@Samlex1234 what tier do you have the God Tiers at
Whew, almost got trapped there—
Not that I’m afraid of sharing all my god-tier scalings and justifications (we can always discuss that privately), but I was genuinely about to lay all my cards on the table. Luckily, a good friend pulled me back to my senses. That said, I might still drop a few gems here and there.
When we talk about god-tiers, I think the term is thrown around far too loosely. Personally, I don’t believe any god-tier character from Naruto Shippuden besides Kaguya truly qualifies as god-tier by Boruto standards.
Sure, there may be some nuance in the relativity between Boruto god-tiers, but the power gap between them and Shippuden-era characters is very clear.
Hagoromo Scaling
Since Hagoromo fought the Ten Tails (not really Kaguya), I’d place Young Hagoromo ≈ Ten Tails.
Side note: I believe the calc we have for the lifting feat is a lowball and doesn’t match the narrative description. Honestly, using the anime version shouldn't be unreasonable (I have seen other verses do this on the Wiki) but I digress.
Regardless of whether it was young or old Hagoromo who performed the feat, both would still be weaker than his prime self. That’s because
Prime Hagoromo = at least Young Hagoromo + Ten Tails, making him twice as strong—since he was already relative to the Ten Tails before absorbing it (
Kinda like Momo + Kinshiki).
So:
Prime Hagoromo = At least (Lifting Feat × 2)
Madara, after becoming the Ten Tails’ Jinchūriki, should be close to Prime Hagoromo and stronger or relative to young/old Hago.
Jubidara (1 Rinnegan) = At least Lifting Feat level
Also consider: the Ten Tails may have grown stronger over time. Combined with Madara’s massive chakra reserves and a potentially more powerful Ten Tails, he could easily make up for the missing half of Kurama.
And since:
Full Ten Tails ≈ Young Hagoromo,
Then starting from
One-Eyed Jubidara and up (excluding Kaguya), characters should scale to
at least 5-B (based on Arc TonyRomo’s calc), with room for far highers as the chain builds, ultimately stopping at Kaguya.
Kaguya and Beyond
When comparing Kaguya to Boruto god-tiers, it’s honestly not close they completely outclass every Naruto god-tier.
Thus, Just as we scale characters on Hagoromo’s level to feats he performed casually, we should apply the same standard to Kaguya and everyone on or above her level scaling them to the
ETSO energy output.
The idea that Kaguya, with near-perfect (if not perfect) chakra control, somehow can’t use even 1% of 1% of the energy required to destroy her dimension as an amp during combat is… a reach.
To sum up:
I’m fine with the current rating of the ETSO, but Kaguya and all Boruto-era god-tiers who scale to or surpass her should scale to the EPS level.
As for Shibai, that’s a separate case. But putting him at 4-B while ignoring direct canon statements and feats suggesting far higher? Yeah… I’ll just leave that there.
