Sekiro possible upgrade

[LIFE_OF_KING]

You can basically perry/deflect (whatever) the Giant Serpent, the same one that is 8-A

So the "possible 8-A" shouldn't be just "possible" at all.

Affected profiles are

• Sekiro
• Ashina

I also think that we should change a bit of the 8-A calc. The size of the Serpent is way bigger, 465 meters is just part of it

 

[Mr. Bambu]

Disagree with not leaving it at possibly- the Serpent also can instantly wreck your shit, and killing it requires a prolonged attack to the weak point while it isn't paying attention. Wolf isn't directly comparable.

We cannot deal in the realm of speculation. The model is 465 meters long, we can't just arbitrarily assign it a far higher size solely because the model does not give it a definitive end. The fact is, what we see in the game is directly indicative of the size of the model. I don't see a good reason to presume it is, say, 1 kilometer.

So, just a disagree from me.

You can literally block the movement of the whole thing. He being weaker doesn't mean he's not at least somewhat comparable. There is no way you can be 8-C and block something 8-A. That's a difference of more than dozens of times. Its like saying that a human can stop a car at full speed but still being human level. And you don't die, just lose 90% of your heath

Well, I would actually say 500 meters

I think being able to deflect the serpent should at least count for proper scaling. The 8-C tier is also bunk anyway since it only scales when Genichiro uses natural lightning and Sekiro can't "tank" it.

I'm in favor of changing the tier to just "Likely 8-A" via being able to deflect the serpent without immediately dying.

 

[Mr. Bambu]

We currently do scale, just as a possibly, which is fine. I'm fine with Likely, not fine with just full on "8-A".
