Physical Strength vs AP

[Veronica]

Isn't it better to change the physical strength and AP, because I see character A destroy object B with a punch, but its classified as AP., but how is that destructive power? Also I saw a staff make a great differential:

Striking strength: anything done with physical strength

AP: Everything done without physical strength such as: Arrows, thunder, energy blast, fire balls etc.

 

[DarkDragonMedeus]

Even using a sword or throwing a rock is physical strength since for the most part, superhuman potency of a melee weapon or throwing weapon all comes from the strength and precision of its wielder.

SS is merely a sub category of AP that specifically uses physical strikes. But AP can consist of physical strikes, magic, or gadgets/firearms/explosives, or anything that attacks really.

Wouldn't it make more sense. That everything done non-physically is AP?

You're asking a lot of weird questions. Thought our currently policies are already pretty obvious.

How is it weird? I am just making a clear distinction between physical strength and non-physical strength.

 

[DarkDragonMedeus]

I get that, but I don't see why there was a purpose as to go as far as to make an entire thread about it. We already do that. Physical attacks are SS and AP where as non-physical attacks can still be AP but not SS.

But than why are some physical attacks listed under "AP" while it isn't a non-physical attack.

Both physical and non-physical attacks count as AP. A character's tier is based on their AP, not SS.

 

[DarkDragonMedeus]

Because Physical attacks ARE AP too. Why is this so difficult to understand?

But AP/DC refers to non-physical. So how can physical strength be included?

That makes the word "strike power" irrelevant

It does not specifically refer to non-physical, it can refer to any type of attack physical or non-physical.

Than what's the point of having "strike power". When AP/DC is everything in one? Also what does it mean? X has planet level AP, in what physically or non-physically? If physical than why again add physical strength a few scrolls down?

It would have been perfect if it were:

AP/DC>everything done non-physically like Rasengan, Kamehameha, Hyperbeam, arrows, lava attack etc.

Physical strength: everything done through strike power, destroying/hurting X,Y or Z.

And both can scale from each other and it saves time from 100% pure physical characters.

Because some characters have butt doodoo juice Physicals compared to their other attacks.

But its included in AP/DC

Not always. Unless im tripping.

See a lot of great points were made, but I think its to late. Since there are over 10K profiles with this logic
