That also involves the animals level of intelligence, so, not as high as it seems.

You mean for example, if lets say Goku had genius rating by his combat intelligence, that gets ridden off?Going by a recent staff forum discussion thread, we will likely get rid of intelligence ratings for fighting skills soon.

Question for this thread. Do you just go here to revise a character's intelligence rating? Like there is no need to make a CRT in Content Revision section as long as it isn't too complex? Or smth? I just noticed this place and unsure if I read Ant's first post in this thread right.

Basically yes. If the changes are pretty obvious and not extremely controversial. You can also use it to affirm what ranking a feat would get

I think getting rid of Intelligence Ratings isn't a very intelligent decision.

What about characters who explicitly are based on intelligence, like Shiro? That just eliminates most of their worth for being on the wiki, and it also makes intelligence-based fights like this a lot more difficult to debate without a proper line-up of feats. I think fighting skill would be a good optional addition to a profile, sort of like standard tactics is, rather than replacing intelligence outrightGoing by a recent staff forum discussion thread, we will likely get rid of intelligence ratings for fighting skills soon.

Shiro isn't a fighting skill based character. She's pure, calculative intelligence. While it does aid her in very specific combat scenarios, she is mostly meant to be extraordinarily good at "gaming." Also, the vsbw is more focused on just indexing superhuman fictional characters in general, rather than it being for the point of purely dexing their combative abilities for the purposes of vs debating.What about characters who explicitly are based on intelligence, like Shiro?

Anyway, I still think this decision is ridiculous, lol. If you're gonna be an indexing and categorization wiki you should definitely index and categorize combative skills. That's pretty ******* important.

I misinterpreted what ant was saying, I though he meant we were replacing intelligence ratings for battle iq only, which made no sense to me lol, mb
I do agree with Phoenks on this though. There are tons of characters who perform particularly well in combat, and not indexing battle intelligence is like ignoring a whole part of their character

Yeah, again, we should be taking any character's intelligence, regardless of how said intelligence is applied, and analysing it as a whole (so not just focusing on how it can be used for fighting, but essentially what they are capable of with their intelligence in general, since overall intelligence can determine what a character is likely to do and be capable of, and not likely to do or be capable of, within various contexts).I misinterpreted what ant was saying, I though he meant we were replacing intelligence ratings for battle iq only, which made no sense to me lol, mb

Indeed, most military special force and commando units are often required to be well-versed in both combat skill and intelligence in various academic fields, and perhaps as a correlation, there are quite a few examples of people who are notable for both general intelligence and combat skill, and instances where said general intelligence contributes to combat skill.
Please corroborate the following (the real life example sections/pages) with Wikipedia or other reputable valid and reliable/accurate and precise sources, and yes there will be quite a few familiar names:

I like skill debates and I think character skills are very important since there are a lot of fights that come down to skill, also I just got done making a massive revision, I don't want that shit to go to waste.

Yeah, gonna be honest it's gonna be a bit weird looking at characters like Luffy or Goky without the combat intelligence difference. Cause it's a built in distinction between them and trying to fuse it just feels cursed no matter which direction you put it in.

Kenpachi Zaraki:
Despite his seeming disregard for any strategy and his self-admitted aversion to thinking, Kenpachi has regularly displayed more understanding than one would expect. Even Byakuya was impressed by Kenpachi's ability to understand things he has no personal experience with. He is very adept at finding and exploiting weaknesses in his opponents' techniques, and likewise at adjusting to his opponent's attack patterns and battle methods to better counter them. This was demonstrated when he was subdued by Kaname Tōsen's Bankai, leaving him with only his blade and sense of touch, which prompted him to let Tōsen strike him simply so he could catch his opponent. He is also deceptively insightful, able to notice subtle traits in people and see what drives a person's actions; he correctly singled out Kaname Tōsen and Gin Ichimaru as the only captains who are afraid to die. He possesses sharp intuition towards incoming danger, which allowed him to repeatedly dodge Tōsen's assault while still affected by his Bankai. While claiming not to have any common sense, Kenpachi can still theorize, as he deduced that Gremmy Thoumeaux's The Visionary only works on one target at a time and all effects on a previous target will disappear. (This was plagurized from comicvine btw)

You're missing some feats too. Kenpachi also after just picking up an Asauchi was able to solo the Rukongai's criminals and duel Unohana as a child, and after beating her was stated to fight the real Yhwach, who gave Yamamoto one of his most difficult battles and is superior in skill to her. He also easily dismantled the Espada's best swordsman Nnoitra with ease while adjusting his blade to cut his Hierro.

I was working on revamping the intelligence section for a certain character in a sandbox, and I was wondering if any of the feats presented would qualify for “Genius”?

"At least Gifted, likely Genius" rating makes sense to me. But I suggest you also get other people's opinions.

No, just Gifted. Psychopaths simply don't have any borders whatsoever for the cruelties deviced in their strategic thinking processes.

Also Unohana is a master of 8000 sword styles, and as her title of Kenpachi stands, also is superior to everyone in the Gotei 13 in that aspect with Yamamoto being the exception of course. This includes Aizen and Urahara, both who have also performed the same feat.

This is tactics + skill. Ikkaku tricking his enemy into adapting to a predictable fighting style and overall using his weapon to fool others is more in lines of intellect, not notably skill.

If intelligence for combat gets taken away, where does the info on them go for the intelligence in general?
- 13,800

Wouldnt it be weird to have for example to goku having all that knowledge he had for combat yet be rated by his overall intelligence?
Like it makes sense for an average person in IQ have knowledge in an area that seems more impressive then the rating says? How is that handled?

I might be beating a dead horse here as I mentioned this before, but I believe that until a revision is made for them to be fitting for genius intelligence, it should be removed from their profiles. Neither characters are ranked genius nor have any feats shown on their profiles to warrant them having it

So what should we do here? If we decide against set fighting skill statistics, we need to update our official standards in that regard. 🙏
We're gonna need to settle both this thread and the other one I linked above ^.
