Not quite happy with where the powers and abilities stand.
Nier as a whole
Nier Automata
vsbattles.fandom.com
Also funny story ^
I didn't like the whole "traveled from orbit to earth in 30 seconds" thing so I went to do my own calculations thinking it would be a hard downgrade. But the numbers I got were the same speed rating. Went to get it approved. Got feedback from a calc mod, made the appropriate changes, and the changes gave it an even higher speed rating.
Nier Replicant
Nier as a whole
- Removals
- Stuff like Higher dimensional manip, quantum manip, spatial manip, information manip let's just congregate all of them as magic. Cuz magic is already defined as the ability to warp aspects of reality. No need to give all this hair-splitting. Especially since we don't really have any example of it in action except for vague description on the mechanics of maso. Now I do have a habit of going "Oh wait a minute" after the fact so there might be an exception that escapes me right now but as it stands most of this is just a really wordy way of saying magic.
- An alternative solution I can think of is to give maso it's own page. I landed on the digimon page while trying to figure out what information manip actually entailed and they also have their share of whacked out abilities so we can take a few pages from them.
- Resistance to durability negation? Da frick does that mean? Which form? What way?

- Add
- Intangibility and durability negation for all laser users (might be moot on the last part. I think most use lasers)
- the laser passes through solid objects
-
They use the word 'pierce' but this one is the continuous laser stream rather than the single shot. So you can shoot it in a direction then rotate it to face the enemies and it'll go through all of them. I picked this particular one cuz even though both lasers go through all enemies, the single shot seems like it does it through hard penetration like a bullet.
VS Battles Wiki
The VS Battles Wiki is the world's most comprehensive and popular index of statistics and powers for characters and items from all of popular fiction. - Machine lasers do the same. Grab a spider and have him do a spin laser
-
- Also would list under weaknesses that certain materials including heat resistant material would take no damage from the laser (the scan of 10H dodging the laser will have that paragraph)
- Alternatively I was thinking about adding separate pages for the Pod and Flight unit
- the laser passes through solid objects
- Intangibility and durability negation for all laser users (might be moot on the last part. I think most use lasers)
- Tweaks
- Just some discrepancies among the abilities. Like 8B will have Organic manipulation stating she can produce her own fluids to run her reactor but for like 2B it's under self sustenance. I think we should pick a category.
- For the lesser YoRHa, they have Pod and plugin chips under their standard equipment. If that is the case I will give them a copy of the information
- YoRHa commander isn't actually a YoRHa so she doesn't get the "can't run out of fuel" clause.
- Some of the machines seem lacking in what they can do. LIke Beauvoir shoots lasers and unleashes EMP so that should be marked down somewhere.
- I was doing some cleaning up on the nier pages when I noticed under items there is "items can grant 2B invulnerability to physical and range attacks". What item is that? Cuz I've been digging through the item list and can't find anything. I've found stuff that reduces it but reduce is "that hurts less" as opposed to invulnerability which is "you can't hurt me".
- Durability negation via hacking
- Removals
- Abstract Existence. Like I can see it with the Red Girls but throwing it onto everyone else? Yeah, maybe they are technically through the power of copy/paste but it feels gimmicky. Like saying a person has heat manipulation simply because they can produce body heat. It also gives a false impression of what it takes to kill them..
- Stuff like the concept manipulation. I imagine concept manipulation as in like if I killed death then no one can die because death is no longer a thing. By pasting it on also feels gimicky.
- Resistance to Mind manipulation. This implies telepathy. Resistance to hacking should be enough. Remove these from any and all androids.
- 2B, 9S, and A2 should lose their 'singularity' title. There has been no confirmation of who the singularity is. There is one confirmed singularity so that person can keep theirs. But those three are not confirmed to be singularities, only suspected.
