Question about Attack Potency

Suppose a character is thrown into a non-physical world, meaning a realm that has no material form whatsoever.
Then, the character destroys a “mountain” that is also non-physical (incorporeal), meaning the mountain has no mass, volume, or tangible material structure.

The question is: can destroying such a non-physical mountain be categorized as attack potency?

In general, attack potency refers to the amount of energy produced or exerted by an attack. Meanwhile, in physics, energy is closely tied to mass, volume, and material interactions. However, in this case, the object being destroyed has neither mass nor volume. This implies that, from a conventional physics standpoint, no real energy is required or produced to “destroy” it.

Therefore, can this action be directly classified as physical energy-based attack potency, or would it be more accurate to consider it as a form of hax or an ability that operates on a non-physical or conceptual level, depending on the mechanics of that world?

Thanks 🙏
 
I don’t think it can be used for AP without a calc, maybe you could try to calculate the range or AOE of the attack and maybe get AP of the explosion, but not sure, I’m not a calc guy really.

So, can AP be calculated? Since it has no physical form? Hmm, that's confusing, but okay 🙏
