Small Night King Addition

[RoTt35]

The Night King can only be affected by Dragonglass or Valyrian steel, he cannot be damaged by any other type of weapon, gravity, fire or heat. So weapons like the Scorpions shouldn't affect him either since they are ballistae that have existed for hundreds of years. So my proposal is to apply the following change to the Night King's durability:

Durability: Wall level (Survived a fall of thousands of meters without any damage), possibly City Block level (Cannot be harmed by any type of conventional weapon, which should include Scorpions)

Honestly seems more like a type of invulnerability rather than durability.

First of all, there really needs a scan or video that says he’s completely unaffected by conventional weapons. If that gets provided, then the upgrade should be fine.

In this scene one of the Children of the Forest tries to pierce through a White Walker with a spear, which doesn't do any kind of effect or damage on him.
Jon Snow on several occasions said that only with Dragonglass could they defeat the White Walkers and that it was a necessary resource.
Sam couldn't find any way besides Dragonglass to fight the White Walkers in the Night Watch logs.
Every time a White Walker was killed, it was either by Valyrian steel or by Dragonglass, and when they faced them they only used weapons made out of those materials.

That just seems like the White Walkers are specifically weak to Valyrian steel and Dragonglass as opposed to them being literally immune to all other kinds of weaponry.

Iirc when they get struck by other kinds of weapons, those weapons just break against them even though said weapons can clash against each other and not break.

Never in the series or outside of it did we see or were told that a conventional weapon could damage a White Walker, in fact the opposite happened based on the first video I shared, in which a White Walker is impaled by a spear and absolutely nothing happens to him, and that with only Dragonglass or Valyrian steel they could be defeated. Also, if conventional weapons could harm the White Walkers, they would never have done many efforts to get Dragonglass. In addition, the White Walkers are weak to Dragonglass and Valyrian steel only because of the magical properties that those materials have.

White Walkers can destroy conventional weapons into ice pieces with their bare hands or weapons

I don't think this looks good enough for that level of durability, even as a Possibly.

 

[UchihaSlayer96]

I don't think this qualifies them for that level of durability, it's just a form of invulnerability. This is why we wouldn't scale the Night King's durability to Drogon's fire breathe, for example.

 

[RoTt35]

Well, this can be closed then

 

[UchihaSlayer96]

Alright, closing.
