Absolute disgusting thread premise, jesus christ
Jesus christevery bit of scaling for durability in DS comes back to the fucking boulder
You know I always wondered where the calc for the tank shell comparison comes from cause I see people saying "oh yeah the boulder cut is comparable to a tank shell" but they never post the calc for itIt's always funny because as ChaosTheory can tell you, you can actually pick better feats than the damn boulder but they literally cannot tell any better so they end up hyperscaling even when it not only makes zero sense, it makes no canonical sense for the characters to get stronger in certain situations anyway.
To estimate the energy required to cut a large modern building in half along its width, we need some assumptions and parameters. Here's how we can approach it:
Given these parameters, we can calculate the force required by multiplying the cross-sectional area of the building by the tensile strength of concrete, adjusted for shear. Then, to estimate energy, we would need to consider a path length through which this force is applied, which could be the building’s depth or thickness; however, since we don’t have the depth explicitly, we’d usually equate this in practical terms to width or a relevant dimension for the "cutting" action.
- Dimensions of the building: Let's assume an average large modern office building, which could be around 50 meters tall (about 15 to 20 stories) and 30 meters wide.
- Material properties: Modern buildings are constructed with a variety of materials, including steel, concrete, glass, etc. For simplicity, let's consider concrete as the primary material to calculate the cutting force, as it's a common structural material.
- Strength of concrete: The tensile strength of concrete varies, but we can use an average value of about 3 MPa (megapascals) for tensile strength, considering we'd be looking at a force similar to a tensile or shear action to "cut" through the building.
- Conversion to shear force: We might apply a factor similar to what you previously mentioned (0.6) to convert this tensile strength into an equivalent shear force value, recognizing the complexity of actual material failure modes.
- Cross-sectional area: This is the area we'd theoretically be cutting through, which is the width times the height of the building.
Let's proceed with these rough estimates to get an idea of the energy involved.
To theoretically cut a large modern building in half along its width, given the building dimensions of 50 meters tall and 30 meters wide, and using concrete's average tensile strength:
These calculations give a theoretical figure for the immense amount of energy and force that would be needed to "cut" through a large modern building, underlining the extreme scenario beyond real-world practical capabilities.
- The force required would be approximately 2,700,000,000 Newtons (or 2.7 billion Newtons).
- The energy required for this action, assuming the force is applied across the entire width of the building, would be about 81,000,000,000 Joules (or 81 billion Joules).
- The energy to cut the building is about 235 times greater than the energy to cut the boulder.
- This reflects the much larger size and material volume of the building compared to the boulder, as well as the complexity and strength of construction materials like concrete.
almost all of the profiles for Star Wars Legends have massively over-exaggerated Attack Potency tiers
Yarael Poof defusing a bomb being mistook as him overpowering a planetary explosion
Palpatine envisioning the death of his master in flowery terms as shaking the stars.
So what exactly is going on?

@Xhominid The Apex
I asked the ai if someone were to do the same with a modern building like sukuna did what would the numbers look like?
I don’t even read the eu books or anything and I’m pretty sure I could still name several legenfs feats affecting multiple stars lmaoWhat is going on with Star Wars Legends?
What exactly is going on with Star Wars Legends? As discussed in threads like this one as well as multiple places offsite, almost all of the profiles for Star Wars Legends have massively over-exaggerated Attack Potency tiers assigned thanks to erroneous feats like that of Yarael Poof defusing a...vsbattles.com
No, they do not. In fact, I would argue that the SW profiles that they have are in fact far weaker.
Obviously lacking in reading comprehension. What Poof did was simply bind the energies together, not defusing it.
Ah yes, the "it's nothing but hyperbole" argument. If this was a one-time thing that would never be repeated, that might be true. But the fact of the matter is that the blowing up of stars is a thing. Starfire can be easily manipulated by someone like Brakiss. Black holes are nothing to high tier Force users. Etc. No, this is not an exaggeration.
Actually acknowledging how powerful Star Wars is, and not trying to be a retarded downplayer.
The latest chapter of Frieren literally states that both Fern and fucking Frieren would get killed by Stark if the battle started less than ten or so meters away, because he'd be on them before they could cast.
Rin is faster and stronger than Stark is. It's not a difficult concept

Bruh, Medea joins Argonaut. That is far more adventures and experiences that Frieren's Fern ever have. Spamming is also what Medea does. If anything Fern is nowhere close to Medea.
The last is also assuming Fern can react.
Is Stark really that strong that NP other than Nine-Lives wont be able to kill him? Aint his weapon still normal weapon? That would break vs NPs.
Frieren
Having good odds against the freaking HOMONCULI!
