So I didn't post this as a CRT because I am not entirely sure about this myself and I am mainly looking for input on the matter from knowledgeable members.
But Meruem's durability seems too low to me for multiple reasons.
1) Netero(who's low 7-C normally) delivered THOUSANDS of direct blows to Meruem, and all that did was give him a dull sense of pain. Zero damage. So to put Meruem's durability in the same Tier seems a bit odd tbh.
2)Netero only managed to "damage" Meruem with Zero Hand, if you want to call it damage, it was more like small gashes. This is Netero's maximum Aura output which is much higher than his Normal attack, possibly by thousands of times over if you consider point Numero Uno. Keep this in mind for later.
3) Netero then went on to deliver his ultimate trump card, The Poor Man's Rose. A nuclear weapon which was calced and is generally accepted at around City Level. Meruem took this attack at point blank range and survived, albeit barely.
Now Meruem survived, yes, but he was in critical condition and was going to die soon after if not for his Royal Guards. BUT that doesn't change the fact that he tanked it in some capacity, and that all previous attacks did naught to damage Meruem in any meaningful way. This would mean that even if Meruem's durability is upgraded, it would not really scale to anyone else, including Netero.
Furthermore, there's many other factors one needs to consider about the Rose bomb. Nukes have immense heat that surpasses that of the sun and release insane levels of radiation, not to mention the Rose also poisons its victims, so there's more that he needs to worry about than the blast yield itself and that surely accounted for some of the damage he sustained.
With all that being said, personally I feel like low 7-C is, well, too low for Meruem's durability, so what I would like to propose is:
- At least Low 7-C, Likely Far Higher . - or a likely Small City Level rating for his durability.
Now I am sure this was discussed before but I would still like to offer my spin on it, and take further feedback. Which is why I didn't make this a CRT. So feedback is certainly what I am waiting for here. Also it's just for fun! But I must reiterate that this will not scale to anyone, except maybe Adult Gon and Zero Hand(but unlikely for Zero Hand tbh), so it wouldn't create inconsistencies. And it's not an outlier because Meruem is the undisputed God tier of the verse. And tbh, I always thought it was weird that Meruem Got hundreds of times more powerful Post Rose. I think maybe he was always somewhat close to that level.
So let's discuss this!
