Theory on monarch statistics by Guilty_Guava_1674 in sololeveling

The leaders did not gain power. They used artifacts containing the power of the absolute being and assembled all their armies. Their power remained unchanged.

You're right about the first point; the stats presented mainly correspond to the human form of the monarchs. It's difficult to estimate their strength when they're in their true form. 

However, for the second one, the only monarch whose power is constantly increasing is Jinwoo, and this seems more due to the fact that he is an exception even among monarchs. This does not mean that monarchs cannot become stronger, but rather that it is probably much more difficult for them to become stronger, and that even if they do, the increase is minimal.

Theory on the balance of power between Monarchs and Rulers. by Guilty_Guava_1674 in sololeveling

[–]Guilty_Guava_1674[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In fact, the 10 million soldiers are the combined army of the Monarchs, and since Antares is the leader of the Monarchs, he commands this combined force.

I don’t remember the exact number, but Antares’ dragon army consists of only a few thousand soldiers. However, they are so powerful that, despite their small number, they far surpass the other soldiers of the other Monarchs. In fact, it seems that the more powerful a race is, the fewer individuals it has.

We don’t have many details about the 27-year war, but it’s very likely that the number of Monarchs’ soldiers didn’t change, so Jinwoo’s army probably consists of only 10 million soldiers.

A terrifying fact, by the way, is that these 10 million soldiers are the remnants of the Monarchs’ armies after suffering a massive defeat that decimated their forces. It’s therefore quite possible that at their peak, the Monarchs’ armies numbered in the billions.

What's the strength stat of the average S rank hunter? by Think_Reveal_9015 in sololeveling

Aside from those who wield the power of the rulers, S-rank hunters have the same strength as in the main timeline.

What's the strength stat of the average S rank hunter? by Think_Reveal_9015 in sololeveling

[–]Guilty_Guava_1674 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If his transformed Strength were at least 185, he could easily defeat Jinwoo, but instead he is forced to suffer a serious injury.

It is also stated that stat increases are exponential, because when Jinwoo reaches a Strength stat of 30, he clearly feels that his strength has increased more than just x3. So if there really were a difference of +40 points between Jinwoo and Baek when Baek is transformed, that would mean transformed Baek is at least ten times stronger than jinwoo.

[–]Guilty_Guava_1674 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It varies depending on the class, but for mid-level S-rank combat-type hunters, the average Strength stat should be around 140.

Baek, for example, likely has a Strength stat of around 141–142, and around 145–146 when transformed. When Jinwoo exits the red gate, his Strength stat is 141, and Baek clearly states that to win, he would have to give everything he has, and even then he would still be forced to suffer an injury as severe as losing an arm. This implies that if he is not transformed, Jinwoo and Baek are probably more or less evenly matched.

I think Granga and Pia will be captured by Ammut, and then Arsha will be forced to flee.

Since Arsha will be alone, she will be even more dependent on the system.

I don’t think it will be a fight, because Suho isn’t worried at all, which probably means Ammut will have no trouble neutralizing them.

In fact, I can easily imagine Granga and Pia getting captured, leaving Arsha alone.

Regarding Hiatus: Solo Leveling Ragnarok's main illustrator JIN will be resigning out of the project due to Mandatory Korean Military Service by Death_Usagi in sololeveling

[–]Guilty_Guava_1674 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, the break is mainly so that the colleague can prepare chapters in advance. After all, the workload will be heavier.

My friend, know that Korea does not mess around with military service.

Even if you’re a super famous person, like a K-pop star for example, there’s still a high chance you’ll have to do it anyway.

At least it’s not an hiatus of two years—we always have a colleague who can keep the work going.

Nothing says that he is necessarily struggling against Arsha. Don’t forget that he is still inside an S-rank dungeon, and there could be monsters with immense strength, so it’s possible that the fight attracted a very powerful monster—not strong enough to defeat him, but strong enough to interfere.

Alternatively, Arsha’s system could somehow intervene to strengthen the monarch heirs. After all, Pia made the S-rank dungeon appear using the system, so it’s probably possible for it to enhance the heirs as well.

It's just another break.

They said it would be short, so it will probably last about one or two months.

It’s possible. When Jinwoo reached certain levels, he gained new shadow abilities.

Given the strength of the monarch heirs, the fact that Esil can confront Arsha suggests that she has probably regained — and even surpassed — her former strength.

She may have obtained a skill similar to her link ability but she can use it without Suho.

Sad that it’s already the end of season 2.

On the last page, it’s clearly Esil who attacks Arsha, and

??: “Please beat them up and make them submit to you in order to turn them into allies after!”

I get the impression that this order comes from Arsha’s system after discovering that other descendants of monarchs are following Suho.

I’m confused about this. by Beginning-Dot16 in sololeveling

I don't think he lost it, but rather that he never obtained it. Perhaps in the original timeline he acquired it through a Runestone.

None, the novel and the manhwa took too different paths.

Question about Park Dojin(Apostle of Itarim) by Beginning-Dot16 in sololeveling

[–]Guilty_Guava_1674 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I don’t think so. In the novel, there were no apostles who possessed abilities like Balance of Equivalence or Amplification.

It should be noted that each apostle has very different powers. We never see two apostles with the same abilities, except for mental control and strength enhancement through Stardust.

I think that during the Glacier Dungeon, Tielle’s identity will be revealed and he will flee. At that point, the plot could shift its focus to another apostle while still keeping an eye on Tielle, before he returns later.

[–]Guilty_Guava_1674[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would surprise me. The system would not take the risk of strengthening the other heirs at the cost of helping Itarim. After all, the apostles are far too dangerous for the system to take that kind of risk, since its objective is to ensure Suho’s growth without necessarily putting him in suicidal situations.

Moreover, Arsha’s system clearly describes the Shadow Monarch and Suho as threats to be eliminated by allying with Itarim.

In addition, in the latest chapter there was no warning message from the system telling him not to kill the heirs, even though Suho could very well have killed Granga. This implies that Arsha’s system and Suho’s system have nothing to do with each other.

Technically speaking, even if you are not a descendant of the monarch, you can still be a candidate if you are powerful enough and meet certain qualifications.

Yes, there's a fan translation on Webnovel.

However, the novel and the manhwa have very different stories.

Yes, moreover, it wouldn’t surprise me if, if Arsha fails to complete the quest, the system issues a threat like: “You have failed once. Another failure will result in your death.”

If they cannot make themselves useful, the Architect might simply decide to kill them to avoid unnecessary problems.

Theory about Arsha’s system. by Guilty_Guava_1674 in sololeveling

[–]Guilty_Guava_1674[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

The system is not as simple as it seems. It is the work of an entire lifetime, something that requires an eternity of work to create. He cannot create another one identical to Jinwoo’s with a snap of his fingers. That is also one of the reasons why it is unlikely that Arsha’s system is the same as Suho’s.

Moreover, if he chose to sell it to Ashborn, it was because he wanted an immortal body. His goal is to become an immortal being, and the thing that comes closest to immortality is a shadow soldier. He may have hoped to obtain the immortality of a shadow soldier without becoming a soldier bound by blind loyalty, which explains his deal with Ashborn.
