do i detect a little bias titusfied? heh
it can be blocked.. there are numerous examples in the game
ones i can take off the top of my head are:
mmx1: armored armadillo uses padding on his arm
mmx4: split mushroom stage.. while running up the stairs those machines with the movable shields
mmx4: frost walrus stage the miniboss in certain forms creates a shell that blocks attacks
in any case being that

Ultima Weapon isn't even technically metal, it's a weird half-energy, half matter composite if anything

i would think that it should have the ability to deflect any concentrated energy in the form of projectiles or at the very least be able to absorb the impact or partially the energy in the shot
cloud can fly.. thus the energy field left behind doesnt leave a lot of hindrance.. slight change of his course in flying to go around the field would solve that and the field doesnt last forever.. additionally, the buster takes charging time to shoot the power shot
and now a huge disadvantage that i have now thought of for X is that his buster can only shoot horizontally.. imagine cloud flying higher than X can jump.. this would render the buster virtually useless against cloud as well as some other weapons
bleh nvm its raining heavily
in any case i dont think the bamboo could hold up X
and would quickly be cleared out with a couple of shots from X
btw the weather and the bamboo was most likely intended to give cloud an advantage.. being able to hide within the bamboo forest and the weather bolstering his lightning based attacks
but i dont think it works because the energy weapons of X would easily clear out the entire forest with little to no effort (he would probably do it unintentionally just shooting) and i seriously doubt cloud would be stupid enough to try to charge X head on being that X could murder him with projectiles.. thus cloud would use his ability to fly
and cloud casting spells would take too much time while X just blasts the hell out of him as it does not take time for him to use the numerous maverick weapons and X has powerups that allow him to use them infinitely
