So are they parallel universes or a different continuity/non-canon?
They're technically parallel universes, based on a short paragraph at the start of the book:
Creation. It is a word that is a place, and a place that is a thousand more: worlds and realms changing under the shifting light, like a thousand different reflections from the shards of a broken mirror. When the mirror shatters, it reveals a mad math of worlds, a conspiracy of ideas, places, and themes that nevertheless evoke all the myth and legend of the world that came before. Do not believe what the scientists tell you.
Buuut one must consider there already exists things outside Creation, such as the Underworld, Hell, and the Wyld. Which don't connect or interfere with any of the other shards. So in practice they're different continuities.

Alright thanks. So the Wyld, the Underworld and Hell are different planes to Creation (which IIRC is an area about 10000 miles across), so stuff that happens in them doesn't scale to Exalted.

Oh they do. They just exist outside Creation, which alongside the stuff outside of it is the main setting. It's everything within the other shards (the alternate universes essentially) that don't scale.

Righty. Thanks for clearing it all up. So Exalted in the main shard is multi-continent level+, but other shards are galaxy level or higher?
 
Only Gunstar Autochthonia (the one where that excerpt originates from) would be Galaxy level. Even then the main shard doesn't even reach multi-continental (though it's pretty high into continental).
Alright thank you. There's been a fuckton of wank and misinformation about Exalted (no thanks to a certain website), so it's good to finally clear things up. I remember years back I did an Exalted calc (just because I could) and I got a few petatons out of it. I'll see if I can find it again.
 

:Wut:
 

:Wut:
Cumber is DBH so his canonical strongest is multiversal while the other two are thousands to millions of times above baselien universal. Doomslayer isn't that much vastly stronger than Post Crisis Superman, and isn't Dormammu a hax machine?

Really uneven matchup

Dormammu just turns them all into glass and goes about his day really
 
There were statements I sat on for years* because I didn't have enough evidence to back up that they were accurate or not. Like the Tribunal from TES being cosmic in scope. Then ESO hard confirmed that they are.

*Still am in some cases
I had been aware of the possibility of branch timelines in TF since I had reread part of the mtmte comics but at the time I thought it meant maybe there were two or three multiverses in the series. Did a little more reading and I got suspicious there was more but didn't have a lot to go on.

Then I started combing through the AVP trivia and realized there was so much shit we had all been ignoring for years that wasn't covered in the OBD or any other forum. And it got worse once I started to read other stuff and realized how much info we were missing.

Like tfwiki has a panel from Marvel just right on Unicron's main page that mentions every action creating a new universe.
At that point I was just like....wait a minute

TBH I only even started doing a deep dive because I didnt want to believe sttgl could beat Unicron :skully in this case the research actually ended up going places I never expected
 
@Adamant soul


The fuck with that optimistic rating for? Like no one doubts that Yamamoto could probably singlehandedly take over SS. But he didn't already cause he doesn't believe in it that's why he follows the Central 46 despite being stronger than them.
I mean if Yamamoto attempted any such take over, he'd likely have Ichibei coming down to crush his ass like a bug.

Though yes you're right that Yamamoto is remorseful over the decision to wipe out the Quincy, which is why he bends to their will so easily. He literally describes himself as a monster to Shunsui, which disqualifies him from being the worst "good guy" in Bleach because at least he feels bad about it.
 

@Xhominid The Fool So this means it's solar system-galaxy level right? :hm

No, that's just the power and energy ToEs can tap into, they don't have the same durability FYI.
But considering how powerful Excalibur is and Rhongomyniad is like right behind it, Star-Solar System would be enough... which would vape Yhwach even if it was just Large Planet.
 
God fucking damn is this bitch dumb.

Like I said before, you can only truly see how dumb Siriel is when he tries to pretend he knows what the hell he's talking about when it's a series you know like the back of your hand.
The worst part is that he was caught literally bullshitting on multiple accounts... and they still believe him anytime he says anything like he hasn't been shown lying for the hell of it so that some random character can win a fight that day.

The worst good guy in Bleach would be either Mayuri or Unohana after learning who she actually is with Kenpachi either 2nd or 3rd to them both depending on how you see it.

:FucksSake:
 

Nobody tell him that Aleister can focus the blast onto someone without causing collateral damage (hell, that's part of the intentional design of the spell).

And yes it very much is real and not just an illusion.
