Beating up or one-shotting even an athletic human is not street level, we need to stop handing that tier out like candy.

...nah, one-shotting is oftentimes enough. Just a lower end boxer has a punch of around 100 joules. Mike Tyson's punch is 1800 joules which is street level. This means most higher end trained fighters are street level and that's not even accounting for the fact that kicks are WAY higher. Beating up an athletic human is definitely not a guaranteed street level feat but one-shotting them, unless it is done through a precise strike to the chin or temple, should be enough.

That + with acute stress response and/or physiological/physical and psychological/mental enhancements and/or melee weapons and/or armour we would probably scale even to wall level
Hell, we have stuff like this (we can find more on the composite human page in JB or elsewhere in Wikipedia):






In 2014, in Minnesota, Bob Renning, a 52 year old man, gripped the door frame of an on fire 2006 Chevy Trailblazer, pulling and bending the door frame in half, shattering the glass of the window. Renning helped the driver out of the burning vehicle, saving their life.

In 2006, Ivujivik, Quebec, resident Lydia Angiyou saved several children by fighting a polar bear until a local hunter shot the bear.

In 1988, in Waialua, Hawaii, while working a construction contract two weeks after filming the finale for the television show Magnum, P.I., pilot and Vietnam Veteran Steve Kux lost control of his Hughes 500D helicopter and crashed into a drainage ditch. His coworker, Warren Everal (also known as "Tiny") lifted the 640-kilogram (1,400 lb) helicopter enough to allow another person to remove Kux from the cockpit.

For reference/comparison, Warren lifted just 30kg less than the highest deadlift record

Say, I might be misremembering, but wasn't Garraxian the one who upgraded Honkai Impact to tier 1? Comes as strange that he'd be so against it so suddenly.
 
Thinkin' of leaving it all myself...i've gotten tired of vs threads since they're always predictable or boil down to shit that ends up not being on the profile, tired of revising verses and having to wait 10 years to get calcs approved...I might just finish some unfinished business and leave. Gonna try n' get some discord tags before so I don't just lose contact with everyone.

See you next week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
With the upgrades themselves or with the apparent opposition?
Knowing him, he was just really angry about the cosmology downgrade and decided to destroy everything out of vengeance. Like, if it couldn't be his way, then it wouldn't be in any other way.
It is sad how it ended to be honest. I would have preferred for him to part ways with everyone here more peacefully, but it is what it is unfortunately. I just hope he can get in a better head space sooner or later.

Wait what happened? (Haven't kept looked up any Hoyo type thread)

The Cosmology is getting downgraded to Low 1-A. Since he was the one that upgraded it to 1-A, it is likely that he didn't like it at all and decided to try and tear everything down as payback, I guess. But who knows, the man is a bit of a mystery at this point.

Really? Have the profiles not been updated yet, where's the thread?
 
I find it crazy that the moment the main supported leaves a site that the opponents spam downgrades. Y'all hate to see a gacha verse succeed.

This one I think

That sucks, really. Let's hope he gets a rest from all this.
 
See you next week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
nah I'm actually seriously considering it. I've gotten bored. I had so much to do and I could do it fast before but nowadays not only is nothing happening but anything that does happen, happens slowly. I am not very patient about things that aren't that important, so at this point I think i might just dip after doing a few more finishing CRTs

I think that if you are going to leave, you shouldn't announce it because then people will roll their eyes when they see you change your mind.

Just don't announce it and just tell your friends or something. I say so because I have said "Yeah, I will leave!" before, and then I come back the next week. Maybe you're built different, idk.

Well, whatever choice you make is fine, though I'd like to think that I, at least, among others, will miss you. I know I at least, will always welcome you here.

Hope we can stay in touch, & nonetheless, best wishes!
