Have some DCAU changes I wanna put through. I don't feel the non Lex stuff is too controversial but Luthors profile as is could stand to at least have what I'm bringing up here discussed.
Starting with the Other Characters:
A.M.A.Z.O.
Doctor Destiny
Amanda Waller
The Question
Lex Luthor
The one I think needs the most changes. I outlined a lot of what I would like to do here before.
He should have 5 keys:
Base (Brainiac)
EDIT 1: It would seem everyone agrees with the above. I am working on the Luthor stuff myself. Others will come in time,
EDIT 2: I'm going to put all of the speed upgrade suggestions up here as well. The verses superpowered beings and Batman are prime for speed upgrades. Thanks to @Fireld for putting this all together. Everything from here is his stuff almost verbatim.
Some of these aren't FTL but still enough for an upgrade
Starting with the Other Characters:
A.M.A.Z.O.
- Abilities section can probably use a tabber, seeing as it'll be the focus of the new JLU comic story coming out in July and the nature of the androids character. The current profile also makes it seem that it has all of it's powers in it's first key, which isn't true and should be fixed.
Doctor Destiny
- He should have the needle he was going to use on Batman in their encounter as part of his standard equipment, seeing as it was apart of the only fight he took part in the real world (Barring his minor cameos in JLU Season 3.).
- His ability to put people to sleep is something that can seemingly only happen through prolonged exposure. The prisoners we saw seemed a bit in and out of it, and if he truly had the ability to make people drop asleep just like that he would've wrecked Batman (Who was struggling to stay awake regardless of Destiny's powers.).
Amanda Waller
- Needs links for all current abilities. Could use a complete rewrite I feel.
The Question
- Harmed Parademons, who despite being mooks Batman thought it'd be necessary fight with electric gauntlets. His "fight" against Lex really should be discredited as an anti feat considering the version of Lex in question that I'm about to go over can similarly deal with Batman rather handedly. Can probably go to 9-A without much issue.
- Should have Supernatural Willpower, and Resistance to Social Influencing. He resisted several hours of electrical torture attempting to break him for information. Even going so far as to taunt his captors with random conspiracy theories.
Lex Luthor
The one I think needs the most changes. I outlined a lot of what I would like to do here before.
- To preface all of this, Brainiac at any point up until JLU Season 2's finale can manifest himself to enhance or protect Luthor as he embedded himself as into Luthors body via nanites. should Luthor be near perceivable death (Like curing his terminal Kryptonite induced cancer, enhancing his strength/physicals) Brainiac will kick in to save or enhance Luthor's physical body.
- Lex should probably have 5 keys: Base (Brainiac) | Warsuit (Brainiac) | Brainiac possessed | "Luthoriac" | Base (Post Brainiac)
- Both Base keys should probably still be at 9-A as he is shown to be physically fit prior to Brainiac's injection. His amps with Brainiac in control let him salad toss people like Batman and The Question. Post Brainiac Luthor is seen fighting Parademons alongside Batman. Base (Brainiac) should be 9-A, Higher when amped. Base (Post Brainiac) should be 9-A
- Warsuit should probably get its own key, the few times we see Lex flying around in this thing make it clear when damaged its not something he can just put on. Post Brainiac Luthor also likely wouldn't have access to this anyways given the last time we see it, its on the watchtower's weapons vault with the Annihilator and various other villain weapons.
- Any Brainiac key before the merger should have the following: Transformation, and Multiple selves, as well as Resistance to Radiation Manipulation, Biological Manipulation and Disease Manipulation.
- Brainiac Possessed key would be Low 7-B, from taking on the original members of the Justice League including Superman, Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter etc. He loses the Flight he had in his Warsuit key but gains Technology Manipulation, Data Manipulation, Extrasensory Perception, Matter Manipulation (Turned Lexcorp tower into a flying war machine, later controlled and merged with the remnants of the Dark Heart.). Also the Low Mid Regeneration already mentioned on the profile would go here as well.
- Luthoriac (I'm just gonna call him that.) should have a possibly 7-A rating. Remember it wasn't the Flash's 7-A hits that "killed" him, it was Wally defusing him after landing those punches.
- Luthoriac's Pseudo Life Creation should be removed, the beings he created were just simply nanotech extensions of their thoughts and what they knew would torture the League the most to fight. This is apparent when you compare how the duplicates were able to emotionally tear at Superman, GL and Hawkgirl, versus how Flash and Batman handedly deal with their duplicates.
- Base (Post Brainiac/JLU Season 3) loses all of his Brainiac stuff and has the Magic Nullification stuff moved here. thats all.
He should have 5 keys:
Base (Brainiac)
- 9-A, Higher when amped
- Gets: Transformation, Statistics Amplification, and Multiple selves, as well as Resistance to Radiation Manipulation, Biological Manipulation and Disease Manipulation
- All abilities that would require Base Lex to be in this thing currently would go here.
- Gets: Transformation, Statistics Amplification, Multiple selves, as well as Resistance to Radiation Manipulation, Biological Manipulation and Disease Manipulation
- Low 7-B (Took on the original 7 members of the Justice League)
- Gets: Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Multiple selves, Technology Manipulation, Data Manipulation, Extrasensory Perception, Matter Manipulation, Regeneration (Low Mid)
- Possibly 7-A (Survived hits from All out Flash)
- Pseudo Life Creation removed.
- Doesn't have any abilities Brainiac would've provided.
- Magic Nullification moved here.
EDIT 1: It would seem everyone agrees with the above. I am working on the Luthor stuff myself. Others will come in time,
EDIT 2: I'm going to put all of the speed upgrade suggestions up here as well. The verses superpowered beings and Batman are prime for speed upgrades. Thanks to @Fireld for putting this all together. Everything from here is his stuff almost verbatim.
Some of these aren't FTL but still enough for an upgrade
- To start there is a open request on the Calc Request thread for a good number of the following feats.
- One of Maxie Zeus' victims was diagnosed of being struck by lightning. He uses the same lightning based weapon on Batman and batsy slightly moves his cape just before getting struck by the bolt.
- Superman gets grabbed by Captain Marvel and shot by his lightning several times. After the last time he says "Shazam", Superman frees himself from his grip and uses him as a human shield just before lightning could hit him. Superman flies way faster than cloud-to-ground natural lightning.
- Superman's HV could be LS. It burns/cuts/goes in straight lines and gets deflected by a normal mirror. It also matched the Manhunter's blast in speed which could match Grean Lantern's beam. The Manhunters were created by The Guardians as Green Lanterns' predecessor(btw Flash has his own crazy feat in the same episode).
- Wonder Woman deflects several laser beams many times. Flash, Hawkgirl & GLs dodge or block Manhunters' blasts
- Superman turn around before Livewire's blast reaches him. Even when drained of his some power, he could still dodge 2 blasts from Parasite with his & Livewire's power. Flash dodges a point-blank Sinestro ray. Soul Power dodges and counters laser beams.
- Superman, Kyle, John, Static dodge rays from Sinestro. Kyle, John, Sinestro manage to react/block lantern beams. Sinestro casually dodges John/GL ray.
- Superman dodges Captain Atom's radiation based energy. Even when he's somewhat drained and injured by red sun radiation based attacks, he manages to react & block these. He also reflected light based lasers in Solar Power. Keep in even in the beginning of the episode he was severely weakened by red sun radiation. Before his last fight with Luminus (where the speed feat takes place),Hamilton said Superman was almost powerless.
- Batman dodges Shade's darkness based projectile. Supergirl intercepts 1 of Stargirl's beam. Said beam's travel in straight lines and she refers to them as sparkles.
- Hawkgirl blocks 4 of Star Sapphire rays. Batman reacts to them too. Wonder Woman deflects even more of them.
- Superman's heat vision works the same way. Green Lantern, Star Sapphire & Sinestro's beams are already accepted as LS here in the wiki. Stargirl call her rays sparkles. All of these lasers travel in straight lines. Manhunter's blasts scale to both Superman's heat vision and Green Lantern's beams.
