Depends entirely really. If Riddick only has his default blades then Drizzt stands a good chance of victory. If on the other hand he gets even the smallest calibre gun, Drizzt is taking the fall here.

I think it depends if Drizzt’s darkness spell will affect Riddick. Not very sure about Riddick’s abilities other than what I partially played in the game.

If Drizzt uses his shadow ball attack, Riddick will not be able to see through it. Even the dark elves who use it cannot see inside of it.

His glowing eyes will not help him in fighting inside the Dark Orb and Drizzt due to his well trained senses will eaisly find Riddick and slice him to pieces.

Also SS Riddick is nowhere near a match for Drizzt. He’s the greatest swordsman in the world pretty much.

He has defeated one of the Strongest Demons in his own series a few times and has come out standing.

So Riddick being a threat to Drizzt? Nah, the most he’d probably amount to would be a highly skilled bodyguard in Drizzts world.

I think this is actually pretty close match up. Drizzt haas his advantages but so does Riddick. Plus the character’s are more alike then they appear since the character Riddick is kind of based on the Drow if you look closesly. He prefers the darkness, just as ruthless, likes to take people on aware, and is one of the more feared in his universe just like they are.

Drizzt Advantages-Blades have longer reach, has the racial ability to cast shadow, fairie fire, and levitate, best swords man his world.

Drizzt Weaknesses-According to racial stats of elves he’s weaker and has lower constitution, doesn’t fight as well in sunlight(Riddick has his goggles), and is described as sometimes reckless and rash.

Riddick Advantages-Much stronger, arguebly faster(In his anime he is observed fighting armed opponents head on with only a knife and was winning), has that rage of the furian ability, more ruthless, can operate in sunlight without any hampering of his abilities due to his goggles, much more agressive, has more of a killer instinct, can kill you with just about anything, and arguebly is the more patient of the 2.

Riddick Weakness-His combat ability isn’t as honed as Drizzt, basically useless in the light without his goggles, typically uses weapons with less lenth then drizzt.

I think this is anyone’s game here. Like I said Drizzt has a lot of advantages but so does Riddick and I’m leaning more towards him depending on what he’s armed with since Riddick is the stronger by far, at least as fast if not faster, and much more ruthless so you can count on him to fight dirty and cheat the first chance he gets.

highly skilled, this would be more a game of sneaking around by both parties

@Prime-You misunderstand. In the anime he fought men armed with assualt rifles head-on with a knife and won. That’s why I say he’s as fast or faster then Drizzt and besides that what do you mean anime blurs up? Are you talking about CGI anime or hand drawn cause I’ve never seen hand drawn anime blur up.

Also why do you call Riddick a pansy for? What makes the character a pansy because what I’ve seen from the character he’s very interesting and plane badass. I assume you base your opinion off the person who plays him but there’s much more to the character then the person who plays him and actually Riddick is Vin’s best role.

And lastly in the world of Faerun Riddick’s class would probably be based on his fighting ability a fighter/rogue/shadow dancer/ and possibly ranger due to his affinity with animals. Like I said your underestimating the Riddick just a bit.

Did you guys know that Riddick is a guest character in Fallout Tactics?

@AHEM-And you overlooking the fact that Riddick isn’t human. He’s a Furian which are stronger, faster, smarter, and more agressive. And he’s much better at backstabbing then the Drow is. And when I said he’s fought opponents head on they were armed with futuristic assualt rifles a farcry from the swords, spears, arrows, and like that Drizzt is used to.

@AHEM-I know what your saying but from what I gathered from all three movies he is most definitly faster then a normal human(like I said fighting men armed with assualt rifles head on with a knife is pretty impressive), stronger(able to toss men ten to 20 feet with his hands), and smarter(able to figure out alien technologies and weaknesses with a casual once over). If you wanta complete testiment of his abilities simly watch the movie Chronicles of Riddick: Assualt on Drak Athena. Yes it was a movie first and its better then the game. It takes place right after Pitch Black.

@midnight
where would i find that movie?

o do you mean dark fury?

Wait, is Drizzit getting his Mithril mail? if so, does Riddick get a firearm?

@mm
ya basically, jus 1s the longer version

Yeah firearms are not fair unless Drizzt get Tamrial or however its spelled then it would be fair. But as it stands I think both combatants are equals in all but strength. I think this outcome of this match depends on what Riddick is armed with.

@ss-Ulaks? What’s that?

I dont see how everyone seems to think “They’re equal in all but strength” Drizzt is retarded fast, he would be much much faster then Riddick, Which I think would be the Deciding factor

so when we get down to it we have 2 badass nonhumans that see in the dark and use blades

@Pcp-Once again you over-exagerate the movements of his sword are hard to keep up with but are not to fast to be seen or else his enemies would be completely unable to parry his attacks. Just ask character like Zaknafian, Artemis, and Obould if his attacks are too fast. Obould and Artemis fought him to a stand-still, Artemis being an ordinary human at the time, and Zaknafian nearly defeated him. The reason why he wins most of his fights is through pre-planning and hitting his enemies hard and fast and dropping them before they can react. It also does help that most of his enemies are cowards anyway.

midnight i agree with pcp first becuse the reason why drizzt weres his bracers on his anckles is becuse his hands are already sooo fast that if he did he couldnt controll his hands also you mentioned that drizzt would be hardpressed to see in daylight but becuse he left his home city of menzoberranzan at a young age for a drow he addapted earlier plus if they did fight in the dark he has ferrier fire and dont forget if he gets into any fights he reverts back to his native self the “hunter” wich allows him to notice weaknesses enemy flaws eaiser

he is better in light than his brothers, but thats all, and he wears a hood for that much easier to remove than the googles, and those flash pellets, we can assume he is out since he hasnt used them since the 1st book

“I think it would end in an Artemis/Drizzt thing, both can’t defeat each other…Unless Drizzt brought out Guen. But then again, Riddick has an affinity for animals, so it would be EXTREMLY close.”

I don’t think an affinity for animals is going to help much, considering that Drizzt is very close to Guen and also possesses the statuette which is used to control the panther and bring it from the astral plane.

my bad i meant to they wouldn’t allow to run around with i knife while you’re getting your ass shot at in the game.

if it wasnt for that reason** first section, last sentence
