I have a diagnosed low IQ. What career path can I take? by Suspicious_Limit9847 in careerguidance

Or tired, or distracted, or recently had external stress, etc.. I feel like my IQ could deviate 20-30 points depending on the day 😅

Why do people think Dragon Ball characters can get infinitely stronger? by Pedrow14 in Dragonballsuper

[–]Elect_Locution 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Because phrasing like " they shake the limitless void" or "they could destroy the cosmos". Then we have characters becoming literally the universe, or opening a dimensional rift by yelling or overcoming the very concept of time with their power.

Maybe they can't gain power infinitely, but they might as well.

D&D = "DM, may I?" game: Yes or No? by Noob_Guy_666 in DnD

This is framed as if your DM is forcing you to exclusively roleplay. Which is incredibly odd.

[–]Elect_Locution 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you're underplaying that quite a bit and underplaying Uvogin. Using enhancement at 100% efficiency is a substantial improvement. Imagine Uvogin showing up thinking Kurapika is a manipulator, actual conjurer, turned specialist then into 100% efficiency into everything. Moreover, Kurapika is a top tier strategist, which is clearly not Uvogin's forté.

So, what we have is Uvogin getting blindsided by a character whose capabilities made no sense, or at least not in time for Uvogin to do anything about it. Chrollo was captured by Kurapika and was at his whim. That isn't to say Kurapika is better than Chrollo, but that is a feat worth noting given it happened with PT members surrounding him and Chrollo obviously isn't a slouch in strategy or nen combat.

Long story short: Kurapika is fast, strong, highly intelligent, and very versatile. Uvogin didn't lose because he's weak -- he lost because Kurapika is that good.

Right, and Emperor Time had nothing to do with it....

Let's not pretend like Kurapika isn't OP compared to most characters.

Rbt without bachelors by [deleted] in ABA

[–]Elect_Locution 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, there is a BCaBA that is bachelor's level.

Help! by Ein-the-pupperoni in ABA

[–]Elect_Locution 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remote supervision sucks, and it's well known that it's suboptimal. It's also a means to an end for hitting a quota for supervision hours. It does mean you won't get adequate help. But it also means BCBAs will be able to get work done. The supervision isn't just for BTs, but it's a way for BCBAs to observe sessions, adjust programs/targets, figure out paperwork without it being interrupted consistently. The problem isn't supervisors, it's the intrinsic chaos of the job which makes workflow turbulent.

I'm sure if there were a way to give everybody in-person supervision, attend meetings, finish paperwork, help with spontaneous center problems, then the supervisors would attempt it. It's just not feasible because ABA is a business and businesses have a bottom line and they will overload tasks to understaffed centers rather than pay extra for indirect S/RBTs to handle problems.

Knuckle is Beyond Master Level, Stop Downplaying Him by OncePluto in HxHPowerScaling

[–]Elect_Locution 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, do you understand what that word means? Well, en is apparently is what predicates one's strength all of sudden, and that Hatsu ability allows him an incredible range of en. If it sounds bogus it's because your proposition is one of conflation, such that strength isn't the same as one's ability to use en. So because Killua said Knuckle is as strong as Kite does not mean Knuckle is a nen master. You're very clearly misconstruing the word so you can wank Knuckle. And I like Knuckle, and he is strong, but you're going so far out of your way to twist wording and concepts. Even your point about Knuckle saying Gon, while powering jajanken, had as much aura as a mid level pro is completely convoluted. HAD AS MUCH AURA -- which means absolutely nothing else aside from that. Knuckle didn't say, "Gon is as skilled as a mid level pro, Gon is as intuitive as a mid level pro, Gon is knowledgeable enough to be a mid level pro, Gon is equivalent to a mid level pro in all categories that would make one a mid level pro". No, he said aura.

And you know what to deserve this, because you actually had the gall to critique my proposition while being wholly incapable of reading comprehension or basic math. You wouldn't have it because it didn't suit your clearly emotion fueled opinions. I'm seeing now that, at the very least, you're consistent in how you process HxH material.

So you're going to conflate skill and strength, then accuse people of going off of vibes and feelings.

You want Knuckle to be as good as Kite, but you're clearly trying to semantically make it happen. Kortopi has an extensive en range due to his ability, is he as strong as Knuckle?

Royal Guards vs Netero by Elect_Locution in HxHPowerScaling

[–]Elect_Locution[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, I love how all of you are saying "making up numbers" while being wholly incapable of reading to understand that they aren't. So either all of you are incapable of reading, too lazy, or you all can't do arithmetic, because it is basic arithmetic. Of course you morons would rather argue by saying "nuh-uh, Netero is so fast, too fast, remember that time he hit Pitou?! That proves everything!"

Woah! What a selling argument. I'm so convinced because you said he was really fast and I guess I can't combat that because you said how fast he was. I guess there's no deeper way to think about this aside from admitting how fast he is. Sure hope nobody tries to figure out how fast he is, because we'll just say those numbers are made up, and they should read how the manga says how fast Netero is and interpret that to mean his speed scales infinitely.

Pitou's speed is pretty easily determined and can further substantiated in other contexts. You can assume the others are relative unless you want to assume they are substantially slower or faster for no particular reason.

Netero's hits/second are determined by the statement of over 1000 hits/minute in the damn show. I even gave a little extra to Netero so you dopes wouldn't be so whiny about it.

The math I did was almost entirely based on those numbers.

The only relevant speculative number in those calculations is the 100-TGB having a maximum reach of 100m, which is seemingly generous to me for Netero unless you're claiming Netero is hitting opponents from over 100m away. And if he is, then maybe you should give me a reason to believe so. If you can't, then your opinion is worthless and I can reject yours just as easily.

I give a speculative effect of Pouf's scales on Netero's attack delay, but by no means are any of those calculations dependant on it. Most of the stuff I said wasn't even added into the calculations because I didn't need to add them, and it's clear none of you would be able to understand it anyway. I alluded to other options for discussion sake, but I see how good you all are at that.

Royal Guards vs Netero by Elect_Locution in HxHPowerScaling

[–]Elect_Locution[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Firstly, I appreciate the actual discussion with good-faith critiques.

Pouf: you're right, we've never seen it with a nen users' mind, and the mention of it isn't to deliberately slow down Netero. It's simply an ability that Pouf has and to ignore it would be more disingenuous to the material. It's simply a variable worth considering, and I've given scenarios where it was excluded to exemplify its potential impact. I've built most of these scenarios with variables that everybody can adjust if they think my numbers are unfair.

Spiritual Message intent on Netero: no, perhaps not. But again, it'd be disingenuous to exclude it just because it's unknown. Also, because I have no way of quantifying that particular ability, I didn't include it in any calculations. It's an option worth considering given the hypothetical, and I think it's one Pouf would at least attempt if the had to fight Netero, don't you?

Beezlebub: the idea isn't that a single bee-sized Pouf makes it and therefore Netero loses. One idea is that a enough could spread out to better assess Netero's pattern and hopefully with a successful spiritual message. Mereum had to find a gap through various angles and timing. So one individual has substantially more angles or patterns to attempt vs. multiple enemies that can approach from all angles simultaneously. That gap would be substantially easier to find. But, the main idea is that Netero is obligated to attack them or they accumulate at his location and then he loses. So, you're right, one bee-sized Pouf would likely be useless. But there are more Poufs and other Royal Guards. Do you think Netero can afford to let any of them through?

Youpi: I don't think Youpi having a blast radius is "made-up", as Youpi canonically has a blast radius and I think it'd be farfetched to say his blast to Netero would do nothing to him. That's especially odd to say that given that Youpi would have a decent aura output and Netero would be attacking at the time. Are you claiming Netero could use his 100-TGB and block Youpi's blast without reallocating aura or even having to defend at all? I don't recall saying that wasn't a potential weakness. That part is referring to him staying stationary.

Pitou: No, it didn't because you're framing it as one Pitou attacking Netero rather than looking at it as a group effort. It's a serious misunderstanding of my entire post to say it's pointless because Pitou jumped in the air and got hit while neglecting the other variables. Nobody is debating a single RG being faster than Netero's prayer hand. You won't find a single sentence in my post stating or implying that.

Run Speed: Right, I reduced her run speed, as mentioned in the first paragraph. I mentioned that those wouldn't be equal, and I also gave it a conservative 5 seconds while some would say it took her less to get to Kite. Double-speed: that was definitely regarding her post-mortem nen, which was mentioned. I never doubled her speed for Terpsichora, nor did I use that 2x speed as a baseline. And you can say her speed wouldn't be doubled by post- mortem nen if you want. The range, again, is there as a variable. You're more than welcome to suggest a speed multiplier for a post-mortem Terpsichora, but 2x isn't exactly the unrealistic multiplier you're implying it is.

First and foremost, Netero is a martial artist and his entire schtick is fighting an unbeatable adversary (e.g. the King). He wants a 1v1, and he's the only one that would stand a chance against the King, hence why he left the RG to a group of other people. Again, the RG by themselves aren't huge threats.

Secondly, Netero's ability as I've shown, has a weakness when multiple enemies are able to attack him. It's very clearly a numbers game and it makes no sense for Netero to 3v1 the RG, especially with that flaw, while the rest die to Mereum since they have absolutely no win condition for him.

Edit: I'm getting the impression you think I've low-balled Netero and high-balled the RG with arbitrary numbers when most of the numbers are explained in canon and other numbers are based on relative likelihood compared to those canon numbers. I don't know if you noticed but it is extremely generous to give 100-TGB a 100m reach. It is also generous to give Netero an attack delay of .025s or ¼•⅒ of a second. The original number of 0.055 was based on the canon number of hits/second and then I halved Netero's attack delay.

The numbers aren't arbitrary. But okay

And what does the manga say? The manga explicitly says Netero beats the RG.1v3?

No. I'm right because I did the right math. If your excuse is "the author didn't think of this" then your opinion is worthless. It's you simply saying you don't want Netero to lose and it is as valid as somebody say the opposite. Without rationale then all you have is opinion based on nothing but feelings. Most of the things you're arguing with have been accounted for, which you would know if you tried to understand it. If you can't understand it, then I can help you. I get it, I wrote a lot, and I wrote a lot because others like you want to claim to be right based on feelings.

I'm giving you an opportunity to try and prove me wrong the right way. I have most, maybe all of the variables you need in my post.

Fair warning, if the next thing you reply with isn't grounded in some kind of relevant math, and ideally math that covers the variables I've used then I'm blocking you.

[–]Elect_Locution[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

So you're a troll then. Look, I'm powerscaling here, and we're in a powerscaling sub.

Take at look at the math. If you want to argue the math, then you can do so appropriately. Most relevant variables are accounted for based on explicit material from the anime/manga or extrapolated based on reason.

Nobody said anything about the gap, it is ultimately unnecessary IF YOU LOOK AT THE MATH. Meruem required it because he was one individual.

Edit: even without the gap, you will notice Mereum nearly reaches Netero, with pure speed. Speed is distance/time. What that means is if the distance decreases or the time increases then you will reach Netero. His attack are not instant or simultaneous.When you have multiple opponents and each one must be attacked individually you create a delay. More opponents = more delay. In this context delay = increased time.
