I'll see if the Excelsus laser applies as being a SoL laser too, so then this calc could be used
I might also include an upgrade for Jetstream Sam removing the "At most City level+" in his profile to just being "City level+"

I'm not using the the statements from the blog to support it being SoL, I'll just see if it fits the criteria for being an SoL laser
- 1,765
- 925
It says if other speeds feats/scaling are close to SoL it can support it, and the Excelsus is a far superior model to Rex who's accepted as being incredibly near FTL, with Raiden having Sub Relativistic feats and scales to Relativistic. It also holds no contradictions at all for being a laser from what I've seen

I don't want to be that guy but technically Excelsus isn't actually a Metal Gear model, it just has the name Metal Gear due to marketing purposes, something that's explained if you use the Codec to call your allies during the boss fight.

Because it's an actual thing, it's a Free electron particle laser, which isnt actually SOL, it's like 99% sol. But all the same, it isn't just called a "laser", we have actual specifics on it.

He's comparable in base to Armstrong who can match his Ripper Mode, that's the whole reason why the Ripper Mode multiplier isn't accepted
- 14,117
- 11,089
No? The hell have you been?
It isn't accepted because the actual multiplier has never been directly stated in media, we just know what it is from gameplay. If the speed amp was never flat-out stated (it's said in the piggyback guide), It'd be treated the same too. We just treat RM as an unquantifiable large amp atm due to that.
Armstrong never even canonically matches his RM too, and Raiden very much ISNT comparable in base to him, like, Raiden got memed on for half that fight.
- 14,117
- 11,089
So? That has nothing to do with how we treat Raiden, or anything you said, really.
No statement, so we don't slap hard value, nothing more, nothing less, that is how RM is treated. And inversely why we accept RM 10x speed.

If we're gonna axe the city block level scaling, what other feat should we use?
- Venom Snake tanks a Pandur II exploding: 8-C (0.37133475054 Tons)
- Big Boss catches Cocoon: 8-C (0.828 Tons)

Would need to calc more feats to find out what's consistent, unfortunately, a good chunk involves metal displacement, and idk wtf that thread concluded with.

Not sure if we can calc it or not but how much KE do you think Venom Snake surviving attacks from Sahelanthropus could get us?
- 1,765

You mentioned a KE feat from Psycho Mantis that could be good

Idk about KE, but Sahel has a PE feat where it jumps hundreds of meters, there's also him dropping down in its debut, but I'm not sure if it jumped or Mantis dropped it, well it'd be dura eitherway.
It breaking rocks vary between 9-A+ and low 8-C.
Metallic Archaea could be decent, some chunks would get 8-C.
Sahel's best feat is likely only High 8-C tho, unless he actually did jump across the map to engage you in the Huey rescue.

Imagine having to spend a year reworking profiles and finding feats when you can just delete the entire verse and start from scratch with a few older calcs

Weird I found this in Solid Snake's profile in his durability section
vsbattles.fandom.com
It doesn't seem to be accepted by any calc member either, this should be removed from his profile

That calc is dogshit for like 4 reason so yeah, but it does remind me, P-Bombs can blow out steel walls, so that's an easy calc, might be 8-C.

Do you have any sandboxes made or anything? I'd be down to help out with profiles but idk what exactly we're changing.I wish it's only been a year

Yeah but I haven't edited them in like 1.5+ years so not exactly worth looking at, fandom lags after a certain byte point. I edit them in stickynotes.
And everything, if it was just stat changes it'd be done and over with, but it's a complete comprehensive overhaul and index of effectively every profile. Plus new profiles like Kaz.
Like even just Venom I'm still working on getting every weapon in MGSV so I can make clips of themI usually just have venom lay in a back of a truck and have it ride me around and autofarm mats from my bases and stuff, the amount of shit that actually needs doing goes beyond just going on yt and clipping a walkthrough, a chunk of what's left needs actual manual gathering.

This is genuinely insane and I respect it lol. Realistically though how long is it gonna take until we even get to make a CRT? Maybe it'd be easier to do this in stages instead of trying to do everything at once.
