Veer Zamamai Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 99 times out of 100, the scorpion will hand the wraiths ass to it on a silver platter. "Tank beats Everything." - Nameless marine, Halo 3. I have defeated the Scorpion many times with the Wraith. As I quoted recently: "the Wraith is only as good as it operated".

Church Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 I like the scorpion because I am a very big precision guy. With the scorpion, I can pick off enemies from most of the way across the map. I'm a sniper guy, like director. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veer Zamamai Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 (edited) This vote or discussion is pointless for the following reason: All Spartan players are going to pick Scorpion and a Sangheili/Covenant fans will pick Wraith. Everything the Spartans have is overpowered, and everything the Covenant has is underpowered; however, they have always been superior.

Vendetta Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Scorpion all the way, although that argument does make the wraith look pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellbringer 241 Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 It depends on the scenario, if it was a straight up tank battle the scorpion would win, but if the wraith was behind a small hill or a wall or something big enough to conceal the whole vehicle but allow wraith mortar shots to travel through, the wraith would win. They both have strategic values. Although I prefer the scorpion personally. I've never really been a fan of anything covenant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you should read a little more about the topic? The wraith is easier to board and destroy A Wraith is very easy to kill the hijacker, especially from the front. It is actually harder than the Scorpion as it has such an agile and fast boost which will splatter all who oppose. As I have said before: the Wraith is as good as its operator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Composite Armour Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 The wraith is slow and presents a large target for the Sorpion's main gun. It's a piece of mobile artillery trying to take on a Heavy tank, it's not gonna win. The wraith is used for taking out fixed enemy poistions, the scorpion is for taking out enemy armour, like the wraith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sadly Just AL Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Scorpion forever! It's a bit weak in Halo 4 but I'll love it always. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi1176 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 While the wraith is stronger the scorpian maneuvers better. Thats just my opinion. So yes I think the scorpian is better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helljumper425 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Scorpion MBT beats Wraith hands-down. Its main cannon has an ungodly range greater than that of the Wraith's flaming mothball launcher. Though I'd take an Abrams over the Scorpion any day simply because it's way faster and has been fitted to fire depleted uranium rather than tungsten shells.

I think they've made the Wraith worse in Halo 4. It's aim is WAY off. And why did this thread get moved to halo books? :l Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also you're right. They tried to balance the Wraith with sluggish ton-f***ery handling and a lousy range for its cannon. Granted, its cannon does some damage, it's still a pretty measly piece of s***. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
