In ME1 I got the impression that the Turians were physically superior  to  hu,ams , with Saren lifting Shepard up with one arm , and them being the big military power in the galaxy . But in ME2 Shepard can beat up Turians in some (I think) renegade interupts , I know Shepard is hard , but still are humans and Turians pretty evenly matched in physical strength?

[timj2011]

a human at his physical peak is equal to an average turian

[ElectricZ]

Didn't Saren have some "help" from Sovereign in the form of cybernetic implants?

[Bebbe777]

Also Saren had a cybernetic arm

[AdmiralCheez]

Commander Shepard also headbutted a krogan and took out a yahg with his/her fists. It's not really a fair comparison.

[TheNexus]

I definitely think there is a huge difference between ME1 Shepard and ME2 Shepard physically.



ME2 Shepard has been rebuilt to be a killing machine. No human on Earth can match him, so he's not really a good comparison. A better comparison might be between Kaidan and Garrus in ME1.

I'd say that the Turian exoskeleton gives them an edge (possibly), but they are a lot skinnier than humans, too, which means less muscle mass. I dunno, we mostly just see Shepard, or other crazily overpowered people (read: squadmates) in combat. So, as someone mentioned, it's hardly a fair comparison. However, given an average human and an average Turian... I'd still back the Turian, if only because s/he'd be taller and, overall, bigger, and much harder (exoskeleton, yah.) For a human, without any implants, it might be difficult to inflict any damage.

In the game world, though, it doesn't really matter. Only the size of your gun does.

Its simple



Turians have reach but Humans have flexibility ; )

Didn't you watch the opening movie?

[Destroy Raiden_]

humans have been know to lift cars when they're in a mental crisis so we've got the strength in there we just don't use it 99% of the time. I think shep being rebuilt with cybernetics allows for him to use that rare crisis strength all the time or at least when he would normally require more muscle usage so the 2 shep can tango with a Turian, a Yahg, and Terminator baby with little difficulty.



However if shep never died he wouldn't be headbutting Krogans with out getting a cracked skull or punching Turians without fracturing his fingers.

[KingusJamus]

There's a reason we don't use our full strength all the time, because once you do you usually blow out all the muscles and are in need of some serious recovery time.

[Shepard needs a Vacation]

Shepard is a terminator with red eyes and metal arms

[Inquisitor Recon]

Ah yes "turians". We have dismissed these claims.

i'm pretty sure it was the same arm infact he used to lift shep >>

[Inquisitor Recon]

Is it me or does it look like a good part of Saren's face is cybernetic too? Maybe he took a hit like Zaeed.

[Epic777]

me2 shepard can fire an 80 pound snipers rifle

[caffinefiend23]

Could be in WHERE you smack them too? I mean, in ME1 if you have Anderson go the Citadel Control instead of Udina's office, he takes out a Turian C-Sec officer. Grant it Anderson is a BA too but it's just food for thought.

On an totally unrelated note, I hope Shepard's ability to headbutt Krogan's let's us headbutt the Turian counicler in ME3...

[lovgreno]

Shepard and Saren are super cyborgs so they don't count for comparing how good pugilistic skills the average human or turian have.

But in close combat skills of the average individual I would say the list may be something like this:
1. Krogan.
2. Turian.
3. Asari.
4. Human and batarian.
5. Vorcha.
6. Hanar.
7. Quarian.
8. Volus.
9. Conrad Verner.

Think the Vorcha would be a bit higher on that list. Don't they have appearently inhuman regenerative abilities? Asari would be more flexiable then the average human and has biotics on their side but I don't think they are physically stronger.

[lovgreno]

I agree Jagri, but Vorcha are also extremely stupid. Asari on the other hand outsmarts and outbiotics almost everyone.

[AdmiralCheez]

I actually think quarians should be a little higher on your list, as well. According to Grunt, they are surprisingly not squishy, and have to train in CQC in case any of their ships are ever boarded.



A turian could still kick their asses, though. Because turians are awesome.

I still think the average turian has around 1.5x strength of an average human (or a bit more) but you seem to forget:

Shepard has been rebuilt. I mean, he can fire a Widow sniper rifle and technically it should blast his arm out of his socket each time he does so but it doesn't, and the same applies for the Krogan Shotgun (Claymore). He/She's got upgrades and makes him a hell of a lot stronger than your normal human/turian by miles ^^.

[SandTrout]

From what I've read of the codex regarding Turians, they're roughly on par with Humans physically. They may be physically stronger, but less resilent, or vise-versa. I don't know of any clear demonstration of physicall supperiority between either species.



The Asari commandos are known for their in depth combat training, but are also notoriously 'squishy'.



Krogan are well known for their close quarters ability, but are overly agressive.

Saren was cybernetically enhanced with Reaper and Geth tech. Thats why he could lift Shep the way he did.
