Transformers General Discussion

[JoshSSJGod]

So what's the current debate? Trypticon? I assume WfC Trypticon so I'll say that we should probably get the energy attacks calced considering they were decently visible from outer space. I'll see if I can get a scan for it the explosion.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

One last thing is that there are apparently explosions on Cybertron visible from space in ROS:

These are either pillars of light, some energy discharged from Cybertron or explosions.

This is how the artist in the same issue drew explosions:

Both have a spikey look to them, so IDK, maybe they are explosions. Those that touch the ship seem to have a similiar shape fo the explosions on Cybertron (besides the ones exploding without touching the ship or anything else in space).

Another explosion ay the end of the same miniseries drawn by the same artist:

I'm not sure what you point is here tho? The explosion of trypticon from what we've seen is nowhere near the magnitude of those other supposed explosions. It doesn't even reach till space.

We're actually debating about movie starscream's feat of surviving the city trypticon. Although if you could get WFC feats that would be great

@Emirp sumitpo
It is unrelated to the previous topic (Trypticon).

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Ok. But why did you bring it up? I previously assumee it was related becomes you quoted my post about trypticon with it

 

[Primestar3]

Ok. But why did you bring it up? I previously assumee it was related becomes you quoted my post about trypticon with it

It is one more possible feat, that's why I brought it up.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

We don't really see anyone tank nor survive that. Starscream could be harmed by the 7-B thing and shockwave knocked out by Tunguska. So I doubt either could survive something like that

 

[Primestar3]

Not saying that characters can necessarily survive that, just listing possible Autobot-Decepticon superweapons.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

The thing is, we don't know what cause the explosion in the first place, I don't there was an implication they were caused by super weapons

 

[Primestar3]

Considering that the war on Cybertron wa going on at that moment, I think it was to show warfare.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Other possibilities could've happened tho. It's a pretty ambiguous feat.

Apparently, the switching gears trilogy of books are canon to IDW, I have the first book somewhere, I'll try look for feats there

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Ok, so disappointingly, the transformees classifies novels don't have any special feats. However, reverb, the main antagonist of the trilogy, is able to somewhat contend with the likes of optimus, although he ended up getting wrecked. With ancient weaponry, he took on all the Autobots and the military, and had to be defeated by a design flaw. Gears scales to base reverb. Those should somewhat scale to idw movie optimus, making them at most 7-B

 

[Shadyboi0]

So are bumblebee movie characters only baseline 8-C? just curious.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

This is the calc for it.

 

[Shadyboi0]

That is sad.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

There were 2 other feats that were more impressive. Such as bumblebee destroying a wall and the seekers collapsing a tower. But there was a problem with the feat and it couldn't be calced

 

[Shadyboi0]

I had a feeling they weren't close to 8-B.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

The tower feat could be High 8-C as that is the AP for breaking a skyscraper in two. And this feat is pretty similar to that, and is likely larger. However that seems a bit like a stretch.

 

[Primestar3]

@Emirp sumitpo @ByAsura
Do you think Titan Bonecrusher reacts to laser here? He seems to react to the laser considering that he seems to position his claws just right so the blasts bounce off of them.

The Titan Clocker seems to be directly based on the toy version (besides that the Titan Clocker dies on Cybertron). So, I think details established there might apply to the Titan version:

It says the blaster he used against Bonecrusher is a laser (it does look like a laser in the comic as well).

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

I doubt that laser was like an actual laser, because the design of it looks more like an energy blast then a laser one.

 

[LordTracer]

Even if it is a laser, you’d have to prove it has the properties of an IRL laser to say it’s light speed or anything like that.

 

[ByAsura]

The term laser cannon is pretty common in science fiction. They use it in verses like Doctor Who and Star Wars, yet none of them act like actual lasers.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Do you think a calc for functuonist Primus could work. I'd kinda like to see what AP you'd get for destroying a dozen planets.

 

[Drite77]

Depends on the distance of the planets

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Is there such a thing as an average distance between planets? Also a dozen apparently means 12.

 

[Drite77]

Depends, if it is in the same Solar System, probably depending on the size, if it is out, it may be a tad bit more complicated. I thought that it was a common knowledge

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

I'm assuming it's in the same solar system, as it being in different solar system sounds a tad bit ridiculous. Could using several earth size planets work? I guess the average size of a planter could work if such a thing exists, as far as I know. I think they size of a terrestrial planet could work rather than a gaseous one as world burners are made to attack populated worlds

 

[Drite77]

The Average size of a planet is Earth... also worth noting if the Planets were like Cybertron or Earth

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

I think it's been noted that Cybertron is a very unique planet, that is different from the rest of the universe. So I think earth's size should be used. Deception tend to attack organics planets. Also Cybertron is the size of Neptune or Uranus fyi.

 

[Drite77]

Ur anus, not mine Could ya provide the link for the feat/statement?

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Lemme search for it. It should be noted that Cybertron is very much uninhabitable for organic life, for obvious reasons.

 

[Drite77]

ok

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

This is the statement if I remember correctly. I don't think Megatron would be talking about it being Primus or something because while it's never said, I doubt he's religious

 

[Drite77]

There is no statement about the destruction of 12 planets...

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Oh that. I thought u were reffering to Cybertron being a special planet. This is the statement. It's says it's a dozen and according to here, a dozen is twelve

 

[Drite77]

I don't know about other countries, but I learned what a dozen is when I had like, 6-7 years on school

Be right back with the result

 

[Drite77]

3.9611146402459870937 Tenakilotons or 0.1657330365478921 Foe, Large Star level

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Nice, shouldn't this be evaluated or placed in a blog? I guess I could use this upgrade the profile later.

 

[Drite77]

Which profile?

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Functionist Primus. He was able to tank attacks from several world sweepers. It would also apply for Unicron, but he's already 4-B so nope.

 

[Drite77]

I see, I'll put in a blog in a bit
