Well the speed to me seems, questionable.

Not because I can't get behind it but because Jean being Rel utterly shatters the scaling for basically every character in the Pre and Post-Timeskip universes. Since through her and Scott everyone scale and through Wolverine everyone scales.

There's just far to much going against that rating in my view, especially when we get explicit scenes from Quicksilver who's nowhere near that fast.
 
Wolverine in this scene blocked Deadpool's optic blast, which it's a result of Cyclops' DNA. Quicksilver in this scene ran faster than Storm's lightning, and I don't know if this is usable but in a commercial video Quicksilver ran faster than Cyclops' optic blast. The feats are there, the problem is that they aren't calculated

Still has the same issues as I noted before.
Quicksilver in this scene ran faster than Storm's lightning
That scene is actually really bad to use. Since Storm's fall was effecting the lightning's movements and a taser Beast had fired was also moving relative to the Storm's attacks.
 
ut why would there be issues if it is consistent?
Because that's not consistency regarding them being Rel, that's consistency in that everyone can avoid Cyclops' optic beams.

Those characters are still tagged by bullets, cars, other people and plastic projectiles. If Mangeto and Wolverine can casually block lightspeed attacks how are plastic bullets a threat to them?

Its not narratively consistent.
 
Couldn't it just be that Cyclops can actively control his beam's speeds with his visor, and Deadpool can control it because he has no brain damage related injury to worry about to begin with?

I mean, this point pops up a lot, but as the easiest possible counterargument: Why would Cyclops hold back his beam speed on someone he objectively doesn't like such as Magneto or Sabertooth and why would Deadpool hold back on Wolverine?

Well, 1. Scott would like to finish the job as precisely as possible without causing much damage

and 2. There's still Stryker controlling him via keyboard and he wants to get out alive without a reactor slamming down on his ass.

How would a SoL energy attack cause more damage? Its speed and not power.

That has nothing to do with Deadpool holding back his beam's speed though. The only indication that might have is holding back power.

Based on the fact that Scott's powers are uncontrollable without him using a visor due to his head injury?

I mean, DP in that instance can't do anything because he's literally wired up to Stryker's computer.

The visor just limits the size of the beam (and therefore power), not the speed of it.

That doesn't counter my point at all. Why would Strkyer have DP hold back the speed of his beams?
 
I can't apply the changes because there are slur words, but I don't know what they are, I need help with that
