Hyrule Warriors Speed Justifications

[Reppuzan]

First, I want to get something straight, I have not completed a Zelda game outside of Phantom Hourglass, so I don't know jack about the series.

That said, the majority of the ratings on the Hyrule Warriors profiles I've seen seem rather haphazard with no justification whatsoever (particularly speed). Would someone mind explaining to me why the characters are Subsonic+ and why Ganon is suddenly Massively Hypersonic?

 

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

Absolutely no idea about the subsonic+. I would assume the MHS is from scaling to Onox (a boss who is relatively fodder level compared to big bads such as Ganon and Majora).

One problem.

Hyrule Warriors is explicitly in a different continuity than the regular games.

Is scaling to Onox even possible with his feat not existing in the Hyrule Warriors timeline?

 

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

I have no idea. I'm just stating what I assume the reasoning is, because as far as I know, there are no explicitly MHS feats in Hyrule Warriors.

The Subsonic+ comes from the actual gameplay itself, where the characters in the game are moving at comparable if not slightly faster speeds compared to the enemies on screen.

This is assuming that the enemies shown on screen are moving at the regular human speeds.

If the characters at HW were moving at MHS speeds, everything would look like a blur.
