8-C Wander?

[Creaturemaster971]

Why on Earth is Wander listed as 8-C for killing the Colossi?

Not only are the Colossi not all 8-C, with some being above or below said tier, but Wander by no means fights the Colossi on even terms.

If a mouse crawled up on a person and bit them on some insta-kill nerve that only required the slightest breaking of the skin to injure and thus take down the human, that wouldn't make the mouse 10-B.

That's essentially what Wander is to the Colossi, and yet he's listed as 8-C, implying that he could just one-shot Cenobia with a solid punch at most, which is obviously not the case in-game.

The man can't even fatally injure a horse with a full sword swing, so he'd be 9-C at the absolute most with weapons.

Plus, it's implied in-game that the only way Wander over Yonder can even damage the Colossi is because his sword is full o' magic.

I agree with the OP.

 

[Jackythejack]

Then what would his tier even be?

 

[Crimson_Azoth]

Scale him to real life swords and make the dude 9-C

 

[Jackythejack]

But he'd still have his 8-C key or...?

 

[Crimson_Azoth]

As the big monster? Ja.

 

[Jackythejack]

''how dare you do this after I finish my match with him''

 

[Crimson_Azoth]

Oh... sorry

 

[Creaturemaster971]

Oh, sorry about that

 

[QrowBarr]

Agreed with this.

To be fair, necroing a bit, Wander has some superhuman feats, since he (ignoring the gameplay feats) can maintain his grip on the Colossi while they are shaking desperately for their lives and survive Phalanx sinking into the sand at full speed.

Also, the Massively Hypersonic needs to go - the lightning blasts Wander dodges, from Basaran, Malus and Pelagia, are all electric blasts that have no reason to be considered real lightning.

 

[Creaturemaster971]

That is true, so I have no doubt he's at least Wall level durability, but definitely not 8-C in AP

 

[Crimson_Azoth]

He goes to 9-A with feats, but the ICO revisions really need to get off the ground first

 

[QrowBarr]

Someone should calc Cenobia's pillar smash, could probably net something like 9-B+ or even 9-A.

Couple of 9-B to 8-C feats in there

 

[Jackythejack]

Ooooo those seem interesting. Downgraded unfortunately but they seem interesting.

 

[Kepekley23]

Why not scale Gaius's sword weight and the KE from him slamming it?

 

[Crimson_Azoth]

I am working on other calculations like Gaius swinging his sword, Cenobia busting some walls, Dirge tunnelling through the sand and Malus's fireballs, however, don't want to flood a single blog with 1 million calcs
