Scales to like everyone in Dark Souls 3 because they can all dodge this lightning magic. Discuss.

As an extensive fan of the series who has played all three games several times and researched the lore immensely, I can find myself in agreement to this upgrade, if the calculation is correct, at least.

You can ask the other calculation group members to take a look at this. It seems reasonable to me though, but I am the wrong person to ask.

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before and it has little to do with this calc, but couldn't a case be made for the Ashen One having Massively Hypersonic reactions (and maybe combat speed?) for being able to dodge the Nameless King's lightning strike attack? The one where he lifts his electrified blade and calls down a lightning bolt on the player's location.

I mean, we have plenty of evidence pointing towards the fact that its real lightning:

a) *SPOILERS* The Nameless King is the son of Gwyn, Lord of Lightning and in the description of the Dragonslayer Swordspear it says that he is the heir of lightning. This and the fact that his arrival summoned a storm implies that he can actually control lightning.

b) There is a storm right above the arena.

c) The lightning strike comes down from the storm clouds above, not from the King himself.

Not sure if this warrants an upgrade but yeah, its something.

@Final I did not know this. Thank you for that. I'll see if I can calculate it.

@LordXcano Cool cool. One thing to note when you get down to doing the calculation is that the arena they fight in is located on Archdragon Peak. This area is situated on the peak of a massive mountain, so you might want to take that into consideration if you have to calculate the distance to the clouds.
