Presently we are using this calculation by Cin for Pica's feat of going to destroy the Royal Plateau in his enormous stone golem.
M3X has recently re-calced the feat here since the scaling images are missing from the original version of the calc. (I was going to re-calc it myself sooner or later, but fortunately M3X got there ahead of me and saved me the time)
The principle differences is that M3X uses a direct scaling from the full width of Dressrosa to the width of the Royal Plateau instead of scaling the width of Dressrosa to Flower Hill and then comparing the Flower Hill to the Royal Plateau - so it cuts out an unnecessary scaling step. He also uses Fragmentation for the feat whereas the original calc uses both Fragmentation and Violent Fragmentation; but I can't find a good reason for the Violent Fragmentation end to be accepted since the exact results of the feat aren't visible. Without that, a low end evaluation of the feat seems more reasonable and Fragmentation should be used for a generic feat of Pica smashing the Royal Plateau.
This ultimately changes the results of Pica's calc from 62.1 Megatons to 1.8 Megatons. This change could affect a huge number of characters so I wanted to make a thread to ensure that the new version of the calc is more acceptable than what we're using presently (which I think it is).
