I think this necropost rule is getting a little troublesome... can't we fix it a little bit? =w=;

Necroposting is okay, as long as the necropost has some kind of relevance, and not just a one word reply which brings nothing to the discussion.

That's my view anyway.

"Relevance" was posted later tho, so it's alright for now. ^^

Love the design of Blade Armor, shame it's underpowered. As far as design goes I really like Fourth and Black Ultimate the best after Blade.

On usability Shadow Armor is a [tornado fang]ing juggernaut of destruction. Even the Fourth Armor in X4 felt a bit overpowered.

And I rather dislike Glide for its lousy design and lack of any unique features, and X8's armor just feels 'meh' overall to me.

X's New Armor from CM is also a favorite, but it's also the 'default form' from the game anyway.

the actual necropost held no relevance at all.
the [parasitic bomb] that followed did.

This.  Seriously if the buster at LEAST triggered its extra effect based on health rather than size, the armor would have been a lot more usable (seeings how this leaves you screwed against Nightmares, which are EVERYWHERE).

Still an armor.  You have a spread charged shot and apparently some greater dash part compatibility.

The Blade Armor was probably my favorite concept. Combining the amazingly destructive Beam Saber with the never-ending potential of the X Buster? I wouldn't want THAT charged blade coming at me. It's a shame the weapon was CRAP to use in battle. It was like they had two different groups of people working on this: one to promote it & one to execute it. And they didn't communicate with each other.

That said, I'll go with the Gaea Armor. Bringing down bosses in a matter of seconds. You can't beat that with a stick.

As for WTF points, my choice is the Shadow Armor. Seriously, it's supposed to have a Ninja motif. Since when does a Ninja obliterate everything in front of him with a single sword slash?
The only sensible way to live in this world is without rules.

Happens a lot in Ninja Gaiden. And I'm sure Hayabusa isn't the only one that can do that.

All the time?

Dude. It's a Ninja. Masters of Stealth and Assassination. They kill their targets with one well-timed, well-placed hit. Any more, and they'd be the ones dying.

Also, Shadow Armor makes Final Sigma easy as heck, I've found.

Any saber will do that amount of wreckage to him.

But with Shadow Armor, you get to do it as a ninja, so...

I must beg to differ.  While any saber wrecks the crap out of Sigma, Shadow Armor's does it the most.

But the most humiliating enemy pjwnage in X6 has to be Nova Strike vs. High Max.

"Data-wise, I've surpassed you..."

*BOOM!*

"...ass."

Nononononono. Mach Dash and Guard Shell is the most humiliating.

Well High Max deserves it. Nigh-invincible douche.

And then there's Gate, Mr. Invincible himself.  Not only is that one of the most frustrating fights in the series, it's also one of the most awkward.  I actually died once because one of those platforms re-appeared over me. :P
