Killing with mind hax isn't really part how we judge potency here.XDragnoir said:Someone with good mind hax can kill you with it, not only erase your memories, basically the Feathers of Light but killing instead of erasing.
In other words, your mind hax can be technically good compared to others but far more limited in execution. Which is why most of the more potent mind hax here, can't do something like kill via mindhax (Of course they can force a suicide, but not actually kill via the ability itself).
This is because of our judging mindhax by number of people=potency rather than actual ability/amount of control over one's mind. And leads to characters who can only control one aspect of a person's mind being considered more potent than others who's abilities far outclass them.
I've always been against the people = potency thing, I just haven't brought it up in over a year now. I'll bring it back again at some point.
