Regarding Shinra's Adolla Burst

In a vs battle where Shinra would use his adolla burst against someone that is at FTL speed how would the interaction go? Would they be able to react to Shinra's adolla burst or would he still be effectively stopping time?

also on another note, why was this calc approved?

on his profile he has FTL speed and time stop, so it should still work on an FTL opponent

what's wrong with it?

He does that feat in base not while using adolla burst so it shouldn't be used as the basis for his adolla burst scaling. Also the calc uses relativistic speed so it isn't even really relevant to his attack potency while amped with the adolla burst.

yes but in verse his ability works with him essentially stopping time because he is FTL. So technically he isn't really a FTL character that happens to have time stop but rather he has time stop because he is FTL.

as far as i can tell it's just a case of him carrying his verse mechanics with him whenever he goes into a cross-verse fight. in his verse, FTL = timestop so he gets timestop as an ability for being able to go FTL

the scan used in the calc just establishes that "this verse treats KE as a real thing and doesn't ignore it, therefore calculating his adolla burst's AP using KE is valid", it's relevant
his power when using adolla burst to travel at >Relativistic speeds would be higher than when he's only going at relativistic speeds, we just can't use SoL or higher in the KE formula bc it breaks

captain burns only scales to the 7-A rating with his stages 4 and 5, because only in stages 4 and 5 does he take hits from an adolla burst amped shinra. stages 1 2 and 3 just upscale from his normal 7-C rating.

no but then wouldn't base shinra have 7-A as the scaling since he is already at relativistic in base.
 
the way it's being used right now is calc stacking though
how so? we know factually that, when shinra gets a boost from grace, he accelerates through relativistic speeds and approaches the speed of light (where he breaks down) and then crosses it into FTL (where he reforms)
from that, you don't have to do any calculation to know he's going at relativistic speeds via grace, hence no stacking
