How do you figure out tiering with psi? watts? etc?

[DeathstroketheHedgehog]

Example: a T-Rex is wall level due to a psi rating. https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Tyrannosaurus_rex_(Real_World)

The only chart I know of that actually gives values for tiers is the 'Attack Potency' chart, which works with kinetic energy and not pressure.

Watts is pretty much joules per second, so do we just go based on how much joules are produced in a second?

I think the T-Rex is just being scaled from the saltwater cocodrile and/or using its KE (although I doubt that t-rexes attack in that way).

Overall, anytime watt is stated or calculated we always assume one 1 s (unless the phenomena last less than that such lightnings). Pressure units can't be converted to eneegy ones, not directly, but we use it to determinate our destruction constants; furthermore pressure in shockwaves (overpressure) can be converted into energy.

Thanks for the watt explanation.

But the T-Rex scaling from the Saltwater crocodile still leads me to find that the crocodile is wall level for pressure. Is it possible for you to elaborate on pressure, and if not is there someone I could ask that would probably know?

 

[Antoniofer]

Pressure do not really tell if someone has a stronger bite, is more a ratio of bite force, is possible that a small animal have a superior bite pressure than a bigger one. Anyway, most likely its AP comes from size and KE alone, the bite and the cocodrile stuff is for additional data.

This is my impression as well.

Okay then.

Can you at least show me where this comes from/the calc formula?

 

[Antoniofer]

Both of our equations for explosion, airburst and surface, use pressure units. You can see it in the pages Explosion Radius/Area and Explosion Yield Calculations. Also in this blog.

Okay, thanks
