I'm not posting that link for a third time. The evidence of his focus/strain is right there, it might not have been sweating and panting, but there was a clear effort needed to keep it as it was. And I left that out because it was irrelevent to the timespan of this fight, unlss you honestly think Steven can keep up a fight for even a fraction of that timespan.

Again, circumstances. Floating around in space uncontested isn't the same as holding back the weight of the ocean and an all out assault. Basing any and all interactions with his shield off that single non combat related scenario doesn't work.

"he was in a deep state of mental and emotional trauma on top of struggling to breathe after being exposed for a few seconds to the vacuum of space while sending Ruby to her death."

...So in other words he was exhausted. And, again, the two times he's done so was when the people attacking him were doing so because of a misunderstanding, and once he cleared it up, there was no need to fight, he didn't use some empathic manipulation to remove their will to fight.

All the info on his page was taken/reworded from that wiki to begin with, so what makes it's information any more or less relavent now?
 
No effort maintaining a bubble while in a crevice deep in the ocea, no effort maintaining the bubble the entire drive back to Beach City from ground zero at the bottom of the ocean when Lapis dropped it, no, you havent posted a scan that shows he needs effort in order to maintain it. And yes i do because Percy has nothing that can get past Steven's bubble while Steven can just sit around watching Percy throw everything he has at it and tire himself out.

Then make a crt because Steven's bubble is High 6-A for tanking the ocean falling on him and for being comparable to his shield in durability which protected him from an enraged Yellow Diamond stomping on him. Percy isnt High 6-A and Steven has already demonstrated the ability to maintain his bubble while at the bottom of the ocean so he's not getting past the bubble.

Did you just ignore what i said...? He wasnt exhausted at all he was mentally traumatized and nearly suffocated in space. And even by your own logic you contradict yourself as in that same scene he keeps his bubble up while he's unconscious. And he actually did with the Cluster.

Unless you have something from the book that states that it increases his stamina what the wiki says is irrelevant.
 
Yeah, steven fra. I am 99% sure that his stamina consumption is a cusre and doesn't care about salt water juicing him up anyways
 
The two were still right off the shore of beach city, and the time they were shown falling doesn't imply it's anywhere near the depths of the true sea floor, not to mention if they were truly that deep they would have been instantly crushed the moment the bubble popped, and they especially wouldn't be able to casually swim back to the surface. https://youtu.be/svlEOWw51g8?t=2m29s note the hands extended out, the closed eyes, and the focued expression. If that isn't "effort" to keep the bubble going, then what is? Innitially, no, which is why he can, again, stall steven out by keeping him there and not let him slowly hamsterball his way away. It's not as if Percy "getting tired" means he keeps throwing himself at the bubble till he ragdolls and passes out/dies. Percy isn't limited by a strict human anatomy, Steven still is, deprive him of food and water and he won't last more than a few days, and if he tries to drop the shield and swim he'll drown long before he reaches the surface, assuming the pressure doesn't outright kill him there.

https://youtu.be/svlEOWw51g8?t=1m48s This isn't the whole mass of the ocean falling on him, given how the water chunks were fanning out from even the very top it's generous to say maybe a 4th of it's mass directly impacted him once everyone got on the van and he put the bubble up. And more over this is season 4 steven, the diamond stuff hasn't happened.

No, I read it, and it perfectly described steven being exagusted after that encounter, physically and mentally. Running around, wrestling a with a ruby, then not having a good moment to catch his breath before having to hold it for several seconds as he ejects said ruby. And I don't see how that's a contradiction, he was tired, yes, but he was no longer under attack, and had a moment to rest, and then soon after his bubble begins to shrink, safe to assume if you kept up the pressure and didn't allow him a moment to relax, the bubble would eventually pop/continue to shrink. He never used his bubble in the encounter with the cluster, he and peridot were in the drill. Unless you mean the mind manipulation thing, in which case no, he didn't directly control their thoughts/actions, he made a few suggestions and they settled on one.

Luckily for me PDFs are readily available

Page 8 "He could feel the power of the ocean just over the horizon. Water always revived him. Salt water was the best. He'd discovered that two days ago when he had strangled a sea monster in the Carquinez Strait."

Page 83 "And the giant Polybotes…that giant had given him a feeling the opposite of what he felt when he stood in the ocean. Percy's energy had drained out of him, leaving him weak and feverish, like his insides were eroding."
 
Steven jumps several km into the sky, starts floating, waits until the guy falls asleep, drops on top of him with spikes. Probably even hits his invulnerability weak spot.
 
Not if Percy's asleep on his back. And why would Percy sleep during a fight anyway? And if Steven has jumped high enough for Percy to think he's left I'm pretty sure Steven just BFRed himself, resulting Percy's win.
 
"As long as they cannot return from wherever they have been transported to within a certain amount of time - a week, going by Standard Battle Assumptions - victory is reached through BFR."

What Percy thinks doesn't really matter. He needs to stick around for a week. And considering Steven can return in a minute or two, before jumping away again, he can reset the timer pretty much as long as he wants.
 
Speaking about it, he can also just use the conviniently placed Rose's (and therefore all other) Room and warp pads to get some equipment in the process
