Question about Time Stop

[DragonEmperor23]

I have a question about time stop. Is the potency of a time stop dependent on its range and length?

For example, character A resists time stop that covers three planets and lasts two minutes.

Character B's time stop covers five galaxies and lasts an hour.

Would Character A resist Character B's time stop?

(This is ignoring the time stop being higher dimensional or working on people that have Infinite or higher Speed)

 

[Antoniofer]

Nop, the standard assumption is that the Time Stop is considered equaly "strong" regardless of range and duration.

I should've gone into more detail.

Time manipulation blends together, yes. Unless it's like, clearly very bad (like a certain bald purple alien). Range I don't think matters.

But, let's say, that Character A can Stop Character B in time with their Time Stop, but Character B has resistance to Time Stop. Would that mean that Character A's Time Stop is better than normal Time Stops?

 

[DragonEmperor23]

@Cal

Explain very bad. Using Hit's example, why would the timestops being different lengths of time not mattering start to matter if the timestop does not last long?

 

[Muchacho_mrm]

I don't think verses treat it's range as it's potency. Something like who it can affect or for how long determines it's strength, range just means that's how far your effects reach, right?

Yeah

@drite

Yes

Timestop that works on people who resist it, people with infinite or immeasurable speed, or higher dimensional time stop are better than normal time stop

 

[Antoniofer]

Relatively speaking, yes.

 

[Overlord775]

Would Time Stop that affects the entire universe be better than a time stop that targets only a small area ?

 

[Paul_Frank]

No, range doesn't matter since both are still affecting the fourth dimension so the range within the 3 dimensional space is irrelevant

 

[DMB_1]

Time-Stop doesn't inherently have strength, because all you re doing is exactly that: bringing the flow of time itself to halt.

If it is restricted to a limited amount of range or even "duration", oddly enough, is just a weakness of the caster's variation of the ability, but other than that, time is still stopped, no difference compared to universal and limitless Time-Stop.

A time-stop can be considered more potent/effective if you are stopping someone who resists it or transcends time through Acausality or Speed.

 

[Antoniofer]

A being with aditional space axis can still be affect by conventional time stop.

 

[DMB_1]

Yes, if you are talking about pratcticality.

No otherwise.

Can you elaborate on this?

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

No

Cal was talking about Hit's time-skip getting literally overpowered by raw strength, which is at least what happened in the manga.

 

[DragonEmperor23]

Yeah, that was basically why I made the thread. The Hit that the character in the thread gets the resistance from doesn't have that weakness so I was confused on why they said the time stop would work. It was then said that the real reason why the timestop would work is because it lasted longer and had more range than Hit's timestop which Jiren resisted. Glad to have it get cleared up though.

 

[AKM sama]

Time stop is just stopping time. If a character can move in stopped time, it doesn't matter if the time is stopped only on the planet or the universe, for a second or for a year.

 

[DragonEmperor23]

That makes sense, thank you.

 

[Overlord775]

But would't a time stop capable to affect an entire timeline be stronger than a localize one since it would be Low 2-C ?

 

[Antoniofer]

Stopping time is not Low 2-C tho, also, the current standard is that any TS have universal+ range unless otherwise showed/stated.

 

[Overlord775]

I am pretty sure we don't do that and you need feats for universal+ time stop

 

[DragonEmperor23]

Overlord, Anto is correct.

Incorrect. Time stop is assumed to be universal+ by default unless stated or shown otherwise.
