Change Mantis Shrimp Tier (And Size)

[Dinamic8000]

I din't think i needed to post a thread for that since it was a change in a Real World profile.

But anyways, Mantis Shrimp should be 9-C in Tier, AP and Durability, the profile (And literally every place you search) Say his punch is 1500 newtons, doing the calculations here we have 1269 joules, or Street Level, 9-C.

Also the article contradicts itself in the creature maximum length (18cm in the summary, 26cm in powers and abilities). Since we can assume this article represents all of the Mantis Shrimp species we can change that for 40cm that some species can reach

I don't know anything about Mantis Shrimp, but since you made me look at the profile: its limbs should definitely not be listed as standard equipment.
That implies it's equipment, first of all, and second that it could be restricted, which makes no logical sense.

Standard Equipment can't be restricted, actually. This still doesn't change the fact that it's dumb that it is listed as an equipment.

Oh you're right, you can only restrict optional equipment.
Yeah, regardless it's very odd to list your arms as standard equipment.

Apparently 1 newton doesn't necessarily equal 1 joule (Area also comes in the equation)

Anyways, this calculations show that the result is close to the 1500's and still Athlete level

And yeah, we can use the situation to request a change in that too

Disagree with the size thing because that is a spear using mantis shrimp whose hunting style is different from the smashers we are using also Underground Mobility and Additional Limbs due to beside the punch claws they have 8 maxillipeds, 6 walking legs, and 2 swimming legs because the other 16 limbs apparently weren't enough to swim
