I had this question, and I keep finding problems with the answers given so far.

But like, every example we have of a monster both using projectiles and physically attacking you has the monster deal about the same damage.
That's not my prefered solution.
What I want is for Sans' page to take an interpretation for him dealing 1 point of damage to Frisk while ignoring their...
Guys, let me recap the arguments for why Sans' page is the way it is:
"Sans' telekinesis deals one point of damage like any of his other attacks and is also done with magic, why is it rated higher than his other attacks?"
"That's because Sans regular attacks ignore Frisk defense in order to...

Oh yeah, I almost forgot.
I linked to the check stats of Greater Dog and Vulkin, showing that a monster can attack you without meaning to harm you.
I have no idea why people are having a hard time seeing the images, I'm just linking to the images shown in that blog that has all of Undertale's...
As I was writting my response, I came to the conclusion I just don't care anymore.
I'm not "sad" or "frustrated", just... drained. I cannot bother to write down why I disagree with your explanations anymore.
I guess I'll just wait for more people to reply, and see of other people have the...
???
"Technical"?
Something that meets the criteria to be considered something is that something.
At what point does the game say that an attack is exclusively harmful things contained within bullet patterns and nothing else?
Because last I checked, this is called an attack.
Again, does harming...

Ok, I think I'm feeling better now.
An attack is an action done with the intent of harming someone or something (Though not always). This is an attack, this is an attack, and this is an attack.
And even if you somehow argue that that last one shouldn't be considered an attack (Even though is...
Wow, I feel bad.
Like, physically bad. I have a cold and my body is in pain, I'm in no condition to keep going in this thread for now.
Do we close it or what?
Do you undersand how invincibility frames work?
No, I don't mean in Undertale, I mean in videogames in general.
You get hit, your invincibility frames kick in. If something damages you, whatever it might be, your invincibility frames will be triggered.
If you want to claim that something that...
I like the implication that slamming someone against a wall would have a different result to slamming a wall against someone.
So the 9-A should be removed from Sans' profile.
Well, I'm sure you have examples to back that up, right?
Cool, I'm still not comparing the attacks, but it's effects.
Buddy, you said:
AKA, impact against a physical object can't trigger invncibility frames. I showed you instances of impact against physical objects triggering invincibility frames.
Then it doesn't matter how much effort Sans puts into his attacks, he will always deal the same damage.
Pick one...
Yes, we do.
I'm sorry, did you just say that Sans has an attack potency of 0 joules? What?
It does. You can see it.
Unless ignoring invincibility frames ISN'T ignoring durability.
I'm not comparing attacks, I'm comparing the effects of attacks
So the argument is that only contact with magical attacks (Or bullets, as Flowey and the Library call them) triggers invincibility frames, right?
That's... what?
Shouldn't the wording be along the lines of "9-A after several uses of Telekinesis" or something like that then?
Ok, I'll refrase...
Ok.
By ignoring invincibility frames like his TK does, right?
Ok.
Ok, I see I have to refrase:
When gauging power of a character, we don't take into account the means to pull of a feat (As long as it is feasible in a fight), but it's end result. So for example, if you damage a character that...
Fair, though is weird that you call Sans' attacks 9-B when they are rated 10-B outside of telekinesis.
Again, why are you saying that dealing 1 point of damage against Frisk is the justification for his telekinesis to be 9-A, while saying that dealing 1 point of damage is the justification for...
Charmander.
Buddy.
Please stop and read.
The propouse of this thread is to answer a question: Why is telekinesis, which is magic and deals as much damage as any other of Sans' attacks, considered to be so much stronger?
Your answer was that Sans' regular attacks only deal the minimum ammount...
That's not what I said.
I said, based on the information you gave me, that the 9-A in Sans profile shouldn't be there because 9-A is used to measure AP, not LS
Hey hey hey hey hey! Don't change what the hax is mid argument. Is either telekinesis or is gravity manipulation.
Yes, that minimum...
Ok, slight correction:
Touching Sans' attacks for one frame deals 1 damage, AND adds 6 points of karma. However, the draining effect of karma kicks in several frames after you already take damage, so karma is not what allows Sans to deal 1 damage.
This video shows it best (Use "," and "." to...
Umm... Newton's third law?
The force Frisk is enduring when hitting the wall/floor/ceiling is equivalent to the force their body is exerting on the wall/floor/ceiling, which comes from Sans telekinesis.
Well, for me it doesn't even make sense to make a physical/magical distinction when Sans IS made out of magic, but that's a topic I don't want to discuss here.
...telekinesis for being able to harm Frisk with it.
So I'm wondering why his telekinesis is considered so much stronger than his other attacks when:
*Is done with magic like any of his other attacks (Unless the implication is that his telekinesis is not magic).
*It deals the same damage as any...
If DT is Soul Power, and Asriel had enough power to take down the entire village, he had to be determined. If he wasn't determined, then he shouldn't have access to that power.
Despite everything but Asriel's motivation to go to the Surface (Which is something only he and Chara knew) matching...
Because everyone and their mother is saying that DT is Soul Power. Stick to it or drop it, don't do both.
And I doubt that that those monsters saw Asriel leaving Chara's corpse in the center of the village, him not fighting back or him smiling and returning. Almost as if they knew more than...
