This will be AP/dura only, but I might do one on abilities.
Feel free to bring up any other points, because the verse is in need of a big revision.
Where should Anthrax (and everyone by extension) scale?
Above the main cast's Large Country level ratings to some degree. Even a single cell of Anthrax grown out of Kall-Su was stronger than Kall-Su, DS, Arshes, etc and a spell bound that almost rivalled its power could withstand a single Halloween, while Kall described its full power as immeasurable. It's also worth noting that Anthrax in its prime is a full body + the power of its fleet, making a full strength Anthrax way stronger than just its completed body—able to scorch most of the planet in about a week.
It also destroyed continents in a matter of hours upon awakening.
If this is the case, then why was Lars able to one-shot an angel with the same rank as Anthrax? Idk, but they're parts of Anthrax's fleet. It could also just be PIS because even goons that were beaten by DS could rip them apart, and then proceed to fight angels 20 times more powerful. It's even stated that DS was their best bet.
DS' attacks should have a different level, or at least some kind of up to rating, or just different ratings for certain spells. For example, Megadeath, which isn't even DS' most powerful spell, requires two opposing deities and can't be performed by Arshes Nei without the Thunder Sword. Most of his spells absolutely pale in comparison to Megadeath, let alone Halloween and Black Sabbath (his two strongest spells at the time).
Now, to expand on my previous point about Anthrax boosting DS' abilities, I think it should honestly be a new key since Anthrax is active up to DS' death. During Anthrax's full resurrection, DS' abilities were boosted to the point where he could easily stomp the former, and channel the power of his friends to an even greater level than they could.
As for his pre-Anthrax feats.
He tanks one of Anthrax's attacks without a spellbound at his peak.

Beginning of Series
Anthrax
It's revealed in THE TALE OF CRIME AND PUNISHMENT - THE EXREME LIMITS that the story of the Dragon Knight was mostly a fabrication (it's implied they fought at some point, and Anthrax did cause immense destruction that far surpasses nuclear weaponry). In truth, the angels arrived and massacred most of humanity, and the Dragon Knight didn't stop it in a climactic battle. This was foretold by prophecies. Technically, this isn't even something on the level of an Archangel because they were involved in the extermination campaign as well and defeated weakened Lucifer on Earth.Where should Anthrax (and everyone by extension) scale?

Dark Schneider (+ Lars Scaling Downgrade)
Magic/Anthrax Key
DS wasn't really weakened. Even before he was sealed, Kall-Su was regarded as a rival, and BoS DS is superior to Kall-Su. In fact, DS was a lot stronger than his supposed prime 15 years ago during the whole Anthrax saga because (as even he admits) Anthrax's partial resurrection greatly increased his abilities to the point where chapters are named after it. Though it's likely that his Halloween still has the same potency, since Black Sabbath > Halloween, and DS + Arshes' Halloweens were almost 2x stronger than BS.If this is the case, then why was Lars able to one-shot an angel with the same rank as Anthrax?

Durability
Especially prior to his Anthrax boost, DS is a glass cannon, as Arshes and DS himself were able to inflict normally fatal injuries with just their physical strength, while using Halloween at full power was wrecking his body. He even all-but admits that Arshes' Megadeath would've killed him if he didn't set up a barrier, and amped Kall splits him in two (he's amped to a similar degree). Even his barriers aren't strong enough to withstand spells on the scale of Halloween or Black Sabbath.As for his pre-Anthrax feats.
- Darth Schneider practically tanked an attack from Osborn that further blackened the skies of the city (the skies were already blackened, but those clouds disappear after his death anyway). Osborn was powerful enough that even the Riders of Havok were in awe that he was killed at Metallicana, and prepared to fight DS after even after he performed a first-class spell. It's also shown that DS using the same spell similarly creates a storm that dwarfs Metallicana when it wasn't covered before.
- His barriers could tank attacks from Efreet, whose abilities are twice as hot as DS', and his even more potent Hellion. DS himself could withstand said Hellion and the amplified Exodus that reached 20,000 C (Japan uses Celsius).
