.

Charr are not feral berserkers (Some are, but the best aren’t), they are militarial and they have many great tactics. Wits on the other hand, I might need to hand that to Logan.

They have fought several times and its never been decisive. Rytlocks advantage in attack is countered by Logan’s strong defensive skills. They are very closely matched.

They have never gotten to finish a fight. They always tend to get interupted either by enemies, authorities or snappy player characters.

What are their specs? We can probably simulate this fairly accurately.

Logan is a Greatsword Guardian… and Rytlock is a Warrior with 1h Sword main and… sometimes pistol off-hand? Huh. Ok. Maybe not…

In CoF Logan saves Rytlock when he is falling. This is a 500-700 lbs cat man, complete with very heavy armor and weaponry (Not to mention the falling momentum and etc). He saved and pulled Rytlock up without too much difficulty. Clearly Logan is in the top tier of Humans.

He’s as strong as any other member of Destiny’s Edge.

I’d say Rytlock because I still hate Logan from his screw-up in Edge of Destiny, which was probably the most beautifully written… thing I’ve ever had the pleasure of reading. SERIOUSLY.

Apart from Logan’s romantic letter to Jennah, that is.

But still, whoever can whirl their weapons in ‘deadly figure eights’ the most is the strongest.

As much as I dislike Asura, Zojja would win. She is an Elementalist. In lore, Elementalists would wreck almost every opponent, of course not in-game because of balance and game mechanics. The only other magic user in Destiny’s Edge is Logan, and he still wouldn’t stand a chance against an Elementalist. An Elementalist vs a non-magic user is like a super hero vs a normal person.

No one in Destiny’s Edge would realistically be able to take on Zojja, or any skilled Elementalist. They can reflect bullets and arrows, so ranged attacks wouldn’t work either. You would have to sneak up on them while they were sleeping and if you wake them up you’re dead.

Sneaking up on them is one way.

Ranged attacks are still viable if an Ele dont see it coming.

Flame Legion shamans seem to only use fire magic, which is only good at blowing stuff up. The real invincibility comes from being able to freeze someone in a block of ice at the drop of hat, even with no water around. I like to compare Elementalists to Jedi, and everyone else to Troopers. So yes, they can be killed from a sneak attack, but they would win every head-on fight. To me, that’s why Zojja is the most powerful, even though I dislike Asura and Elementalists I have to admit that.
