Hello again. I updated the
sky folk calc and responded to your questions about the
CSRC recalc. Let me know if the sky folk calc needs any more adjustments before it's useable.
For CSRC, perhaps I could've explained my methodology later. The calc came about after
a long debate about CSRC and the proper method. At first I suggested melting because Boros says he will shave the earth (crust specifically according to Qawsed) and I figured that it would be truer to form to calculate crustal destruction with the right method (Boros's normal method of attacking, which we agreed was melting in that thread).
Plus I figured it would yield higher results than the planetwide explosion method, which happened to be true.
But now, I have a few more reasons to support the recalc. Number 1- the ocean problem. It requires about 867 petatons to vaporize the oceans and expose the underlying oceanic crust, which is the majority of the planet's crust. Any attack that does not penetrate the depths of the ocean is not going to destroy the crust in its entirety, it may not even effect a majority of the crust. While 184 petatons might debatably destroy most of the crust without completely destroying the oceans, it seems simpler and surer to use my methods which would involve boiling away nearly all the ocean and devastating the overwhelming majority of the underlying upper crust (low end) or practically all the crust except the lower lithosphere (high end).
Furthermore, Qawsed also discovered a recent translation that describes CSRC as scorching the crust, which fits melting pretty well. The guidebook describes CSRC as "
The roar of despair that scorches the Earth". This is new information btw, Qawsed only discovered it a couple days ago.
Between the problems 184 petatons might have in actually destroying the entirety of the earth's crust and the descriptors about "shaving the crust" (ask Qawsed for specifics about this one) and "scorching" said crust, with melting being Boros's only known energy attack method- I think it makes sense to A) replace the explosion calc and B) implement the melting calc.
