Titan Quest: Overhaul of outdated Player character

[GoldenScorpions]

Back in 2019, I made a profile for the Player character from the hack and slash action RPG "Titan Quest".
While I had successfully listed all the abilities from the game on the profile at the time, both in the P&A and Notable A/T sections, standards have evolved for both the website and myself, and the page now is both lacking in detail and outdated (the game has received expansions and DLCs over the years that add abilities). The profile's AP is also inaccurate due to a past misinterpretation on my end.

As such, I have worked to revamp the profile (New version)

• Reformatting the P&A section, giving proper details and values about each ability, split between the different groups of powers from the game (descriptions are translated into VSB abilities and vocabulary, and what they actually do)
• Simplifying the Notable A/T section (the descriptions all come from the in-game descriptions of the abilities and touch upon what they do)
• Correcting the AP, coming from a mistake (The Player defeats Typhon, who did this). Back when I made the profile, I was incorrectly under the impression that Character A simply inflicting some harm on a higher-tier Character B wasn't enough for A to match B (with the flawed logic that because the Player defeats Typhon over dozens or hundreds of attacks, Player couldn't be the same tier). I have since learned that isn't the case, and since Player did harm and defeat Typhon, he should be the same tier. I'm also switching the "possibly 5-B" to a simple "possibly higher", because the feat being referred to is too vague to give an accurate tier.

if you're able to can you please add scans to the P&A otherwise the MHS would need a calc for dodging cloud to ground lightning and scans should be provided for the lightning Speed statement

as far as lifting the the Earth goes, its not actually 5-B btw. Assuming average height and that he's lifting that weight above head height at least this is what you'd get.

Earth Mass: 5.972e+24kg (Class Z) Lifting Strength
Average Height: 1.71m

PE = (mass in kg) * (height in meters) * (gravitational acceleration).

5.972e+24 * 1.71m * 9.81m/s^2 = 1.00146686598e+26 Joules or 23.9356 Petatons of TNT (Multi-Continent level)

that said you again want actual proper scans linked to so that any actual calcs can be approved to give the rating

Thanks for responding, Dale
Regarding the two abilities mentioned in the Speed section, here are their descriptions from the game. For now, I have added them to the new profile blog

On this video timestamp, you can see a use of the bolt

For LS, I hadn't thought a value was possible due to the mythology-inspired "the world itself, earth and sky" statement not being realistic, but it's true we can instead use the planet for an approximation. Thank you for that.

this seems pretty instant so it probably shouldn't scale to normal combat speeds and reactions, and should just be attack speed with Lightning Bolt.
Otherwise the rest of that works fine just add those scans in the profile now.

no problem, at the least it works for a lowball

Looks good

It makes sense for the attack speed; I will include the scans.
I will just add that some enemy monsters have access to this same Lightning Bolt spell against the player, and it's dodgeable.

This seems fine at a glance.

Thank you for your help!
I have applied the new version of the profile, including the discussed aspects (minus the world-lifting for now).

This is the in-game quote about "lifting the world"

Looks good, I'll properly blog the world lifting feat for CGM evaluation sometime later today

Roger that. Thanks!
