Thor's Warrior Madness

[C2_of_Omegon]

Now, this came up in a thread recently. The thread itself is not important but the implications.

For those who don't know what Warrior Madness is, it's a state that Thor can enter that increases his strength and stamina tenfold at the cost of his sanity, being unable to tell the difference between friend and enemy.

1. Thor

Now, we already say that Thor has this ability and we include it as Statistics Amplification. As such, we're missing some things.

One, he should have Berserk Mode, as this is what Warrior Madness is and we list him as a Berserker.

Next, I say we add 'Higher' to Thor's AP, Dura and Striking Strength to reflect his Statistics Amplifications.

2. Thanos

Yes, the Mad Titan is here. See, Thanos actually has a fight with Warrior Madness Thor, who was also equipped with the Power Gem. They go back and forth evenly with Thanos only leaving so that he can retrieve a weapon to end the fight as he's sick of it. As such, I believe this to be a better justification for Thanos' 4-B rating and would like to replace his current one with this:

(Capable of fighting evenly with Thor who was in the throes of Warrior Madness and equipped with the Power Stone)

it was the thanks vs sentry thread wasn't it

Agree

 

[LordTracer]

I agree with this proposal.

Thanos was on the receiving end of a beating from Thor with the power gem, and I think that it was revealed to not be the true Warrior's Madness that he was in.

Berserk mode seems fine for Thor though.

Checking through the comics again...(which is quite difficult due to this taking place in multiple titles), you're right on the Warrior Madness part. As shown here, it's not that Thor is in Warrior Madness, they believe that Odin will think Thor's succumbed to Warrior Madness. Perhaps we should make a Note then, because this is a common misconception and we have multiple people, myself included originally, think that Thor is in Warrior Madness?

That said, I wouldn't call it a beating. Thor got 5 hits to Thanos' 4. See here. I think it's pretty even and it's still a good indication of what you need to fight with Thanos. Thor needed to be equipped with the Power Gem to stand on even ground.

 

[Antvasima]

Well, I think that Thanos was shown to be very bloodied and said to have taken a beating off-screen.

A note is fine of course.

 

[Sir_sun_man]

agreed

 

[Antvasima]

Is somebody willing to add Berserk Mode and a footnote to the Thor (Marvel Comics) page?

 

[C2_of_Omegon]

I'm free and can do it.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. I will unlock the page. Tell me here when you are done.

 

[C2_of_Omegon]

Done. Thank you, Ant.

 

[Antvasima]

No problem. Should we close this thread?

 

[C2_of_Omegon]

Well, the only other thing is Thanos' AP justification. The real reason I brought that up, what with him fighting Thor with the Power Gem is because some people on site think that Thanos scales to Thor. Like they're even. Mainly due to the fact that both of them scale above Surfer. We know that's wrong because Thanos has always been more powerful than Thor and their fight showed that Thor need to the Power Stone to get on Thanos' level or beyond. I just felt that it would clear up that misconception and help define Thanos's level of power better.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. What text segment do you suggest should be changed specifically?

 

[C2_of_Omegon]

I would change his AP justification from:

(Consistently shown as superior to the Silver Surfer. Was able to put up a fight against Tyrant through being greatly boosted by an external power source)

To this:

(Consistent shown as superior to the likes of both Silver Surfer and Thor)

I also don't think we need the bit about him fighting Tyrant because...well... he was boosted in power for it and does not display that level of under normal circumstances.

 

[Antvasima]

I suppose that seems fine.

 

[C2_of_Omegon]

Well, then, I can make the change at any time once Thanos' page is unlocked.

 

[Antvasima]

I will unlock it. Tell me here when you are done.

 

[C2_of_Omegon]

Done. Feel free to relock the profile and close this thread, thank you.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay.
