These changes seem goodAight guys, finally getting to my proposed changes/compromises/etc.
Hag and Ham
These guys stay the same nothing is wrong with them.
78.2 ZT for them both
Madara
I'm still convinced he should be where I initially proposed him to be. The reasoning here very much still holds:
Particularly the bolded portions are what has me sold on Juubidara's scaling. With 1 Rinnegan he's implied to be closer to Hag in power than he is far from Hag in power (implying a half relativity), and then he unleashes the true power of the Six Paths (Hag) with both eyes. It's extremely consistent with the narrative and multitude of statements. Furthermore, Naruto and Sasuke cannot serve as limiters as they didn't just receive half of Ghost Hag's chakra but they received new transformations and eyes as well. The halves of Hag's chakra meshed with Naruto and Sasuke's own chakra elevating to new heights.Madara
The imgur explains the reasoning behind my premise, but to put it simply, Dual Rinnegan Juubidara (the strongest we see him get) scales to Hagoromo through this scaling chain:
One Rinnegan Juubidara = close to Hagoromo < Shinju-Absorbed Juubidara < Dual Rinnegan Juubidara ~ Hagoromo = 5-B
Via pure power scaling, specifically the bolded portion, it should be abundantly clear that Juubidara at his peak should be scaling relative to Hagoromo. Doubly so when you consider Juubidara got beyond a “one shot” level amp from single Rinnegan to two Rinnegan (went from being obliterated by SPSM Naruto’s Rasenshuriken with one eye to being able to fight both SPSM KCM Naruto and Rinnegan Sasuke simultaneously). Juubidara being close to Hagoromo’s power and then receiving a beyond “one shot” level amp should be enough evidence alone to scale peak Juubidara to Hagoromo.
Furthermore, the narrative around Juubidara’s ever increasing power is that he wants to obtain a power similar to that of Kaguya. We see this brought to the forefront as Juubidara gets betrayed and defeated by his own hubris (manifested in the form of Madara believing Black Zetsu is his will alone and that he cannot be used like he used Obito). Then Naruto flashes back to Hagoromo claiming Madara is nearing his own power, to Hagoromo claiming that Madara wants to get Kaguya’s power but that Kaguya’s power gives rise to self-destruction through hubris. This is what literally happens, Madara obtains Hagoromo’s power and when he tries to go further and obtain Kaguya’s power, he is undone by the rise of his own hubris. The narrative of Madara’s rise to power is that he climbs to the Sage of Six Paths level only to be overwhelmed and consumed in pursuit of Kaguya’s power.
But wait, there’s more! The databooks themselves directly state that when Juubidara got both eyes he unleashed the true power of the Six Paths, which heavily implies and all but directly confirms that Dual Rinnegan Juubidara reached Hagoromo’s power level. Six Paths refers to Hagoromo inherently, as Hagoromo is the Sage of Six Paths, and the namesake of those famous powers as known by the ninja world. Thus, awakening the true power of the Six Paths would inherently refer to unleashing the actual power of Hagoromo. Again this adds just further layers of consistency to Madara being this strong.
Additionally, Dual Rinnegan Juubidara casually spreads the God Tree roots around the world with his own energy. This feat is calculated to Small Planetary as a lowball. This feat serves as a solid supporting feat to the scaling I’m proposing for Madara. The preponderance of evidence for Madara scaling to Hagoromo is ever-so-increasing.
Finally, to touch upon Juubidara with a single Rinnegan. Hagaromo states he's getting close to himself in power, if Madara is nearing Hagaromo in power that would imply he's closer to Hagoromo in power than he is further from Hagoromo in power. This would mean One Rinnegan Juubidara should be over half way to Hagoromo's power. As consequence of this Night Guy would scale as well, since he was breaking Madara's body.
To conclude everything I’ve brought up, via powerscaling, narrative intent, and statements, Dual Rinnegan Juubidara is put on the same level of power as Hagoromo. One Rinnegan Juubidara scales above a power that rivals Hagoromo and is getting close to Hagoromo himself, and upon receiving multiple huge amps awakens to Dual Rinnegan Juubidara, unleashing power on par with Hagoromo, until eventually in attempts of pursuing a power beyond Hagoromo he falls to his own hubris. Therefore, Dual Rinnegan Juubidara should scale to Hagoromo. As far as quantifying weaker forms of Juubidara, I’m neutral on that and am open to suggestions.
39.1 ZT for 1 Rinnegan, 78.2 ZT for 2 Rinnegan
Guy
He gives 1 eyed Madara the hands with the 8 gates, his proposed scaling is the same.
39.1 ZT for Night Guy
Kaguya
Her scaling isn't controversial, it's simple, and it remains the same.
78.2 ZT for her
Naruto and Sasuke
I touched on them a little bit in Madara's section, but they just scale to Madara. Again, them receiving Hag's power on top of their own power and evolving into new forms does not limit them to just Hag's power.
78.2 ZT for them
Toneri
Personally I think "At least Low 5-B+, possibly 5-B" for his TCM for the same reasons I mentioned in the OP is best for him.
39.1 ZT, possibly 78.2 ZT
Naruto the Last
He just scales to TCM Toneri with his BSM, nothing complicated.
39.1 ZT, possibly 78.2 ZT
Sasuke the Last
Sasuke with Six Paths powers should scale above BSM Naruto, and I think it's stated he's Kakashi's best pupil or sumn like that during this era (it's deep in this thread). Furthermore, he should simply scale at least to his teen self as he has had more time to acclimate to his powers and he hasn't been stagnate in his worldly travels.
78.2 ZT for Sussy
Sasuke the Burrito
This is where a lot of the change comes from and where I think a lot of the dissenters will be pacified. I'm going to propose that Adult Sasuke simply scales to/above his teenage self, and keep his scaling to Kinshiki, rather than deal with the mental battles of scaling him to Fused Momo. Him and Kinshiki are able to consistently match each other anyway, and the manga portrays Fused Momo as slightly stronger than Sasuke. I think this will solve a lot of the "issues" he brings downscaling other characters to him. I then think no Rinnegan Sasuke should just downscale to baseline, as he's still a threat to some of the Boruto God Tiers. Also, Sasuke only fights Kinshiki with his base Sharingan + tomoe Rinnegan, meanwhile in the anime he matches fused Momo with his EMS + tomoe Rinnegan, so that form will scale to Fused Momo, and then a likely rating to Naruto based on statements that imply equality.
59.44 ZT ~ no Rinnegan Sasuke < no tomoe Rinnegan Sasuke < Rinnegan with tomoe Sasuke >= 78.2 ZT < EMS + Rinnegan with tomoe Sasuke ~ 156.4 ZT, likely 312.8 ZT
Sakura and Shin
I urge you to read this post as it words it better than I ever could: https://vsbattles.com/threads/award...vements-of-success.140047/page-8#post-4960978
shoutout to @Gokukid2005
But following his proposals, Sakura would scale above the no tomoe Rinnegan Sasuke levels of power (considering chapter 9 implies she was clashing with Shin while he was using his MS to control a bladed arm) and the databooks imply Sakura reached similar levels as Naruto and Sasuke. Meanwhile Shin could pierce Naruto's KCM cloak with his MS, something that not even Teen Sasuke could do with a Chidori (albeit Naruto wasn't exactly paying attention), so his MS should be scaling around teen Sasuke. For the sake of safe lowballs, I'll simply scale them above no Rinnegan Sasuke.
59.44 ZT for Adult Sakura and Shin's MS
Momo and Kin
Their scaling stays the same, more concretely rooted in Kinshiki's fight with Sasuke.
78.2 ZT for base Momo and Kin, 156.4 ZT for Fused Momo
The Kage
Tsuchikage burnt Kinshiki with her jutsu so her jutsu scales, and she debatably harmed him with a punch, although the consistency of that is questionable. Mizuke stabbed Kinshiki with his jutsu so his jutsu scales, he also likely downscales from Kinshiki's physicals. Raikage could match weapon clashes with Momo so he scales. Gaara blocked Fused Momo's punch with his sand, but has no feats for his physicals.
possibly 78.2 ZT, 78.2 ZT with Jutsu for Kurotsuchi
likely 59.44 ZT, 78.2 ZT with Jutsu for Chojuro
78.2 ZT for Darui
156.4 ZT with Sand for Gaara
Naruto the Burrito
His scaling is staying the same, 50% base outscales all the other Kage vs Fused Momo in terms of physicals, 50% SPSM KCM just dunks on Fused Momo, and then Baryon Mode coccslaps Isshiki. Dropping the possibly tier 4 stuff for now, might return to it once we figure everything else out. Also, Naruto without Kurama is just base Naruto for all intents and purposes.
156.4 ZT in base, higher with Sage Mode, 312.8 ZT with SPSM KCM, at least 3.218 YT with Baryon Mode for Naruto
Shikamaru
He restrains Otsutsuki and he is capable of crushing the heads of the other Kage and Naruto needed SPSM KCM to break out of it. Shikamaru's shadows blatantly scale to the likes of Darui via those statements.
78.2 ZT with Shadows
Hokashi
Kakashi likely scales comparable to base Koji, but considering the ambiguity of the fight, I'm fine with either dropping Kakashi or just possibly scaling him to Koji. Also by Hokage Kakashi I mean Boruto era Kakashi lol
either no or possibly 312.8 ZT for Kakashi
Urashiki
Personally, I find the "he's inconsistent" to be a complete and utter cop out when tmk the series goes out of their way to explain how he gets poisoned and nerfed throughout the arc. However, I do not care at all for Urashiki and as such am dropping him unless someone wants to drop an imgur scan dump scaling Urashiki and proving his nerfed showings aren't anti feats.
Jigen/Isshiki
His scaling stays the same, dunking on Naruto and Sasuke, and contesting Koji while extremely nerfed.
at least 156.4 ZT in base, at least 312.8 ZT with Karma, 3.128 YT with Otsutsuki form for Jigen
at least 3.128 YT for Isshiki
Cyborgs, Boruto, and Kawaki
Their scaling is all remaining the same as the OP, not really much to rehash, since 99.99999% of discussion has been "raaaa Shin and Sakura"
