What will it take to defeat the Didact for good? [Spoilers]

It costed Chief Cortana to stop the Didact temporarily, his best and possibly only friend gone to delay him. I feel like in the end Chief will give his life to defeat him.

If so, Chief should use a gold warthog to ram the Didact as well. Perhaps infectious disease is the way to kill him. Small Pox anyone? [Edited on 11.26.2012 4:33 AM PST]

  • Just tell Caboose to help the Didact. That should solve the problem.

  • Didn't cheif survive a hand-nuke because of forerunner magic? The Didact is full of that stuff, the Chief can't do anything against him.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] xi43 We don't know when he said that, so until I see the Didact in game again or until 343 says he's alive, I will continue to believe he is dead.[/quote]Fail. How else would Didact be speaking if he were dead? A pre-recorded message for is inevitable fate? I don't think so.

Also, in the terminals the Didact was going through mutations to see if his true form would be immune to flood infection. Saying no to this, another Forunner said what about the Composer, and the Didact replied "It wouldn't work on my form." Also, he fell into the portal, the slip-space rupture for the Composer which sent him to Requiem so basically he survived.

I think that Bornstellar had his portion of mind composed leaving the didact to his body. That would be the best way to explain one being on the ring and the beginning of cryptum.[/quote] Let's wait until Silentium to be sure about that stuff. I got a hunch that book will explain a few things 4 introduced.

[/quote] I think that speech was something he said in the past, before any halo games.[/quote] Couldn't have been, the Didact didn't know about mankind's Precursor-given destiny to uphold the Mantle before he blew us back to the stone age. And when he did find out, we were in no position for the "reclamation to have already begun," (he doesn't even think it has begun when you first awaken him) and definitely in no position to be the "greatest threat in the galaxy." All of that could only possibly have been said after Halo 4.

  • I believe the Didact's speech was during the last Forerunner-Human war, however it could also be that he has joined up with other living Forerunners and is now attempting to convince them that Humanity is a serious threat to the mantle; that we will destroy it rather than uphold it. The Didact is more than likely alive I believe, and Cortana is with him, trapped inside his armour. The question for me is; will he emerge an enemy again, or an unwilling ally like the Arbiter in Halo 2?

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ROBERTO jh Bullet to the head tends to work. Seriously though, he isn't our only problem. The Precursors would swat him like a fly once they begin their final test. I'm more worried about them than the Didact.[/quote]I hope he's pulled away screaming like the turtle in Rango, by a Precursor. If he actually is alive, which I hope he isn't.
