So instead of discussing here, where people can debate, give greater context and support for their side, you went the sneaky sneaky route instead, cutting any amount of discussion entirely
Not suspicious at all
Ngl, you have a point there. I should've given more context for why I changed my stance, especially since my vote actually counts. It wasn't malicious on my part, I'm just a bit busy nowadays, so I went with the lazy route of FRA'ing DT's argument.
Anyway, my main issue is with scaling to the planet slicing laser. As I understand it, these two statements are what's being used to scale people to the Robot's laser:
1)
This statement where Hunson speaks about Gunter/Orgalorg, and describes how evil Gunter is and how he "met he his match" when he tried to suck his soul.
2)
This statement where Hunson describes the Lich as the "second most powerful evil entity in the Ooo Universe", with Hunson being the first (or so I'm told).
All I personally got from the scans is the following:
1) This Hunson Abadeer fella is, at least by his own estimation, the strongest known person in the Ooo universe.
2) Lich is the second strongest, after Hunson.
3) One could potentially argue that the "met his match" line could reasonably imply that Orgalorg scales to Hunson in some capacity, but at the same time it could just be resistance to soul hax? Not sure.
Either way, I don't see how any of those things would connect these 3 to the Robot's laser, when there seems to be no direct confirmation that Hunson's statements about Lich, Gunter, and himself are actually taking the Robot or his laser into account at all. So yeah, my main issue is just needing proof or additional evidence for why these guys should scale above this random Robot's laser when he's never mentioned in these statements, and when we seemingly have no way to prove that Hunson even has knowledge of its existence, or its power. Finally, much like DT, I'm unsure why this would even scale to these guys' Striking Strength.
Additionally, the "evil" statement about Gunter being used for AP also seems iffy, but like I said before I can maybe see how one would reach that conclusion, especially with the "met his match" bit. It's just this being used for scaling to the laser that I find super iffy. Unless Hunson is supposed to be Omniscient or something? In that case, that could change things, idk.
Finally, I'd like to reiterate what I said earlier in the thread: I have, essentially, ZERO knowledge on AT or the greater context of the series. So if I'm wrong here, or I missed something, ya'll are more than welcome to correct me. Also, I have no real stance on whether these people should be downgraded or not, assuming they have other avenues that scale them to tier 5, or even this very laser calc. It's just these particular statements that I kinda feel iffy about.
