It isn't assuming when we know that the people Cinder works for knows who Qrow is. How about you explain why Salem wouldn't tell Cinder about the only person who would be protecting Amber?Damage3245 said:

Its not just scaling off of a reaction, Cinder has fought people as well with only half the maiden's power and then killed the holder of the other half of her powerDargoo Faust said:

Since when was Qrow's official job to just protect Amber? Sorry, but I actually don't remember that being stated in the show.TheRustyOne said:
And maybe Salem did tell Cinder about Qrow's existence, maybe not, but Cinder being aware of who Qrow is, isn't proof that Qrow is comparable to a Maiden.
Emerald and Mercury were able to avoid his sword when he swung at them, I assume he wasn't holding back then?

I would much rather have a new calc for the professional huntsmen rather than scaling them to something that is in-canon far beyond their level.
The best justification I've seen in this thread is just how Salem and Co. have reacted to them, which is laughable evidence for scaling or a tier.

She killed Amber when Amber was in a borderline coma and in no place to defend herself - and was having her soul/aura drained from her.WeeklyBattles said:

Yes, Salem knows that only Raven and Qrow look out for Maidens. Ozpin choose them because he gave them the ability to turn into birds.
Salem even said that Qrow and Raven were Ozpin's eyes and with Qrow being poison, his last eye was now blind.

@Dargoo Are you reading what im saying to you? Or just ignoring the actual feats for no reason? Half Maiden Cinder fought Glynda in the first god damn episode of the series.

I haven't seen many examples of direct scaling at all here. Just conjecture about how the villians reacted to professional huntsmen. Can you please tell me when a professional huntsment and Cinder have exchanged blows?WeeklyBattles said:

I do think that they are shown to be compawrable (ruining the whole point of it. Its pretty much jut a second semblance at this point, instead of an "unimaginable power").

Are you reading the OP?WeeklyBattles said:
"The problem with this is just being able to fight her isn't good reasoning.
Here is the entire fight between the two of them.
- Glynda does not land a single hit on Cinder for the entire fight.
- Glynda blocks only a single fireball from Cinder the entire fight."

Weekly; Glynda gets her scaling almost entirely from fighting Cinder... That's not a feat for Cinder.

Everyone else who fights her scales to her

I am, Weekly.WeeklyBattles said:
I'm arguing against you because I agree with the OP, which already dismantled your point before you made it.
Blocking a casual, small, attack once, and then never fighting again is hardly enough for them to be remotely comparable.

Glynda was only ever hit by one attack, which she blocked.
Glynda hit Cinder precisely zero times.
That's not a huge deal to go off of.
And is that the only person she's fought?

It hasnt dismantled anything. Its repeatedly stated by several characters thorughout the series that pro huntsman are capable of fighting Maidens if they wor together

So you're going from individual pros can handle Maidens to multiple pro huntsmen working together can fight Maidens?

Assuming this downgrade goes through

2:45 is the feat Jinx refers too, should be better then baseline High 8C at least

One casual attack is hardly enough to scale fully to an entire range of characters.

If Qrow and the others are downgraded, then they all become 8-B via scaling to Vernal.

Yeah, a new Tier seems entire appropriate. The Maidens are on a different legue than the rest of the cast.
It would be like saying Ruby scales to kid!Ospin because she was able to block hits from him in training.
