It's probably not that funny as it was the first time, so it might be the last CRT on myself atp. I made some other revisions on my profile after AP upgrade, but this time it affects much more aspects than just one stat, it involves several upgrades, downgrades and even a new key. So I decided to make one more CRT to decide which changes are necessary/valid and which are not. Here's my profile for those who don't know

Durability and Combat Speed Upgrade

Kind of self-eplanotary. But to get into more details - I fell from a staircase, landed on my knee and my chest hit the railings which yielded approximately 2772 joules (I weigh 85 kg and fell from approximately 3,328 meters height). That's for the highest end dura, since most likely I would downscale from that value, since that fall was painful enough to make me worried about breaking my ribs (however they indeed withstood that damage and didn't even crack). So now 10-A dura gets absolutely removed and is gonna be replaced with 1313-2772 ends. Combat Speed got upgraded from 7,42 to 8,33 m/s after some training

Yep, those reasonings are good enough for an upgrade (agree): 2 @XxZetsuxX, @SatellaTheWoE

Nah, that's an outliers (disagree): 3 @Randomuser3412, @TheBoxofIncidents (Durability), @Oiguana2701

Move Durability to "possibly" section: 6 @Qurbonboev, @Mythic381, @Nonynho, @Edutyn, @Cipher72, @MaskedDragon908


Weakened Key

Unfortunately I'm far away from my prime, since I once again ruined my sleep regime and succumbed to my mental health issues. Either way, I got weaker one month ago or so, and here are some stats for that key

AP:

Gonna use KE for that key, since I couldn't break the same amount of ice from previous calc
Weight of my arm is approximately 4,9 kg
Combat speed is 8,33 m/s
KE = (4,9 * 8,33^2)/2 = 170 joules (10-A)

LS:
After becoming weaker I couldn't deadlift 90 kg, so I feel like I should downscale to 80 kg (Average - baseline Above Average)

Speed:
I became somewhat sluggish from lack of sleep, so I most likely gonna limit it to Average Human end

Durability:
Due to 10-A removal - it gets downscaled to 328 - 1313 joules

Stamina:
Varies from Below Average (I became a lot more sleepy and tired, to the point I barely move and just sleep all day) to Athletic (Despite that, I'm still capable of walking 40 km in some days for hours non-stop, althrough more sluggish than before)

Other stats are not affected by my slacking

"Add a new key, you FraudMaker" (agree with addition): 9 @Qurbonboev, @TheBoxofIncidents, @XxZetsuxX, @Mythic381, @Nonynho, @Edutyn, @Cipher72, @Oiguana2701, @MaskedDragon908

"Everyone have their bad days you know" (disagree with addition): 1 @SatellaTheWoE

Remove prime key and make this key your base:


New Weaponry

After coming back to my hometown for vacation, I had found some cool looking axes and a sledgehammer in the attic, so I decided to take them home, since my father allowed me to

That's a good addition to your inventory (agree): 9 @Qurbonboev, @TheBoxofIncidents, @XxZetsuxX, @Mythic381, @Nonynho, @Edutyn, @Cipher72 , @Oiguana2701, @MaskedDragon908

Nah, those things are useless (disagree):

Overhaul of Abilities and Resistances


Yep, some of them are turned out to be not practical enough, or they have fair share of anti-feats

Like this

Resistance to Social influence (He doesn't care about social status of people most of the time and considers everyone as equals)
Turns out I'm still susceptible to things like misinformation, ragebait and other things that involve some exploitation of my weaknesses. However I'm still capable of standing up for myself despite the odds and confront my (or someone's) abusers/enemies despite their threats, however it's still have some limits. Since I'm still capable of feeling fear and not completely immune to someone's intimidation (if my opponent is actually much stronger/skilled than me and it shows), since I'm not complete sociopath/psycopath who lacks those emotions
Resistance to Fear manipulation (After being pissed off enough forgets about his fear of opponents. Got desensitized to horrendous actions humans are capable of, since he heard about them way too often from young age and assumes that anyone can become like that, if they get affected by mental illnesses and won't seek help in time. Was unfazed by death threats from his enemies and still stood his ground against them. Saved his house from fire on several occasions)
Despite being desensitized to a KNOWLEDGE of someone's atrocious actions - I still most likely gonna end up at least somewhat disturbed/concerned if I had to actually face them off. On top of that, I have extremely stupid anti-feat of that regard - I'm irrationally afraid of dogs and rabies, to the point I would walk away the moment I see middle-sized dog barking (especially if it's a stray one) and paranoidly visit the doctor every time some animal bites me (even if it's domestic)
Possibly: Resistance to Disease manipulation (Almost fully recovered from pneumonia by himself, before discovering that he had it in the first place and spending 3-7 days in the hospital. As a child recovered from chickenpox in less than a week. Never got cavities untill becoming 20 years old)
I'm most likely no longer qualify for that resistance, since I get sick as often as any regular person of my age. On top of that, even those feats are way too limited and specific to be useful
Statistics amplification and Rage power (Fought on par with stronger opponents after being pissed off. Lifted his table with computer, printer, small locker and other things on top easier when he got enraged)
Do I need to explain that "seeing red" doesn't get you anywhere? The only thing it's good for - facing opponents despite all odds and at least trying to oppose them. That's the only (good) thing it does for me, other than that, it just ruins my mental health and possibly physical (headaches, insomnia and etc). Basically it doesn't grant me any physical advantage, except boosting my pain tolerance and maybe giving me some bit of Fear resistance (and even then it might be non-facor and be removed alltogether)

Remove allat: 5 @Randomuser3412, @TheBoxofIncidents, @XxZetsuxX, @SatellaTheWoE, @Oiguana2701

Make Rage Power give you limited Fear resistance: 1 @Cipher72

Keep everything, it's all limited anyway:

Something else (please specify):
4 @Qurbonboev, @Mythic381, @Nonynho, @Edutyn (remove everything except Fear resistance), 1 @Randomuser3412 (Remove everything except Resistance to Social Influence), 1 @MaskedDragon908 (Remove everything except Fear and Social Influence resistances)

Not gonna happen buddy. Normal ass humans have 50% of chance of surviving from 14.4 meter fall (which is almost wall level). One person survived 18km fall.
"Everyone have their bad days you know" (disagree with addition):
Unless, having weakened key adds more possible matchups, I don't think it does worth it.

At most limited

Rage power should go.
Agree with everything else

The thing is - we don't scale durability to "nearly died but somehow lived" things. In my case it's definetely isn't all that, just a very unpleasent feeling of pain, that I was able to walk off normally

Pretty sure it does

So, basically keep fear resistance and remove everything else?

However it's fine if you think it was a wank, due to distribution of fall damage

I almost started a lengthy argument, but remembered mid argument that we are talking about FC/OC profile. Just use that value as "possibly".
Pretty sure it does
Add it then

Yeah

That's a good addition to your inventory (agree)
Cool btw

I want to keep my profile somewhat realistic/grounded, so if it's a wank - it's gotta go. Just thought that feat was pretty decent for what it is, since it fits most durability requirements
 
Soooo like how do I go about this?
Are we taking real world events and applying them onto a profile (as in a 100% Human Being?)
Otherwise I agree with the removal of the durability scaling and the stuff within the post.

Yes

The thing is - I have some absurd durability feats IRL, that I have no idea how to scale normally and I no-sell my own punches
 
What do you think of Resistances overhaul (especially fear resistance)?
Fear manip resistence means you can remain unaffected by fear with no cause (E.G supernatural)

IRL doesn't have that thing, so uh, yeah the removal is warranted

Composite Human and Manatees have it though, so it's isn't really supernatural. However CH most likely completely lacks fear due to mental conditions, while manatees just don't really faced any threats naturally

That's fine

Those aren't the same situation. Composite Human has it from being predisposed via a condition to feel less fear than usual. Manatees have it for genuinely lacking something that humans have.
Fear Manipulation is often conflated with Social Influencing, despite them not being the same thing. Fear Manipulation requires a supernatural ability to inflict fear on the target. If someone with Fear Manipulation used it on you, you wouldn't resist it in the slightest.

So, I should keep resistance to social influence instead?

At most that's what you would get. Social Influencing doesn't really require a resistance to not be completely affected by. It's just a matter of personality a lot of the time.
You can keep it if you want.
 
Just thought it's alright if I add Fear resistance to profile, since I was unfazed by some life threatening events and pushed through fear on several occasions
 
disagree with dura downgrade, feeling sluggish shouldn't turn you into below average human level, i would say at best above average from athletic

agree with the rest so far

You kinda miss the point, I didn't got downgraded to 10-C in all stats (except stamina), I just got lower in my current tiers (basically got nerfed from 263 joules to 170, from 1313 joules to 328 joules, and etc)

What the hell happened to you to make you 4x weaker? Did you get your energy drained like Luffy after using Gear 5?

Insomnia. Also 328-1313 joules value came from my scooter crash feat, which I'm not really sure how fast I was going
 
I need 1 more vote in resistances section, since Fear resistance is way too debatable
 
Alright, Masked has reviewed the proposed changes.
They find themselves agreeing with Qurbonboev and Mythic381.

Possibly for Durability,
Agree to new key
Agree to new equipment
Removal of resistances

Some minor notes:
Fear Resistance is somewhat iffy, and Masked would prefer it to be Limited.
They would prefer a Limited Resistance to Social Influencing, as well, instead of a complete removal.
We all have our weaknesses.

Well, all those resistances were limited from the get go, just thought that some of them might be way too unrealistic to even be considered
