So Ever and I were just discussing, and may have found some significant Bayonetta upgrades and, looking over the lore and quotes of Father Balder, Jubileus, and Aesir, we believe we've found a massive upgrade for the god-tiers of the verse.
Jubileus' Lore:
Humanity, bound to the physical world, was forced to depict and describe her in its own tongue. It is supposed that humanity selected the name Jubileus, taken from the word jubilee, meaning a celebration of rejoicing, in an attempt to turn Divine Will into worldly happiness via repeated recital of His name. As a result of the cataclysmic events of the ancient First Armageddon, of which she sat at the very apex, Jubileus was forced into dominion over the world of Paradiso, governor of the light amongst the Trinity of Realities, and put into an endless slumber.
The First Armageddon was an ancient event that occurred from a time before history and led to the creation of the Bayonetta universe. As a result of an unequal balance of light and dark and a subsequent struggle between those forces, the First Armageddon caused reality to split itself into aspects of light, darkness, and chaos, Forming the Trinity of Realities and resulting in the destruction of the previous universe and the creation of the current one. Jubileus was at the center of this event when it occurred, but there's more.
It was from this point that the forces of light and dark began their endless battle for hegemony. The resurrection of Jubileus would trigger a reunification of the Trinity of Realities, fulfilling the desires of not only the forces of light, but also a centuries-old prayer said by those seeking divine intervention."
It is stated that when Jubileus is resurrected she would be able to reunite the Trinity into a single universe. This was Father Balder's motivation for resurrecting the deity, and he even states several times that he would use Jubileus' power to rewrite the universe.
"Jubileus will be resurrected, we will become the Eyes of the World, and a new universe will take hold!"
"Light, dark, and chaos between. Three realities once split shall be brought together to create a new universe in the image of the old."
"The time has come for Jubileus to return! At last, the Trinity of Realities will know their real ruler, and time will begin anew!"
"No one can control Jubileus now. Its power is too intense...Light, Dark, human. All the strife, all the struggle...The Trinities of Reality wrapped up in a vortex of creation!"
However, when Jubileus was revived she only had one of the Eyes of the World, and was therefore only at half power. If Jubileus is Universe level at full power, being at half power would make her Multi-Galaxy level, which would scale to Queen Sheba (Her stated equal), Bayonetta with the Left Eye (Fought and defeated Jubileus), Balder with the Right Eye (Equal to Bayonetta with the Left Eye), Loptr with the Right Eye (Comparable to Jubileus), and both Father Rodin (Stated to be just slightly weaker than Jubileus) and Rodin the Infinite One (Stated to be stronger than Queen Sheba).
Aesir's Lore:
"The Legend of Aesir... A legend from the dawn of time.
Nobody knows where the world came from. A struggle caused the Trinity of Realities to be split into three realms: light, darkness, and chaos. Obviously, our world was the one born from chaos. The three worlds all needed rulers. Most of all, ours. And the one that ruled the chaos became known as Aesir. Aesir spent the first eternity quietly looking upon the Earth from his holy mountain. Where we only see reality and make it match our rules of the world, Aesir saw through reality, and those visions became our world. These observations became Aesir's power. Aesir's eyes were truly the eyes that created the world."
Similar to Jubileus, Aesir was around at the time of the First Armageddon and was tasked with ruling the Human World, the chaos portion, one third of the universe. There is one part of his lore though that makes him different from Jubileus.
However, Aesir pitied the humans for their naivety and lack of free will, so the power he wielded was split into two equal halves and entrusted each to humanity's instincts: the Right Eye of Light, and the Left Eye of Darkness."
Aesir was the one who CREATED the Eyes of the World. The Eyes of the World that nearly gave Jubileus the power to rewrite the entire universe and merge the Trinity of Reality into a single realm under the rule of Paradiso. Not only that, but he also split his soul into two halves; Loki and Loptr. In the game Loptr managed to not only defeat Balder, who had the Right Eye at the time, but also absorbed it, and then defeated Bayonetta and absorbed the Left Eye, becoming Aesir once again. Jubileus with both Eyes would have had the power to rewrite the universe, so it's safe to assume that Aesir, the CREATOR of the Eyes, would have this level of power. He even goes so far as to state that his will would become that of the universe. With this it should be fair to say that Aesir, Omne (The demon used to destroy Aesir), and Bayonetta 2 Bayonetta and Balder (Both fought Aesir with the Eyes, Bayonetta briefly fought him on her own) can be changed to 3-A.
Conclusion: Jubileus, Queen Sheba, Bayonetta with the Left Eye, Balder with the Right Eye, Loptr with the Right Eye, and both Father Rodin and Rodin the Infinite One be moved to 3-B, while Aesir, Omne, and Bayonetta 2 Bayonetta and Balder be changed to 3-A.
