Superman (Red Son) downgrades

[Antvasima]

I suppose that seems reasonable. Would you be fine with that Qawsedf?

 

[Qawsedf234]

No I completely get where you're coming from. I'll make a calc blog and ask some people to look at it.

As for the Countdown scaling how should we handle the Earthquake stuff? Just radiated waves?

 

[ClassicNESfan]

Is there some sort of problem with the earthquake? In your first post you made it sound like it fit quite well with the other feats.

 

[Qawsedf234]

There's two ways to get a tier from Earthquakes

• Radiated Waves (the tremors you feel on the ground)

• Total Seismic activity (Energy concluding tectonic plate movements and underground waves)

I was wondering which we should use.

 

[DarkDragonMedeus]

We generally go by radiated waves unless there's proof that someone actively flips the tectonic plates.

 

[Antvasima]

Medeus is correct.

 

[ClassicNESfan]

Oh, I misunderstood. Yes, I would personally recommend the first option unless there's information present in the feat suggesting that option 2 has some credibility to it.

 

[Threemagi]

Why hasn't this downgrade been carried out?

 

[DarkDragonMedeus]

Doesn't look like it; may want to remind Qawsed234

 

[Antvasima]

You can place a polite note about it on his message wall, yes.

 

[Qawsedf234]

Yeah it slipped my mind. I'll start working on the satellite calc.

 

[Antvasima]

Thank you for helping out.

 

[Qawsedf234]

Made the calc. 8-B or Low 7-C apparently.

 

[Qawsedf234]

I think the OP seems reasonable, and even if he did get hit by the explosion, I think Inverse Square law would make the feat not as impressive as the explosion calculation.

Oh yeah. I guess just as an example of 10 meters, 100 meters. and a kilometer awat

• (1.9 / 1,256.6370614359) * 5.884524123385183e+33 = 8.8972355e+30 (Low 5-B)

• (1.9 / 125,663.70614359) * 5.884524123385183e+33 = 8.8972355e+28 (High 6-A)

• (1.9 / 12,566,370.614359) * 5.884524123385183e+33 = 8.8972355e+26 (High 6-A)

So if he got far enough away any of the Tier 7 scaling would make sense. Although I don't know how we usually handle inverse square law on profiles. We seem to inconsistently use it.

 

[DarkDragonMedeus]

It can be added to a calculations blog.

 

[Antvasima]

Thank you for helping out.

We should use the inverse square law, expect for point blank explosions and the like, yes, but some calculators have messed up in this regard.

 

[SuperAPM]

I've posted the satellite calc up for evaluation by the way.

 

[Antvasima]

Thank you.

I think this is the Earthquake feat. It's implied either Superman or Wonder Woman stopped it quite easily. I believe there's also a statement that basking in the sun's rays during his stay on Earth has made him stronger than he was in the first volume, where he was relatively inexperienced with his new powers.

Edit: Here's the sca saying he outright welds tectonic plates.

His new rating should be based off of his encounter with Earth-31 Superma. Who can casually output 7.5and 7.8 earthquakes, destroy meteors the size of Manhatta, and beat people explicitly physically better than himself.

That meteor one might be even more impressive; the Vredefort meteor was thought to have been roughtly the same size and traveling at either 10-20 kilometers per second (depending o your source), producing a 300 kilometer wide crater and uplifting 25-kilometer section of Earth's crust according to current estimations.
