Currently Prophet, the protaganist of the first and third Crysis games (technically he is possessing Alcatraz's body in the third game), has the following ratings:
He is scaling to the Alpha Ceph. I consider the Alpha Ceph's rating among the most obviously wrong ratings in the Wiki:
While it is true that the Alpha Ceph is a living reactor that can produce a massive amount of energy indefinitely, and wirelessly transmit it through the hivemind, this doesn't translate to short-range attacks or physical prowess. In fact, the Alpha Ceph was captured, locked in a cell, and had its energy drained by CELL. While it powers up a beam that forms a Einstein-Rosen Bridge in less than two hours, the energy was directed through a helix-like structure, and it did not demonstrate direct weaponization of this amount of energy.
To begin with, the Alpha Ceph was not hit by the Archangel or stated to be able to tank the satellite. The Archangel was going to destroy New York at 100% of its power, however a chain reaction with the ambient Cell energy will cause destruction in the Earth's crust. By default, chain reactions don't apply to AP.
We actually see the 5% discharge (after cancelling the strike midway, a 5% partial discharge was forced instead), and it just destroyed city blocks and a few skyscrapers instead of vaporize the entire city. It makes no sense for CELL, a greedy megacorporation who want to control Earth's politics and economics, to delibertly 'punch one hell of a hole' through Earth; it is just a chain reaction they didn't believe would happen.
As the logs show:
5% of the Archangel's power is not enough to destroy New York, and the Alpha Ceph was not even hit by it.
In other words, Alpha Ceph has no durability feats against the Archangel. In its boss fight, the Alpha Ceph can be damaged by human weapons like rocket launchers, and the stage even has a APC you can use. Prophet is supposed to fire at specific weakpoints of the Alpha Ceph to boot.
Conclusion: Massive downgrades.
Also, he got Country level in durability for extremely vague and thus unjustified reason [due to the events of Crysis 2]. Also Class K in Lifting Strength as if he was physically wrestling the Alpha Ceph and lifting it.
Attack Potency: at least Planet level, possibly Star level by the end of the game (Upon fully evolving and surpassing his limits, he defeated the Alpha Ceph all by himself) Lifting Strength: At least Class 50 initially (Easily pushed a giant train carriage and got it moving at top speed despite the train itself being stuck into place with over decades of rust), at least Class K+ by the end of the game (Fought against the Alpha Ceph) Durability: At least Country level (Due to the events of Crysis 2), at least Planet level, possibly Star level by the end of the game |
He is scaling to the Alpha Ceph. I consider the Alpha Ceph's rating among the most obviously wrong ratings in the Wiki:
Attack Potency: At least Planet level (Easily destroyed an entire facility and supplied energy for CELL and the entire Earth for more than two decades nonstop when it was dormant, the Archangel was feeding energy from it, the energy pillar it generated could destroy the Earth if there was a slight instability which would release a fraction of its energy and it stalemated Prophet with a fully-evolved and no-limiter Nanosuit 2), possibly Star level (Its mass-energy beam created a wormhole following the detection of Hawking radiation and the formation of a white hole) Durability: At least Planet level (It is unlikely that it can be destroyed by the orbital satellite superweapon Archangel, a weapon whose power at 5% can vaporize New York, punch one hell of hole through Earth, destroyed and launched a section its crust to space, destabilize and cause planetary destruction and even possibly destroyed the planet itself), possibly Star level (Stalemated by a fully-evolved Nanosuit 2) |

Abort NY Strike Dr. J Keane Members of the Board, My team have completed a number of detailed simulations to calculate the ffects of Archangel firing on New York. I must report that in one of these simulations the Archangel beam reacts catastrophically with the ambient energy inside the dome, and also with the Alpha Ceph itself (which, we must remember, is an incredibly powerful living reactor). The resulting detonation is of a magnitude great enough to destroy a section of the Earth's crust, and destabilize the entire planet as a result. Archangel's strike on New York must be aborted immediately. Dr. Keane |
Proceed with NY Strike Dr. Hurst Fellow Board Members, What the imaginative Dr. Keane doesn't mention is that the simulation he quotes was one of tens of thousands run by Liberty Dome systems to assess the outcome of the Archangel strike. Only this single simulation produced the outcome Keane mentions, with all others reporting nothing but a complete sterilization of the area as anticipated. The single simulation is a rogue result, and nothing to concern ourselves with. The Archangel strike will continue as planned. Dr. Hurst |
Urgent request Dr. J Keane Members of the Board, I must report that we have repeated our simulations to ascertain the effects of Archangel's imminent strike on New York. Based on revised data, there appears to be a significant risk of a blast causing a chain reaction and irreparable damage to the planet as previously reported. I now urgently request Archangel's fire authorization be revoked at once. Dr. J Keane |
Archangel firing as planned P. Danielweski Dr. Keane, We note your concern, and also the repitition of previously supplied information. Dr. hurst's team assures us that there is no cause for alarm. Archangel will fire on New York as planned. Mr. P Danielweski Secretary, CELL Board of Directors |
