One-Punch Man: AP Revisions

That'd be circular scaling. Fubuki scales from Do-S, who scales from Royal Ripper / Narinki's Private Squad, who scales from Iaian, who scales from Tanktop Master, who scales from Genos.

Iaian doesn't necessarily scales to Tanktop master, no? He broke through Tatsumaki's barrier which stood a blow from Black sperm, which that blow was supposed to kill/finish Atomic Samurai, and took considerable efforts from Gums as well.

It is the primary proposed justification for him. Those others would lead to more circular scaling too.

 

[Kachon123]

We're going off of the accepted scaling in the profiles as well as the proposed scaling in the sandbox. Neither of those use the arguments that you're bringing up @MrTayman616, so there's no use in continuing to push for them right now.


I'm currently a little busy because of work, but I will respond to this thread later today.

 

[Kachon123]

Do you have an alternative to propose then?

Something like this perhaps

Post-VGS

At least Town level normally (Stronger than before. Easily defeated Mosquito Girl with a single attack in the VGS Simulator), higher, likely up to Large Town level with Boost Attacks or Incineration Cannons (Casually beat Hydrated Deep Sea King in the VGS Simulator using Machine Gun Blows and a singular Incineration Cannon. Broke through G4's armor with a boosted jump despite him being able to tank a Rocket Punch just moments earlier. Due to having higher-performing parts and significantly improved destructive strength, Genos' strongest attacks should likely be capable of producing this level of energy without relying on his core), far higher with Self-Destruction (Is his final weapon that he'll only use when pushed to the limit and utilizes all the energy in his core)

Thanks for getting back to me. Personally I'm still going to have to disagree with the proposal in that form:

Due to having higher-performing parts and significantly improved destructive strength, Genos' strongest attacks should likely be capable of producing this level of energy without relying on his core

Genos may have improved since his experience with the meteor but there's no telling how much by, and there isn't enough proof that he can produce his strongest attacks without relying on his core as he did against the meteor. Not even enough proof for a high degree of likelihood that this is the case.

I think it makes more sense based on the information from the manga and the databook to say that his Boost Attacks and Full Power Incineration Cannon are higher than his normal attacks, but that he only be rated Large Town level while focusing all the energy of his core into a single attack.

 

[Kachon123]

This isn't meant for you since you've already expressed that you disagree with a possibly rating. It's meant for the staff members who have said that they are open to a possibly rating. If they believe there is a better way to word the justification to better encapsulate the arguments for it then they can say so, but I'm not going to just remove the possibly rating because you think I should when others have given support to the idea.

Okay - I just didn't want to let your counter-proposal go unaddressed.

But I'll note that even in that counter-proposal of yours, you haven't noted it as a Possibly rating.

sorry I always forget how it works
