Furthermore, I do not agree with TSM Baam with BMI being comparable to 2/3 of the Hell Train calc, he in this form proved to be only superior to Charlie and Vice Altar Director individually, just in Black March Mode he was capable of overpowering a combined attack of them, so much so that Black March forced him to stab himself to use this Mode, which implies that she believed that Baam in his previous form would not be able to counter their combined might
While I agree with that first part, nowhere does it say that Black March forced Bam to stab himself with her? He did that entirely of his own volition, and the Black March was extremely surprised by this.
From
S2 CH331:
Bam: I have to make this power last somehow...! But sticking the thorn in my body like before will use up too much power too quickly...
Wait a minute... If I could seize the power of a thorn that ignited because of my attributes... then maybe... I could take the power of the ignited Black March for myself too...
Black March: What's on your mind this time, kid?
From
S2 CH332:
Bam: Let's do this...!!
Black March: ?! What!? Hey!! What are you doing?! HEY-!!
Anyway, so I can see TSM + BMI is still being 1/3rd the Hell Train calc, but what should Black March Mode be? It was able to blow through the two Ranker attacks; who were explicitly trying to kill them-
VAD: They leave us no choice!! Charlie!! Kill them all if you have to!!
- and it still had enough power to One-Shot both of them at once.
VAD: Jeez, that thing is pretty damn scary...
Charlie: One hit from that and we're done for!
It has to be higher than 2/3rds the Hell Train calc, at least.
-moreover I don't think there is much change in the Data Zahard's AP in relation to the three levels of Lecalicus and from what I remember, he only uses Lecalicus when he recognizes an opponent worthy of an exciting fight that he is at risk of life (besides, I also remember that he never used it in the fight against Data Eduan, although the latter is said to be the only person there who can fight against a serious DT in the Hidden Floor), so I remember well, Data Zahard was still matching TSM Baam with FTI with Coelacanth anyway
While I can agree with FTI TSM Bam being on par with D. Zahard w/ Coelacanth, I disagree that there is not much change in AP between the three forms.
The attack from first form Legalicus was completely eaten by TSM Bam with little to no damage.
Coelacanth's shockwaves severely damaged TSM Bam despite him using Orb Scattering, and when Data Zahard used Coelacanth for one attack against FTI TSM Bam, he took the brunt of the entire beam with a nameless move, although he was still pushed back.
Leviathan matched FTI TSM Bam's Transcendent Skill and resulted in a double knock out, and the fact that Data Zahard switched to Leviathan implies that Coelacanth would not have been strong enough.
There's definitely a notable increase in AP between Legalicus, Coelacanth, and Leviathan. Saying that there isn't much difference between Coelacanth and Leviathan is like saying that there isn't much difference between normal attacks and attacks that have names given what they scale to. And while it's true that Data Zahard did not pull out Legalicus while fighting against Data Eduan, Data Eduan should be strong enough to give Data Zahard with Leviathan support with his strongest techniques like Dawn of Lightning, given how they went against Pseudo Zahard / Data Real Zahard / Whatever you call him.
TSM FTI Bam = Data Zahard w/ Coelacanth (aka "Really Serious" Jahad) = Data Eduan
Bam's Stardust = Data Zahard w/ Leviathan = Data Eduan's strongest techniques
And speaking of scaling, a 2nd input finally came yesterday from Kieran and the Mid-Range of 2.38645 Gigatons; or
High 7-A+ was agreed on. This makes a standard Ranker's AP 795.48 Megatons, or
7-A+.
@ImNot4nUser kudos for getting that right.
Also, I ran the numbers precisely for Spirit Room White and got an AP of 2.09 Teratons, or
Low 6-B. As he had the souls of the two High Rankers De Jah and De Sah (along with a bunch of other less powerful folk), this puts the minimum AP of a High Ranker at roughly 1 Teraton given that White had 2 High Ranker souls and did it semi-casually. (While FoD Inhabitants who used to be Rankers/High Rankers are weaker due to no Guardian meaning no fancy Ranker contracts which are one of the major separators between Rankers and Regulars, they shouldn't be that much weaker.) It also works as an AP for High Rankers who are weaker than Yuri/Karaka, like Dorian Frog, Canzon, or maybe Gado. (Gado is considered a challenge to Base Paul, whom Karaka managed to pin in a World of Darkness, so Gado is sort of comparable to Karaka?)
In others, we still don't have a 6-C feat...
