I've been getting bothered offsite for this multiple times, renewed interest in Storm and all, so didn't try finding scans for everything and whatnot, it's abit of a rush job. I'll do a full rework of her page on a later date.
So Storm is a really powerful mutant in Marvel, but like most powerful mutant we end up at an issue, her powers are too esoteric to be indexable as Attack Potency or tiering,
For the uninitiated, her primary power is Energy Manipulation, as she can manipulate the pathways and whatnot of the energies in her surroundings, making her only as powerful as what her opponent throws at her and what's around her. She doesn't have inherent energies, and she can harm 4-Bs and higher beings by using their own energies against them (Case with her fight with Stardust and Trion respectively, should be easy to find the issues for those), and this can be seen apparent in the scan brought up in the recent Death Battle as well.
Now as said, I don't believe this is exactly... indexable in tiering, she is literally not generating energy, something our system is reliant on, so her net AP would actually end up being 0. But this is still relevant extremely to her tiering, and isn't reflected by our current file, ehich offers NO JUSTIFICATION whatsoever for her energy manip.
As such her Energy Manipulation should be changed to (Can effectively redirect energies of beings as powerful as Trion) - Uncanny X-Men Vol 1 369, with Trion herself getting a page due to her indexing relevance to Storm (Estimating her to be around 3-A/Low 2-C, even if she has higher-D shit wouldn't be an outlier for Storm due to lack of antifeats).
So yeah this revisions requires two steps:

So yeah this revisions requires two steps:
- A page for Trion (Simple characters with 3 issues of total appearances)
- Edits on Storm's page afterwards
