Erza's Durability Negation

[Reppuzan]

For the longest I found this to be questionable, and here's why.

The Wingblade Armor is stated to be able to strike targets without directly touching them. Thus, or so the explanation goes, it is able to bypass one's defenses.

However, there's no indication that it can just completely ignore one's durability. It can simply bypass things like blocks, barriers, or attempts to stop it by throwing something else in the way.

I can't recall any scans of it simply one-shotting anyone it comes across, since the members of Avatar are unusually weak compared to previous Dark Guilds and mainly served as a transition period to show the results of Fairy Tail's training.

I request that remove this and provide a better explanation, especially since literally every description of the powers on EVERY Fairy Tail page is ripped form the Fairy Tail wiki, which does not abide by our standards for explanations.

Actually I was wondering this myself, also how does her Nakagami armor ignore durability?

 

[Reppuzan]

@Knight

It's supposed to cut through virtually anything without exception including most forms of magic, hence it was able to overcome Minerva's space-bending defenses.

 

[Burning_Full_Fingers]

Wingblade shouldn't be durability negation, I've been saying this for some time now.

 

[LordGinSama]

@Repp Mind giving me a scan? I've been lots of people say that she cleaves through space and I've seen others say that she simply nullified Minerva's magic. :/ that's always confused me.

@Knight

"Are allowed to bend the laws of magic to their whim and perform miraculous feats"

Minerva's Territory Magic involves the manipulation of space.

Usually, attacks that cut through space are considered to cut through durability, since cutting through space means cutting through everything that occupied that space.

 

[Bepo4151]

I agree it shouldn't ignore durability and I had argued this in vs threads a lot in the past.

 

[Monarch_Laciel]

Did she cut through space, or cut through the magic that allowed the manipulation of space?

 

[LordGinSama]

Well it seems that she has the ability to manipulate space when she chooses to. With the second link you post it doesn't seem like she's controlling space in that panel. As for the other link I'm still not 100% sold on that. It just seems like she's dispelling it rather than slicing through it.

 

[Blanked]

I kinda go right now so i have no time to discus it. Someone inform Aiden about it.

Also she also succeded at hitting Ajeel who is intangible with Nakagami starlight.

 

[ALRF]

Hitting someone who is intangible doesn't mean it's dura negation.

 

[Soldier_Blue]

Also she also succeded at hitting Ajeel who is intangible with Nakagami starlight.

Ajeel wasn't intangible when Erza hit him with Nakagami Starlight. Just prior to that the guy got hit by Jupiter (which is a normal concussive blast).

 

[Soldier_Blue]

Did she cut through space, or cut through the magic that allowed the manipulation of space?

One of the Fiary Tail fodder characters in the audience explicitly states that Erza cut through space.

 

[ALRF]

So Erza cuts through space? Then i guess it should be better to change the description of her durability negation.

 

[Monarch_Laciel]

Normally I'd agree, but I'll be the devil's advocate here.

Why should we take the word of a random audience member who essentially falls under the same ranking as the squire from our statements page?

 

[Blanked]

One of the Fiary Tail fodder characters in the audience explicitly states that Erza cut through space.

Posting on my trash phone... Great.

That'd fodder is also beyond comparison intelligence wise in the entire FT verse also named Mavis Vermilion.

I will inform Aiden about this as he made the entire thing in the first place.

 

[ScarletFirefly]

Uhm, I think people are confusing Wingblade armor with Nakagami here...

And no Wingblade (the one that attacks with invisble stuff) does not ignore durability, it just bypasses defenses such as barriers and the like, so limited durability ignoring would be more applicable for that armor.

 

[Monarch_Laciel]

Righto, that's not squire rank then.

 

[Blanked]

I am about to enter Austria now so i won't be posting anymore... Aiden should deal with this when he sees my message.

 

[ScarletFirefly]

Here's what it should say:

Durability Negation (With Nakagami Armor (can cut through space) and to a limited extent with Wingblade Armor(can bypass defenses such as barriers and attack the opponent directly)).

 

[ALRF]

Don't think, you should add the Wingblade Armor, i believe that is more applicable for...Limited Power Nullification (With Wingblade armor, she can bypass defenses such as barriers and attack the opponent directly.)

 

[ScarletFirefly]

^Power Nullification implies she negates the defenses, but she doesn't, she just bypasses them, hence limited durability negation since it can't bypass the body's natural durability.

 

[ALRF]

In that case, this seems fine

 

[ScarletFirefly]

In that case, I will be closing this then. If Reppu or Aiden (since he was notified about this thread) have more to say, they can reopen it.

In case not, I will be applying the change on Monday since I can't right now. Or alternatively, anyone who can, is welcomed to do so.
