Jojo: Damage Accumulation (Time Stop)

[ProfessorLord]

I see the note on the profile. Lots of people aren't aware of where damage accumulation came from.

It was from this scene in the manga and anime.

It's more explicit in the anime and vague in the manga, as usual. I have no idea whether or not this is just inconsistency, I just wanted to point it out.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. Does anything need to be changed in the profile in question?

 

[ProfessorLord]

Unless more people think it warrants adding it back to Jotaro and DIO's profile, then I don't think it really matters.

I just wanted to see what people think.

 

[Dark649]

I think it would be better to not bring up the 2015 Country level+ Jotaro and Dio we had in the past because of that. We agreed that it was rejected.

 

[ProfessorLord]

Where did you get the country level calcs, by the way?

And if this were to go through, the damage accumulation from timestop would be seperated from his main tier of course.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Damage acumulation isnt a thing

 

[Dark649]

A Narutoforum calcer calced their damage [6-B to 6-B+ as i clearly saw/remember] and the staff applied it as the time, by watching Jotaro and Dio past history edits, but the staff later agreed to remove them.

 

[ProfessorLord]

weekly don't comment if your not even going to read the thread.

@dark649, just to clarify Star Platinum can punch over and over at MFTL speeds, right? Wouldn't being able to move at these speeds and hit your opponent over and over without the force taking effect be a form of damage accumulation?

 

[WeeklyBattles]

I did read the thread, damage acumulation isnt a thing and it hasnt been a thing for years, we accepted it as a thing a while back but then rejected it because punching someone with a million tier 8 punches diesnt equate to punching soeone once with a tier 6 punch

 

[Dark649]

No, i agree with Weekly since that was the reason.

 

[ProfessorLord]

You clearly haven't. This thread wasn't meant to say that we should re-accept it, the purpose was to illustrate people where the concept of damage accumulation came from, since nobody seemed to realized why they thought it did accumulate damage. I clearly stated all of this in the OP.

 

[Dark649]

Despite that, we analyzed that thing in the past and we came to the conclusion that damage accumulation can't be a thing because it has issues that lead to its rejection in the past even if the verse tried to say it.

Time stop is a different case, as theoretically the total energy you generate in timestop is all dispersed at once when time resumes. This was the case with Kira at the end of DiU; none of the fist-shaped indents or craters appeared on Kira's body until after time resumed despite Star Platinum wailing on Kira nonstop throughout.

When you say "we reject damage accumulation", you are addressing an entirely separate argument. This is in regards to time stop.

 

[Antvasima]

I agree with Weekly and Dark649.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

The time stop was the reason we accepted damage accumulation, but we no longer do

 

[Eficiente]

I agree with Weekly and Dark as well.

 

[ProfessorLord]

Oh I see now. There was two different topics being thrown around. I'm in agreement with not accepting damage accumulation with speed and shit.

But time stop is a seperate issue. If there is clear evidence of damage accumulation in a time stop, does it count?

 

[Antvasima]

No I do not think so, sorry.

 

[ProfessorLord]

So even if it is outright demonstrated, we still do not accept it?

Why?

 

[Antvasima]

Because we only accept attack potency from single attacks on principle.

 

[ProfessorLord]

Wouldn't attacks in stopped time function effectively the same as a single attack in regular time?

 

[Antvasima]

They are still single strikes. Our tiering system does not work like that.
