Nah I was talking about the Pro Huntsmen characters who are Low 7-B for downscaling. Which to be fair is a lot of profiles but whole verse was a bit of an exaggeration.

Was this in one of the anthologies?

I wouldn't count those stories as a good source of feats TBH. One of them has a story about how Yang became big and naked while another had Yang punch out a world-destorying metor Weiss summoned.

Theyre stated by the writers to be canon so
Plus those two stories in particular are literally dream sequences

I just looked it up and the general idea is that they are canon unless they directly contradict the main show. So, if anything else in this story isn't totally out there, it's fair.

Here's what I got from the RWBY wiki.
The Manga anthologies are stated, by Kerry and Gray, to be "very much in tune with the show" and that "very minimal feedback had to be given on canon stuff". They explained the collaboration process in which as they got early versions of the stories and gave the artist feedback saying "oh this isn’t canon, do this instead" and mentions that a lot of the moments that they came up with for the books where things that they maybe could've shown if they had a little more time in the show. [5] Due to this, it is ambiguous as to whether the Anthologies are canon or not.

- Miles Luna later describes the Manga Anthologies to be like "awesome fanfiction" that they loved and were happy to share with the fans. [6][7]
- When asked if the RWBY and JNPR Manga Anthologies were to be considered canon in any way, Homesha stated, "Maybe, maybe not.", leaving it ambiguous. [8]
- When asked if the RWBY Manga Anthology was considered canon to the main storyline, Homesha responded saying he had no idea. [9]

Ye, and since theyre set throughout the Beacon arc which canonically has a LOT of jumps in time (The Beacon arc literally takes place over a year and a half) its very easy to just fit it in alongside stuff like The Session (takes place between Volumes 1 and 2), Ice Queendom (Takes place during Volume 2), and Grimm Eclipse (Takes place between Volumes 2 and 3)
- 61,177
- 14,744
Ye, the Beacon arc took place over a year and a half but barely covered anything done outside of the main meat of the story, the Anthologies and other supplementary media are all things that were done but just never got shown in the show itself

Got it. Just wanted to let you know. Though, that explosion from Yang looks massive. Like, reaching to the tops of mt. Glenn. Mountain level Yang lol?

Someone on the discord said it was about a year since the Vyltal Tournament happens between school years.
- 61,177

And then theres the Grimm Campaign which happened two years before Volume 1 and Roman Holiday which happened three to five years before volume 1

What’s the cetinal feat in 8?

Man, the RWBY timeline can be weird. And that's without that one theory that time moves differently in the Ever After...

*Intelligence rating upgrades for the whole verse and updated profiles (like how penny's is)
*Ruby having limited Instinctive Reaction
*All characters having Accelerated Development (Training: Physical Statistics and Abilities)
*All characters gaining Awaken power via evolving their semblance
*The gods having likely Inorganic Physiology
As well as anything weekly has mentioned
- 1,044

Have anybody started planning out how the Intelligence for all the characters will be. (Like did a Sandbox)
Wasn’t there a thread for Ruby getting Instinctive Reaction but didn’t go through
Why do all characters get Accelerated Development?
- 61,177
- 14,744
There have been a few but its going to be for the whole verse alongside a blog explaining the skill scaling chain
No but that was going to be part of the revision as well
The majority of the cast have gone through multiple training arcs where they get significantly stronger and faster and unlock new abilities in short periods of time just by training
- 4,941
- 3,760
Although they are undoubtedly growing stronger through training, does that actually meet the criteria for AD? Otherwise, many anime characters would get this ability through training arcs. Unless it was stated that their growth unnatural, it is rather normal for them to gain stronger through their numerous training arcs.

When the proposed downgrade turns into an upgrade instead

Does anyone want to take a crack at calcing the Centinels feat from Volume 8? The one where they fragmented part of the ground to take down the shield generators?
- 2,154
- 2,348
Since we currently downscale RWBY and co from the Maidens what would they be with this?
- 1,834
- 1,415
I’d assume so.

Either I did something wrong and haven't noticed it yet...
Or I just got a massive feat. From when Salem shoots up the Grim pool from the bottom of Atlas to destroy the shields.
Will need to wait for an evaluation before anything else. But this feels like an outlier as of now. Though if RWBY gets future feats on this level. It has support.
I legit did a spit take when I saw the results as I was doing this.

This would only apply to Salem's magic tho, not even to her physically
- 61,177
- 14,744
Also do the Centinel feat smh
- 11,209
- 12,998
Does this not scale to Ozma? And in term scales the Maidens to 5X below?
I'll check the Centinel feat. Looking at it, this could be something good.
- 61,177
- 14,744
Oh yeah i forgot he exists lol
- 2,154
- 2,348
If it’s not an outlier, this might also be an additional feat for her Telekinesis since she controlled and directed the pool from so far away as well as her lifting strength with it.
- 1,834
- 1,415
Large Island level RWBY let’s goooo/s (……But it should be noted that Yang was able to blow Salem’s chest open, sooooo)
