So new Age of Calamity DLC came out and it was pretty good. Light on feats but it gave another ability to add onto the swiss army knife that is Calamity Ganon's Malice. Spoilers for the DLC, obviously.
Death Manipulation: Ganon while inhabiting this little robot guy shoves his malice directly into some cultists, and instead of possessing them the malice just makes them drop dead. While it might seem kinda redundant to list this given Death Manipulation is one of Ganon's base abilities, I think it's worth adding since this instance is spefically an affect of his new malice energy instead of his normal magic and it kills significantly quicker than his base forms death curse does.
Also, I saw that we have a new Hive Mind ability and I'm pretty sure Calamity Ganon qualifies for this (Specifically Type 1).
Despite having their own bodies, his four blights are simply extensions of himself, and as shown in Age of Calamity his malice can freely hop from one Guardian into another, projecting his will into them, and eventually creating a new physical body for himself via said Guardian. And as shown in BOTW and AOC he controls an entire army of guardians at once so he's not just shifting his consciousness between a single target. I'm also pretty sure this grants him Type 6 Immortality.
Another little thing to add, I want to add this into his page to justify why he also gets all the powers of his blights. And finally, I forgot to remove Ice Manipulation from his base form since it was agreed he doesn't scale to Zant displaying the ability.
