So how tall/heavy is the Slayer supposed to be?

[e11]

I know the old stats for Doomguy list him as 6'3 and 180 pounds, but judging by the POV when meeting normal humans the Slayer seems taller than that, and he is CERTAINLY heavier.

[Jork]

yeah there's no way he's only 180.

if i had to guess, 6'3 looks about right, but he's gotta weigh at least 300 pounds.

[bullerbuller7]

i'd say around 2 meters and 110 kilos

[Filthy Cur]

The best way to find out how heavy he is. Is to get a pond of adequate girth and depth, some wood that floats, and a duck. Just beware, you may be turned into a newt.

But, you'll get better.

110 kg for 2 m would be thin and slim if doom guy is 2 m he would weight between 150 and 200 for his size

I did a little math...

Doomguy in Quake III is billed as 6' tall and 180lbs:

https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/quake/images/8/86/P_doom_tn.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20150606110422

Fully armored, he probably stands around 6'3" ish, given the hefty boots and helmet. As for weight, I have no good way to estimate that. He's definitely a lot beefier in Eternal than in 2016. Which I think makes sense given the lore, the more hell energy he absorbs the stronger he gets.

This life-size statue is 205cm, including the base:

https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Doom_Slayer_life-size_figure

So that works out to just shy of 81 inches. Estimating the height of the base, we'll subtract six inches, giving him a height of about 75 inches, fully armored. That's 6'3", so, give or take, roughly 6' tall unarmored, which fits with his Quake III description.

When it comes to the POV, remember the boots give him a bit of a boost, and we don't know how tall the scientists he's meeting are.

He's not genetically engineered like Master Chief, he's not some 7' tall monster. He's a reasonable height for a human male.

200 kilos o.o if he was super human yes, but he wasn't until doom 2016 and his body didn't look superhuman in the intro of 2016. We don't know if the powerup made him heavier. I agree that 110 could be too low, might stretch it to 120 xD

You also have to consider that the canon evens between whatever was the last 'canon' older doom game, and Doom 2016, kinda turned him into a really buffed up gladiator.

And that was before he got empowered by the seraphim. Who knows what that could have done, but being able to rend flesh and bone with your bare hands is definitely not something even a champion bodybuilder could do in real life. At least, not the way the Slayer does it.

190cm/100 kg would be neat. No reason to go beyond 100 since it would hinder his speed. Though no matter how muscular he is, he is strong enough to rip a Pinky's jaw, and Pinkies have a higher bite potential than bull terrier dogs.

he didn't rip and tear until 2016, which is after his seraphim powerup. We don't know if that powerup adds weight since it adds an energy to the "soul" or something.
And i also feel like Rarity is on to something, there is a reason not to be too heavy. Being light vs being strong is very important.

Theoretically, it is possible to have both, if you build muscle in a certain way. Though humans naturally don't build muscle in such a fashion through conventional means.

Yea that's what i mean. His body is built light for mobility but still strong.

Well who knows, maybe that machine the seraphim put him in did something to his body as well?

Although I may be wrong on the mobility side. Barons of Hell should weigh at least a ton, or even 3 if their build is at least in a bit of relevance to animals of the Earth, and they are insanely fast and agile. Unlike Mancubi :)

To be fair, that's because barons have muscle, whereas mancubi have fat.

[Lusus Symphonia]

His weight and mass isn't accurate and doesnt matter as fantasy usually has the same skinny person picking up a 200kg greatsword.
There is no way the doom slayer could over power hell knights, titans etc with his current muscle mass.

And the fact this guy is packing a full inventory of heavy AF weapons..

Height is definitely around 7ft tall unless the scientists and soldiers looking after Hayden are purposefully chosen to be a part of the midget squadron.

My guess is the music gives him the strength.
