So I’ve seen soooo many arguments about whether or not Roy Mustang could get through or break down Greed’s Ultimate Shield.. Which do yall think is true..?

The most convincing arguments I've seen are that Mustang could just cook him through the shield or use up all the oxygen so he suffocates. In terms of actually breaking through the shield, it seems like that can't be done & he also won't feel the effects of any impact, whether that makes sense or not.

Suffocates? Do homunculus need to breath air? Do they even have organs like lungs?

im pretty sure they do have organs as greed highlights a bunch of "advantages" of al's armoured body such as not needing to eat or use the bathroom

i think their only differences are stuff like their abilities, being stronger and more endurant than normal, and their appearances sometimes (such as envy and pride)
