Should we add to Bloodman's writeup that he seemed to have defeated Saber Tooth and Blue Pegasus (albeit Blue Pegasus isn't nearly as powerful as ST) on his own?
I mean, pages 14-16 on this page seem to show that Saber Tooth was stomping all the Alvarez forces (although they don't scale to normal Alvarez soldiers since there is no reason to assume that they're the same quality as the ones that fought FT), but then Bloodman shows up and the next thing we know, Saber Tooth and Blue Pegasus are down, implying that Bloodman clapped them on his own, especially since he's later shown with zero injuries from the fight.
Would this lead to Bloodman getting an upgrade? There's a fair chance of it, considering that he would've had to fight Dragon Force Sting and DF Rogue, plus even without taking DF into account he'd have still stomped 3 people who are High 7-A level (Sting, Rogue, and Minerva). Assuming that Sting and Rogue did use DF (and I don't see any reason why not, considering that they can use it at will and there's no reason for them not to use it, then Bloodman could get an upgrade to a 6-C.
And IMO this should scale to Base Bloodman, since there's little to suggest that he used his 3rd Gate form against them. One key reason is that, when he uses it against Gajeel and Levy, he basically gloats that their deaths are inevitable. Yet, he didn't kill the members of Sabertooth and Blue Pegasus once he'd beaten them, which implies that he hadn't needed to use the 3rd Seal to wreck both guilds.
Not to mention, just a weaker Historia version of 3rd-Seal Bloodman was comparable to the High 7-A Rogue, with Rogue even being heavily exhausted after his fight. Also, Historia Bloodman should scale to similar Historias such as Historia God Serena, as they were both made by the same Amped Up Neinhart.
Also, Second Seal Bloodman alone was on the verge of overwhelming Gajeel with his attack until Levy pulled in and used light magic (which reminds me of how much I hate that Shadow Mode Gajeel didn't fight Bloodman, considering that Rogue's Shadows could hurt Bloodman and thus so could Gajeel's). Third Seal Bloodman all but stomped Base Gajeel until Dragon Force kicked in.
So Bloodman should probably be "At least High 7-A, likely 6-C, higher with Third Seal" or "At least High 7-A, likely 6-C, 6-C with Third Seal".
Who would scale to this? Base Gajeel matched base Bloodman, who is implied to have stomped Sabertooth and Blue Pegasus in base alone, so Base Gajeel can be put on the same tier as Base Bloodman (and Base Natsu and Base Erza also scale to Gajeel), while Dragon Force Gajeel has the same tier but might have a different power level based on scaling multipliers (maybe, maybe not, I don't know for sure).
Asides from that...not much else changes if this is accepted. Huh.
Thoughts?
