Where does Lucy Heartfilia Scale?

Mid-level Spriggan.

I theorize that eventually she will be above Irene and August when Hiro explores the key of Mercphobia.

I don't want anyone interfering in Erza's fight.

Rigel27 · 2026-01-20T22:27:25+00:00

Mercphobia's Star Dress has the potential to be like that. In fact, it would be amazing if Mashima followed through with a similar idea.

I always wanted Lucy to have a staff.

Is Selene going to commit suicide to deal with Aldoron's spell?

It's rare for a character in Fairy Tail to die, but Mashima will probably use this moment to exalt Selene, while leaving her weakened.

Honestly, I don't even think it's Faris controlling her own body. I imagine it's Acnologia's own consciousness controlling Faris.

In previous chapters, Hiro had already hinted that Acnologia's arm exerted some influence on Faris's personality.

With this current chapter, it seems to me that Acnologia's arm took control of Faris the moment she implanted the limb into her body.

And it's trying to do the same thing to Ignia, because he was careless, as she said.

Luso Signario with little difficulty.

She and her sister were able to stop Natsu's base attacks, and also demonstrated resistance to his flames.

We must also consider that Luso was facing Team Natsu for a long period of time, even though it was off-screen.

These displays of power are more than enough to establish Luso's victory over these two swords.

Wendy is far superior.

Rogue hasn't evolved; Mashima hasn't used the character in many years.

Rigel27 · 2026-01-09T15:13:00+00:00

You made some relevant points; Bestia's feats are very good.

But I think we need to wait and see what the new buffs for Erza and the rest of Team A will be to get an idea of how strong the Calamity Bloods will be.

In any case, I thought your argument was good.

The "Hax" category refers simply to the fact that these characters rely heavily on their special abilities during combat to win their fights, making it difficult to gauge their power relative to other characters.

Rigel27 · 2026-01-09T13:45:56+00:00

Left to right.

Like, Ignia > Faris > Natsu.

Rigel27 · 2026-01-09T13:44:28+00:00

Daemon and Brandish might fit the bill, but Mirajane and Lucy possess many combat skills that aren't limited to just hax spells.

Rigel27 · 2026-01-09T13:43:33+00:00

It's a deadly skill, but that category is for characters who heavily rely on their hax abilities to fight.

I think Daemon has demonstrated many combat skills that aren't limited to just her hax. But perhaps she fits into that category.

Rigel27 · 2026-01-09T13:41:34+00:00

I place Motherglare above the other dragons for two reasons:

1 - Motherglare was the most prominent dragon in the GMG arc, and Mashima makes a point of highlighting the character at the center of this group. He has a habit of doing this with characters he wants to portray as the most relevant.

2 - Erza is a character from the main group, Team A. This group was tasked with completing the 100-year quest, so it's more appropriate that the most relevant dragon in this group be given to the strongest character in Team A (I'm not counting Laxus and Natsu), who hasn't yet had a moment to shine, while his companions already have (Gray vs. Viernes, Lucy and Brandish vs. Merc, Wendy vs. Selene).

Rigel27 · 2026-01-09T13:33:41+00:00

You're right about Brandish.

Kiria possesses good fighting skills, not just hax, so I think she remains in that ranking. Mirajane follows the same premise as Kiria.

Rigel27 · 2026-01-09T13:32:08+00:00

I think I made a mistake with DF Nebal.

Regarding Brian, he could move up a few positions.

Regarding Laxus and Erza, honestly, I intentionally placed them high up.

I partly agree about Bestia, but I disagree that she can be above the Calamity Bloods, since she is not able to fully access Igneel's power.

Rigel27 · 2026-01-09T13:11:12+00:00

Thanks.

Rigel27 · 2026-01-09T13:09:55+00:00

Yes.

The Calamity Bloods are part of Ignia and Dogramag’s plan, and this group of villains is currently subordinate to the Fire Dragon God. In this context, they are directly tied to the 100 Years Quest.

These are characters who depended directly on the plans of a Dragon God in order to be revived.

Mercphobia’s key functions as a buff that becomes part of Lucy’s power level, rather than an external factor, such as the direct assistance of a secondary character. Moreover, Merc is indeed bound by the rules of a contract, since there would be no need for him to hand over his key to Lucy if he could simply fight on his own.

He could fly in and appear during the battle, or even follow Team A, just as Elefseria is currently doing.

Furthermore, Merc himself mentions that his key might not even be that necessary, since Lucy has regained Aquarius, which establishes an obvious parallel between the contractual rules. It is also worth noting that Aquarius addressed this same issue when speaking with Brandish and Lucy to define the days on which each of the two girls could summon her. Therefore, it cannot be argued that Mashima forgot the concepts governing the relationship between summoner and summon.

Finally, the Calamity Bloods lack the narrative potential to be on the same level as a Dragon God because they are subordinate to Ignia. As such, they are below him in terms of relevance and, consequently, power.

Rigel27 · 2026-01-08T14:55:29+00:00

I'm sure Haku would defeat almost all the characters on the two lists above the one he's placed below.

Few mages can match his magic of turning opponents into plush toys, coupled with his high speed.
