City Level Shantae?

Could this be city level environmental damage?
What environmental damage? Scuttletown itself didn't sustain any environment damage from the storm, the storm itself was just really big.

The idea is that the Pirate Master's magic alone created fully functional storm clouds that extended past scuttletown.

Mimic statement likely refers to the storm clouds which have obscured the sun and covered everything in darkness.

The same storm also leaves after he's been defeated.

To copy and paste what the user said about the feat:

Add all these values together and we now know that the tower Shantae is climbing is 21354.5238261 cm or 213.545238261 meters. Now we can put this value into the Distance to Horizon calculator.

www.ringbell.co.uk/info/hdist.…

Distance to the horizon is 52200 meters. Alright, so we're almost done. Now we just have to plug in the right numbers into the following formula to get our answer:

((pi * distance to horizon in meters^2 * 8000) * 1.003) * CAPE

CAPE, to put it simply, is what reflects the intensity of the storm. There are three different values. Low instability is 1000 J. Medium instability is 2500 J. High instability is 4000 J. Given it's both raining and lightning, we can use the High Instability value. So let's plug and chug and the results we get our...

((pi * 52200^2 * 8000) * 1.003) * 4000 = 2.7475259e+17 Joules or over 65 Megatons of TNT. That's city level. And there we are! Pirate Master's storm yields city level results."

And keep in mind, the Pirate Master's very own magic/presence were responsible for that storm. He also did this in his base form before getting his weapons back and transforming.
 
The calc hasn't gotten any activity or comments since it was released. Should I, or really just anyone post it in the Calculation Evaluation Request thread?

Done
 
No problem. Just uh please notify anyone here for any news thanks.
 
Of course. I'll keep an eye on the blog.
 
Environmental Destruction

You need to prove it applies to combat ability. If it's something like a special ritual or a form of magic he never actually applies to projectiles and such, it falls under the above

Even then you need to enable comments on the blog so it can be evaluated

Then again, I can just tell you outright: we don't use distance to the horizon anymore. Clouds actually extend far beyond it due to them being in the air, to the point that if we made a revised calculation accounting for it, stuff like this would get into Tier 6.

Instead, we use visibility limitations, which usually is 20 KM under most circumstances

See Cloud Calculations and Thread:2444686

And in the case of it being 20 KM, this would apply:

Put the calc in a blog.

Well, I tried. I'm not used to using this wiki at all.
1. First, enable the comment section per DMUA request.

DMUA said:
The dude who made the blog accidentally unchecked the option for comments
2. Answer DMUA's questions yourself or ask Strunton to do so here thanks. Else it would be treated as Environmental Destruction at best or discarded altogether at worst.
 
@DMUA Well first of all, there was no actual damage to Scuttle Town. The storm was just made out of nowhere from him. However, we should we able to scale this to his attacks. As stated above, Uncle Mimic stated that the storm is due to Dark Magic. The Pirate Master uses Dark Magic for power.

So if his Dark Magic can create a storm like that, then his attacks should also be able to pack the same energy as they also use Dark Magic.

There is another feat however if you don't mind. At the end of Pirates Queen Quest, Risky survives an exploding volcano. I did bring this feat up awhile ago however it was denied due to it being "non canon" however I do have something to argue against this when I asked Wayforward (the company behind Shantae) about this which I will elaborate soon once these are all settled.
 
You should probably dive into canon arguments before I make any moves, but yeah that seems solid enough for it being applicable
 
Not really since the radius was invalidated

Applying the standard storm calc should work though
