Currently, the pillars are ranked at Tier 0. This doesn't make sense. Here’s why.
(All of my sources are from works written by Mctoran, the person who made the pillars and who makes up most if not all the sources on the pillars current profile.)
Primacy
Kei’, a pillar, is capable of being sealed. This would imply that the seal is stronger than Kei’. Obviously, if they were really omnipotent, this wouldn’t make sense. I know the counterargument would be “But he was sealed by the other pillars, who are of equal strength.” But if they were omnipotent, there wouldn’t be any other beings on their level of power. Which brings me to my next point.
Unity
The Pillars are said to be technically the same entity on their profile. If that was the case, they should share all the same characteristics and hold all the same qualities. However, they don't. Certain pillars can have avatars that other pillars do not have and embody things other pillars do not. In one tale, Kei’, a pillar, is imprisoned while the other pillars are not. Later, the pillars discuss placing another seal on Kei’, which wouldn’t make sense if they were all the same entity, as sealing Kei’ would seal all of them. So they must be separate entities, meaning they can't be omnipotent.
If the pillars were all the same entity, why would they be talking to themselves in this scene?
Immutability
Kei’, a pillar, was capable of being sealed. This is a change in status, from being free to being restrained, which should be impossible. Kei’ is also said by the narrator to feel uneasy after seeing the other pillars pull up, another change. Not only that, but Kei’ reacts to being freed by attacking the horned Keymaster, implying that they reacted to someone else's action in a linear fashion, yet another change.
Blanche, a pillar avatar who is the direct avatar for Azel’kyra (And by direct avatar I mean Azel’kyra controls her directly, like a player does a video game character), is also capable of having varying emotions in Mctoran’s works, like when she feels shocked.
Miscellaneous
If Kei’, a pillar, was really omnipotent, why would they be capable of being sealed at all? And why would they fail at erasing their avatar? And why would another entity be capable of freeing them by growing stronger and shattering the seal?
Also, if the pillars are truly omnipotent, why do they have a weakness section at all?
Conclusion
The pillars (Including The Terminus) would sit at High 1-A due to scaling above the maker. Their omnipotence would be removed.
