turns out when your upgrades hail from a war of attrition over two years with evaluating staff, people tend to avoid your verse

I don't really want to do that. I wouldn't subject others to what I, myself, wouldn't want to be subjected to. Sorry man. Good luck.

I completely understand man. Just hard times

Edit: If you don't mind me asking, what is that subjection in particular?

I don't want to be in on it and I would not want to coerce my friends to be in on it, it's not exactly fair

Hey, uh... Are you by any chance up to taking calc requests? I got a few feats that need to be analyzed for some CRTs I have planned for a few verses.

Oi you groggy sack of life, do we have any shockwave feat guidelines and formulas?

Just wondering if there are any requirements and rules that would make a shockwave feat uncalcable or useless.

Could you elaborate on the formular?
Mr. Bambu
Mr. Bambu
Fully missed this shit.

I could foresee there being instances where a shockwave is not usable (such as causing no damage to anything), but these things are so ingrained in context that it would be easier for you to provide the specific example you're thinking of.

Sure. First, you would get a destruction value somehow. Since we're speaking in hypotheticals, let's say the shockwave shattered a steel door at a radius of twenty meters from its center. You would get the value for that (voila, 1.289e7 Joules) and the directional surface area of the door (let's say 2 m^2 for simplicity's sake). Now, you need to get intensity of the shockwave.

For my sake, I'm going to take the shape of this hypothetical shockwave as a hemisphere (or half a sphere). With a 20 meter radius, the surface area of that hemisphere cap is 2513.3 m^2. We know that 2 m^2 of that fragmented a steel door, so it's time to get intensity, which is a very simple calculation: 1.289e7 / 2 = 6.445e6 Joules/m^2. The net energy of the shockwave is the intensity multiplied by its surface area. So:

6.445e6 Joules/m^2 * 2.513.3 m^2 = 1.620e11 Joules, City Block level.

Hello
you seem to disagree with the current tiering (1-A particularly), is there a thread where you discussed and argued on why ? i just want to see your point of view on the tiering system.
Mr. Bambu
Mr. Bambu
On tiering in general? No, I've never made a thread to discuss that, and I almost certainly never will.

My thought process is simple. It is entirely arbitrary. All of the tiering system past a point is based on mutual agreement as to what constitutes greater powers- the real science community has no consensus on these things, and we are hardly scientists. We simplify the concepts explored by the brightest minds in the world down to something the average 20-something can understand without getting bored and hamfist it to something workable by our standards. None of it is real. R>F is only a philosophy, a consideration applied to something that isn't real. It's just as valid as the next thing, we have a system derived from the musings of one or two people who thought about it for a long time.

I don't think tier 1 exists, and if it does, we may be the least qualified people in the world to decipher it. "We" as in, the royal we, all powerscalers. Still. People want the higher numbers, eh? So, we have it. It is what it is.
Mr. Bambu
Mr. Bambu
To answer a question I foresee as plausibly forthcoming. "Why don't you make a thread?"

I don't like arguing, really. It's sort of counter-productive, to have that trait on a wiki dedicated to arguing, but I have been fortunate enough to be recognized as reliable, so I don't need to argue to have a say. I really am fairly non-confrontational, I rarely make threads myself to pursue things. I say what I think and sometimes people agree. I don't habitually debate, my interest is not in arguing, least of all something so unlikely to succeed. The end truth of the matter is that most users really like Tier 1. It would be an insanely unpopular move to remove it. Most people would convince themselves we're wrong, anyway. So, I am content to just let others handle it.

Hello! Can you check this QnA thread later? Don't worry, I won't trick you as last time. There's no xianxia or anime shenanigans.

It's just a simple QnA thread talking about whether we can use blogs that are made in other sites/apps, like Notion.

Hey Bambu, it’s been a while. A few years back you helped me with a crt to upgrade an obscure verse Adventure quest. I never got around to making the profiles for the Dhe Ehm (You concluded they were tier 1 but not bound to the realities of the game itself) but given how much has changed in the tiering system I figured I’d ask if you’d be interested in taking a look at another upgrade with more information and context. I’ll link it Here.

Thank you again for the assistance, hope all is well 🙏🏽
Mr. Bambu
Mr. Bambu
Hi. I don't remember you in particular, but the "Dhe Ehm" phrase rings a bell. I actively avoid Tier 1 discussions these days (I did back then as well, but may have made an exception). I hope you get the eyes on it you want. Good luck.

No worries, and thank you. I completely understand lol

I have a Q and A thread with a Question regarding first if one part of this feat can be calculated (and if so how?), and if not then can the second part use some known variables from in real life stuff? I'm wondering if you can help with an answer, thank you
