The way I see it, I wouldn't be surprised if this battle plays out similarly to the fight against Amber, and how it ends. As we've seen, even one of the most powerful entities in RWBY was defeated by splash damage arrows, which had similar if not the same effect as Viridis'. She was busy fighting her opponent AND noticed the arrows mid-flight, but still couldn't do anything about it. The same thing would most likely happen to Orion if he fights Ulric, only Viridis has a far wider array of ammunition to make use of.

Vincent, don't forget that to get to Viridis from the start, Orion has to go past Ulric, and Liath's bombardment if he somehow manages to get in range that quickly. Even if he succeeds, they are completely divided, and he'll be putting himself in very unfavourable 2 vs 1 position.

And to Sideshot, if by 'nobody' you mean no one except Liath's creator saying that there is not fatigue caused in his first post, then yeah, I guess you're right. But seeing how a lot of the tactics used by Liath seem to be limited to him keeping up a never-ending artillery barrage, counters like 'burning the grass' are basically thrown out the window by the fact that, surprise surprise, a student at Beacon hasn't mastered his Semblance beyond fully trained huntsmen and the maidens.

And don't get me started on him using fifty glyphs at a time. That's stupid and you know it.
