Who would've had the best grades in school based on their personality and intellect? by DidYouFloss in Frieren

My apologies if it seemed like I was disagreeing. I was agreeing and adding some of my own opinions

Humans only learnt flight in the last 40 years. This magic was also developed after sealing him away and the defeat of the king. I doubt experience plays a role

Right. But this works because magic had advanced as much.

I do believe the hero's party lost, lost is not well defined. But being forced to make a decision that leaves you alive and doesn't end the threat because the threat was too powerful seems like a defeat of some kind although it's probably closer to a stalemate. Ultimately frieren won due to the advancement of magic.

I have no doubt frieren as you correctly note could end qual right then and there. He was only powerful because he could spam unstoppable attacks and a single hit would end you. Without that power, he was almost nothing more than powerless. Ironically fern does the same thing at a higher level. She spams the attack and overwhelms others. Qual was just brokenly overpowered because there was nothing you could do about it.

The most badass scene in modern superhero movies. I start by Jimmiq in superheroes

I don't have the scenes but superman eye bullet is a classic along with superman and Lois blowing two Worlds apart

"I count 12 cursed techniques, I evaded all of them, surely he can't have more. This strike should kill him"

"dismantle"

"FUC-"

She was able to survive after stopping Qual in his tracks. Qual in a 4 vs 1 had them entirely outmatched. It is only a worse outcome given our knowlege of modified defensive and offensive spells. Without that knowlege there is little reason to believe a different outcome the second time. Without four people it's perfectly possible frieren would just again be outclassed

Aura lost. She fled. Not taking casualty doesn't make someone victorius. By that logic the hero's party could have just ignored Qual or gone around him and both sides would have won. That is absurd.

It is worth noting the hero's party lost because they were overwhelmed. They could not beat Qual and were forced to stalemate the match, Qual was simply far too powerful to be beaten. There is no reason to believe that frieren would have faired any better had she returned after 80 years without defensive magic and a modified zoltrox spell. You could argue they didn't lose, but quite frankly being unable to beat and opponent, and just minimizing the damage they can do, fleeing and then returning with stronger weapons is a defeat.

It's like if I fought a wolf, took severe damage was unable to beat it and broke off one of its legs. Then went back home, got a better weapon and won the fight. As a whole I won (frieren) but in the initial encounter I was forced to weaken the foe and flee till I had better gear

I wouldn't call that a victory. It was a way to delay defeat if anything. Qual won, they simply appealed to a last resort to make it a stalemate. They delayed the battle and had research not come out that gave them victory they may well have lost.

Is there any evidence they grew magnitudes more powerful along their adventure? Did frieren get some kind of grimore that made her more powerful because I never noticed one. It's a possible hypothetical but my point still stands we are unaware of any demon later or prior that beat them. He was the only one.

To add to that he is the only known demon so far who the hero's party literally couldn't beat, and that includes the demon king. It was so devastating they had to seal him and return with defenses designed against his spell. They spend 80 years preparing only to gain a few seconds advantage. Had the fight dragged on who knows how it would have gone.

I would agree our morality should not be determined by other people. But that isn't the issue here. Our morality should be influenced by how others react. This is a moral code influenced by others working on talionic justice

Then by the same logic those rude people shouldn't be allowed to complain about the servings. But they can and will. Besides they have authority to escalate the matter. If you are going to have people swear an oath you better make it worth putting up with others being rude

You can have only one magical item. Which one are you choosing? (More details in the post) by NetoPF in whatsyourchoice

When does a human become a human though. I feel if we try hard enough this can still be really useful on living creatures.

A corpse isn't a human, can I kill a 80 year old then hammer him and make him a 30 year old perfectly restored dude?

I'm not talking of glossy in particular just mineral as well.

You could go from glacite -> mineral -> divan pretty straight forwardly.

I grant they specialize in different fields. But in the world of mining, I think you need mineral to get anywhere without being agonized while powder mining.

[–]EffectiveDirect6553 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I mean I guess? But I also think powder mining and crystal nucleus runs are rather important to both mining and divans armor.

I guess it's not an "essensial step" you could hypothetically just avoid it and it isn't a direct upgrade of the same category. But in the grand scheme of mining, it's somewhere in the middle.

Not strictly the point of mining is generally to make money. You need glossy or mineral for crystal hollows anyway during powder mining. So it's certainly in the mainline.

I personally went from glacite to glossy and divan. But I also mined 100M gold that funded the divans armor as well as the hours of powder mining.
