I was checking out how Genshin Impact is tiered, and the verse sure looks incredibly overpowered by the feats we're shown: the LOWEST feat in the setting is Razor apparently conjuring nimbustratus clouds while striking downwards. The lowest speed feat is an in-game ability to dodge lightning bolts, which any player character can perform.
However, there are problems with both these calculations: when the character in-game "dodges lightning", this is objectively speaking aim-dodging. The player has not reacted to the falling lightning, rather they are shown where it is aimed and can leave the way or perfectly time a dash or skill/ult to gain i-frames. This is not a player performing lightning dodging feats, this is textbook aim-dodging. Furthermore, this feat does not actually scale to anyone but the Traveler. This is because countless cutscenes imply that the Traveler isn't actually fighting with a four-people team, but rather alone. The Plane of Euthymia is only entered by the Traveler, not by the team the player creates to enter it: other people are left out. The Traveler also fights Childe alone, among many other occurrences. Canonically, we are best off assuming that the Traveler actually fights alone unless otherwise specified, accompanied only by the non-combatant Paimon.
As for Razor's feat, it has been pointed out by others that since the clouds come out before Razor strikes the ground, this feat shouldn't scale to the physical capabilities. I would further add that this feat seems very much like an aesthetic flair and may not be literal: Razor doesn't in any way extract electricity from the clouds he allegedly summons, nor does he use them for anything in the move whatsoever. They're just there for appearance and have no bearing in the power of the attack. As such, we might assume they are also only shown at all because it looks cool, not because Razor is powerful enough to create clouds.
So I'd like to ask: what would Genshin Impact's scaling look like without these two feats which could easily be deemed to be outliers, or exaggerations/hyperboles, or non-literal, or game mechanics?
And I would like to request a verse-wide downgrade for Genshin Impact!

, I'm just trying to get at it makes no sense for someone with all these points backing him up to be around Hilichurl level, his character story also states he's learned in Martial arts whole journeying with Alice, so yeah he's comfortably Trained Vision user level
