At 18.133, this is just the point in the video that Raven dodges the lightning bolt.

At 18.399, this is the point where the lightning crashes to the ground, and Raven successfully dodges the lightning.

• Raven is 63px tall = 1.8m
• Raven moves 56.57 pixels = 1.6163m

Now, considering that this feat was done inside a building, we need to know how high the said "lightning cloud" was up. Looking at the background, we see a bunch of columns in the background that are supporting the ceiling

Looking at the plain columns section the standard column height ranges from about 108 to 150 inches tall, or about 2.75m to 3.82m in height.

We will go with the taller end in terms of height since the columns seem to be larger in size/thickness, meaning they would be taller in height as well. Now that we have the height of the column, we can find the height of the ceiling shown in the background as well.

• Column height = 56px = 3.82m
• Ceiling height = 137px = 9.345m

The maximum height where Sonia can summing her cloud-to-ground lightning is at the ceiling, meaning the lightning is coming from 9.345m away.

Raven's speed

• Timeframe of lightning = (9.345m)/(440000m/s) = 2.12386e-5 seconds
• Raven's speed = Distance Raven moved / Timeframe of lightning
• Raven's speed = 1.6163m / 2.12386e-5 seconds = 76101.87m/s, or Mach 223.63

TL;DR: Lightning cloud height is at 9.345m because that is the height of the ceiling. Raven dodged 1.6163m at the same time lightning bolt moved 9.345m.

Massively Hypersonic.


Now, there are three ways to implement this.

1.-Based on the calc alone, this should apply only to The Blazing Blade/Binding Blade cast based on the height of the Black Fang´s Water Temple Hideout.

2.-This should be applied to every GBA game, since they use the same animation for Bolting.

3.-It should be applied to the Geneology, Thracia 776, Binding Blade, Blazing Blade, Sacred Stones, Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn casts since they have "Bolting", Note that Geneology and the Tellius games have different animmations for the spell.

This is not how you get calculations accepted. Rather, you should post this as a blog, and then ask in the calculation evaluations thread: https://vsbattles.com/vsbattles/549708

I will request this calculation in the calc evaluations thread. Miles is the original author of the blog however.
